MAGAZINE FOR ,ss.-The

llNCLECHIC MAGAZlNE FOR '53.--The
La sphere and the utility of the EcLEcTIc MAGA-
ZINE have become TOO well defined to require ex-
PLANTATION. Differing in aim from other magazines,
and supplying want which is widely and increas-
ingly felt by more educated and intelligent por-
ton of the community, it fills place which could
be filled in no other method than by the principle
OF selection which il adopts. The great reviews
and magazines of Great Britain and the Continent,
through which the leading minds of the age are
accustomed, almost exclusively, TO express them
selves, are too numerous to be reprinted as well
as too costly to be imported by the general reader
They contain, likewise, much with their desirable
articles, that has but temporary local interest,
and which is worth to the American reader neither
the price nor time required TO peruse It.. To select
from the whole field of journalism all that is really
valuable, both the graver dissertations and discus
sions of the reviews, and the lighter and more
versatile contents of the magazines is the pur-
pose of the ECLECTIC. The best parts of all are
thus secured, without the cost or incumbrance Of
the local or feeble parts of any. Their portion
Of the ECLECTIC will continue TO be composed of
the great and eloquent articles of the reviews;
while everything valuable or brilliant in all other
periodical issues, particularly of Great Britain
will be carefully presented. A richer and more
valuable aggregate will thus be furnished than the
contents of any single periodical could afford.
Embellishments Of the highest order of subject
and engraving will occupy each number. Among
these will be richly engraved portraits of the most
distinguished living characters, especially in lte-
nature, art, or craftsmanship. These plates are
engraved by Mr.. SARTAIN, who has no superior in
the striking and effective style Of the mezzotint
TERMs--The Eclectic Magazine is issued on the
first OF every month, in numbers Of IA large Svo
pages each, on fine paper, making THREE VOLUMES
year with title pages and indexes. Price IS per
year, if paid strictly in advance otherwise So.

! A DIPLOMAT IN A "F1X"
The Washington cores pondent Of the New
York Daily Times writing under date Of June
25th, relates the following ludcrous accident
az happening to the representative Of all the
Russiss at the United States.
The accident which occurred yesterday to
NJ. de Bodisco, the Russian Minister, was ex.
ceedngly ludcrous to the beholders, as s,on as
1t was ascerta ned that he had no injury from
the mshap. He was riding down the avenue,
when one wheel of his cabrolet came off,
Frightening his spirited horse, who began to
jump and plunge in very regular and me ethod-
ical manner, though ie'surely rehearsing
some fanciful steps in a horse galIopade. Pret-
ty soon, simultaneously with sudden plunge,
out came the Minister'S hat, little later his
wig, and soon after NJ B disco himself, who
was thrown full length into the drt-fortunate-
ly without injury. The horse, by another
plunge, got rid OF his negro driver, and started
off at full speed dashing down the line ofhacks
standing in front Of Browns Hotel, crushing
one Of them pretty thoroughly, and breaking
another badly BY the time the spectators had
witnessed the latter part Of this scene, NJ Bo-
disco had regained his feet, and started in pur.
suit OF his wig, which in his embarrassment,
he stuck on his head, without noticing that it
was well filled with small chips, and any amount
of dust and dirt not otordox with the peru.
quiers. His servant standing at some little dis-
lance, some what the worse for the fright, eye-
ing his master with bewildered sort Of stare,
and M. BodIsco, himself, with his bare, disord- |
cred and dusty wig-both standing tor the IN
slant in the middle of the street. and neither |
seeming to understand exactly what was to
come next-formed an irressstibly iudtcrous
ta6teax. A moment later assistance was at
hand, and the revoutionized plenipotentary re-
Tired from the scene Of hia discontinue. 1t is
really wonderful that he escaped serious, and
even fal al Injuries

DRY G0OI)S

In speaking of the coming fall trade, in con-
nection with the import of Continental Dry
Goods, the New York Journal Of Commerce
says:
"Ifthe peace Of the world remain undstur-
bed, the fall trade will be larger than ever be-
fore known. The country is rich in means Of
payment, and all classes in the interior have
been enjoying unusual prosperity. The cotton
crop has been large, and has been sold at high
rate. The yield Of breadstutfs has also been
large, and the demand has been active without
any serious depression in prices. The various
projects for internal Improvements have distrib-
uted large AMOUNT Of cash capital, so that pay
men;s are made with UNIV onted promplness.-
With all these reasons for large demand for
goods, there must be some serious disturbing
cause, not now calculated upon, if the trade
be not unusually active. In providing for the
distribution of such immense amount of
goods however, it will be impossible to hit the
exact quantity which will be wanted of each,
and some will be too abundant VIII lie others will
be scarce. 4 shrewd observer Of the course of
foreign trade predicts that there will be no more
scarce articles during the progress Of the CO.
ming seasons business, here, than has been
known for several yeaas. Their must also be
many serious losses. Styles not exactly adop.
ted TO the popular taste will be sold at an unn-
sual discount, as the public, from causes noted,
will be in humor 10 buy what they want, and
reject what they dislike, with less regard
than ever to the difference in price. Meantime
the imports are arriving thirty days earlier than
usual. Tne ports are crowded on the other side
with packages waiting for shipment, and the
receipts here are lar in advance OF former sea-
sons. 1t cannot be expected Tint this rate OF
increase will hold out through the season.
There was nothing to delay the Transmission Of
orders, and every buyer has stipulated Tor early
delivery
