now receive it. 1t is read. we believe, wherever
run the gold threads of domestic happiness and
true moral refinement, w~hichiare woven 60 thickly
into the strong and course web of our oountry's
industry and energetic prosperity. The Home
journal is the speaker to the hearts of this busy
nation, in the hours given to happiness and
relaxation.
The first number of the new series will be 10.
sued on the first of January next. New subsorib-
ers can be supplied from that date but immedi-
ate Application will be necessary for such as desire
to begin ct the beginning. A home is hardly
complete. we think we may safely venture to say
without the Home Journal, which, besides being
a chronicle OF the times. abounds in intelligence
designed to enliven an American Home. It's ed
itors (GEo. p. MORRIS and N. P. WILLIs) devsts
their entire time, skill and experience, to the task
OF giving, each week, everything worth knowing.
They particularly keep an eye ON the whims and
novelties OF the day. The utmost pains are taken
to present the facts and outlines of all news.
In the literary department, we aim at sketches
and readable criticisms, and in our COMBINATIONS
OF the productions Of the vast newspaper world Of
Europe we endeavor to avoid the tiresome and le-
cal, and transfer to our columns the pick of English
information and brilliancy, while we endeavcr to
select with q true sense of pure morals, true wit,
and genuine humor.
The new feature for the coming year is one
that we have long thought of presenting to our
reader-the CORRESPONDENCE OF tour re,y brilliant
women '1ho send us regularly the GOSSIP OF TIE
; GAY WoRLD. We have grudged exceedingly the
keeping of these most readable matters to ourselves
feeling certain that it was precisely the Society
E gossip which our subscribers required as efferves.
q cence to the otherwise trimming cup-and, with
some difficulty, we have obtained the consent Of
our fair correspondents. 1t was only on one Goa.
dition, however--that the i%ncognitd, for each,
should be strictly preserved. We agreed to this;
L. but, as it was important to distinguish betwesa
their several Letters, we venture to suggest nome
dc plume, such as we thought would be somewh hat
descriptive of their several veins of humor. The
, four ladies will therefore be introduced to the
readers of the next volume of the Home Journal,
as
Mrs. JAPoNIcA JONES,
Mrs. AMELIA RAYrER,
:, Miss LoTsA MUFFIN,
Miss JUsTELLA SUMAoRE.
And from these-the four most brilliant persons
of our city acquaintance-the charming Letters
will be duly forthcoming.
Every one knows how a tea-table or evening
circle is enlivened, by the coming in of an intel
ligent man who knows all the neD ideas dfoat. and
tells them, briefly, gayly. and %of-hand, in the
way OF ordinary conversation. Such a person
gives you the substance of the daily papers, in
three or four sentences-tells you the plan anG
moral Of a new book in a dozen words--gives tn,
essence of assermon, the core Of a public speech
the key to a public character, the spirit of an ar
ticle in a review, the novelty in fashion, the las
. turn in politics-all briefly, and all without detail
or fummory- tearing ii wih you. as material Jo
