Since the publication of the May number, the
demand for the Ladies' Companion has been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement of the
volume an additional number of copies were
printed, which was considered at the time ade
quate to satisfy all the orders which 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 which are
daily received from every section of the Unit
ed States.
In consequence of this great unforeseen in
crease of new subscribers, he 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
tinuance.
Splendid Stebl Engravings by our best
artists, accompany each number—illustrated
by Tales and spirited Sketches—wliieh will, as
heretofore, continue to be magnificent and far
superior to those published in any other maga
zine in America.
The Ladies' Companion contains a larger
quantity of reading than any other magazine
issued iu this country, and its subscription
price is only three dollars a year, while tile groat
combination of talent secured for the coming
year will render it unequalled by any other
periodical.

Mrs. Ann S. Stephens,
late Editor of the “Portland Magazine,” and
author of a series of the most beautiful and
popular tales over presented to an American
public. No lady possessing greater variety of
talent, or better calculated to aid in conducting
a ladies' magazine, could have been selected
from-the galaxy of female genius which is the
glory of our country.
The MtsicAi. Department, is under the
supervision of Mr. J Watson, whose qualifica
tions for tin' task axe too well known to require
our testimony.
This department of the Ladies' Companion
has evcrcommanded a large share of attention,
and has 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 Profrssor under whose supervision it is
placed, to niuke that portion of the magazine
allotted to Music, more than ever deserving of
tlie countenance of every lover of music. It
lias ever been and will continue to be the de
sire to have all pieces of Music printed correct
ly and free from errors.
The Work in General. Over every de
partment an equally can ful supervision will
be strictly exercised by the Editors, and nil ap
propriate expenditures will be liberally bestow
ed. as it is the design of the publisher, with the
aid of his contributors and the advice of his
friends to make the Ladies' Companion distin
guished for the beauty anil accuracy of Us topo
graphy—the variety and high tone of its literary \
articles—the quality and value of its music —and
the unequalled splendor of its I’ii roKiAL Em
bellishments.
It is the determination of the publisher to use
every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies' Companion has obtained. For four
years lie has steadily pursued n course ot' im
provement, and he flatters himself that his pres
tent facilities are 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 Ladif-s’ Commmos embraces every de
partment within the range of Belles-I.ettrcs and
the /Vmi* -lets ; and no exertions or expense will
be deemed too great to render the work equal
to any other extent. The flatter,ng and gener
al testimonials of nearly every cotemporarv
journal in the United States, and in fact, many
on the other side of the Atlantic, have strongly
asserted the undeniable claims of the Ladies’

CAREY'S LIBRARY OF CHOICE
LITERATURE.
TO say that this is a reading age, implies a
desire for instruction. «nu the means to
gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a
greed ; on the second, there is diversity both
iof opinion and practice. We have newspa
: pers. magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of
| all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have
severally their classes of readers and support
jers. 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 books, the people in large numbers,
in all parts of our great republic crave the pos
-1 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 a]
' way from the feast of reason and the enjoyment
]of the covered literary aliment. It is the ob
jjectofthe publishers of the l ibrary to obviate
these difficulties, and to enable every individ
ual, at a small cost and without anv personal
■ ellort, to obtain for Uis own use and that of his
j 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 coinpati
( hie with morality and good taste, will be held
I constantly in View in conducting the Library,

| of Great Britain, in all its various departments
of biograph}’, history, travels, novels and poe
try, shall be freely put tinder contribution.—
| With perchance occasional exceptions, it is in

I selected for publication. When circumstances
i authorize the measure, recourse will lie had to
i the literary stores of Continental Europe, and
j translations made from French, Italian or Ger
( man. as the case may be.
j Whilst the body of the work will be a reprint,
I or at times a translation of entire volumes, the
cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character
jof a magazine, and consist of sketches of men
, and things, and notices of novelties in literature
and the arts throughout the civilized world.—
1 A full 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 for this part of our work.
The resources and extensive correspondence
of tin" publishers are the best guarantee for the
continuance id' the enterprise in which they
are about to embark, as well as for the abun
j dance of the materials to give it value in the
i eyes of the public. As far us judicious selec
j tion and arrangement are concerned, readers
will it is hoped, have reason to he fully satisfi

ger to them, but has more than once obtained
their favorable suffrages for his past literary

The work will lie published in weekly iium

mg twenty imperial octavo pages, with double

THE HERALD AND STAR.
IT cannot bo denied that the present state ol
our country demands peculiar und well <li
rected activity on t lie part of the press to 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 as exert their
ability for the successful furtherance of this ob
ject"
The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston
Daily Herald, convinced of the importance ol
a eareiully conducted press to disseminate in
formation throughout the country, some weeks
since issued the first number of the Semi
\\ IKKI.V Hfkai.h ami Sr ak. which they have
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 ol
two dollars Phis paper is made up from the
Daily* Herald with such additional matter, in
the shape ol stories, legends, poetry, statements
ot the markets, and such information respecting
sales as may be deemed advantageous to the
yeomanry of the land.
’Pile peculiarity of the Herald and Star will j
be found to be in the fact that while it is not 1
engaged in party politics, it reserves to itseli
the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on
every subject which concerns the weal of the
whole country—and summons to aid, besides
the constant supervision of the Editors, valua- I
ble assistants, rvlio are industriously and hour |
1 v exerting themselves to give strength and a |
billty to their various departments.
The Herald and Star is published every Tues
day and Friday morning, and mailed on the '
night previous in order to ensure its speedy
transmission by the mails.
'I lie price is Two Dollars a year payable in !
advance ; §<2.25 in three months; .*2,50 in six
months; $3 at the end of the year. The best
method to ensure the reception of the paper is I
to enclose $2 in a letter addressed to the Pro- j
prietors. HARRINGTON & CO ‘ !

and conscious from long experience, how much
such a facility is needed, at least by the Press ,

with the Press and consequent knowledge ot
its peculiar requisitions and benefits from such
an Agency, and his extensive personal acquain

PROSPECTUS
OF I HE
Southern Utcrary Aspirant.
ON the first of September next, will be is
sued the first number of the Southern Lit
entry .dspirant, in quarto form, medium—to be
conducted by the present Editor of the •< News
Carrier;" at which time that paper will merge
into the former.
Such a work is offered to the public from a
firm conviction of its necessity and importance;
and the editor has only to regret that abler
hands have not undertaken to accomplish so
desired an object as the advancement of Litera
ture in the South, before him. To effect which
will be bis constant and unerring aim. The
Editor has received the assurance of assistance
from many, upon whom he relies, with a pleas
ing confidence, that himself nor the public,
through him, will be disappointed in their ex
peetations of its character and success.
We intend that our paper shall be a faithful
vehicle of general News. The cause of the
South, will be its cause, and the advancement
of her interest its chief aim and desire. Asa
paper, it will espouse no party ; the important
atfairs of Government, however, will not be
suffered to pass unnoticed—and all sensible,
judicious communications on this subject, pro
vided they are free from party spirit, will rej
ecive particular attention.
Persons obtaining ten responsible subscribers
to the .dspirant, will be entitled to otic copy
gratis.
Terms. The .‘lspirant will be published cv
erv Saturday, in the city of Macon, at Ttco
Dollars per annum—sl 25 for six months
payable in advance. No subscription received
for a less period.
Advertisements will be inserted at the usual

TIIE NEW YORKER.
ON the 24th day of March, 1838, the sub-j
scribers commenced the Fifth Volume !
of their journal, both Folio and Quarto edition, i
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
1 our future exertions. Recent arrangements
I have been effected, securing an accession of
: talent and energy in the editorial conduct of
| the work, and insuring greater variety as well
j as strength in this department of the enter-
I prise. It has been deemed a lesson of experi
jence that the union of all the branches of edit
orial labor, in a work so comprehensive as ours
in the hands of a single individual—who is
j thus compelled to pay simultaneous and un-
I ceasing attention to Literature, Politics, For
j sign Adairs, Domestic Occurrences, and every
j 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 tiot absolute division of intellectual la
bor. Under this conx-iction, the active assist
ance as well as counsel of a gentleman favora
bly known in the higher walks of Literature,
! have been secured for the ensuing year, and
that portion of the paper more especially known
as Literary, will be pkeed under his charge.
The political department, with a general su
! pervision of the entire work, will remain with
i him who has hitherto been known to the pub
| lie as the editor of the work. The City and
Foreign Department will devolve more espe
i cially upon Dr. Eldridge, who will also lend
j his aid in advancing the literary reputation of
i the paper. It is belived by thisarrangment a
I more complete and effective knowledge of the
subjects treated ol will be insured, while a
i more real anil palpable variety—a variety of
I manner as well as matter—will result to'our
| journal and its readers
Os the general character of The New York
jer it is unnecessary to speak, since we do not
j propose to change that which it has borne from
its establishment. Circulating for the last two
•years from 6,000 to 0.000 copies per week,
| through every State and city, and nearly every
| county, in the Lnion —it cannot be presumed
| unknown to the educated and intelligent. To
those who have not hitherto made its acquaint
i ance, it may be proper to state that it is charac
terized by two objects: the one of combining
j the greatest practicable amount of useful and
j elevating information with the highest n-eneral
| interest; the other, of disseminating truth so
J far as possible divested'of the jaundice of prej
i udice and the cant of party. Iu 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-
I ing to this outline, great care is taken against
| falling into the pernicious error—more fatal
I than the one wejjopposc—of suppressing or
withholding important truth because it has
; Iwcn made the theme of partisan conflict. In
| regard to literature, we shall freely express our
jopinions, but accord a fair hearing to
whatever may stand o-'posed to them. In p di-
I tics, our strictures on public men and measures
1 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 I
parties and sects, as set forth by their leaders j
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 as ot the results ol all elections and ta
bles of the popular votes cast therein. But
without entering lurthcr into particulars, we ®
may say that we shall endeavor to publish such
a journal as shall be deemed inferior in merit
and scope to no periodical; and we
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 a bribe of a dozen romances as a temp
tation. ' j
