[CAREY’S LIBRARY OF CHOICE
| LITERATURE.
, rpO say that this is a reading age, implies a
I _ desire for instruction, and the means to
j gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a
i greed ; on the second, there is diversity both
jof opinion and practice. We have newspa
; pers, magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of
[ all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have
j severally their classes of readers and support
j ers. And yet copious as are these means ol
I intellectual supply, more are still needed. In
addition to the review’s of the day nnd 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
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
cation of even messages to libraries and book
sellers, are so many causes to keep people al
way from the feast of reason and the enjoyment
of the covered literary aliment. It is the übjj
jectofthe publishers of the Library to obviate
these difficul-)ies, 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 compati
ble with morality and good taste, w’ill 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
try, shall he 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 of the work w’illbe 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 full and regular supply of the litqrary, 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 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 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 satisfi
ed, as the editor of the Library is not a stran
ger to them, but has more than once obtained
their favorable suffrages for his past literary
efforts. TERMS.
The work will be published in weekly num
bers, in stitched covers, each number contain
ing twenty imperial octavo pages, with double
columns, making two volumes annually, ol
more than 520 octavo pages, each volume; and
at the expiration of every six months, subscri
bers will be furnished with a handsome title
page and table of contents. The whole amount
of matter furnished in a single year, will be e
qual to 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 work,
and of a size admirably adapted for binding.—
As the type will be entirely new, and of a neat
appearance, each volume when bound, will
furnish a handsome as 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 ct-nt. will be allowed
to agents ; and any agent or postmaster, fur
nishing rive subscribers, and remitting the a
mount of subscription, shall be entitled to the
commission of 20 per cent, or a copy of the
work for one year.
Editors of new’spapers, to whom this pros
pectus is forwarded, will please insert the a
bove as often as convenient, and send a copy
ot their paper containing the advertisement
marked, and entitle themselves to a free ex
change for one year. Address

BRUNSWICK, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 17, 1838.
I THE NEW YORKER.
ON the 24th day of March, 1838, the sub
scribers commenced the FiAh Volume
of their journal,*both Folio and Quarto edition.
No endeavors have thus far been spared to ren
der it worthy the patronage and esteem of the
public, and a corresponding spirit will animate
our future exertions. arrangements
have been effected, securing an accession of
talent and energy in the editorial conduct of
the work, and insuring greater variety as well
as strength in this department of the enter
prise. It has been deemed a lesson of experi
! ence that the union of all the brunches of edit- '
I orial labor,an a work so comprehensive as ours
jin the hands of a single individual—who is
thus compelled to pay simultaneous and un
j ceasing attention to,Literature, Politics, For
eign Affairs, Domestic Occurrences, and every
! subject of interest—is* not so well calculated
to secure the highest efficiency in these vari- |
ous departments as a system embraces a partial !
though not absolute division of intellectual la
bor. Under this conviction, the active assist- '
ance is well as counsel of a gentleman favora- I
bly known in the higher walks of Literature,!
have been secured lor the ensuing year, and
that portion of the paper more especially knowrn
. as Literary, will be placed under his charge.
The political department, with'a general su- ;
per vision of the entire work, will remain with
lmn who has hitherto been known to the pub
lic as the editor of the work. The City and
Foreign Department will devolve more'espe
| cially upon Dr. - Eldridge, who will also lend
j his aid in advancing the literary reputation of
the paper. It is belivedfby this arrangment a
I more complete and effective knowledge of the
subjects treated of will be insured,' while a
| more real and palpable variety—a variety of
[ manner as well as matter—will result to‘our
journal and its readers
Os the general character of The New York
er it is unnecessary to speak, since we do not
propose to change that which it has borne from
its establishment. Circulating for the last two
years from <i,ooo to 9,000 copies per week,
through every State and city, and nearly every
county, in the Union -it cannot he presumed
unknown to the educated and intelligent. To
those who have not hitherto made its acquaint
ance, it may be proper to state that it is charac
terized by two objects: the one of combining
the greatest practicable amount of useful and
elevating information witli the highest general
interest; the other, of disseminating truth so
far as possible divested of the jaundice of prej
udice and the cant of party. In short, our
motto is impartiality, as distinguished from the
support of this or that party, clique, or faction,
whether in literature or politics. In conform
ing to this outline, great care isjaken against
falling into the pernicious error—more" fatal
than the one we oppose—of suppressing or
withholding important truth because it has <
been made the theme of partisan conflict- In!
regard to literature, we shall freely express our !
own opinions, but accord a fair hearing to ]
whatever may stand opposed to them. In poli
tics, our strictures on public men and measures j
and political doctrines will evince a freedom I
tempered at all times by courtesy; and it will |
he our untiring aim to exhibit the views of al!
parties and sects, as set forth by their leaders
and oracles. In this manner, we hope to ren
der our journal a more lucid and perfect histo
ry of the political contests of the times than
can fairly be expected from any partisan paper.
A concise account of all political movements—
conventions, nominations, &c.—will be given,
as well ns of the results of all elections and ta
bles of the popular votes cast therein. But
without entering further into particulars, we
may say that wo shall endeavor to publish such
a journal as shall be deemed inferior in merit
and scope to no weekly periodical; nnd v.e
hope to render it popular without emptying in
to it whole Novels, Annuals and Jest-Books,
and to win readers and patrons without offer
ing them n bribe of ad izen romances as a temp
tation.
The New Yorker is published in two forms—
the Folio, or tlie common newspaper form, ev
ery Saturday morning, on a large imperial
sheet, at Three Dollars per annum, or Fi\’c Dol
lars for two copies. Asa further inducement
to uniting in subscriptions, five copies will he
sent for Ten Dollars remitted absolutely in ad
vance, and any larger number in proportion.
The Quarto edition is issued every Saturday
evening, on a larger and finer sheet, intended
expressly lor binding. Each number contains
sixteen large pages of three columns each, in
cluding a page of popular Music, and exclud
ing advertisements. It forms two ample vol
umes of 4.12 pages each, per annum, and is af
forded at Four Dollars a year. Three copies,
however, will be sent for Ten Dollars; and
Five Dollars remitted free of charge w ill be
credited eighteen months. Subscriptions are
respectfully solicited.

TO OUR PATRONS AND THE PUBLIC.
The great commercial revulsion of last year,
and the ruinous derangement of the currency
consequent thereon, combined with the <rreat
inconvenience to which we were subjected by
the suppression of Small Notes, absolutely
forced upon us an enhancement of our price,
originally too low for such a paper ns we have
endeavored to present. These evils have in
part ceased; we trust they will soon cease alto
gether. Under that impression, we now make
the following modifications of our terms of
subscription, viz: "for our Quarto edition, Three
Dollars and a Half in advance, Five Dollars
for a year and a half, three copies a year for
Ten Dollars, or five copies a year for Fifteen
Dollars. Our Folio paper will be afforded for
Two Dollars and a Half per annum in advance;
five copies for Ten Dollars. These terms ap
ply to payments in advance only.

THE undersigned, late editor and proprietor
of the Augusta Chronicle, having the ex

and conscious from long experience, how much
such a facility is needed, at least by the Press,
is disposed to connect with it a General Agen
cy for the collection of A’etrspaper and other
Debts, in this nnd the neighboring Southern
States, and will travel almost continually to
present them himself. Should the business' of
sered be sufficient, the agency will he made a
permanent one—and while his long connexion
with the Press and con'sequeHt knowledge of
its peculiar requisitions and benefits from such
an Agency, and his extensive personal acquain
tance with the localities and people of the coun
try, afford peculiar facilities for the perform
ance of its duties, he trusts that suitable en

j Since the publication of the May number the
I demand for the Ladies’ Companion has been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement©? the
volume, an additional number of copies were
I printed, which was considered at the ti me ade
-1 »l ua,e to satisfy all the orders which might be
received, and leave considerable number on
hand tor subsequent calls. The publisher is
more than gratified in stating that the whole
edition was nearly exhausted before the issuing
of the seventh number of the volume; and at
this tune but very few complete sets remain on
hand, to supply the numerous orders whichare '
! da, ly received from every section of the Unit
ed States. 1
In consequence of this great unforeseen in
crease ol new subscribers, he has determined to
double the number of impressions for the sub
sequent year; while he most gratefully appre
ciates the unprecdenled encouragement ex
tended to the Ladies' Companion, and at the
same tunc lie begs to assure the readers of tho
magazine and the public in general, that it is
1 Ins ardent resolution to meet it with a corres
! P Olulin " liberality en his part to merit its con
tinuanee.
; Splendid Steel Engravings by onr best
artists, accompany each number—illustrated
| by 1 ales and spirited Sketches—which will as
| heretofore, continue to be magnificent and far
superior to those published in any other maga
! zinc in America. °
j Ihe Ladies Companion contains a larger
.ijuantityoj reading than any other magazine
usued m ill,, country, nnd its subscription
price is only three dollars a year, while the great
! combination of talent secured for the coming
year will render it unequalled by any other
: periodical. J
I ,TS Literary Character! Will under
go considerable change, as the publisher of
the Ladies' Companion, in order to show his
appreciation ol the public favor already extend
cd t.. him so liberally, lias secured the aid ot
Mrs. Ass S. Stephens,
! late Editor of the “Portland Magazine,” and
■ author ol a series of the most beautiful and
popular tales ever presented to an American
pub!:,:. No lady possessing greater variety of
talent, or better calculated to aid in conducting
i a ladies magazine, could have been sei«M|ed
from the galaxy of female genius which istho
j glory of our country.
Tm: Musical Department, is under tho
j supervision ol Mr. J. M atson, whose qualifica
tions for the task are too well known to requiro
our testimony.
Th i department of the Ladies’ Companion
has ever commanded a large share of attention
and has been looked upon with no little inter-*
csl by its readers, nnd more especially the La
dies, whom the publisher is in the highest de
i ! T ,r a ”T< us to please. It will continue to be
j a sub ret of more than usual care to him, and
to the Professor under whose supervision it is
I placed, to make that portion of tlie magazine
| allotted t,, Music, more than ever deserving of
, the countenance of every lover of music. It
I h. 13 • v, ; ' keen and will continue to be the ds
; sire to have all pieces of Music printed correct
ly "nd free, from errors.
i hi! »\ okk in General. Over every de
; partment i-n equally careful supervision will
be strictly exercised by tin- Editors, and all ap
propriate expenditures will be liberally bestow
ed, as it is the design of the publisher, with the
j aid of Ins contributors and the advice of his
| friends to make the Ladies' Companion distin
guished lor the beauty and accuracy of its typo
graphy—the rnriety and high tone of its literary
' articles—the quality and value of its music— and
the unequalled splendor of its Pictorial Em
jiei.l: miments.
L '-lie determination of the publisher to use
[ every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies’ Companion has obtained. For four
years Ik- has steadily pursued a course of im
provement, and he flattershimself that his pres,
sent facilities are such as to give the Ladies'
Companion eminent advantages oyer all other
publications of its character.
broiii tin- foregoing it will be perceived that
tile Ladies Companion embraces every de
partment v\ i tliin the range of liclles-Lettrcs and
llu- Fine Arts ; and no exertions or expense will
be deemed too great to render the work equal
to any other extent. The flattering and gener
al testimonials of nearly every coteniporarv
journal in the L uited States, and in fact, many
on tlie other side of the Atlantic, have strongly
asserted tlie undeniable claims of the Ladies’
Companion to the support of the public «,enor
ally . 'Hurt is no wort that gives its readers
such a great return for their subscription.
The Prize Articles will all be published
Luring tile year. Flu-so articles will comprise
the successful candidates for the premiums of
one thousand doHurs awarded by a committee of
literary gentlemen in August last.
TERMS—Three dollars a year in advance,
or four during the year. No subscription re
ceived for less than one year.
