The widespread circulation and ac-
knowlsdged ability of these popular Maya
zines, render long descriptions and elabor-
ate puffery 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 judgment in Lit
erature or taste In Art. Tho pens of our
most accomplished writer's, as well as the
BURNS of the ablest Artists, are enlisted to
eerich and adom their pages-and ALL THAT
is NOW FAMOUS IN LETTERS OR BEAUTIFUL
IN ENGRAvIEGs, in the world of periodical
literature, is owing to the fostering care
and lavish expense of these two prominent
American periodicals.
Their Imitators fail always
In equalling them, for want of public sup
port, and the poor dupes who are led to
subscribe to the hastily born enterprises
which spring up every year to dilude the
public, with promises of wind and words
of sound, find that
these well Established Works
Are, as yet, the only reliable sources to
which they can look for a faithful perform
ance of all contracts entered into with sub
scribers.
The Publishers of "Godey" and ezra
ham" have determined, that for 1858, they
will surpass in the CHEAPNEss, ELEGANCE
and MERIT of their periodicals, all that has
ever been attempted, and as the works are
dissimilar, have resolved to place BOTH
within the reach Of ALL, who desire to keep
thoroughly posted up in the rapidly i'm
proving
Periodical Literature Of the Age.
The best and freshest, both in Literature
and Art, viii be found in their ample and
greatly multiplied pages, and they chat
ienge the world to excel or equal the
forthcoming volumes, either in the beauty
and cost OF their adornments, the merit
and amplitude of literary matter, or in
the cHEAPN IS and accommodating terms
with which they are presented to the A
merican Public.

rha Grumblers Satisfied.

SOME critics kicked up literary dust, or tried TO
do so, because the English Thackery had spoken, in
the outset of one of his late works, somewhat lightly
of WASHINGTON, calling him Mr.. WAsHiNGToS, who
bravely led the American rebels in ;76. The author,
hearing this, writes very handsome explanation,
which the most angry grumbler Of them all must re-
ceiye as amply sufficient. After jeslingly showing
I'm the mistaken construction placed upon his Ian
ouace, lie concludes with the following earnest tribute
to the great American Hero and Patriot:
"As IRONY is dangerous and may hurtthc feelings OF
friends whom would not wish 10 offend, let the say
in perec, faith and gravity, thai think the cause for
which Washington fought entirely just and right, and
the champion the very nobest, puFess, hrarest, and
best of Gods men,

The Violet.

THE North Eastern storm had been rweeping over
the face of nature, with its chirst influences, for
thirty hours. When it had passed BY, We walked
into the garden beside our cottage. The sun was
shining brightly again, but every fower had yielded
to the ,empes,'s blight and their scattered leaves lay
wilted on the damp earth. So We thought, until a
gentle fragrance arose from beneath our feet. We
looked down and there, still blooming freshly and
breathing its sweetness around lay the modest violet,
none the worse for the winters blast. There IL a
lovely virtue in life which answereth 10 this little
flower, and that virtue is Humility We leave the
psrrt ting of the simile TO some fair reader
