July was commenced the second volume oil
Putnam's Monthly. Itssuecess, remarkable among
literary undertakings, proves the genuineness oil
the national welcome with which the prospectus
was received, and the manner in which its pro-
mise has been fulfilled.
To have demonstrated that an original Ameri-
can Magazine can command the lively interest and
substantial support of the American Public and
challenge the admiration of foreign criticism, is q
success of which the publishers are proud.
They will spare effort in deserving even
greater favor. They still believe, as they said at
the commencement of the undertaking, that, :" a
popular magazine must amuse, interest, and in
structp They have still unabated ''faith in the
oppnlence of our own native resources" and they
appeal 10 the experience of the last six months 10
show with what reason.
The first volume is now complete, and may be
had neatly bound in cloth, price 50 90.

than has ever before been attained by an original
literary magazine, either in this country or in
Europe.

edgnents TO the press and the public for the ex-
traordinary favor which has thus far attended

surances that every possible effort will be made

zine upon public favor and support. II will con-
tnue 10 present. at the cheapest price, the most
interesting and instructive literary matter original

Il ventor CDR. Kdder) of this economical and
useful instrument deserves the thanks of the gas
consuming community. The saving effected by
the use OF it will be found fully 25 per cent in ev-
cry persons gas bill. II can be so adjusted as to
supply the gas at any desired pressure less than
that OF the street, and when once adjusted the
Regulator will continue TO supply the gas at that
pressure uniformly, without requiring further care
or attention, and independent of all the fuctua-
tons OF the street pressure. An additional adyan-
tage obtained by this Regulator is light of more
agreeable quality, in place of the blush white
color OF the ordinary gas light, occasioned by the
high pressure at which the gas is consumed. As
an evidence OF its practical utility, il is in OPP
Grafton in some of the principal hotels and large
stores in New York city, who all bear favorable
testimony to its value. II has also received the
united commentators of the press.
Hotel proprietors and storekeepers in the city of
Washington and its vicinity, DESTROYS to avail
themselves Of the economser, can obtain all fur
ther information by calling on the subscriber who
has fitted one OF these Regulators up in his store,
