SPLENDID OFFERS FOR 1868 AND
1857 TOGETHER,

E mike the more ephemeral Magazines Of
u the day, these Periodicals lose little by age.
Hence a full year Of the Nos. with no omissions,
for 1856, may be regarded nearly as valuable as
for 1857. We propose to furnish the two years
at the following Extremely low Raes, viz:
For Blackwood's Magazine, 46O
For any one Review, A 90
For any two Reviews; 8 90
For Blackwood and one Review, 90
For Blackwood and the two Reviews, 8 90
For three Reviews, q 90
For Blackwood and three Reviews, I2 90
For the four Reviews IL 60
For Blackwood and the four Reviews, ID 90
To avoid fractions, S. may be RENTED for
Blackwood. for which we will forward that
work for both years, post paid.
N. B.-The price in Great Britain Of the five
Periodicals above named is about S3l 'per an
mum.
AZ "e shall never again be likely to offer such
Inducements as those here presented.
NOlc is the time to Subscribed
" B.-Remittances must, in all cases, be made
direct TO the Publishers, for at these prices no
commission can be allowed to Agents.
