i Forty-Sccond Volume Of The knickerbock-

Since the price of subscription has been re-
duced from five TO three dollars a year, the
circulation Of the KSIcKrRBocKER has been
increased nearly four TO one. In many places

and through the year it has been steadily in
creasing. II is now offered as cheap as any
of the Magazines, all things considered. In
stead of making new and prodigious promises,
we submit Il few extracts from notices of late
numbers, which we might extend to a number
OF pages.

wild tcmpests are sweeping DER our hillside
village in these chill winter hours, and is
drear and desolate without, we ask for ne
more agreeable companion than the 'KNGCK'
ERBocKER' for while its contents impair
valuable information, its salltes OF genuine
wit are a sovereign specific for all fits OF th'
blues or attacks of the horrors, and tim
passes merrily on.'-Democrat, Doylestown

"The -KNGcKERBocKER has been and will b,
a fact of its own a genuine living thing, al
