has been produced to rival the glorious pictures
given in "Graham THE Shepherds Love-

| The series ofelegant steel engravings from the
| buren, of Rawden, Wright, Hatch Il Smill;c
| Jackman WEIGH & Walter, and Others which
have graced Graham's Magazine, have never
been surpassed in the county, and some of them,
of which we may designate 'lhe Fountain"
"'The Captives," and the Signal" have never
been exctllc in Europe. The exquisite line,
and line and siipple engrav wing will be followed

on STEEL.
| These engravings will, for the most part illus-
trate the popular stories of Joseph G. Neal
author of 'CHARcoAL SKETCHES and will be
finished for us in YEAGER's inilnitable style
Mr.. NEAL ranks as the best humorist in Amer
lea, and has long been known as ''American
Boz" His humorous talents are howe er ola
higher order than any yet displayed by Dickens,
and we feel sure that his articles will be hailed
with delight by his countrymen. 1t is time that
| the American people awoke to sense of what
Is due to men OF r,al genius among themselves
IN opposition to the late lawning upon foreign
libellers, and we are determined that Graham's
Magazine shall lead in the holy undertaking, and
by the employment ofthe highest talent ut ber-
al prices, to foster native talent, and to give en-
couragement TO national literature. These
sketches will no doubt be highly popular.
