TTEADLEY'S WASHINGTON.-Th commence
Ii ment Of tho Life Of General George Washington
in Graham's Magazine, has given an impulse to the
work, in the way Of new subscribers for which we
were scarcely prepared although we anticipated
popularity and SALE from this feature greater than
from any other single series Of papers that had ever
before appeared in this Magazine.
THE Father Of his Country y is embalmed in the
hearts of the people, and the rising generation will
have their memories stored with fact and illustration
in relation to his character by Headey that Wash
ingtons memory will be kept green in tens of
thousands Of American households and each chapter
Of the work, as it appears monthly in Graham hcre-
after will be looked for with an ayidity Gar creator
than that which has been manifested for Abbott's
Lille of Napoleon" How much better and more wor-
thy Headleys theme is We need not tell to the Amer
lean public.
The work is copyrighted, and cannot appear else
whore 1t is elegantly illustrated with drawings and
ongravings, by the first artists The March part Is
also illustrated by splendid steel engraving Of.
Washington prior to the Revolution" from an 40
credited portrait in the possession Of tho Gusts fam
lily. The illustrations None for this work win cost
the publishers Of Graham over )$5 0OO--s sum
they very cheerfully spend for the very liberal class
Of tho public which sustans this time honored Amer
lean monthly, which, through all changes in Others,
and all composition fair foul keeps its proud posi-
ton at the very head Of our oon literature at once
