Ladies Companion tor 1837. LITERARY ENTERPRISE!! Devoted more especially to the interest of the Ladies! TERMS THREE DOLLARS A YEAR. TH E LADIES COMPANION, a month ly periodical, commenced on the broad ground* of diffusing general information, far and wide — at a price, which is within the reach of all classes of the community. The plan lias succeeded beyond the most sanguine anticipa tions of the proprietor. The first number was issued to the public, with only seventeen names of subscribers, and at this day it boasts of a cir culation nearly double that of any monthly Magazine tn America ; and is daily increasing, at an average of twenty subscribers. In the | pages of the Ladies Companion, every class ol j readers will find that which will tend to their ■ enjoyment; tales, of every nature, pathetic and humorous; choice essays and sketches by the! best writers of the day ; literary and scientific i intelligence; copious extracts from American | aud English Annuals; strictures on the drama and fine arts ; notices of all the new publications as they issue from the press; translations troin the French, Spanish, Greek, German, Italian and Hebrew languages; original and selected poetry ; original music and Engravings, with fine wood cuts and patterns ot embroidery ot every description, independent of an immense variety ol'miscellaneous articles on every sub ject of the least interest to the most casual reader, embracing passing events; biographi cal sketches of noted individuals ; discoveries in the arts and sciences, Ac. Ac. Ac.; accounts of colleges and American institutions; sketches | from scenery of our own country ; public as semblies, painting, popular lectures, speakers and authors; view of olden times of the city ol gothain ; Broadway Analyzed; comments on Good Society, Ac. Ac. Embellished monthly with a splendid Steel Engraving; popular mu sic—original and selected ; and Embroidery for the working of lace patterns. In short nothing required to insure interest, amusement, or the improvement of the mind in the pages of the Ladies Companion, will be wanting on the part of the proprietor, and it will be— “With sweetest flowers enrich'd, From various gardens cull'd with care.’’ Articles from the pens of the first authors in either Europe or America have appeared in the pages of the Ludies Companion, during the two last volumes, without reference to expense, too numerous to name, which stamps it the cheap est and most diversified periodical issued in A merica Negotiations have been commenced with an additional number of popular writers, for origi nal contributions for the ensuing year, among them are— W. G. Simms Capt. Marryatt Sheridan Knowles Miss L. E. Lundon Miss Gilman Hon. Mrs. Norton Lady Blessinglou E. Burke Fisher Edgar A. Foe Miss 11. F. Gould N. C. Brooks, A. M. Isaac C. Fray, Jr. 11.

James Grenville Mellen Professor Ingraham Mrs. L. II Sigofirney Mrs. Ann S. Stevens In conjunction with those who have, hereto loro favored the Ladies Companion with origi nal contributions. It has ever been the aim of the proprietor to inculcate and promote the cause ot morality.— It cannot be denied that the periodical press exercise a decided influence upon the moral aid intellectual character; and where that press is untrammelled by mercenary consider ations or vicious principles, its effect must, he elevating aud refining to a community', like that of America. With these views, everything operating injuriously to morals or religion have been studiously avoided and not allowed a place in the Magazine; for, we hold those men as traitors to their country', who would seek to de stroy the pure doctrines of virtue and religion, either by open opposition or secret intrigue. In sustaining tlie literary character of the La dies Companion, the proprietor will not confine himself to the mere task of pleasing, without imparting vigor to the mind ; hut will endeavor to present both, that which will be attractive to superficial readers, as well as that which will furnish subjects lor reflection to the stu dent. No work in America presents its sub scribers with sucli a uielengc of invaluable reading as the Ladies Companion, for its ex treinely low price (three dollars a year ;) and letters are continually being received from Eu rope, inquiring how it is possible for a periodi cal to he issued at such a small rate, which proves its undeniable claims to the support of the American people, particularly those of the state of New York and adjacent ones. H is not generally known to the public that each number of the Ladies Companion con tains more reading than any other Magazine in America; and its subscription price is two dol lars less than those issued in New York. A single page contains more than two pages ol the other Magazines, and some of them three. The terms are three dollars a year, payable in advance, and no subscription taken for less than one year. It is published on the 15th ot each month, stitched in a colored cover and for warded to subscribers out of the city by the earliest mails, strongly enveloped in double wrappers to prevent friction.

It was one of the great objects of “Waldie’s Library,” “to make good reading cheaper, and to tiring Literature to every mans door.” This object has been accomplished ; we have given to hooks w'ings, and they have flown to the up permost parts of our vast continent, carrying society to the secluded, occupation to the lite rary, information to all. We now propose still further to reduce prices, and render tire access to a literary banquet, more than two fold ac cessible ; we gave, and shall continue to give, in the quarto library, a volume weekly for two cents a day ; we now propose to give a volume, in the same period, for less than Jour cents a week, and to add, as a piquant seasoning to tlie dish, a few columns of shorter literary matters, and a summary of the news and events of the day. Wo know, by experience and calcula tion, that we can go still further in the matter of reduction, and we feel, that there is still verge enough for us to aim at offering to an increasing literary appetite, that mental food which it craves. The Select Circulating Library, now as ever so great a favorite, will continue to make its weekly visits, and to lie issued in a form lor binding and preservation, and its price and ■form will remain the same. But we shall, in the first week of January, li-37, issue a huge sheet, of the size of the largest newspapers of America, hut on very superior paper, also .Jill eil with books, of the newest and most entertain ing, though, in their several departments ol Novels, Tales, Voyages,Travels, Ac., select in their character, joined with reading, such us should till a weekly newspaper. By this meth od, we hope to accomplish a great good; to en liven and enlighten the family circle, and to give to it,.at at expense which shall be no con sideration to any. a mass of reading, that, in book form, would alarm the pockets of the pru dent, and to do it in a manner that the most sceptical shall acknowledge “ the power ot concentration can no farther go.” No hook, which appears in Wuldie’s Quarto Library, will be published in the Omnibus, which will be an entirely distinct periodical.

PROSPECTIS OF Tti e lb xi» c r i m c u I. IN issuing a Prospectus for the publication of a paper, the undersigned will depart Irom a usage more honored in the breach, than in the observance, and make no promises which it is not his design to fulfil. “Tin: Experiment,” alter a trial of almost 12 months, has not failed in recuring for the Editor, the attention and pat sonage desired ; and it is confidently believed, in rendering to subscribers, at least an equiva lent for the pittance they contributed towards its support. Gratified tor the encouragement manifested, desirous of making his little paper worthy the patronage of an enlightened and generous public, the subscriber has determined to enlarge it to nearly quadruple the present dimensions, so that it will contain nearly four times as much matter as it now does. Thus will he afforded greater space for his own lucu brations and those of correspondents, together with Advertisements and judicious selections. It may not he inappropriate hereto remark, that, for want of room, some of the best communica tions have been excluded, and occasionally in teresting matter, difficult to condense within so small a compass. With increased labor and expenditure, he must hope for increased re ward; and consequently. the subscription price for tlve second volume will be One Dollar 111 i advance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at the ( expiration of the year.

TO say that this is a reading age, implies a desire for instruction, and the means to gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a greed ; on the second, there is diversity botli °f opinion and practice. We have newspa pers, magazines, review's, in fine, pamphlets of all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have severally their classes of readers and support ers. And yet copious as are these means ol intellectual supply, more are still heeded. In addition to the reviews of the day and passing notices of books, the people in large numbers, in all parts of our great republic crave the pos session of the books themselves, and details, beyond mere passing allusion, of the progress of discovery in art and science. But though it he easy to ascertain and express their wants, it is not so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis tance from the emporium of literature, engross ing occupations which prevent personal appli cation ol even messages to libraries and book sellers, are so many causes to keep people a way from the feast of reason and the enjoyment ol the covered literary aliment It is the ob ject of the publishers of the Library to obviate these difficulties, and to enable every individ ual, at a small cost and without any personal efiort, to obtain for his own use and that of his favored friends or family, valuable works, com plete, on all the brandies of useful and popular literature, and that in a form adapted to the comfort of the reader. The charm of variety, as fur as it is compati hie with morality and good taste, will be held constantly in view in conducting the Library, to fill the pages of which the current literature ol Great Britain, in all its various departments ol biography, history, travels, novels and poe try, shall be freely put under contribution.— \\ i lll perchance occasional exceptions, it is in tended to give entire the work which shall be selected for publication. When circumstances authorize the measure, recourse will be had to the literary stores of Continental Europe, and translations made from French, Italian or Ger man, ns the ease may be. Whilst the body of the work will be a reprint, or at times a translation of entire volumes, the cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and things, and notices of novelties in literature and the ai ts throughout the civilized world.— A full and regular supply of the literary, month ly and hebdomadal journals of Great Britain and Ireland, in addition to home periodicals of a similar character, cannot fail to provide am ple materials for this part of our work. The and extensive correspondence of the publishers are the best guarantee for the continuance of the enlerprize in which they are about to embark, as well as for the abun dance of the materials to give it value in the eyes of the public. As far as judicious selec tion and arrangement are concerned, readers will it is hoped, have reason to he fully satisfi ed, as the editor of the Library is not a stran ger to them, hut has more than once obtained their favorable suffrages for his past literary efforts. TERMS. The work will he published in weekly muu hers, in stitched covers, each number contain ing twenty imperial octavo pages, with double columns, making two volumes annually, ol more than 52(1 octavo pages, each volume ; and at the expiration of every six months, subscri bers will he furnished with a handsome title page and table of contents. The whole amount of matter furnished in a single year, will he e qual to more than forty volumes of the com mon sized English duodecimo hooks. The pn per upon which the Library will he printed, will be of the finest quality used for book work, and of a size admirably adapted for binding.— As the type will he entirely new, and of a neat appearance, each volume when hound, will furnish a handsome us well as valuable, and not cumbrous, addition to the libraries of those who patronize the work. The price of the Library will be Five Dollars per annum, payable in advance. A commission of 20 per cent, will he allowed to agents; and any agent or postmaster, fur nishing five subscribers, and remitting the a ■nount of subscription, shall be entitled to the commission of 20 per cent, or a copy of the work for one year.

IT cannot be denied that the present state ol our country demands peculiar and well di rected activity on the part of the press to make known the features of the various topics which are now agitating the various portions of the national confederacy. To supply,-at a low price, the inland towns with information, at a little delay only, after it has been received in the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should in the end reward such persons as exert their ability for the successful furtherance of this ob ject. ' The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston Daily Herald, convinced ot' the importance oi a carefully conducted press to disseminate in formation throughout tlie country, some weeks since issued the first number of the Semi Weekly Hkk.uii ami Stak, which they have found to be suitable to the wants of the inland community, as it furnishes over one hundred newspapers in a year, at the very low price ol two dollars. This paper is made up from the Daily Herald with such additional matter, in the shape of stories, legends, poetry, statements of the markets, and sucli information respecting sales as may be deemed advantageous to the yeomanry of the land. The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will he found to be in the fact that while it is noj engaged in party polities, it reserves to itself the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on every subject which concerns the weal of the whole country—and summons to aid, besides the constant supervision of the Editors, valua ble assistants, who are industriously and hour ly exerting themselves to give strength and a bility to their various departments. The bletik'itS ;.ud Star is published every Twa day and Friday morning, and mailed on the night previous in order to ensure its speedy transmission bv the mails. The price is Two Dollars a year payable in advance ; $2,25 in three months; $2.50 in six months ; $3 at the end of the year. The best method to ensure the reception of the paper is to enclose $2 in a letter addressed to the Pro prietors. HARRINGTON »A CO. Boston, 1537. SIO lit*ward.

We timed it, and find that with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it made at the rate of tw'o thousand three bund red and sixty-eight brick per hour. By mould- I ing ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn ; out twenty-three thousand six hundred per day. It requires six boys to bear off, and four to sand | the moulds, Ac.—together with four grown ! men. Thus fourteen hands are sufficient to make the above named quantity of the most ! beautiful brick per day. JOHN SPRINGER, DAVID F. WILSON. Macon, April 14, 1837.

By re quest I timed the machine for half ail hour ; the result of that trial shows that with 14 hands the machine will turnout of beautiful and well tempered brick, 2,308 in one hour, or about 40 to the minute.
