Attractive Feature. The $4,000 Prize Novel
The Gulf Between Them. BY Mrs. Anne s,
~tephens. Authoress of "Fsshion aud Famine"
"The Rejected Wife, &c, &c.
In addition to its attractions; as the FIRST and
most authentic Illustrated PAPER in America, sur
passing oil cthars in the variety, accuracy, All In
terest of the numerous illustrations which it offers,
Frand Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper will begin in
No. ABS dated January 80, 1854, the thrilling and
absorbing novel, "The Gulf Between them," writ
ten by the great novelis'; Mrs. Stephens, whose
Fashion and Famine" had q larger circulation
than any other purely literary novel of cur day.
and was regarded as so mastery a work Of fiction
that it was pot only republished in England, but
was translated into almost every language Of Eu-
rope.
aIity BY the proprietor for the best nov drew
forth no less than two hundred works, ~ ny of
them of great merit. Among these, Mrs. Stephens
novel was selected, as evidently surprising not only
all ethers>o fered, but almost everything hitherto
published. 1t is fully equal to FFashiOn and
Famine" and will be as widely read.
It will be of greater interest, from the fact that
the scene is laid in our land and our own times;
