i knowledged ability of these popular Maya
zines, render long descriptions and elaborate puff
cry unnecessary. They are known and read in
every corner OF our country, and are as household
words in the mouths of those who pretend to iudg-
ment in Literature or taste in Art. The pens Of
our most accomplished writers, as we'll as the bu-
rims of the abest artists enlisted enrich and
adorn their pages-and all that is now famous in
letters beautiful in engravings, in the world OF
periodical literature is owing to the fostering care
and lavish expense OF these two prominent Anne
Tican periodicals.
Their imitators fail altDays in equaing them, for
want of public support, and the poor dupes who
are led to subscribe to the hastily born enterprises
with promises of wind and words of sound, find
that these tDe established .oorks are yet the only
reliable sources to which they can look for faith
full performance of all contracts entered into with
subscribers
The publishers of Cooley and of Graham have
determined that for 1853 they will surpass in the
cheapness, elegance and merit of their periodicals.
all that has ever been attempted, and the works
are dissmllar, have resolved to place both within
the reach fall, 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
tiplied pages, and they challenge the world TO ex-
Gel or equal the forthcoming volumes either in the
beauty and cost of their adorn ments the merit and
amplitude of literary matter, or in the cheapness
and accommodating terms with which they are pre-
scented to the American public.
