Mrs. Ann S. Stephens,

Assisted by many of the most Popular Unices.
Since the publication of the May number, the
demand for the Ladies’ Companion has horn
unprecedented and beyond the m ist sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement of the
volume an additional number of copies \v< n
printed, which yas eensidered at the timie ade
quate to satisfy all the orders xvhich might be
received, and leave considerable number on
hand for 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 time but very few complete sets remain on
hand, to supply the numerous orders whieli arc
daily received from every section of tlie t int
ed States.
In consequence of this great unforeseen in
crease of new subscribers, lie has determined to
double the number of impressions for the sub
sequent year ; while he most gratefully appre
ciates the unpreedented encouragement ex
tended to the Ladies'Companion, and at the
same time he begs to assure the readers of the
magazine and the public in general, that it is
his ardent resolution to meet it with a corres
ponding liberality on his part to merit its con
tinuance.
Splendid Steel Enci: minus by our host
artists, accompany each number—illustrated
by Tales and spirited Sketches—which will, as
heretofore, continue to be magnificent, and’{hr
superior to those published in any other maga
zine in America.
The Ladies' Companion contains a larmr
quantity oj reading than any other magazine
issued in this country, and its subscription
price is only three dollars a ytar, while the great
combination of talent secured for the coming
year will render it unequalled by any other
periodical. ,
Its Literary Character ! W ill under
go considerable change, as the publisher of
the Ladies' Companion, in order to *lonv Ins
appreciation of the public favor alrend\ ex* nd

Mrs. Ann S. Stepiie. k,
late Editor of the “Portland .Magazine,'' and
author of a series of the most beautiful mid
popular tales ever presented to an American
public. No lady possessing greater variety of
talent, or better calculated to aid in conduei ing
u ladies’ magazine, eouhl have been selected
from the galyjty of female genius win. Ii is tic
glory of our country.
The Musical Department, is under the
supervision of Mr. J. Watson, whose qualifica
tions for the task are too well known to require
our testimony.
This department of the Ladies' Companion
has ever commanded a large share of attention,
and Ims been looked upon with no little inter
est by its readers, and more especially the La
dies, whom the publisher is in the highest de
gree anxious to please. It will continue to be'
a subject of more than usual care to him, and
to the Professor under whose supervision it i-j
placed, to make that portion of the magazine
allotted to Music, more than ever deserving of
the countenance of every lover of music.” Jt
has ever been and will continue to be the do
sire to have all pieces ot Music printed correct
ly and free from errors.
The Work in (Jeneral. Over every de

aid of his contributors and the advice c.f his
friends to make the Eddies' Companion distin

It is the determination of the publisher to us •
every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies' Companion lias obtained. Tor four
} ears he has steadily pursued a course of im
provement, ami he Hatters himself that his pres
ident facilities urc such as to give the Ladies'
Companion eminent advantages over all other
publications of its character.
From the foregoing it will be perceived that
the Ladies Companion embraces every de
partment within the range of lltlles-l.etires and
the line Arts ; and no exertions or expense v ill
be deemed too great to render the work equal
tunny other extent. The flattering and gener
al testimonials of nearly every coti mporarv
journal in the United States, anil in fact, many
on the other side ot the Atlantic, have strongiv
asserted the undeniable claims of the Ladies’
Companion to the support of tin* public gener

CAREY’S LIBRARY OP CHOICE!
LITERATURE.
TTAO say thkt this is a reading age, implies a
JL desire for instruction, and the means to j
gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a
greed ; on the second, there is diversity both
of opinion and practice. We have newspa
pers. magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of
, all sizes. <>n nearly all subjects, which have
severally their classes of readers and support
ors. Anil yet copious as are these means of
intellectual supply, more are still needed. In
addition to the reviews of the day and passing
notices of hooks, tlie people in large numbers,
hi all parts of i ur gri at 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
he easy to ascertain and express their wants, it
jis riot, so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis
i lance from the emporium of literature, engross
: ing occupations which prevent personal appli
I cation ol even messages to libraries and book*
! sellers, are so many causes to keep people ul
I way from the feast of reason and the enjoyment
of the covered literary aliment It is the oh
ject of the publishers of the Library to obviate
these difficulties, and to enable every individ
mil. 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

THE NEW YORKER.
ON the 24th day of March, le*BS, the sub-!
scribers commenced the Fifth Volume |
<>f their journal .|both Folio and Quarto edition. |
No endeavors have thus far been spared to ren- j
der it worthy the patronage and esteem of the 1
public, and a corresponding spirit will animate
our future exertions. tßecent arrangements 1
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 deempd a lesson of experi
ence that the union of all the branches of edit
orial labor, in a work so comprehensive as ours
in tlu* hands of a single individual—who is ;
thus compelled to pay simultaneous and un
ceasing attention to Literature, Politics, For
eign Affairs, Domestic Occurrences, and every
subject of interest—is-( not so well calculated
to secure tlie highest efficiency in these vari
ous departmentsjas a system embraces a partial
| though not absolute division of intellectual la
j bor. Under this conviction, the active assist
; ance as well as counsel of a gentleman favora-.
I»ly known in the higher walks of Literature,
have been secured for tlie ensuing year, and
that portion of the paper more especially known
1 as Literary, will be placed under his charge.
: The political department, with a general su
pervision of the entire work, will remain with
him who lias 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
his aid in advancing tlie literary reputation of
the paper. It is belived by thisarrangment a
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 fi.liOO to *J.OOO copies per week.
through every State and city, anil nearly every
county, in the Union —it, cannot be 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 lij* two objects: the one of combining
the greatest practicable amount of useful and
elevating information xvitli the highest general
interest; the other, of disseminating truth so
tar as poss.lilo divested of the jaundice of prej
udice and the cant of party. In short, our
motto is impartiality, as distinguished from the
support ot this or that party, clique, or faction,
whether in literature or politics. In conform
mg to this outline, great care is taken against
falling into the pernicious error—more fatal
than tlie one we oppose—of -suppressing or
withholding important truth because it has
hern made the theme "of partisan conflict- In
regard to literature, we shall freely express our
own opinions, hut accord a fair hearing to
whatever may stand opposed to them. In poli
ties. our strictures on public, men and measures
and political doctrines will evince a freedom
tempered at all times by courtesy; and it will
be our untiring aim to exhibit the views of all
pai ties and sec-t3. 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, Arc.—will be given,
as well as ot the results of all elections and ta
llies of the popular votes cast therein. But
without entering further into particulars, we
nriv say that we shn.ll endeavor to publish such
a journal as shall be deemed inferior in merit
and scope to no weekly periodical; and we
| hope to render it popular without emptying in
: to it whole Novels, Annuals and Jest-Bimks.

TO OUR PATRONS AN I) THE PUBLIC.
The great commercial revulsion of last year,
and the ruinous derangement of the currency
consequent thereon, eoinhined with the great
inconvenience to which we were subjected by
the suppression of Small Notes, absolutely !
forced upon us an enhancement of our price. I
originally too low for such a paper as we have
endeavored to present. These evils have ini
part censed; we trust they will sunn cease alto- :
gether. Under that impression, we now make
the following modifications of our terms ofi
subscription, viz: for our Quarto edition. Three
Dollars and a Half in advance, Five Dollars!
for a year and a halt, three copies a year for j
I en Dollars, or five copies a year for Fifteen i
Dollars. Our Folio paper will he afforded for
1 wo Dollars and a Half per annum m advance;
fixe copies tor lun Dollars. These teriws op- !
