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.

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.

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.
