The Taelies' Companion, [ESTABLISHED IN 1834,] A popular am! highly estcimed Magazine. f>J general literature anil the Fine Arts, mill it, ished irjth Gorgeous and Costly Engratings on Steel, Copper and Hood ; and also irith Fashionable and Popular Music, arrangid for the Piano-Forte, Guitar and Harp. EDITORS. Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, William W. Snowiies. 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 ed to him so liberally, lias secur-d the i.nl .>1 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 partment. an equally careful supervision will bo strictly exorcised by the Editors, and all ap propriate expenditures will ho liberally bestow ed, as it is the design of t lie publisher, w it h the aid of his contributors and the advice c.f his friends to make the Eddies' Companion distin guished for the hi only and accuracy of its typo graphy—the rarii ty and high tone of its litr'rarn articles—the quality and rut tie of its music-- ami the unequalled splendor of its l’n iokial Lm -I!ET I.IMI M ENTS. 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 ally. Tin re is no irorh that gins its -.toilers such a great return for their suhsrriutii n The Prize Arit«i.e« will all be published during the year.

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 plete, on all the branches of useful and popular literature, anil that in a form adapted to the comfort of the reader. | The charm of variety, as far as it is cotnpati hie with morality and good taste, will he held constantly in vn w in conducting the Library, jto fill the pages of which the current literature of Great Bnt iin, in all its various departments of biography, history, travels, novels and poe -1 try. shall he freely put under contribution.— |V\ 1 11 1 perchance occasional exceptions, it is in* ! tended to give entire the work which shall be j selected for publication. \\ lien eireiniistance.-, 1 authorize the measure, recourse will he had to ! the literary stores of Continental Europe, and translations made from French, Italian or tin man. as ‘.lie ease may he. Y\ h l l st the body of the work will he a reprint. or iit times a translation of entire volumes, tlie cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and things, and notices of novelties in literature and tin* arts tillin' !limit the civilized world.— A Mil mil r i*uh supply ofthc literary , month ly in . hetiilomaiuil journals of tlreat Britain land Irelaud, in additi nto home periodicals ol a similar character, cannot tail to provide am ple materials for tills part of our work. The resources and extensive correspondence of 1 lie publishers are the best guarantee for the continuance ol' the enlerpiv/.e in which they j arc about to embark, as well as for the n'niiii j dance of the materials to give it value in the I eyes of the public. As fur as judicious selec tion and arrangement are eouei rued, readers will it is hoped, have reason to lie fully salisli ed, ay the editor of the Library is not a stran ger to them, hut has more than once obtained their favorable suffrages for Lis pact liti rarv efforts.

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. uud to win readers and patrons without offer- I ing them a bribe of a dozen romances as a temp tation.

Asa further inducement to uniting in subscriptions, five copies will be sent tor lt*n Dollars remitted absolutely in ad vance, and any larger number in proportion. 1 he Quarto edition is issued every Saturday evening, on a larger and finer sheet, intended expressly tor binding. Each number contains sixteen larg-* pages ot three columns each, in-! eluding a page ot popular Music, and cxciud ing advertisements. It forms two ample vol umes of pages eacli. per annum, and is af forded at Four Dollars a year.
