THE KNIcKEsBocKER.-The last number OF this
venerable and widely popular periodical appears
upon entirely new and beautiful type in all it's de-
partments; and in its rich and diversified contents
continues TO vindicate its reputation as the most
agreeable and entertaining Magazine published in
the United States When we FIRST started the old
sNew Yorker our friend CLARK had preceded us
as Editor of the KNICKERBocKxR about twelve
month: it has now reached an age greatly beyond
| that Of any American Monthly; a fact which hter-
ally speaks volumes in praise of the manner in
which the work has been conducted. No number
of the X, has been issued under CLARK's super
vision that did not bear ndubitable evidence Of edi
torial care, and anxious thought, and wel-directed
no monthly, ofths country or Europe, 80 thorough
ly edited in the strictest sense OF the term -NeD

sMArHRm ArIcIANs tell US of certain curves called
each other, and yet, when infinitely extended
never to intersect. The KNICKERBocKER, which
has reached an age for Magazine much greater
than hundred years for man, and only to be at
tanned by more marvellous miracle, has perpetu-
ally approached the highest possible point OF interest
and excellence and yet it seems TO have an srcel-
sior for each number seems better than that which
went before. Howit is done our friend CLARK may

has often told us) than any other similar work.
