A weekly paper, devoted, to Literature, and. the Fine Arts; the Drama; the Fashions-, Tales; Essays; Biographical Sketches; the History of Women-, Harmless Satire; Reviews of New Works, and embellished with superior En gravings; Fine Wood Cuts; Plates of the Fashions; and, Music. Price $3, payable in advance. rpHE PARLOUR M AGAZINE is now in L the meridian of its popularity, and as in spiring hopes without a shadow, and cloudless prospects without a horizon, continue to cheer it on its way, we may reasonably anticipate for it a long day of triumph. Forgener.il appearance, mechanical arrange ment, and typographical execution, it may just ly assert its claims to rank among the most beautiful periodicals in the United States. The Literary department is contributed toby many of the ablest writers in the country—men whose names, if they gave us permission to use them, would save us the trouble ot circulating our claims on the public through the medium of a prospectus. For selections, the literary gardensof all A merica and hall Europe are open to ns; so that if we fail in this particular, the defect must be only attributed to our own want of taste. The “Fashions” shall meet with all due at tention. We have made arrangements to ob tain the earliest intelligence from London and Paris, in respect of the various changes, which shall be inserted as soon as received The PARLOUR MAGAZINE shall be oc casionally embellished with beautiful Engrav ingsupon interesting subjects; and platesof the newest fashions, plain or colored, as circumstan ces will permit: besides wood cuts in great va iiety,and apiece of original or well selected Music, at least twice a month. O’ Highly finished portraits of all the creat British and American poets,from Chaucer down wards, are iai preparation, and will appear in the Magazine from time to time, with a general critique on the author’s works, annexed to each: the head and review of Shakespeare will be forthcoming in February—Bryant’s will fol low. To this paragraph we would especially* call the readers attention, as the undertaking is one of great interest, expense and labor. The likenesses shall all be taken from portraits by the best masteis. The PARLOUR MAGAZINE is printed on super-royal paper, in quarto form, and stitched in a handsome cover. JNO. M. MOORE Office, 67 Liberty-street, New-York. proposals I NOR publishing a Miscellaneous Paper, to be entitled ; ‘THE ALCHYMIST.” To be devoted to Literature, Science and the Mar vellous.

OR THE NEW YORK MONTHLY MAGAZINE TH I S Periodical having passed into the hands of the undersigned, will hereafter be issued with punctuality on the first of every month, and in a style of typographical execu tion, which it is designed shall not be surpassed by any similar Periodical in this country. The proprietors will use their endevors to avoid the examples of their predecessors, in liberal prom ises and scanty fulfilments. The work is here after to depend, rather upon the character -which it shall be able to acquire, than upon extraordi nary announcements of the prospective excel lence to which it is to arrive. The Editor will receive in its subversion the constants assist ance of his brother Willis Gaylord Clark, of Philadelphia; and no exertions will be left un employed to render the work honorable to American Periodical Literature, and accepta ble to the public, whose patronage is only so far solicited as it shall seem to be deserved. The original papers—which it is designed shall be so varied, as to form a combination of the solidand useful with the entertaining and agree able—will be from literary’ pens of established reputation, (both athome and abroad,) in dif ferent cities and portions of the United States In addition to the original papers, liberal space will be devoted, under the head of Liter ary Notices, to brief and candid reviews of new works, of proper distinction, with such extracts as may be necessary to add interest, or to evince the justice of the accompanying criticism A Monthly Compendium will also be given, comprising, in a succinct form, all events of importance which may have occurred during the month, with such remarks, or illustrative comments, as they may demand. The general intelligence of the several States—political, sta tistical, and domestic—arranged under their separate heads, will be embraced in this depart ment. Brief Obituary Notices of eminent per sons who may* have deceased during the month, will likewise be given. The Editor’s Table will be devoted to the familiar discussion of such local or geneal mat ters, as could not, with propriety, be classed under the above named heads. If an earnest desire to raise up a National Periodical which shall do honor to American Literature —if unwearied industry and exertion on the part of the conductors—the employment in its pages of much of the best literary* talent of the country —if the beauty of execution, and early and punctual transmission, can insure its succe it is confidentlybelieved ' hatthe Knick erbocker Magazine will attain '•> general favor LEWIS GAYLOitD CLARK, CLEMENT M. EDSON. TYPE FOUNDRY: E. WHITE & WM. HAGER. KESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of the United States, to whom they have long been individually known as Letter Found ers, that they have now formed a Copartner ship in said Business, and hope from their uni ted and extensive experience, to be able togive full satisfaction to all who may favor them with their orders. The introduction of Machinery, iu place of the tedious and unhealthful process of casting type by hand, a desideratum fell by the Eurm pean and American founders, was* by Ameri can ingenuity, and at a heavy expenditure of time and money, on the part of our senior part ner, first successfully accomplished. Exten sive machine cast letter has fully tested and es tablished its superiority in every particular over that cast by the old process. The Letter Foundry Business will be carried on by the parties before named, under the firm of WHITE, HAGAR & CO. Their specimen exhibits a complete series from Diamond to 14 lines Pica; the Book and News Type being in the most modern and light style. WHITE, HAGAR & CO. are agents for the sale of the Smith’s Printing Presses,which they can furnish to their customers at the Manufac turer’s prices. Chases, Cases, Composing Sticks, Ink and every article used in the Printing business, kept for sale, and furnished at short notice. Old Type taken in exchange for new at 9 cents per pound. N. B.—Newspaper proprietors who give the above three insertions, will be entitled to five dollars in such articles as they ms , select from onr specimen. E. WHITE. New-York, August 7. WM. HAGAR. PROPOSALS. For Publishing in the Town of Wetumpka, Al abama, a weekly paper to be entitled the WETUMPKA TIMES. FIYHETown ot Wetumka being situated at JL the head of Steam Boat navigation on the Coosa river, and being justly estimated as an important point where thecornmerceof an exten sive, rich productive district of the country must concentrate; a paper being deemed by the sub scriber necessary to the people who reside in the Town, and to those who must trade there, as a sort of Messenger between the agricultural and commercial population—he, therefore proposes i to establish a Journal in the Town of Wetump ka, under the title which heads this prospec tus. The object of the Times is not to effect any party views whatever, and therefore, will not be the organ of any faction, or the tool of any party but wilibe devoted to the dissemination of correct and useful information and to the main tenance of the rights and interests of the peo ple. Its columns will at all times be open to men of all parties and all opinions—also to a frank, free and full discussion of all the politi cal questions vitally affecting the interestsand well being of National the Government and the cause of liberty against anarchy and misrule. A summary view of all important events . happening in any part of the United states, and s a summary of ail foreign intelligence whether ! civil or political, deemed to be of an important ; or interesting character, together with a correct ; account of the Market of , this and other places I will be sevisedby the practical merchant, and I published weekly. It will bethe endeavor of the publisher tofurnish J his patrons with all important news on any and ; every subject calculated to benefit the public, ; and to present them with such original and se- > lected articles as may be of an instructive or en tertaining nature. He, also pledges himself, to spare no exertion;, on his part lo render the Times worthy the patronage of an enlightened and generous community. TERMS. I The Times will be issued on a Superroyal shei at $3 50 in advance—s 4if paid within 1 six n><. ' ths—or 5 dollars at the close of a year. ■ Adverti..°ments will be inserted at the usual i rates. HENRY LYON. , H c’iwwpZra, /lm>. 22<Z 1835. TO THE PUBLIC, subscriber, having purchased the i -®- Southern Agriculturist from its late Edi- > tor and Proprietor, Mr. John D. Legare, soli i cits the support of the friends of Agriculture, i and of the interests connected with it, through- I out the Southern States. He has published . this work for Mr. Legare from its commence ment, in the year 1828, and he is th us practical ly acquainted with the mode in which it should beconducted. Its publication will be continue! on the same Zerwtsand in the same manner as heretofore, with such improvements as his ex perience may suggest. As the subscriber is solicitous to make this Journal the vehicle for disseminating useful in formation, not only with regard to established systems of Husbandry, but also experimental efforts in Agriculture and Horticulture, he in vites free nnd unrestrained communications from all persons occupied in these pursuits.— Let no one imagine that solitary facts or iso lated experiments aretoo trivial to be commu nicated. All systematic knowledge is but the aggregate ofhninble particulars; and Science, iu every department, is brought to perfection, not through the instrumentality of a single ex traordinary mind, but by the contributions of particulars by many individuals, and generally alter the lapse of many years. He is desirous, therefore, to have as many facts to record as ean befurnished; andfromthe Planter, who issys teinatic in his experimental labors, an account of his failures as well as of Ids successful ef forts, will be acceptable. If the last are worthy ot being recorded that they maybe imitated, the first merit to be noted in order to be shunned. 1 he Subscriber hopes that this appeal to his fellow-citizens of the South, will not be iu vain. It would be a reproach to our Planters to suffer this Periodical to meet, the fate of the Southern Review. Os the last it may be justly said, that it was suffered to fall, when it was not onlvrear ing for us a well merited lame as a literary people, but it was also vindicating the Southern character and Southern habits from the unjust aspersions which have been so liberally bestow ed upon us out of our section of country. The “ SOUTHERN A GRICULTURIS T’ in some nieasure supplies the place of the Southern Re view, so far as regards the circumstances last alluded to. It serves as a Register not only of methods ofHusbandry, but alsoof facts relating m our system es Slavery. The subjects of the discipline, the treatment, the characters of our Slaves, are fairly suited to its pages, and con stitute topics as interesting and important as any which can engage either our own attention or the attention of those abroad, who feel a legit imate interest in our concerns. The Subscriber begs leave, in conclusion, to remark, that if he had not undertaken to con tinue the publication of this Periodical, it most probably would have been cither removed from our citv,or been suspended. Whether it will be in hispower tocontinue it, will depend not only on the pecuniary but the Literary Con tributions of Southern' Planters. He confident ly now leaves this matter in their hands, feei ng a full assurance that there is wanting on he part of our Planters, neither the liberality nor mental energies necessary to sustain the Southern Agriculturist. A. E. MILLER. Charleston, S.C., Dec. 1, 1834. THE SILK CULTURIST? Executive Committee of the Hartford Ji*. County Silk Society, have commenced a publication, called the Silk Culturist and Far mers Manual. The object of the publication is to disseminate a through knowledge of the cultivation of the ■ Mulberry Tree, in all iis varieties—the rearing of Silk Worms—the production of Cocoons, and the reeling of Silk, in the most approved method. The importance of this knowledge will appear from the fact that the nett profits oi | of landdevoted to the culture of Silk, is double, if not triple, tothat derived from any other crop which can be put upon it. It is also a fact,that I very moderate farmer tan raise several hun . dred dollars worth ofsilk, without interfering with his ordinary agricultural operations. But ' in order to avail himselfofthis facility to obtain I competency and wealth, which our soil and climate have given him, he must possess him self of information on the subject—for without it his attemps will be fruitless. It is, therefore the object of the Committee to diffuse this in formation as extensively as possible, and at the cheapest rate. The publication will contain a complete manual or directory from sowing the seed to reeling the Silk, together with such facts and experiments, as will enable farmers to raise Silk, and prepare it for market, without further knowledge or assistance. It will also contain interesting matter on agricultural sub jects in general. Terms.—TheCulturist will be published in monthly numbers of Eight Quarto Pages, at Fifty Cents a year.
