adorn their pages-and all that is now amous in
letters or bea utful in engravings in the world of
periodical literature, is owing to the fostering
and lavish expense of these two prominent Anne
iTican periodicals.
Their initators fail al,oays in equaliiug them for
want of public support, and the poor dupes who
led to subscribe to the hastily born enterprises
winch sprlng up every year to delude the public,
with promises OF wind and words of sound, find
that these soe established tDorks are as yet the only
reliable sources to which they look for faith

subscribers
The publishers of Cooley and of Graham have
determined that for 1853 they will surpass in the
che1pness, eegance and merit Of their periodicals.
all that has ever been attempted and as the works
are dissimiiar, have resolved to place both within
the reach of all, who desire to keep thoroughly
posted up in the rapidly improving periodical lite
nature Of the age.
The best and freshest, both in Literature and
Art will be found in their ample and greatly muI

beauty and cost of their adornments the merit and
amplitude OF literary matter, in the cheapness
and accommodating terms with which they are pre-
scented to the American public.
