Philadelphia Mirror,
IXH£ splendid patronag- awarded to the Philadel
phia Saturday Courier, induces the editors to
commence the publication, under the above title, of a
quarto edition of their populai journal, so long known
as the largest Fam ly Newspaper in th«* United States,
with a list of near TWENTY-SIX THOUSAND
SUBSCRIBERS. The new feature recently introduced
of furnishing their readers with new books of the best
literature of the day, having- proved so eminently suc
cessful, the plan will be continued. Six volumes of
the celebrated writings ot Captain Marryatt, and sixty
five of Mr. Brook’s valuable Letters from Europe, have
already been published without interfering with its
news and miscellaneous reading. The Courier is the
largest and cheapest family newspaper ever issued in
this country containing articles in Literature, Science,
and Arts; Internal Improvement, Agriculture; in
short every variety of topics usually introduced into a
public jornal. Giving full accounts of sales, markets,
and news ot the latest dates.
It is published at the low price of $2. For thissmaii
sum subscribers get valuable and entertaining mailer,
each Week enough io fill a common book of ZUU pt ges,
and equal to 52 volumes a year, and « tntb is estimated
to be read, Weekly, by at least two hundred thousand
People, scattered in all parts of the country, from Maine
to Florida, aud from the sea boatd to the lakes. The
paper has been now so long established as to render it
100 well known to require an extended prospectus,
the publishers, therefore, will do no more than refer to
the two leading daily political papers of opposite poli
tics. The Pennsylvanian says— ‘ The Saturday Cour
er is the largest, and one of the best family new-spapeis
in the Unionthe other, the Enquirer and Daily
Courier, says—“it is the largest jourual published in
Philadelphia, and one of the very beat in the Uni ed
States.” The New York Star says “we kiiuw of
nothing more liberal on the part of .he editors, and no
means more efficacious to draw ut he dormant talents
ot our country, than their unexampled liberality in
offering literary prizes.”
The Albany Mercury of March 16ih, 1836, says—
“the Saturday Courier, is decidedly the be-t Family
Newspaper ever published in this or any other country,
and its value is duly appreciated by the public, if we
may judge from its vast circulation, which exceeds
25,0’>0 per week! Its contents are agreeably varied,
and each number contains more really valuable ‘rea
ding matter’ than ispubii bed in a week in any da.ly
paper 11 (he Union—Ls mammoth dimensions enable
its enterprising proprietors, Messis. Woodward «St
Clarke, ot Pniiudelphia, to re-publisli in its columns,
in the course ol a year, several ol the ost interesting
new worKs that issue from the British press, whicti
cannot tail to give to it a permanent interest, and ren
ter it worthy of preservation. To meet the wishes,
therefore, < f such of their as de.tie io have
their numbers bound, they have d> termined on
issuing an edition ot the Courier in th< quarto form,
which will render it much more coiiv* nicnl for reading
when it is bound in a volume, and thu» greatly cnhanci
its value.’’
THE QUARTO EDU ION.
Under the title of the Philadelphia Mirror, will
commence with the publication ot Hie Pnze Tale,
to which was awarded the prize of SIOO. written by
Miss Leslie, editor of the splendid Annal the Token,
and author of American Literature. A large number
of songs, poems, tales, Rc. offered in competition for the
|SOO dollar premiums, will add value and interest to
the succeeding numbers, which will also be enn< lied
by * story from Miss Sedgewick, author ot Hope
Leslie, The Lmwoods Ac., whose talents have been
so justly and extensively appreciated, both at home
and abroad.
This approved FAMILY NESPAPER is strictly
neutral in religious aud political matters, and the un
compromising opponent of quackery of every kind.

FOR THE RECORDER.
A Gold Region Intrigue.
There is a house in onr town,
XX here all the people resort, as one renown ;
They wink and biink, and then they think
That they will get to sell a drink-
Says Bill to Tom, trade’s as dull as h —l,
b’ays Tc« to Bill, I have come to sell,
Says Bill to Tom, I think Pit will buy,
Says Tom to Bill, then I will go and try.
Then away he went o’er rocks and logs,
To see if Pit would join the lodge ;
So by his wit and cunning lies,
Pit comes over next day and buys.
Then said T<-m to Pit and Bill,
XX hen I am gone you must keep this hill,
Here is Jim and George, and John and Bill
They will assist you in any thing, yes that they will
And at this house you must keep a spy,
For fear some person should pass by,
And if they should, you must cry,
Come to the New Store and buy.
Our goods are cheap and pretty too,
Come in and laok, and buy a few ;
Then said Tam unto his crew,
AVe will commence all things anew.
And as for the owner of this lot,
XX’e need not care for him one jot,
For we can undermine him if we try,
And here is the boy’s that for us will tell a lie.
And if Pit and Bill will go around,
I think they can gain the Brick-yard Town,
And bring them down to Graves’a lot,
Where people dig gold, whether they pay tole
or not.
Then said Pit to Bill, you must stay,
For I have some business over the way,
And in the morning early and bright,
W’c will commence oil things aright.

THE THREE BRIDES.
“Do you see,” said the sexton,
“those three hillocks yonder, side
by side? There sleeps three brides
xvhose history I am about to relate.
Look there, sir on yonder hill, you
may observe a little disolate house,
with a strangling fence in front, and
a few stunted applets eson thcascent
behind it It is sadly out of repair
no x\', and the garden is all overgrown
with xveeds and brambles, and the
whole place has a desolate appear
aace. If the wind xvere high noxvjyou
might hear the old crazy shutters
flapping against the sides, and the
wind tearing the gray shingles of!the
roof. Many years ago, there lived
in that house an old man and his
son, who cultivated the fexv acres of
arable land xvhich belong to it.
i “The father was a self-taught man
deeply versed in the mysteries of
science, and, as he could tell the
name of every flower that blossomed
in the woods &grewiu thegarden, &
used to sit up late of nights at his
books, or reading the mystic story
ol the starry heavens, men thought
he was crazed or bewitched, and a
voided him, and ex en hated him as
the ignorant ever shun the gifted &
enlightened. z\ few there xvere, and
among others the minister and laxv
yer and physician ol the place, xvho
shoxved some xvillingiiess to afford
him countenance, but they soon
dropped his acquaintance, for thev
found the old man somewhat resen
ted and morose, and-mon aver their
vanity xxas xvoumied by the extent of
his knoxviedge. '1 o the minis er he
w ould quote the lat hers and the
Scriptures m the original tongue, &
showed himself well armed with the
weapons ot polemical controversy,
lie astoninshed the lawyer with his
proiound acquaintance with jurispru
dence; and the phjsiciau was sur
prised at the extent of his medical
knoxviedge. bo they all deserted
him, aud the minister, from whom
the oiu man differed in some tr fling ,
k r:r/.s of dcctrine, spoke very slight- 1
ingly of him; and by and by all look
ed upon the self educated farmer
with eyesofaversion. ‘But he little
cared tor that; for he derive his con
solation from loftier resourses, and
in the uniracked paths of science,
found a pleasure as in the pathless
woods! He instructed his son in all his
lore—the languages, literature, histo
ry, philosophy, science, were unfol
ded, one by one, to the enthusiastic
son of the solitary. Years rolled
away, and the old man died. He
died w hen a storm convulsed the face
of nature, when the wind hoxvled a
round his sheltered dwelling, and
the lightning played about the roof;
and though he xvent to heaven in faith
and purity, the vulgar thought and
said that the Ex ile One had claimed
his own in the thunder and commo
tion of the elements. I cannot paint to
you the grief of his son at the be
reavement. —He xvas, for a time, as
one destracted. The minister came
and uttered a fexv cold and holly
phrases in his ear, and a fexv neigh
bors impelled by curiosity to sec
the interior of the old man’s dwell
ing, came to his funeral. With a
proud and lofty look the son stood
above the dust and the dead in the
midst of the band of hypocritical
mourners, xvith a pang at his heart
but a serenity on his brow. He
thanked his friends for their kind
ness, acknowledged their courtesy,
and then strode axvay from the grave
to tsrrry hin grlcl* imtlU pTlx aUV Os TITS
deserted dxvelling,
“He found at first the solitude of
the mansion almost insupportable,
and he paced the echoing floors from
morning till night, in all the agony of
xvo and desolation, vainly imploring
heaven for relief. It came to him
, first in the guise of poetic inspira
tion. He xvrote with a wonderful
ease and power, Page alter page
came from his prolific pen, almost
i without an effort: aud there xvas a
time xvhen he dreamed (vain folly!)
•of immortality. Some of his pro-
i ductions came before the xvorld.
; They were praised and circulated;
. and inquiries xvere set on foot in the
i hope of discovering the author. He,
; i xvrapped himself in the impenetrat
. ■ ble veil of obscurity, listened to the
.'voice of applause, more delicious
|! because it was obtained by stealth.
; From the obscurity of yonder lone
f mansion and from this remote region
to send forth lays xvhich astonished
[ the xvorld, was indeed, a triumph to
f the visionary bard.
i ■ “His thirst for fame was gratified,
I and now he began to yearn for the
. companionship of some sxveet being
> of the ohter sex, to share the laurels
■ he had won, tu w hisper consolation
: in his ear in moments of desponden
cy, and to supply the void xvhich the.

i fut ility of refmd intercourse with a
highly intellectual and beautiful wo
i man, &., as he had chosen the inot-
Ito — what has been done, in ay well be
i d'onc — he did not despair of success.
In this village lived three sisters, all
beautiful and accomplished. Their

■ Madeline. lam far enough past the
age of enthusiasm, but never can I
firget the beauty of those young
igirls. Mary was the youngest, a
fair-haired, more laughing damsel
