GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK FOR 1859.
Increase of Reading Matter!

THE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
l. present many novel features suited to the ad
ncing demands of the public taste. 1t has ever
been the object of the publisher to take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host of iInitators, who have been constantly
foIlowing-"toiling after him in vain''-are suth-
Gent to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ness with winch every new idea that he suggests ia
adopted by others, is sufficient reason fo5 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 1t is sufficient, however,
to say that all the existing popular features of the
LApY's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fami-
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 ia
useless to publish list of numes-suffice it to say
that Il published articles, and have others to
publish from all the best american tDriters, male and
female.
Godey's Lady's Book for January, 1852, willcon-
tain in addition to the most beautiful and numerous
engravings-three Of ,ciich are colored-an addi-
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
mngnif cent periodical in The trorid!
The publisher will give twelve numbers for 1852
that the London Arts Union would be proud of
and their price is ten dollars year.
IT must be observed that the LADY's Book caters
to the taste of the American Ladies. 1t furnishes
them with every thing that can interest Lady
and among others is the following

WAsHiNaToN, January 26, 1852.
Nessrs. LITTLE s. BRowN: think you have laid
the profession under great obligations, in the re-
publication of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country.
The low price at which the volumes are offered,
will enable the bar generally in this way to fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re.
ports, of which many of them have heretofore been
deprived. They will thus have ready access to
the decisons of courts sitting at the fountain
head Of the law, whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systems, more or less modi-
fed, daily administered by the courts Of this
try. And. however modified these systems may
be, it is manifest that those decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation of most Of the
cases arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profe ssion in
this country with the cases IMmEDIATELY AFTER
THE PUBLlCATIoN IN EHGLAND, CoNsIp ERATIoN
OF THE FIRST IMPoRTANcE; for, if the Reports OF
cases decided are of any value, the sooner they
are in the hands of the profession the better.
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commemorate with the merit of the enter
prise.
l am, with great respect, your obcdiont servant
SAMUEL NELSON.

Messrs. LITTLE & BRowN--. Gentlemen: By YOUR
publication of the English Law and Equity Re-
ports, ! think an important benef. is conferred on
the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear to have been thus
far made, their compact and convenient arrange
lnent, their early publication, bringing down The
decisions of all the important Courts to period
far within those of any Court in own coun-
try. together with their cheapnesa, ought to be
sufficient Recommendations to insure their general
use.
With great resp. +, am your obcdient servant
