THE NEW VOLUME, To be comnens
ced on the First January 1850, will comprise
many important improvements, which, it 10
believed, will render the Magazine one Of
the best Periodicals published in the coun-
try, as it certainly is the cheapest. Among
these improvements will be new and beautis
ful type, fine calendered paper, a higher Or
der OF illustrations than those heretofore given
and contributions from some Of the ablest
writers in America. 1t 10 the aim of the
Proprietor to publish a Popular Magazine;
adapted to the wants of all classes of reading
people i'll the Republic, which shall he both
instructive and amusing and free alike
from the grossness which characterized much
of the cheap literature of the day, and from
the vapidity of the so-called "Ladies Maga,
zines" The Illustrations will consist of Or
iginal Drawings engraved on wood by tho
best Artists. i -t
PORTRAITS Of remarkable Persons and
rie,cs Of remarkable Places, illustrated by pen
and pencil. A strict revision will be exer-
cised that no improper article, or word, shall
ever be admitted, SO hat it may be safely
taken by persons of the utmost refinement,
and read at the fireside for the amusement
or instruction of the family circle.
The Review department of the Magazine
will contain brief critical notices of all the
new publications of the day, and will form q
complete chronicle of current literature.
From the business and literary connex7
ions already established, the best assistance
that the country can afford will be secured

and nothing will be wanting that ample pc
cuniary resources and watchlul industry can
obtain to make the Magazine the LEADING
LITERARY PERIODICAL Of AMERICA.
The extremely low rate ut which it is pub
lishcd precludes the hope " r-ct,t; except
from a circulation greater than that which
any literary periodical has ever yet attained;
but, with the new avenues daily opening for
the circulation of works of merit; the con-
stantly increasing population of the country /;
the cheapness of the Magazine, and the SUI
p%eriority of its literary and artistic attractions
to those of any other work now issued; the
proprietor fearlessly engages in an enterprise
which will be sure TO benefit the public if it
should not enrich himscls. A'i'
