GODEY'S LADY's BOOK FOR 1854.
Increase Of Reading Matterl

T>HE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
l. present many novel features suited to the ad
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 imtators, who have been constantly
MISUNDERSTANDING after him in vain''-are sutfi
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 10 yet to come. He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow. II ia sufficient however
to say that all the existing popular features of the
LADV's BOOK will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fami-
~ 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 is
useless to publish list of names-suffice it to say
that we n.ive published articles and have others to
publish from all the best american ,pTiters male and
female.
Godey's Lady 3 Book for January, 1859, willcon-
tain in addition to the most beautiful and numerous
engrayings-hree Of ,uhich are cOl0red-an addi-
tional quantity of reading by American authors.
There is no question about the fact and the tens OF
thousands OF notices that we have from the con-
temporary press will establish it, that il the most
magnificent periodical in tie toorld!
The publisher will give twelve numbers for 1852
that the London Arts Union would be proud of,
and their price Ia ten dollars year.
