VOLUME FOR 1863.
THE great SUCCESS of the last volume Of "GRA.
HAMS MAGAZINE" owing to the large increase Of
sterling readiny matter, einboldens the publisher to
attempt more energetic efforts for the new year.
We shall still so conduct the Magazine rs To meet
the wants and wishes OF u very large body Of the
people, vino now begin to look to periodical works
for the corr cct and aiious information, which was
previously sought for in heavy volumes and out Of
the way libraries.
We believe We can so conduct this Magazine, TINT
while IL will meet the wishes of the lovers of ngrec-
able literature, il shall still impart, in scientific ar,i-
Giles, and articles of general utility, information that
viii be valuable and desirable to many. In pursu-
nnce of this purpose, we shall place under the eyes
of our readers not alone articles of high merit, writ.
ten to order by our wcll.known corps OF contribu-
tors, but shall draw upon the first literature of the
Old Wor!d-as success and Increased circulation
may enable W. still further to increase Ue number of
pog,s Of Grohom-so that we shall present the very
best articles that are published abroad, rs well US
those that are written expressly for us at home.
We trust that this effort to extend the usefulness Of
the Magazine, will be met by that continuance of
favor from our readers which has chccrcd US us cd.
itor of the work for more than thirteen years, and
that the Magazine whose foundation was laid in 1926
may, in 1853, be among the abicst, as 1t Is the Oldest
Magazine in America.
The New Volume % Graham commences regular
" with the January number, and we take this oc-
castor, to solicit from single subscribers and clubs,
whose subscriptions expire, n continuance OF their
encouraging company for another year.
NJ PUTTING AND HuMBUG.
The character of "GRAnAM,s MAGA2Iog" Is too
well established, among readers of all classes, to
render necessary the cxtravagant sclf-lnudation
which has become the common stock i'm trade of
every obscure and reckless advanturcr, as well as Of
works whose merit should induce their publishers
to abandon the silly and sickning practice.
GRAHAM MUS STAND OK FALL ON IT'S
OWN MERITS.
The Opinions of its Readers aud the Press of the
United States are confidently relied upon, IA Of far
more value and efficiency than any self praise, aud
to these we leave the work for a just estimation Of
IT. worth.
