,'lssisteel by many of the most Popular Unites.
Sii ae the publication of the May number, the
demand for tin* Ladies' Companion lias been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement ot 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 issuinrr
of the seventh number of the Volume ; and at
this time but very few complete sets remain on
band, to supply the numerous orders which are
daily received from every section of the Unit
ed States.
In cunsequenee of this great unforeseen in
crease of new subscribers, lie lias determined to
double the number of impressions for the sub
sequent year; while he most gratefully appre
ciates the unprecdcnted encouragement ex
tended to tin' Ladies' Companion, and at the
same time lie begs to assure the readers of the
magazine and the public in general, Hint it is
his ardent resolution to meet it with a corres
ponding liberality, on liis part to merit its con
tinuaucc.
Splendid Steel Em.ravinos by our best
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 of reading than any oilier 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.
Its Literary Character! Will under
go considerable change, as the publisher of
tin- Ladies’ Companion, in order to show bis
appreciation of the public favor already extend
ed to him so liberally, lias secured the aid -ji
Mrs. Ann S. S ri.piii.Ns,
late Editor of the “Portland Magazine,” and
author of a series of the most beautiful and
popular tales ever 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 v liich is the
glory of our country.
The Misicai. Department, is under the
supervision of Mr. J. Watson, whose qualifica
tions for the task are too well known to require
our testimony.
Tli is department of the Ladies Companion
has evereomuuiiided u large share of attention,
and has been looked upon with no little inter
est by its renders, 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 is
placed, to make that portion of the magazine
allotted to Music more than ever deserving of
the countenance of every lover of music. It
has ever been and will continue to be the de
sire to have all pieces of Music printed rorrtci
\hj anil free from errors. •
I The Work in General. Over every de
partment an equally careful supervision will
lie strictly exercised by the Editors, and all ap
propriate expenditures will he liberally bestow
ed, as il is the design oF the publisher, iviih the
aid of his contributors anil the advice of his
friends to make tlie Ladies ' Coaepe;nion distin
guished for tile brnnty and aeruriii i/ of its typo
graphy—the variety and high tone of its Hteretry
arteries—the i/iialily anil reel nr of its music —and
the unequalled splendor of its Pictorial Em
bellish M ENTS.
ll is the determination pf the publisher to use
every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies'Companion has obtained. For four
years lie has steadily pursued a course of im
provement, and he flatters himselt'that his pres
sent facilities arc such as to give the Ladies
Companion eminent advantages over all other
publications of its character.
From the foregoing it will he perceived that
the Ladies' Companion’ embraces every de
partment within the range of Itcllrs- Le tter s and
the Cine .le ts ; and no exertions or expense will
he deemed too great to render tlie work equal
to any other extent. The flattering 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'
Companion to the support ot’ the public gener
ally. There is net trnrk that gires its readers
such a oreeet return for 'lerir subscription.
The Prize Articles will all he published
during the year. These articles will comprise
the successful candidates for the premiums of
eerie thonsanel dollars 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.

Tiiis magazine has not yet received enough
of patronage to sustain it; yet the Editor has
not despaired of being able to give it a firm
foundation. The effort to establish it has, at
least awakened a lively interest in its behalf. j
throughout the State; and a very slight exer

'SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER.I
rjA IIIS is a monthly Magazine devoted chief- j
J. ly to Li rERATi iii'., hut occasionally find- !
i ing room also for articles that fall within the j
scope of Science ; and not professing ail en
! tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its
matter lias been, as it will continue to be, in !
the main, original.
Party Polities and Controversial Theology. ,
1 ns far as possible .are zealously excluded. They j
i are sometimes so blended with discussions in 1
I literature or in moral science, otherwise unob
j jectionahle, as to gain admittance for the sake
| of the more valuable matter to which they ad- I
I here : but whenever that happens, they arc in- \
j rieleateil, only; not primary. Thcy[are dross, j
| tolerated only because it cannot well be ser
| veil from the sterling ore wherewith it ,s incor
porated.
Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy
j their due span* in the work : and it is :he F.d
itor s aim that they should have a threefold
tendency—to convey, in a condensed form.
; such valuable truths or interesting incidents as
| are embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct
; the render's attention to books that deserve to
!he rea —and to warn him against wasting time
1 and money upon that large number, which mer
lit only to be burned. In this age of publica
tions that by their variety and multitude dis
i tract and overwhelm every undiscriininating
student, impartial criticism, governed by
j the views just mentioned, is one of the most
inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to
j him who dues irisle to discriminate.
Ess.aas, and Talks, having in view utility
or amusement, or both— Historical sketcii
! i s — and Reminiscences of events too minute
lor History, yet elucidating it. nail heighten
ing its interest, —may he regarded as forming
the staple of the work. And of indigenous
Poetisv enough is published—sometimes of no
, mean strain—to manifest and to cultivate the
! growing poetical taste and talents of our conn
. .
The times appear, for several reasons, to de
mand such a work—and not one alone, but
many. The public mind is feverish and irri
tated still, from recent political strifes : —The
sort, assuasive influence of Literature is need-:
ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrila
j t ton. Vice ami folly are rioting abroad —They
I should he driven by indignant rebuke, or lash-,
ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno
rance lords it. over an immense proportion of
our people : Every spring should be set in
motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in- ;
j crease tlieir number ; so that the great enemy j
1 of popular government may no longer brood,
like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of
our country. And to accomplish all these ends,
what more powerful agent can he employed,
I than a periodical, on the plan of the -Messenger;
! if that plan be but carried out in practice ?
j Tin* Soi l'll peculiarly requires such an a
gent. In all the Union, south of Washington,
there are but two Literary periodicals ! N«rth
j ward of that city, there are probably at least
twenty-five or thirty '. Is this contrast justified t
, by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or
! I lie actual literary taste, of the Southern peo
ple, compared with those of the Not hern ■
No: for ill wealth, talents, and taste, we may
| justly claim at least an equality with our bn'th
-1 ren ; and n domestic institution exclusively
i our own. beyond all doubt affords us. if we
I choose, twice the leisure for reading and ivri
j ting, which they enjoy.
I It was from deep sense of this local want, 1
that the word Somn.iis was engrafted on the j
name of this periodical : and not with any de- ’
I sign to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate
J supposed local interests. Far from anv such
thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to see
I the North and South bound endearingly toweth
I or forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind
ness and affection. Far from mediating hostil
ity to the North, he has already drawn, and he
! hopes hereafter to draw, much of iiis choicest
matter thence : and happy indeed will he deem
| himselt, should his pages, by making each re
: gion know the other better, contribute in any !
j essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds
; that now threaten the peace of both, and to i
I brighten and strengthen the sacred tics of fa

THE NEW YORKER.
ON the 24tli day of March, 1838, the sub-s
scribers commenced the Fifth Volume j
of their journal, both Folio and Quarto edition. ,
No endeavors have thus far been spared to rerf- j
der it wortiiy the patronage and esteem of the ■
public, and a corresponding spirit will animate i
our future exertions. Recent arrangements
have been effected, securing an accession of!
talent and energy in the editorial conduct of j
the work, and insuring greater variety as well j
as strength in tiiis department of the enter- I
prise. It has been deemed a lesson of experi
ence that tlie union of all the branches of edit- i
oriql 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, anil every
subject of interest—is not so well calculated
i to secure the highest efficiency in these vuri
! ous departments as a system embraces a partial
though not absolut” division of intellectual la
bor. Under this conviction, the active assist
j ante as well as counsel of a gentleman favora
l bly known in the higher walks of Literature,
; have been secured for the ensuing year, and
| that portion of the paper more especially known
i as Literary, will be placed under his charge,
j The political department, with a general su
) pervision of the entire work, will remain with
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
! cially upon Dr. Eldridge, who will also lend
i his aid in advancing the literary reputation of
the paper. It is bclived by thisarranginont a
more complete and effective knowledge of the
subjects treated of will be insured, while a
more leal and palpable variety—a variety of
mannt ras 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 (1,000 to 0.000 copies per week,
throngh every State and city, and 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 by two objects: the one of combining
the greatest practicable amount of useful and
elevating inhumation with the highest general
interest; the other, of disseminating truth so
tar 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 ot this or that party, clique, or taction.
I who the rin literature or politics. In conform
ing to tiiis outline, great care is taken against
tailing into the pernicious error—more fatal
than the one we oppose—of suppressing or
withholding important truth because it”lias
been made the theme of partisan conflict- Jn
regard to literature, we shall freely express our
own opinions, but accord a fa r hearing to
whatever may stand opposed to them, hi poli
tics, 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
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 tairly lie expected from any partisan paper.
A concise account of an political movements—
conventions, nominations, Ac.—will be
as well as 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 wc shall 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-Books,
and to win readers and pJftrons without offer
ing them a bribe of a dozen romances ns a temp
tation.

TO OUR PATRONS AND THE PUBLIC.
1 he great commercial revulsion of last year,
and the ruinous derangement of thu currency
consequent thereon, combined with the great i
inconvenience to which we were subjected bv
the suppression of Small Notes, absolutely '
forced upon us an enhancement of our price, j
originally tor, 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. I nder that impression, we now make
the following modifications of our terms of
subscription, viz: for our Quarto edition, Three
Dollars and a Half m 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 Fidio paper will be afforded for !
1 wo Dollars and a Half per annum in advance;
five copies for Ten Dollars. These terms ap- !

PROPOSALS
For publishing, by subscription, a work to he
entitled
Flora Ueorgienfiis.
TIIIS 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—its emblem,
language, Ac. Such a work is much needed, j
at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We
have no text book in Botany, calculated to
render the science attractive. Such as we
have, are nothing more than a few disconnected
facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a
few leaves, roots, flowers, Ac. 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 over pages treating of sap,
! alburnum, cambium, and the like. This work
! will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes
and orders in the Linnenn system, the method
j of analysing floxvers, and, proceed next, to the
{examining, collecting and arranging of them
i into an herbarium. A tore for the science be
} ing thus implanted, it must and trill increase,
| and urge them on to further and further investi
i gations.
! Wc intend that our work shall bo, at once, a
; text book for schools—a pleasing companion
: for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful
| friend and compr.nion for gentlemen in their
{travels, their daily rambles, Ac. Finally, it
i will he enriched with every species of informa-
I tion which can render such a work entertaining
! and instructive.
j We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle
! men throughout the State, in furnishing us with
information concerning the names, locality and
, habits of plants in their immediate vicinity.—
j Such information will be gratefully and proper
ly acknowledged.
i Postmasters are requested to act as agents in
I receiving and forwarding us subscriber’s names,
; as early as the Ist November.
' The work will contain from sto 700 pages,

AND GARDENERS.
Cl R. GARRETSON, 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 with
every article in bis 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
I Seed establishments there, and their qualities
being tested to his own satisfaction, their accu
racy and vitality arc expressly warranted.
The vending of Seeds is a business deserv
ing much greater attention from the mercan-J
tile community than is at present bestowed up- I
on it. There is scarcely a farmer or planter i
who would nottpurchase an assortment of su- I
perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them i
j easily. And as they yield a handsome profit, j
some explanations may be requisite in regard to j
making sales, Ac. They are usually supplied I
by the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit
oi 100 per cent, or more, at the New York 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 §1 to $25
—the latter being sufficient to crop a garden
of one acre. Or they can be put into 6 1-4 and 1
12 1-2 rent papers, neatly labelled, and assort- 1
ed suitable tor a retail dealer,each of which by j
the quantity will be charged so as to allow a j
profit of 80 per cent, on the New York retail j
prices. Any one wishing to engage in the !
vending of seeds, and not having experience, I
by addressing the proprietor will have the ne- i
eessary information given, and they may feel j
confident they will he served with none but ar- !
tides of the very best quality.
Tlie Proprietor has further to state, that he i
is enabled to furnish all kinds of Books on Ag
riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture, Aboricul
ture, Rural Economy, Ac. Ac. Also, Agri
cultural Implements of Husbandry and Garden
Tools of every description. Also, Fruit and
Ornamental Trees and Herbaceous Flowering
Plants, Roses and Green House Plants of a very
great variety ; all of which can be packed so
as to be transported to any part of the United
States, West Indies or elsewhere. Great at
tention has been paid to obtaining both from
foreign countries and at home, the finest agri
cultural seeds, all of which can be furnished in
large quantities, and whore the purchase is
made for cash a discount will be allowed. A
liberal credit willgbe given where a good under
standing is established. There will be no dif
ficulty in arranging this point to mutual con
venience, and on this, and ex'ery other subject, I
the suggestions of correspondents will receive I
the fullest consideration.
MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS.
50,000 PLAN TS of the Chinese Mulberry
lor Min us multicaulis, for sale. Os all the va
rieties of Mulberries for silk, this appears most
' eminently entitled to preference, and since its
introduction into France seems destined to re
j place every where the common White Mulber-
I ty tor the nourishment of silk worms, such is
( its superiority over all others. The tree is
beautiful and of a rapid growth, and will thrive
well in almost any situation, and a few years
are sufficient to raise considerable fields of them
in lull vigor, sufficient to support an immense
number of silk worms. The raising of silk is
as easy as the raising of wheat and much less
laborious. For a number of years past it has
! been a regular and profitable employment of
many of the farmers of Connecticut, during the
early part of the summer, and is emphatically
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
family of the most limited means can raise the
mulberry and produce cocoons, and for a trilie
can procure a pamphlet which will give them
the necessary information of reeling, Ac. The
plants can be packed so as to be transported to
any part of the Union and will be furnished in
quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod
erate rates. Nov. 16

TO PRINTERS.
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 fuvor
them with their orders.
The introduction of machinery in place of
tlie tedious and unhealthy process of cksting
type-by hand, a desideratum the European
founders, was by American ingenuity, a heavy
expenditure of time and money on the part ot
our senior partner, first successfully accoin
plished. Extensive use of the machine-cast
letter, has fully tested and established its su
periority in 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
and News type being in the most modern style
White, Hager & Cos. are Agents for the sale
of the Smith and Rust Printing Presses, with
which they can furnish their customers at man
ufacturers’prices; Chases, Cases, Composing
Sticks, Ink, and every article used in the print
ing business, kept for sale and furnished on
short notice. Old type taken inVxchangc for

tlie above three insertions, will be entitled to

PHILADELPHIA SATURDAY COURIER
ri~IIIE vast patronage which has been awar
-I- ded the Courier is the best evidence of
its approval. It has the largest subscription
j list in this country. It is the largest and chea
pest Family Newspaperever issued in the U
j nited States, containing articles in Literature,
| Science and the Arts ; Internal Improvement,
Agriculture, in short every variety of topics
usually introduced into a public Journal. Giv
ing full accounts of sales, markets and news
; of the latest dates.
i Without interfering with the usual variety,,
j the Courier has presented ten Jvolumes of the
j most popular literature of the day within the
last year. This feature puts into the hands of
its patrons the most entertaining and popular
current literature, amounting each year to six
times the price paid for subscription—in addi
tion to the immense quantity of other matters
"which appear in its columns. In the contin
uation of this feature we shall endeavor to pre
sent new and popular works with such expedi
tion that the publication cannot be anticipated
in other sources. In the future numbers wc
shall draw from the pens of such writers as.
DTsraeli, Miss Mitford,
Capt. Maryatt, Leitch Ritchie,
Miss London, J. R. Buckstone r
Charles Dickins, Barry Cornwall,
Cornelius Webb, Douglass Jerrold,
Theodore Hook, Crofton Croker;
Thomas Campbell, Mrs. S. C. Hall,
Haynes Bayly, Mrs. Gore,
And, in short, from the whole range ofthe
current literature of Europe, with which our
arrangements will supply us at as early a mo
ment as they can be received in the country.
Besides we have the pleasure of numbering
among our contributor* many of (he most dis
tinguished writers of our country, from whose
pens ORIGINAL TALES, POEMS. SONGS
NARRATIVES AND SKETCHES! will con
tinue to add interest to its columns.
The Architectural beauty of many of the
PUBLIC BUILDINGS of this city is prover
bial. Believing it will be acceptable to our
numerous patrons to be presented with EN
GRAVED ILLUSTRATIONS of those edi
fices, we are engaged in bringing out a com
plete series, which will form a collection that
may well be termed, THE LIONS OF PHIL
ADELPHIA. Where it is expedient, we ac
company the engravings with such descriptions
of size and facts of history, as may be of inter
est.
The Courier is published at {he low price of
Two Dollars. For this small sum subscribers
get valuable and entertaining matter each week
enough to fill a common book of two hundred
and fifty pages, and equal to fifty two volumes
a year, and which is estimated to be rend, wPek
ly»hy at least two hundred thousand people,
scattered in all parts of the couhtry, from
Maine to Florida, and from the sea board to the
lakes.
