YNHE Forty-ninth Volume Of the Kpscscer.
l. booker Magazine will commences with the
number for January, and it is the intention OF
the Publisher to make great additions 70 the
literary merits of the work.
We take it for granted there are but few mag
azine readers in the country who are not Emil-
lar with the authors of st. Ledger. and the
Sparrow Grass, both old contributors to the

announce that they will both write for orr

contribute new and really original Story,
which will appear in every number; and Mr..
kimball will furnish Sketch or Story az Of.
en- as his other duties willpermit.
We have now two contributors not excelled
by any writers in the country, namely, Rev. r.
w. Shelton and Charles G. Leland. The frss
known as our "Up-River Correspondent" has
written series of Letters a part of which have
been issued and extensively sold in beautiful
illustrated volume, and the latter is now writ
ing series of Observations of Mace Sloper,
which delight all who read them. These will
be continued regularly, and Mr.. Shelton wiz
give Sketch or a Letter each month.
We have also several highly accomplished
Lady Contri butors, whose favors will grace our
pages regularly. and whose names we would
be glad to publish, if we were permitted -
do so.
With these and other contributors, aud tho
Table of Mr.. Clark whose long experience has
made him AT fat in his department, we shall
be able to present a monthly literary treat ~

Chicago Tribune for 1857.

THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is bold, earn
i est and straightforward Republican paper
devoted tothe cause of Freedom, Progress. and
Reform. Believing that Liberty. and not
Bondage, is the saving principle ofthe Repub-
lie, it is enlisted into the Republican ranks,
not for a campaign, but during the struggle
between Freedom and Slavery. 1t contends
for the principles declared by the unanimous
vote of the Fathers of the Republic in the Con-
gress of 1887, that Slavery or involuntary SER
vitude shall never exist in territory now free"
and it therefore insists that Kansas shall be Zee
that Slavery shall be excluded ftom all Ma
tional Territory, and that the influence of the
General Government shall be exercised on the
side of Freedom.

THE TRIBUNE AS A NEWSPAPER.

The City of Chicago has become the news
centre, as well as the Commercial emporium,
of the great Northwest. The vast system OF
railroads terminating in it, afford facilities for
gathering intelligence from all directions with
great dispatch, and the Tribune is unrivalsed
in tho West for its enterprise in this department.
Its long and spacious columns are filed with
fresh and entertaining matter, embracing essays,
tales, letters narratives, poetry, politics, and
miscellaneous articles. The Tribune is elevated
in moral Tone and eminently adapted to the
western home circle. and the frcside of intelli-
gent, frecdom-loving families.
THE TRIBUNE AS A COMMERCIAL PAPER.
The Tribune is the best commercial paper in
Chicago. No expense or labor is spared to
make its market reports reliable and satisfac-
tory, not only fer Chicago. but for the princi-
pal eastern markets. The Chicago quotations
are based on actual sales
