DUTNAM'S MONTHLY.-On the first Of
IL July was commenced the second volume OF

mise has been fulfilled.
Q 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 a
success of which the publishers are proud,
They viii spare no effort in deserving even
greater favor They still believe, as they said AT
the commencement of the undertaking, that, ga
popular magazine must amuse, interest, and in
struct" They have still unabated faith in the
oppulence of our own native resources" and they
appeal TO the experience of the last six months TO
show with what reason.
The first volume is now complete, and may be
had neatly bound in cloth, price 81 90.

NEW MONTHLY MAGA-

Ill zine has now reached a monthly edition of
over One Hundred and TWENTY-FIVE Thousand
copies, and the demand for it is still increasing
with greater rapidity than ever. This unpara-

printing the work with the requisite rapidity, and
at the same time preserving the typographical elc-
gance by which il has always been distinguished.
II is now elearotyped by new process, which
makes II easy TO print any number Of copies from
the same plates, without in the least impairing the
cearness and beauty of the impression. The
publishers desire 10 repeat their cordial acknowl-
edgments TO the press and the public for the ex-
traordinary favor which has thus far attended
their efforts to interest and instruct the great body
of the American people, and to renew their as
surances that every possible effort will be made
to increase still further the claims of their maea-
zine upon public favor and support. Il will con-
tinue TO present, at,the cheapest price, the most
interesting and instructive literary matter original
and selected, domestic and foreign, in the most
elegant and convenient style, and accompaniedby
the finest pictorial Illustrations which lavish ex-
penditure of money can command. They appeal
with confidence to the past, as guarantee that
their promises for the future will be abundantly
fulfilled

RosPECTUs OF THE UNITED

States Observation-Disclosures the title of the
United States Illustrated, has been commenced
the publication of n great national work. of very
costly aud magnificent description. for which the
liberal patronage of the American public is conf
dently expected. II will appear in parts with such
promptitude that two volumes win be completed
before the close of the present year These vol
umes will be issued simultaneously, one being ex-
cuSively devoted TO eastern and the other 10 wes-
tern subjects. Each part will contain four steel
engravings, from original drawings by eminent
artists representing either some remarkable view
from the splendid landscape scenery of the coun-
try, or some public cdiice, whose architectural
beauty or historical character entities it 10 such
commemoratlon. Ten parts will compose vol
ume. ,...' -... ..s.
The present volume of the western section will
contain among other illustrations views Of the
grand and peculiar scenery of the Mississippi
river from its origin AT Itasca Lake down 10 lis
mouth, below New Orleans. In similar manner
the volume of the eastern section will represent
only such subjects from the sea-board States as
are most striking and truly American.
But II excellence has thus been aimed at in the
engravings, the literary department also will have
every attention bestowed upon H. No expense
has been spared TO render the work in this respect
also national monument. Many of the best and
popular writers of the country are engaged as
regular contributors. and the editorial direction of
the whole has been entrusted 10 the care OF Mr..
Charles A. Dana, whose name is a sufficient guar
antee that the work will be one OF solid merit, as
well of elegance and beauty. Each number
will contain from II TO l6 pages letterpress print
ed in elegant type on splendid 4to paper.
With the last numbers each subscriber or pur-
chaser of the two volumes, will receive TO each
section of the work an allegorc title page exc
| cuted in high style of art, and as premium, a
| magnificent steel engraving 36 by 25 inches, rep
resenting The Battle of Bunker Hill, from Trum-
/ bulls great picture, whose superb execution rem
ders il costly ornament, and whose subject will
| make II dear 10 every American.
1 In the anticipation of vast number OF subscri-
bers, the price of the work will be put at the fol-
| lowing rates, whose cheapncss only the largest
circulation can justify: single numbers, each so
cents; single volume s5; the two volumes, with

TCLECTIc MAGAZINE FOR ,sa.-The

INCLEC1IC MAGAZINE FOR '53.-The
L sphere and the utility of the EcLEcTIc MAGA-
ZINE have become too well defnedto require ex-
planation. Differing inaim from other magazines,
and supplying want which is widely and increas-
ingly felt by more educated and intelligent por-
ton of the community, il fills place which could
be filled in 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
accIstomed almost exclusively to express them
selves, are too numerous to be reprinted, as well
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 il. 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 ncumbrance Of
the local or feeble parts Of any The main 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. 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 lite
rature, ART, or craftsmanship. These plates are
engraved by Mr.. SARTAiN who has no superior in
the striking and effective style of the mezzoiint
TERMs.-The Eclectic Magaz,ae is issued on the

DATENT GAS REGULAToR.-The in.


IL ventor (Dr. Kidder) 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 bin. 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-
tions of the street pressure. An additional advan-
tage obtained by this Regulator is light Of more
agreeable quality, in place of the bluish white
color of the ordinary gas light occasioned by the
high pressure at which the gas is consumed As
evidence of its practical utility, it is in op-
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, desirous TO avail
themselves of the economiser, can obtain all fur
ther information by calling on the subscriber who
has fitted one of these Regulators up in his store,
and will give an illustration of il.
