The KNIcKERsocxER.-The last nber OF this
venerable and widely popular periodical appears
upon entirely and beautiful type In all its de-
parments and in its rich and diversificd contents,
continues to vndicate its reputation az the most
agreeable and entertaining Magazine published in
the United States. When we rststarted the old
New Yorker our friend CLARK had preceded us
as Editor of the KsIcxEaBocKER about twelve
| month"; it has now reached an age greatly beyond
that of any American Monthly; fact which liter
ally speaks volumes in praise OF the manner in
which the work has been conducted. No number
of the K has ever been issued under CLARK's super
vision that did not bear indubitabe evidence of ed
torial care and anxious thought, and welldirected
labor enstamped upon its pages. We have known
no monthly, of this country or Europe 30 thorough
ly edited in the strictest sense of the term. 'Neo

sMArHEMATIcIANs tell US of certain curves called
asnptctss, whose popularity Is always to approach
each other, and yet, when infinitely extended,
never to intersect. The KNIcKxRBocKEH, which
has reached an age Tor Magazine much greater
| than hundred years for man, and only 70 be at
tanned by'a more marvellous miracle, has perPetu
ally approached the highest possible point OF interest
and excellence; and yet it seems to have an excel
stor tor each number seems better than that winch
went before. How Is done our friend CLARK may
understand-Dut II u q sealed mystery 70 US. Inere
