Since the publication of the May number, the J
demand for the Ladies’ Companion has been j
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine i
anticipations. At the commencement of the ]
volume an additional number of copies were ]
printed, which was considered at the time ado- |
ijiiate to satisfy all the orders which might be
received, and leave considerable number on
band for subsequent calls. The publisher is
more than gratified in stating that the whole i
edition was nearly exhausted before the issuing j
of the seventh number of the volume ; and at
this time but very r few complete sets remain on
hand, to supply the numerous orders which arc
daily received from every section of the Unit
ed States.
In consequence of this great unforeseen in- j
crease of new subscribers, lie* has determined to j
double the number of impressions for the sub- i
sequent year; while be most gratefully appre- I
rinlcs the unprecedented encouragement ex- i
tended to the Ladies’ Companion, and at the |
same time lie begs to assure the readers of the
magazine and the public in general, that it is
his ardent resolution to meet it with a corn's-1
ponding liberality on his part to merit its con
tinuance.
Splendid Steel Engravings by our West
artists, accompany each number—illustrated
by Tales and spirited Sketches—which 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 if rending than any other magazine
issued in this country, and 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.
Irs EerrnAr.Y Character ! Will under
go considerable change, as the publisher of
the Ladies Companion, in order to show iiis
appreciation of the public fa vor already extend
ed to him so liberally, lias secured the aid ot
Mrs. Ann S. Stephens,
late Editor of the “Portland Magazine," ami
author ol a series of the most beautiful ami
popular tales ever presented to an American j
public. No lady possessing greater varietv ol I
talent, or belter calculated to aid in conducting j
a ladies' magazine, could have been selected I
from the galaxy of female genius which is the
glory of our country.
Tiie Mi shai. Dr.p witjient, is under the!
supervision oi .Mr. J. Watson, whose qualifica
tions for the task are too well known to require
our testimony.
This department of the Endics’ Companion
has ever commanded u large share of attention,
and has been looked upon with no little inter
est by its readers, and more rspt rially the La
dies, wlmill the publisher is ill the highest de
gree anxious to please. It will continue to he
a subject of more than usual care to bint, and I
to the Professor under whose supervision it is
placed, to make that portion of the magazine
allotted to Music, more than ever deserv in''' of
the countenance of every lover of music ll
lias ever been and will emitiimr to he the de
sire to have all pieces ol .Music printed curreit
lyiind free from errors.
The Work is General. Over every de
partment an equally careful supervision will
in- strictly exercised by the Editors, and all ap
propriate expenditures will ho 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 l.ntlns' Companion distin
guished tor the beauty and accuracy of its topo
graphy—the ninety and high tune of its litera l y
articles—the quality and cut i. c of its music — and
the unequalled splendor of its l’n ror.iit. Em-
R r I I MIM ENT s.
ll is the determination of the publisher to use
every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies’C 'ompaiiii.il has obtained. For four
years lie has steadily pursued a course of im
provement, mill lie flatters himself that bis pres
sed lacililies are such as to give the Ladies’
Companion eminent advantages over ali other
publications of its character.
From the foregoing it will be perceived that
‘lie Ea in is Comeanion enihno'es every de
partment within the range of lh ties- l.rtt res and
the Fine .iris ; and no exert ions or expense will
hv' deemed Its' great to render the work equal

foundation. The effort to establish it lias, at

I throughout the State; and a very slight exer

PROSPECTUS
OFTHE
SOLTI I KRN LITERARY MESSENGER.
T I AIIIS is a monthly Magazine devoted cliief-
I- ly to Eiteratcrk, hut occasionally find
ing room also for articles tliat fall within the
j scope of Si iem e ; and not professing an eti-
I tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its
' matter has been, as it w ill continue to be, in
the main, original.
j Parly Polities anil controversial Theology.
|as far as possible.arc zealously excluded. They
are sometimes so blended with discussions in
literature or in moral science, otherwise unob
jectionable, as to gain admittance for the sake
; of the more valuable matter to which they ad
here : hut whenever that happens, they are in
cidental, only ; not primary. They'are dross,
tolerated only hcc.ausi- it cannot well he ser
ved from the sterling ore where with it is incor
porated.
Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy
their due space in the work : and it is the Ed
itors aim that they should have a threefold
: tendency—to convey, in a condensed form,
such valuable (mills or interesting incidents as
.are embodied in the works reviewed,—'to direct
i the yonder's attention to books that deserve to
j he read, —and to warn him against wasting time
land money upon that large number, w liieh mer
it only to lie burned. In this age of jaihlica
i lions that by their varietv and multitude dis
} tract and overwhelm every undiscriniinating
student, impartial cuituism, governed by
the views just mentioned, is one of the most
inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to
him w ho does icish to discriminate.
lvssAvrf, and Tales, having in view utility
or amusement, or both—Historical sketch
es—and Reminiscences of events too minute
j lor History, yet elucidating it, and heighten
| in;!' its interest, — may he regarded as firming
the staple ofthe work. Ami of indigenous
Po etui enough is published—sometime* of no
mean strain —to manifest and to cultivate the
growing poetical taste and talents of ourcoun
t IV.
The times appear, for several reasons, to de
mand such a work—and not one alone, but
ninny. The public mind is feverish and irri
tated still, from recent political strifes:—The
soft, assuasivo influence of Literature is need
ed, to allay that lever, and tliai irrita
tion. Vice and folly are noting abroad i—They
should he driven by indignant rebuke, or lash-
I ed by ridicule, into their fitting liaffints. flgno
i ranee lords it over an proportion of
I our peopie : Every spring should L set in
j motion, to arouse the enlightened, am! so in
| crease their number : so that the great enemy
! of popular government may no longer brood,
| like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of
j our eou utry. And to accomplish all these ends,
jwhnl more powerful agent can he cmiif'iyed,
j than a periodical, on the plan of the Me -onger:
i if that plan be hut carried out in practice ?
| The SotTii peculiarly requires such an a
i gent, in all the Union, south of Washington,
there are hut two Literary periodicals 1 North
, ward of that city, there are probably at h ast
twenty-live or thirty ! Is this contrast justified
by the wealth, the leisure, the native taiant. or
1 the actual literary taste, of the Bouthert peo
ple, compared with those of the Ndheni :
No i for in wealth, talents, and taste, u. may
; justly claim at least an equality with our breth
i ren : and a domestic institution exclusively
our own. beyond all doubt affords us, if we
choose, twice the leisure for leading am. wil
ling. which they enjoy.
li was from deep sense of this local want,
j that the word Set ruins was engrafted on the
name of this periodical : and not with ;ijy de
sign to nourish local prejudices,or to autocate
supposed local interests. Far from any'such
thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to see
the North and South hound endearingly tageth
i er forever, in the silken bauds of mutual kind
ness and affection. Far from mi dialing Jushl
[ ity to the North, he has already drawn, aid he
hopes hereafter to draw, much of liis chaieest
matter thence : and happy indeed w ill lie deem
i himself, should his pages, by making each re
; gion know the other better, contribute it any
essential degree to dispel the lowering tlomis
that new threaten the peace of both. |nd to
brighten and strengthen the sacred ties r i>f fa
terhallove.
The {Softhern Literary Messkm.e| lias
now reached the llitli No. of its third volume.
How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered,
is not for the Editor to say. He believes, how
ever, that it falls not further short of them,
than human weakness usually makes Pnutirr
fall short of Theory.
No subscription will be received fori -s than
a Volume, and must either begin with the cur
rent one —or may commence with Vol. IV, tin
first number of which will be issued on tlx- Ist
January, 1838.—The price is $5 per Volume,
irhich mast be paid in all cases at the t me if

THE NEW YORKER.
ON the 21th day of March, 1838, the sub
scribers commenced the Fifth Volume
of their journal, botli Folio and Quarto edition,
i No endeavors have lints far been spared to ren
der it worthy the patronage and esteem of the
i public, and a corresponding spirit will animate
our future exertions. Recent arrangements
have been effected, securing an accession of
i talent and energy in the editorial conduct of
the xvork, and insuring greater variety as well
as strength in this department of the enter
prise. It has been declin'd a lesson of experi
ence that tlm 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
| 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 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 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 placed under his charge.
The political department, with a general su
! pervision of the entire work, will remain with
| him who has hitherto been known to the pub
lic as the editor of the work. The City and
i Foreign Department will devolve more espe-
I cially upon l)r. Eldridge, who will also lend
j liiz aid in advancing the literary reputation of
I the paper. It is belived by this arraugiueut a
i more complete and effective knowledge of the
| subjects treated of will he insured, while a
j more real and palpable varietv—a variety of
jinaimtras well as matter—will result to our
! journal and its readers.
Os flu' general character of The New York
ierit is unnecessary to speak, since we do not
; propose to change that which it has borne from
j its establishment. Circulating lor the last two
j years from (i.(H)O to 0,00(1 copies per week,
i through every State and city’, and nearly every
I county, in the Union -it '■annot be presumed
j 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 with the highest general
interest; the other, of disseminating truth so
i tar as possible divested "I the jaundice of prej
| udiee and the cant ol' party. In short, our
! motto is impartiality, as distinguished from the
; support ot this or that paily. clique, or taction.
: whether in literature or polities. In conl’orin
; lug to this outline, great care is taken against
| tailing into the pernicious error—more fatal
j than the one we oppose—of suppressing or
I withholding important truth because iTlias
been made the theme of partisan conflict. In
! regard to literature, we shall freely express our
! own opinions, but accord a fa r hearing to
! whatever may stand opposed to them, la pali
, ties, our strictures on public men and measures
j nml 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
parties and sects, as set forth by tlmir leaders
land oracles. In this manner, we lo pe to reu
-1 der our journal a more lucid and perfect histo
jry of the political contests of the times than
i < ’“ 11 bnily be expected from any partisan paper.
| A concise account „f all political movements—
I conventions, nominations, Ac.—will he given.
: as well as ot the results ot all elections and ta
j Ides of the popular votes cast therein. But
without entering lurthei* into particulars, we
| may say that we*shall endeavor to publish such
: a .journal as shall he deemed interior in merit
I and scope to no weekly periodical; mid 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 br.be of a dozen romances as a temp
{ tutiou.
1 ho Now Yorker is published in two forms—

lars sor a two copies. Asa further inducement

TO OUR PATRON'S AND THE PL RUC. ;
1 he great commercial revulsion of last year,
and the ruinous derangement of the currency
consequent thereon, combined with the n-reut
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 as we have
endeavored to present. These evils have in
part ceased; we trust they will soon cease alto
gether. 1 uder 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 f.r' Fifteen
Dollars. Our Folio paper will he afforded for
1 vv o Dollars and a Half per annum in advance; '
five copies tor len Dollars. J iiese terms ai»- i

PROPOSALS
For publishing, by subscription, a work to bt
entitled
Flora liiorgiensis.
THIS will be, both a Grammar and Diction
ary of Botany ;—presenting, first, Vegeta
ble Physiology, and, second, a minute and ac
curate description of every plant yet discovered
in Georgia, together with its medicinal or nox
ious properties—its English name—itsomblem,
language, Ac. Such a work is much needed,
at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We
have no text book in Botany, calculated to
render the science attractive. Such as wc
have, are nothing more than a few disconnected
facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a
i few leaves, roots, floxvers, &e. all tending to
! excite disgust rather than taste. Students
should, as soon as possible, be inducted into the
practical part of the science—it is that only
which can inspire them with enthusiasm in the
prosecution of their researches. We have nev
er known a profound botanist, made so, by
delving for months ovx'r pages treating of sap,
alburnum, cambium, and the like. This work
will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes
and orders in the Linncan system, the method
of analysing flowers, and, proceed next, to the
examining, collecting and arranging of them
into an herbarium. A lore for the science be
ing thus implanted, it must and trill increase,
j and urge them on to further and further investi
gations.
We intend that our work shall he, at once, a
i text book for schools—a pleasing companion
I for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful
j friend and companion for gentlemen in their
travels, their daily rambles, &c. Finally, it
will be enriched with every species of informa

j and instructive.
i We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle

AND GARDENERS.
Gt R. GARIIETSON, has removed his
wholesale and retail Agricultural and
Garden Seed Wharehouse, to Flushing, L. 1.,
-New York, where he intends dealing exten
sively in the above business, and will be at all
times enabled to furnish dealers and others xvitli
every article in his line of business. And as
the greater part of his stock of Seeds is raised
under his personal attention or direction, or
where it is necessary to import from Europe,
they are procured from the most respectable
Seed establishments there, and their qualities
being tested to his own satisfaction, their accu
racy and vitality are expressly warranted.
The vending of Seeds is a business deserv
| mg much greater attention from the mercan
tile community than is at present bestowed up- j
on it. There is scarcely a farmer or planter i
who would not purchase an assortment of su
perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them
easily. And as they yield a handsome profit,!
some explanations may be requisite in regard to !
making saleg. Ac. They are usually supplied
by tie' pound or bushel, and will afford a profit .
of Hill per cent, or more, at tile New Y’ork re
tail prices. For convenience they can be neat- !
ly papered and labelled and assorted into boxes
(or put up in strong papers, thereby saving the
expense of box) each suitable fora family gar
den, which will be supplied at from jstl to
—the latter being sufficient to crop a garden
of one acre. Or they can he put into ti 1-4 and
12 1-2 cent papers, neatly labelled, and assort
ed suitable lor a retail dealer, each of which by
the quantity will be charged so as to allow a
l’roht ol Ml per cent, on the New York retail
l>r:ces. Any one wishing to engage in the |
vemhngot seeds, and not having experience, I
by addressing the proprietor will have the ne
cessary information given, and they mnv feel
confident they will he served with none hut ar
ticles ofthe very best quality.
The l’roprietoiQiaTfurther to state, that lie!
is enabled to furnish all kinds of Books on Ag
riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture, Ahoricul
ture, Rural Economy, Ac. Ac. Also. Agri
cultural Implements of Husbandry and Garden
Tools ol every description. Also, Fruit and
Ornamental Tree's and Herbaceous Flowering
l’lants, Roses and Green House Plants of a very
great variety; all ot which can be packed so
as to be transported to any part of the United
States, West Indies or elsewhere. Great at
tention lias been paid to obtaining both from
foreign countries and at home, the finest agri
cultural seeds, all ot which can be furnished in
large quantities, and where the purchase is
made tor cash a discount will be alloxved. A
liberal credit wilßhe given where a good under

MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS.
60,000 PLANTS of the Chinese Mulberry
or Mnrus multicaidis, for sale. Os all tlie va
rieties of Mulberries for silk, this appears most
eminently entitled to preference, and since its
introduction into France seems destined to re
; place every where the common W hite Mulber
ry lor the nourishment of silk worms, such is
its superiority over all otlc-rs. The tree is
j beautiful and oi a rapid growth, and will thrive
I well in almost any situation, and a few years
are suliie.icnt to raise considerable fields of them
in lull vigor, surtieient to support an immense
number of silk r.urms. The raising of silk is
as easy as tlie raising of wheat and much less j
laborious. For a number of years past it has ,
been a regular and profitable employment of j
many ot the farmers of Connecticut, during the j
early part of the summer, anil is emphatically 1
a business of the farmer—of the cottage a
simple labor, in which females and children
who do not essentially aid in supporting a fam
ily may turn their services to profit. Every

mulberry and produce cocoons, and for a trifle i
can procure a pamphlet which will give them j

TO PRENTBRS.
E WHITE A WM. HAGER, respectfully
• inform the Printers of the United States,
to whom they have been individually known
as established letter founders, that they have
now formed a co-partnership in said business,
and an extensive experience, they hope to be
able to give satisfaction to all who may favor
thorn with their orders.
The introduction of machinery, jn place of
the tedious and unhealthy process of easting
type by hand, a desideratum by the European
founders, was by American ingenuity, a heavy
expenditure of time and money on the part of
our senior partner, first successfully accom
plislied. Extensive use of the machine-cast
letter, has fully tested and established its su
periority i» every particular, over those cast
by the old process.
The letter foundry business will hereafter
be carried on by the parties before named, un
der the firm of White, Hager & Cos. Their
Specimen exhibits, a complete series, from
Diamond to Sixty-four Lines Pica. The Book
aud News type being in the most modern style.
