.Yore/and Important Literary Enterprise!
jXorels. Talcs, Biography, Voyages, Travels,
otrinrs. and the A'etes of the Day.- It was
one of the great objects of “Waldic’s Library,”
‘•to make good reading cheaper, and to bring
\1 literature to every man’s door.” This object
has been accomplished; we have-given to
books wings, and they have flown to the up
permost parts of otrr vast continent, carrying
society to the secluded, occupation to the lit*--
rare, information to all. We now propose still
thriller 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
t reek, end to add. as-a piquant seasoning to the
dish, a few columns of shorter literary matters,
and a summary of the news and events of the
clay. We know, \iy experience and calcula
tion,, that we can go still further in the matter
of rednetion. and we feel, that there is still
verge cuioirgii for us to aim at offering to an
increasing literary appetite, that mental food
which It craves.
The SclectGireuluting Library, now as ever
so great a favorite, will continue to make its
weekly Visits, and to he issued in a form for

give to it, at at expense which shall he no con
sideration to any .a mass ol‘ reading, that, in

TH E LADIES COMPANION, a roonth
, ly periodical, commenced on the broad
| grounds of diffusing general information, tar
| and wide—at a price, which is within the reach
(of all classes ofthe community. The plan has
j succeeded beyond the most sanguine anticipa
tions of the proprietor. The first number was
1 issued to the public, with only strtnfeen names
; of subscribers, and at this day it boasts of a cir
; dilation nearly double that of any monthly
j Magazine in America; and is daily increasing,
at an average of twenty subscribers. In the
1 pages ofthe Ladies Companion, every class ot
| readers will find that which will tend to their
!en joyment; tales, of every nature, pathetic and
j humorous; choice essays and sketches by the
| best writers ofthe dm ; literary and scientific
I intelligence ; copiotts extracts from American
and English Annuals; strictures on the drama
j and fine arts ; notices of all the new publications
j as they issue from the press; translations from
1 the French, Spanish, Greek, German, Italian
: and Hebrew languages; original and selected
' poetry ; original music and Engravings, with
i fine wood cuts and patterns of embroidery ot

Articles from the pens ot the first authors in

pages ot the Ladies Companion, during the two
last volumes, without reterence to expense, too
numerous to name, which stamps it the cheap
est and most divers,lied periodical issued in A

.Negotiations have been commenced with an
additional number of popular writers, for origi
nal contributions for the ensuing year, among
them are
E. L. Hu liver W G. Simms

In conjunction with those who have, hereto
lore favored the Ladies Companion with oi m i
mil eontributions.
It has evqr been the aim of the proprietor to
inculcate and promote the cause of morality.—
It cannot lie denied that the periodical press
exercise a decided influence upon the moral
and intellectual character; and where that
press is untrammelled by ’mercenary consider
ations or vicious principles, its effect must be
elevating and refining to a community, like
that ol America. With these views, everythimr
operating injuriously to morals nr religion have
been studiously avoided and not allowed a place
tn the Magazine ; for, we hold those nu n as
traitors to their country, who would seek to do
stroy the pure doctrines of virtue and religion,
either by open opposite in nr secret intrigue
I n sustaining the literary character of the La
dies ('ompanion, the proprietor will not confine
himseil to tile mere task of pleasing, without
j imparting vigor to the mind ; hut will endeavor
jto present both, that which will be attractive
i to superficial readers, as well as that which
i will lurnisli subjects for reflection to the stu
dent. No work in America presents its sub
seribers with such a melenge of invaluable
reading as tin* Ladies ('oiupaiuon, lor its ex
tremely hnv price (three dollars a vear;) and
( letters are continually being reeeivi and 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 ot
•the American people, particularly those of the
state ot New A <>rk and adjacent ones.
It is not generally known to the public that
each number ot the J .ados Companion con
tains more reading than any other Manaizine in
i America; and its subscription price is two dol
( bus 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 vear, payable
m advance, and no subscription taken for less
than one year. It is published on the loth ol
each mouth'. *titched in a colored cover and for

I have witnessed the performance of Mr T.
j L. Smith s new Brick-making Machine, just
, put into operation in this place : and have no
1 hesitation in pronouncing it a great and useful
improvement on any other method of brick
i making I have ever seen, both as to the quality
jot the brick and expedition in making. By re
j fittest I timed the machine for half an hour ;
the result of 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
to the minute. JNO. RUTHERFORD.

THE HERALD AND STAR.
IT cannot be denied that the present state til
our country demands peculiar and well di
rected activity on the part of the press 4o 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 ns exert their
ability for the successful furtherance of this ob-
Ihe Editors and "Proprietors of the Boston
Daily Herald, convinced of the importance ol
j a carefully conducted press to disseminate in
j formation throughout the country, some weeks
| since issued the first number of the Semi
Weekly Herald and Star, which they have
I 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 of
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 such information respecting
sales as may be deemed advantageous to the
yeomanry of the land.
The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will
be fount# to be in the fact that while it is not
engaged in party politics, it reserves to itselt
the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on
every subject wlndi.concerns the weal of the
whole country—an«F summons to aid, besides
the constant supervision of* the Editors, valua
i ble assistants, who are industriously and hour
| ly exerting themselves to give strength and a
( bility to their various departments.
! The Herald and Star is published every Tues
j day and Friday morning, and mailed on the
| night previous in order to ensure its speedy
I transmission by the mails.
( The price is Two Dollars a year payable in
j advance ; §i2,25 in three months ; $52,50 in six
i months; s>3 at the end of the year. The best
| method to ensure the reception of the paper is
to enclose s>2 in a letter addressed to the Pro

CAREY’S LIBRARY OF CHOICE
LITERATURE.
FTIO say that this is a reading age, implies n
J- desire for instruction, and the means to
gratify that des.re, on the first point, all are a
greed ; on tile 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 ot 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 book*, the people in large numbers,
in all parts of our great republic crave the pus
session of the books themselves, and details,
beyond mere passing allusion, of the progress
of 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, engross!
ing occupations which prevent personal appli.
cat’-on ot even messages to libraries and book
sellers, are so many causes to keep people a
way trorn tile feast of reason and the enjoyment.
of 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
effort, to obtain for his own use and that of his
tavored 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 ofthe reader.
Ihe charm of variety, as far as it is compass
ble with morality and good taste, will be helc
constantly in view in conducting the Library,
to fill the pages of which the current literature*
of Great Britain, in all its various departments
Os biography, history, travels, novels and pos
try, shall be freely put under contribution.—
With 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, as the case may be.
Whilst the body ofthe 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 arts throughout the civilized world.—
A luff 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 tor this part of our work.
The resources and extensive correspondence
of the publishers are the best guarantee for the
continuance of the enterprize in which they
are about to embark, as well as for the abun
dance of the materials to give it value ill 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 satisfi
ed, as the editor of the Library is not a stran
ger to them, but has more than once obtained
their favorable suliiages for his past literary
efforts.

bers, in stitched covers, each number contain
