Ladies Companion Tor 1837. LITERARY ENTERPRISE! ! Devoted more especially to the interest of the Ladies TERMS THREE DOLLARS A YEAR. THE LADIES COMPANION, a month ly periodical, commenced on the broad grounds of diffusing general information, tar and wide—at a price, which is within the reach ol all classes ol the community. The plan lias succeeded beyond the most sanguine anticipa tions of tlie proprietor. The first nuiuht r was Issued to the public, with only m itith to names of subscribers, and at tins day it boasts of a cir culation nearly double that of any monthly Magazine in America; and is daily increasing, at an average of twenty subscribers. In tin pages of the Ladies Companion, every 1 lass ol readers will find that which will tend to their enjoyment; tales, of every nature, pathetic and humorous; choice essais and sketches by the j best writers of the day ; literary and scientific ntelligence ; copious extracts from American and English Annuals; strictures on the drama ind fine arts ; not ires of all the new publications as they issue from the press; translations from the French, Spanish, Greek, German, 1 Lai. an and Hebrew languages; original and selected poetry; original music and Engravings, with fine wood cuts and patterns ol embroidery ot vvery description, independent of an immense j eariety of miscellaneous articles on every sub- j ject ol the least interest to the most casual : reader, embracing passing events; biogruplii- j 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 j and authors ; view of olden times of the city of gotliam ; Broadway Analyzed; comments on | G lod Society, Ac. Ac. Embellished monthly 1 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 interi st, amusement, or the improvement of the mind in the pages of Un- Ladies Companion, will be wanting on tin 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 tin pages of the Ladies 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 m A merica Negotiations have been commenced with an additional number of popular writers, for orig,- nal contributions for the ensuing year, among them are— E. L. Bulwer Miss Leslie James G. Pereival ft. Shelton Macki •iizie Mrs. E. Lllctt Miss Louisa 11. Medina Leigh Hunt John Neal Sargent Talfourd Mrs Jamieson G P. ft. James Grenville Mi lien Professor Ingraham Mrs. L. II Sigourney Mrs. Ann S. Stevens W G. Si in ms Capt. Marryalt Sheridan Knowles .M ism b. E. Landon Miss Gilman Hull. Mrs. Norton Lady Bh-ssington E. Burke Fisher Edgar A. Poe Miss II F. Gould N C Brooks, A. M Isaac C. Pray, Jr. 11. Hastings Weld ft. ft. Thu teller Mrs. fluids. In conjunction with those who have, hereto fore favored the Ladies Companion with origi nal contributions. It has ever been the aim of the proprietor to inculcate and promote the cause ol morality.— It cannot be denied that the periodical press exercise a decided influence upon the moral and intellectual character; and where that press is uniram.lu lled by mercenary consider ations or vicious principles, its effect must be elevating and reliniug to u community, like thutol America. \\ it ti these views, every tiling operating injuriously to morals or religion have been studiously avoided and not allowed u place i;i the Magazine; for, we hold those men as traitors to their country, who would seek to de Btroy the pure doctrines of virtue and religion, either* by open opposition or secret intrigue In sustaining the literary character of the La dies Companion, the proprietor u ill not routine himself to the mere task of pleasing, without imparting vigor to the nnml; but will endeavor to present both, that which will be attractive to superficial readers, us well as that winch will furnish subjects tor reflection to the stu dent. No work in America presents its sub scribers with such a lnelenge- of invaluable reading as the Ladies Companion, for its ex tremely low price (three dollars a year;) and letters are continually being received from Eu rope. inquiring bow it is possible lor a periodi cal to be issued at sueli a small rate, winch proves its undeniable chums to the support ot the American people, particularly those of tin state ot New \ ork and adjacent ones. It is not generally known to the public that each number of the Ladies Companion con tains more reading than any other Magazine m America ; and its subscription price is two dol lars lc: . than those issued m 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 loth ot each month, stitched m a colored cover and for warded to subscribers out of the citv by the earliest mails, strongly enveloped in double wrappers to prevent lru-te n.

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 grt-ed ; on the second, there is diversity both of opinion and practice. We have newspa pers, magazines, reviews, 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 needed. 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 oi discovery in art and science. But though it be easy to ascertain and express their wants, it is not so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis tance from the emporium ofliterature, engross ing occupations which prevent personal appli cation of even messages to libraries and book sellers, are so many causes to keep people al way lrom the feast of reason and the enjoyment of the covered literary aliment It is the ob ject ot the publishers of the Library to obviate these difficulties, and to enable every individ ual, at a small cost and without any personal effort, to obtain for his own use and that of his favored friends or family, valuable works, com plete, on all the branches of useful and popular literature, and that in a form adapted to the comfort of the reader. The charm of variety, as far as it is cornpati ble with morality and good taste, will be held constantly in view in conducting the Library, to fill the pages of which the current literature of Great Britain, in all its various departments of biography, history, travels, novels and poe- I try, shall be freely put under contribution.— I With perchance occasional exceptions, it is m j 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, as the case may be. YV Inlstthe body of the work will be a reprint, or at times a translation of entire volumes, Un cover will exhibit tlie miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and things, and notices of novelties in literature and the arts throughout the civilized world.— A lull and regular supply of the literary, month ly and hebdomadal journals of Great Britain and Ireland, in addition to home periodicals ol a similar character, cannot fail to provide am ple materials for this part of our work. Tlie resources and extensive correspondence of the publishers are the best guarantee for tin continuance of the enterprize in which tin*) are about to embark, as well as for tlie 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 be fully satisli ed, as the editor of the Library is not a strun ger to tliem, but lias more than once obtumeil their favorable suffrages for his past literan efforts. TERMS. The work will be published in weekly num hers, in stiti-lied 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 tin- expiration of every six months, subscri bers will he furnished with a handsome title page and table of contents. The w hole amount ot matter iuruislictl in a single year, will be e qual lo more than forty volumes of the com mon sized English duodecimo books. The pa per upon which the Library will be printed, will be of the finest quality used for Look wtrk, and of a size admirably adapted for binding.— As the type will be entirely new, and ol a neat appearance, each volume when bound, will lurnish a handsome as well as valuable, ind not cumbrous, addition to the libraries of tluse who patronize flit- work. The price ol the Library will be Five Dullirs per annum, payable in advance. A commission of 20 per cent, will be allowed to agents; and any agent or postmaster, fur nishing live subscribers, and remitting the u mouut ol subscription, shall be entitled to the commission ol 20 per cent, or a copy of tin work for one year.

We timed it, and find that with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it made at the rate of two thousand three hundg red ands xty-eight brick per hour. By mould 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 beautitul brick per day. JOHN SPRINGER, DAVID F. WILSON. Macon, April 14, 1837.

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 four cents a week, and to add. as a piquant seasoning to the dish, a few columns of shorter literary matters, and a summary of the new r s and events of the day. We 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 enougli 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 be 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, 1837, issue a huge sheet, of the size of the largest newspapers of America, but on very superior paper, also,fil ed with books, of the newest and most entertain ing, though, in their several departments of Novels, Tales, Voy ages, Travels, &c., select in their character, joined with reading, sucii as should fill a weekly newspaper. By this meth od, we hope to accomplish a great good ; to en liven and enlighten the lamily 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 of concentration can no farther go.” No book, which appears in Waldie's Quarto Library, will be published in the Omnibus, which will be an entirely distinct periodical. Terms. Waldie’s Literary Omnibus, will be issued every Friday morning, printed on pa per of a quality superior to any other weekly sheet, and of the largest size. It will contain, Ist. Books, the newest and the best that can Ih> procured, equal every week, to a London duodecimo volume, embracing Novels, Travels, Memoirs, &c., and only chargeable with Acres paper postage. 2d. Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices of books, and information from “the world of letters,” of every description. 3d. The new's of the week, concentrated into a small compass, but in a sulticient amount to embrace a knowledge of the principal events, political and miscellaneous, of Europe and A inerica. The price will be TWO DOLLARS to clubs of five subscribers, where the paper islurward ed to one address. The clubs ol two individ uals, FIVE DOLLARS ; single, mail subscrib ers, THREE DOLLARS. The discount on uncurrent money will be charged to the remit ter ; the low price and superior paper, absolute ly prohibit paying a discount. HIT On no condition will a copy ever be sent, until the payment is received in advance. As the arrangements for the prosecution of this great literary undertaking, are all made, and the proprietor has redeemed ail his pledges to a generous public for many years, no tear oi non-fulfilment of the contract can be felt. Ihe Omnibus will be regularly issued, and will contain, in a year, reading matter equal un mount to two volumes of Rees’ Cyclopedia, lor the small sum mentioned above.

(LF Editors throughout the Union and Cana da, will confer a favor, by giving the above one or more conspicuous insertions, and accepting the work for a year as compensation. PROSPECTUS OF Tlie Experiment. IN issuing a Prospectus for the publication ol a paper, the undersigned will depart from a usage more honored in the breach, than in the observance, and make no promises which it is not his design to fulfil. “The Experiment, after 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 for the encouragement inanilested, 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 lour tunes as much matter as it now does. Thus will be afforded greater space for his own lucu orations and those of correspondents, together with Advertisements and judicious selections- It inay not be inappropriate here to 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 < xpenditure, he must hope for increased re ward ; and consequently, the subscription price for the second volume will be One Dollar <n advance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at t ® expiration of the year. This alteration, it be perceived, is not in proportion to the change of size in the paper; the times being hard, wt? are willing to work as low as we can, to save ourselves from debt, to please our patrons and ourselves also. Advertisements, as heretofore at 50 cents pci square for the first insertion, and 25 cents per square for each subsequent insertion. ITr*Those who can conveniently pay in *“* vance, by doing so, will not only save then selves a heavy interest, but enable u», j ■uore alacrity and advantage, to prosecute work. F. J. ROBINSON.
