In the department. of Engravings il is we'll know,
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed anv
periodical work ever published in tits or any 9th,
er country. The highest ambition of rival pub
fishers SEEING thus far to have been to maintain a
respectable imitation Of the numerous costly and
beautiful works fart with which the successive
numbers of this journal have been graced. In the
course of the succeeding volumes many importan,

highly finished steel engravings, superior 10 any
thathaye hitherto appeared in periodicals. Among
the pictures that will be engraved for for the vol

by Ingham, Inman, Cole, Thompson, Freeman,
Franquinet, and otler distinguished artists The
American periodicals. have hitherto contained.
save in very few instances, only engravings cop
led from foreign prints. The publisher of Gra-
hams Magazine will be the first to reform the
practice, and to make his work strictly original
in its embellishments as we'll as in its literary con-
tents.
OuR PGRTRAIT GALLERy.-One of the new fea-
lures of the coming volumes acil be the introduce
ton of Portraits of the contributors to Graham's
Magazine, which of course, will include nearly
all the eminent writers of the day. The 35tt vol
ume viii include, from the BURNS of Parker, ohm
SON and others, portraits engraved in the highest
style of the art of Mr. Cooper, Professor Longfel-
low, maria Del Occidente.' Mrs Sigourney, Miss
Sedgwick, Mrs Seba Smith, Mrs Embury and sew
eral otheTs-all from, paintings executed expressly
for the purpose.
The EDIToRIAL DEPARTMENT will continue
to embrace notes literature etc, and re-
views of all new American and foreign works of
general interest or value. The criticisms Of Gra-
hams Magazine are acknowledged in all parts of
the country to be superior in acumen, honesty and
independence to those of any contemporary. In
deed, while a majority of the monthly and quar-
terly journals have become mere advertising medi-
ums for for the booksellers, i'll which every thing
sin print is indiscriminately praised, this period
zeal looked upon as just and discriminating ar
bitter between authors and readers, III which both
have implicit confidence.
