LIFE and TR V Ell,
RY BAYARD TAYLOR,

the inltlatory article being entitled
The First Journey L ever made,'
which is considered by the author-as it un-
questionably will be by the pubic-to be his
most interesting adventure since the outset
of the Great American Traveller and cannot
fail to be of interest to all. These delight
full articles will be beautifully illustrated with
original designs, in the highest style of the
art, portlaying the scenes and characters de-
scribed in the most graphic manner.
This new feature is a most valuable and
instructive one, suited to both young and old,
and will render The NeW York Mercury
worthy of leading place, as the most re-
fined and elegant of all family papers.
Since the first announcement Of our en-
gagement with Mr.. TAYLOR, we have re-
ceiyed flood of inquiries from all parts OF
the Union. relative to the enterprise, show
ing that public expectation is on tip-toe TO
learn the particulars regarding the charac-
ter of his contributions. AS it is Impossible
for us to answer these in detail, we can only
refer our friends and correspondents to the
New York Mercury for April 30.
where the first of these sparkling and popu-
lar sketches will be found.
As no other American has ever Travelled
so extensively as BAyARD TAYLOR, and no
other traveller can see things with the eyes
of America, we need not further eulogize the
value of these emanatons of his mind and
observation, to the reading public. 1t IS sui
ficient to say that they will greatly enhance
the high character that the Mercury has ev-
er maintained, and that has heretofore rest
ed upon many causes, some of the most i'm
portant of which may be summed uPas follows:
The Mercury employs more literary talent
than any other paper.
The Mercury pays more, and higher prl-
ces for that talent than any other psper.
The Mercury is constantly announcing
new, startling, and brilliant additions to It's

THE SWAMP FOX"

VI, 10 HC was "CdRSu,
THE SWAMP FOX"
from the immense ingenuity of his stratagems
and devices for misleading and deciving the
enemy, his thorough knowledge of the woods,
forests, fields, and swamps of his native re-
gion, where he and his gallant band were
perfectly at home, while their enemies be-
came lost and bewidered in the labyrinthine
mazes of underground and morass.
The story above announced is true reflex
of those scenes and times. and its talented
author has most wildly portrayed, therein,
the many exciting incidents and accidents of
a tenacious and indefatigabe struggle for
Liberty, pursued under the most adverse cir
cumstances. Every chapter is replete with
exciting and romantic interest; historically
accurate, but with sparkling web of poetry
woven through it, which makes it at once a
brilliant story and veracious record. The
strongly-written descriptions of events-the
ambuscade-the sudden sortie-the night at
tack-the wild charge and repulse--are all
wonderful as examples of word-painting, and
equally true to the actual facts.
In addition to these scenes of heroism and
lofty daring, the SWamp For is not without
the gentle charm of a love-story, for the work
ing and effects of the tender passion are de-
picted in its pages, as truely and artistically
as the sterner emotions, rendering the tale
a perfect picture of life and character in the
Days of the Revolution, which cannot fail
to appeal TO the admiration, and crafty the
taste Of every reader who has spark of true
patriotism in his SOUL
The peculiar power and interest with which
the gifted author, GEO. ALBANY, ESQ.,, de-
scribes the thrilling period, is a guarantee of
the excellence of this truely magnificent
Historical Romance. The vivid delneaton
of character, the depth of thought, the fas-
cination of style, the picturesque beauty of
description, and, in a word, the power flan-
guage he commands, all combine to render
him one one of the most brilliant writers of
the age. while his great appreciation of and
sympathy with the pioneers in the cause OF
universal liberty give him grasp of Reyo-
lutionary subjects possessed by very few 9TH
ers. This has enabled him, in the Scamp
For, to exhibit the life and adventures of
MARION AND HIS MEN
as they really were, and to do fit homage to
that deliberate valor, that unyielding patriot
ism, which, in few noble spirits, defying
danger, and above the scenes of privation,
could keep alive the sacred fires of liberty in
the thick swamps and dense and gloomy for
ests-asking nothing, yielding nothing, and
only leaving the field the better to re-enter
it for the combaD
We take to ourselves some credit, for hav-
ing secured for our columns the chefs d'euU-
res OF this masters pen, but We inteded to
give the
New York Mercury
a still higher prestige than ever. We be-
lieve it is already the best and largest story
paper in the world, and we contemplate ma
king it better and better, with every success
sive number, in spite of all expense and op-
position.
