THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY for January is re-
ceived. The table of contents is as attractive as
ever We cannot so well notice the ATLANTIC
or commend it to all readers, as to copy the fol-
lowing, from an exchange:
{" THE ATLANTIC MoNTHLY.-The thirteenth
volume of this able American periodical begins
the January number. Steadily increasing in pop
ularity since its present publishers Messrs. Tick
NOR & FIELDS, assum I'd its management, it has
now circulation greater than that ever reached
by any American magazine of its class, and num-
bers among its regular contributors such names as
LONGFELLOw, HAWTHORNE EMERSON, BRYANT,
AGAssIZ, HOLMES, LOWELL, HARRI1T BEEcuLR
STOWE, WHITTIER, and others scarcely less emf
nent. its stereotyped volumes are a valuable re-
pository of original papers on very great variety
of subjects, and its monthly issues have genuine
freshness and fitness to the hour. II it is good
test, as il certainly Is, Of magazine, that it at
tracts and introduces new writer's, the names Of
HIGGINsoN, of GAIL HAMILTON and of the Ia
mented WINTHROP are evidence enough of what
the ATLANTIC has thus accomplished. Nor can a
better proof be given Of the popular estimation in
which it is held than the demand for a publica-
ton in separate volumes of many of the serial pa.
peFs lHal uTsI dIpedIeu III lls pages sum as Inc
Autocrat,' Elsie Werner Agassiz' Methods of
Study in Natural History The Minister'S Woo
ing Life in the Open Air Agnes of Sorrento,
Out Door Papers, Thoreau's Excursions,
Whittier's In War Time, and others.
/" AS among the chiefest merits of the ATTAIN
TIC, also, let US not forget that it has honestly
held and freely declared its own opinions, on 9th
err than literary questions, snd that while it has
won for itself in literature a position which no
other American magazine his reached, it has con-
sistenty spoken true words for Liberty and Pro-
gress. In the present crisis through which the
country is passing, every intelligent American
should know what influences such minds as those
of the contributors to the ATLANTIC are exerting
upon the progress of humanity"
GoDEY'S LADY's Book for January commences
the year with very fne number. Aside from
the large double Colored Fashion Plate, there are
over Seventy Engravings, Twenty of which are
Whole Page Pictures. One of the Steel Plates,
embracing seven different scenes illustrating the
New Year, is fine indeed. The literary depart
ment Of the magazine is good. This number COM
mences a new tale, entitled Nobody to blame,
by Marion Harland.
