vancing demands Of the public taste. II has ever
been the object OF the publisher TO 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 suffi.
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ness with which every new idea that he suggests ID
adopted by others, is sufficient reason for his not
being very explicit and exact in his promises Of
what ia yet to come. He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow. 1t 10 sufficient, however
to say that oil the existing popular features OF the
LADY's Book will be retained, and many new Ones
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fami-
iy Magazine, will be introduced. The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view
