THE LADIES COMPANION, a month.
Ijr periodical, commenced on the broad
grounds of diffusing general information, far
end wide—at a price, which is within the reach
of all classes of the community- The plan has
'succeeded beyond the most sanguine anticipa

issued to the public, with only seventeen names

Articles from the pens of the first authors in
either Europe or America have appeared in the
pages of (he Ladies Companion, during the two
last volumes, without reference to expense, too
numerous to name, w hich stamps it the cheap
est and most diversified periodical issued in A

Negotiations have been commenced with an

It lias ever been the aim of tin - proprietor to ;
inculcate and promote Ihe cause ol morality .
It cannot be denied that the periodical press
exorcise a decided influence upon the moral
and intellectual character; and where that
press is untrammelled by mercenary consider
ations or vicious pnuc.plcs, its efl'eet must he
elevating and relining to a community , like
that of America. Willi these views,
operating injuriously to murals or religion have
been studiously avoided and not allowed a place !
• n 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 the literary character of the La
‘‘•its Companion, the proprietor will not confine
himself to the mere task of pleasing, without
imparting vigor to the nund ; but will endeavor ;
to present both, that w hich will be attractive j
to superficial readers, as well as that which
will furnish subjects for reflection to the stu
dent. No work in America presents its sub
scrmers with such a melenge of invaluable
reading as the Ladies Companion, for its ex
tremelv low price (three ib liars u y car ;) and
letters are continually being received from Eu
rope, inquiring how it is passable lor a periodi
cal to be issued at such a small rate, which
proves its ur.dcn able claims to the support ot
the American people, particularly those of tin
state of New Y 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 less than those issued ill New \ ork. A
single page contains more than two pages ol
the other .Mag:t7.ie-s,aiid some of them three.
The terms are three dollars a year, pay able
in advance, and no subscription taken for less
than one year. It is published on the loth ot
each month, stitched in a colored cover and for
warded to subscribers out of the city by the
earliest frails, strongly enveloped in double

HAVING received a number of communi
cations from individuals, making enquir
ies respecting my Brick Machine, invented by
Calvin Waterman, and now in successful ope
ration in this place, 1 take this method of an
sw-er ng them—l invite all who feel disposed
to purchase rights, to come and sec the opera
tion of the machine, and if there be any one
who says he is disappointed in his expectations,
I bind myself to pay the expenses of his trip-
I do not expect to sell a right to any one with

order to afford an idea of its value, I annex the
following certificates, one of them signed by
two ol the most experienced brick masons in
the Southern States. In iny absence from

T. L. SMITH.
We having witnessed the performance of Mr
T. L. Smith’s new Brick Machine, invented by
Calvin Waterman, now m operation in th.s
place, takeqjleasure in recommending it to the
public. The fact of its performance is its best
recommendation. We timed it. and find that
with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it
made at the rate of two thousand three hund
red and sixty-eight brick per hour. By mould
ing tcji hours in a day, it would therefore turn
out twenty-thr* e thousand six hundred per day.
Ft requires s x hoys to bear of}', 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.

I have witnessed the performance of Mr T '
L. Sin tli s new Brick-making Machine, just j
put into operation in th.s place: and have no |
hesitation in pronouncing it a great and useful j
improvement on any other method of brick
making I have ever seen, both as to the quality
of the brick and exped lion in making. Bv re
quest I timed the machine for halt an hour ;
•ho result ot that trial shows that with 14 hands
the machine will turn out of beautiful and well
tempered brick. 2.308 in one hour, or about 40

WALDIE S LITERARY OMNIBUS-
A'vvei and Important Literary Enterprize!
•Y nvets, Talcs, biography, Voyages, Travels, i
Reviews, and the Aries of the Day. It was '
one of the great objects of“Waldie s Library,”
“to make good reading cheaper, and to bring
Literature to every man’s door.” This object
has been accomplished ; we have given to |
books wings, and they have flown to tile up- j
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 the 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, lor iess than four cents a
tcrek. and to add, as a piquant seasoning to the
dish, a few columns ot shorter literary matters,
and a summary ol the news and events of the
day. We know, by experience and calcula
tion, that ke can go still further in the matter
of reduction, and we feel, that there is still
verge enough tor us to aim at oft’eriug to an
increasing literary appetite, that mental lood
which it craves.
'lhe Select Circulating Library, now as ever
so great a favorite, will continue to "make its
weekly visits, and to be issued in a form for j
binding and preservation, and its price aim
lurm will remain the same. But we shall, in
the first week of January, 1837, issue a huge
siieet, ol the size of the largest newspapers oi
America, but on very superior paper, also , Jilt
ed with boohs, of the newest and most entertain
ing, though, in their several departments ot
Novels, Tales, Voj ages, Travels, Ac., select in
tiu-ir character, jomed with reading, sued as
should fill a weekly newspaper. By this meth
od, we iiope to accomplish a great good; toen
livt-n 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, m
book form, would alarm the pockets ot the pru
dent, and to do it in a manner that the most
sceptical shall acknowledge “ the power oi
concentration can no tiirtlier go.” No book,
which appears in VValdie’s Library, will
be published m the Omnibus, which will be an
entirely distinct period cal.
TkkMs. 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
be procured, equal every week, to a London
duodecimo volume,embracing Novels, Travels,
Memoirs, Ac., and only chargeable with A'ews
paper postage.
2d. Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices
of books, and information from “the world ol
letters,” of every description.
3d. The news of the week, concentrated into
a small compass, but in a sutticieut amount to
embrace a knowledge of the principal events,
political and miscellaneous, ol Europe and A
merica.
The price will be TWO DOLLARS to clubs
of five subscribers, where the paper is forward
ed to one address. The clubs oi two individ
uals. FIVE DOLLARS; single mail subscrib
ers, THREE DOLLARS. The discount on
uncurrent money will be charged to the remit
ter ; tlie low price and superior paper, absolute
ly prohibit paying a discount.
UJOn no condition wilt a copy ever be sent,
until the payment is received in advance.
As the arrangements lor tlie prosecution ol
tilts great literary undertaking, are all made,
and tin- proprietor lias redeeiueu all his pledges
to a generous .public for many years, no lear ol
non-lulfiiincnt of the contract can be lelt. The
Omnibus will be regularly issued, aud wifi
contain, in a year, reading matter equal in a
uiount to two volumes ot Rees’ Cyclopedia, lor
the small sum mentioned above. Address (post
paid,) ADAM WALDIE.

QU’ Editors throughout tlie Union anu.Cana
da, will confer a favor, by giving the above one
|or more conspicuous insertions, and accepting
i the work for a year as compensation.
PROSPECTUS OF
Tli c Lx [ir I* iin cut.
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. **Tiik Expkrimfxt,'
after a trial of almost 12 months, bus not failed in
recuruig for the Editor, the attention und pat
soilage desired ; and it is confidently believed,
in rendering to subscribers, at least an equiva
lent for ihc pittance they contributed towards
its support. Gratified tor the encouragement
manilcstcd, desirous of muk.ng ins 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
times as much matter as it now does. Thus
will be afforded greater space lor his own lucu
brations and those of correspondents, together
with Advertisements and judicious selections-
It may not be inappropriate here to remark, that,
or want of room, some ol 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, tin-subscription price
for the second volume will be One Dollar in
advance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at the
expiration ot the year. This alteration, it will
be perceived, is not in proportion to the change
ol size in the paper; the times being hard, we
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 per
square for the first insertion, and 25 cents per
square for each subsequent insertion.
O’Those wll ° can conveniently pay in ad
vance, by doing ao, will not only save them
selves a heavy interest, but enable us, with
more alacrity ami advantage, to prosecute the
work. F. J. ROBINSON.

CARET’S LIBRARY OF CHOICE
literature.
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 both
of opinion and praotice. 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 ot our great republic crave tlie pos
session of the books themselves, and details,
beyond mere passing allusion, of the progress
ol 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 of literature, engrossl
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
of the covered literary aliment It is the oba
ject of the publishers of the Library to obviate
these dilliculties, and to enable every individ
ual, at a small cost and without any personal
>rt, to obtain Jor his own use and that of li.s
tavored friends or family, valuable works, com
plete, on all the branches ol useful and popular
iiteiature, and that in a form adapted to the
comfort of the reader.
The charm of variety, as fur as it is conipati
ble witlt 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
of biography, history, travels, novels and poe
try, shall be freely put under contribution.—
With perchance occasional exceptions, it is in
tended to give entire the work which shall be
selected lor publication. \Y hen circumstances
authorize the measure, recourse will be had to
the literary stores ot Continental Europe, and
translations made from French, Italian or Ger
man, as the case 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
ot a magazine, and consist ol sketches of men
and things, am! notices of novelties in literature
and the aiis tnreughout the civilized world.—
A lull and rig ulur 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 proviue am
ple materials for this purt of our work.
The resources and extensive eoirespondence
of the publishers are the best guarantee tor the
continuance ot the enterprize m winch they
are about to embark, as wen as lor 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 be fully satisti
ed, as the editor of the Library is not a stran
ger to them, but has more than once obtained
tneir favorable sufl'rages tor his past literary
efldrts.
TERMS.
The work will be published in weekly num
bers, in stitched eovers, eacli number Contain

ot matter lurnished in a single year, will be e
qual to more than lorty volumes ot the com

per upon which the Library will be printed,
will be ot the finest quality used for Look work,
and ol a size admirably adapted 16r binding.—

THE HERALD AND STAR.
IT cannot be denied that the present state ol
our country demands peculiar and well di
rected activity on tlie part ot the press to make
known the features ot the various topics winch
are now agitating the various portions of the
national conieuerucy. To supply , at a low
price, the inland towns with imormution, at a
little delay only, alter it has been received m
the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should
in tne end reward sued persons as exert their
ability for Uie successiul lurthcrance of tins ob
ject.
The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston
Daily llerald, convinced ol the importance ol
a carefully conducted press to disseminate in
formation throughout tlie country , some weeks
since issued tin* first number ol the Sr:mi
Welkly Herald and Star, wh.ch they have
louhd to be suitable to the wants ol the inland
community, as it turiilsiies over one hundred
newspapers in a year, at the very low price ol
two dollars. This paper is made up from the
Daily llerald with such additional matter, in
the shape of stones, legends, poetry, statements
of tin* markets, and such laioriaalion respecting
sales as may uc deemed advantageous to she
yeomanry of the land.
The peculiarity of the llerald and Star will
b< found to be in the fact tuut while it is not
engaged in party politics, it reserves to itseli
the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on
every subject which concerns tiie weal of the
whole country—and summons to aid, besides
the constant supervision of the Editors, valua
ble assistants, whir are industriously and hour
ly exerting themselves to give strength and a
oility to tneir various departments.
The Herald and Star is published every Tucs
day and Friday morning, and mailed on the
night previous in order to ensure its speedy
transmission by tlie mails.
The price is Two Dollars a year payable in
advance ; $‘2,45 in three months; $2,70 in six
months; $3 at the end of the year. 'lhe best
method to ensure the reception of the paper is
to enclqge $2 in a letter addressed to tlie Pro
prietors. HARRINGTON A CO.

It' WHITE HAGER, respectfully
inlorm the l'nnlers ol the United States
to whom they have been ind.vidually known
as established letter lounders, that they have
now formed a co-partnership in said business
and an extensive experience, they hope to be
able to give satisiaction to all who may lavor
them with their orders.
The introduction of machinery in place of
the tedious and unhealthy process of casting
type by hand, a u. s.deratum by the European
founders, was by American ingenuity, a heavy
expenditure of time and money on the part of
our senior partner, first succ. sstully accom
plished. Extensive use of the machine-cast
letter, has fully tested and established its su
pericifity in every particular, over those cast
by the old process.
The letter foundry business will hereafter
be carried on by the parties before named, un
der the firm of White, Hager & Cos. Their
Specimen exhibits, a complete senes, from
Diamond to Sixty-four Lines Pica. The Book
and News type being in the most modern style.
White, Hager & Cos. are Agents for the sale
of the Smith and Rust Printing Presses, with
which they can furnish their customers at man
ufacturers prices; Chases, Cases, Composing
Sticks, Ink, and every article used in the print
ing business, kept for sale and lurnished on
short notice. Old type taken in exchange for
new at nine cents per lb.
