Nineteen hundred years ago, when Rome
had conquered the principle part of the world
and freely admitted supplys from Syria and
Egypt into Italy, the industry of her own Cit
liens were paralyzed by the withdrawal of
that protection to which it was fairly entitled
poverty and want reigned where plenty had
prevailed, and race of men the bravest and
freest that ever lived, were speedily convert
ed into the subjects of a despot. And SO
graveiy did Tacitus, one of the gravest and
most philosophical of her historians, feel the
degradation Of supplying her legions from
the industry of foreign countries, that he has
announced with an OATH of vexation and
disgust, that ~deplorable change in her con-
dition. Let us take warning from the ex-
amples of other nations. Let US guard and
protect the real, not merely the nominal in
dependence ofthe county. The ever Ter
vent aspirations from every true American
heart will be for the preservation of that in
dependence. "Esto pertetia." MAY 1T BE

situated for a profitable operation in the
manufacture Of salt, being convenient to

quantity just at hand.
With these repeated evidences Of the
abundance Of salt wafer in our vicinity,

Oed the enviable reputation Of being sS.
best periodicalin the United STATES, both n ,bo
quality and number ofits Embellishments. and
in the tone Of its literary matter. IL is the
cheapest as well as the best. For the year
lS43, the publisher has given about 100 pages
more original feeading matter than snv Of ~
contemporaries, and more original steel a.
cravings in addition to the fashion plates saa
coored flowers. The cheapness and meritaof 4

parent, which has made an outlay Of over
SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS GREAT
~ Err THAN OTHERS,
and an addition of engra wings over other msv,-
zines that would embsilish the eostlies, snp,sSl
The publisher is, however, satisfied that notks
ing but real excellence can maintain the h;sh
position that his periodical has attajned in he
United States, and, as the taste improves ana
extends for good works, that nothing Of a hum
bug order will be tolerated.
The publisher does not hesitate 10 ssv. The,
he defes all competition with Grahams Mac.
zine for 1874. His immsnsE subscription Iu.
the merit and number of his contributors, tbe
high order of the engravere engaged, the number
and variety of elegant plates already purchased

qis capital and position give him to prosecute
the work, render any efforts of rivalry a matter
| of Eidieule. Every number of the work iesued
bears with it the evidence of its triumrbsn
success, and establishes the impossibility of sue
cessful competition.
