GODEY's LADY's BOOK FOR 1859.
Increase OF Reading Matter!

INHE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year Will
l. present many novel features suited to the adj
vancing demands OF the public taste II has ever
been the object Of the publisher Ia take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host OF imitators, who have been constantly
MISUNDERSTANDING after him in vain ARE suth
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ness with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others is sufficient reason for his not
being very explicit and exact in his promises Of
what is yet to come He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow II is sufficient, however,
to say that oil the existing popular features of the
LApY's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fam-
ly Magazine, will be introduced. The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view.
To the Magazines alone we must look for the
illusions OF the master minds Of Literature. 1t 10
useless to publish list of namcs-sufIicc it TO say
that we ave published articles, and have others to

female.
Godcy's Lady's Book for January, 1852, will CON
tain in addition to the most beautiful and numerous
engravings-tkree IF ,ohich are coioyed-an add
tional quantity of reading by American authors.
There is question about the fact and the tens OF
thousands OF notices that we have from the con-
temporary press will establish it, that it is the most
magnificent periodical IN the ,rorid!
The publisher will give twelve numbers for 1852
that the London Arts Union would be proud of,
and their price ia ten dollars year.
II must be observed that the LApY's Book caters
to the taste of the American Ladies. 1t furnishes
