In Literature, it will aim to unite the Beau

questions at issue between Liberty and Slavery.
The extensive subscription of the Weekly
lira, which, during the year about to olosc, has
roaohed the number of twenty-eight thousand,
must make it an eligible medium for advertisers.
The Daily Era will be issued on a sheet aB
large as that of the Daily National Intelligencer,
on the 2d day of January, 1854, and daily there
after, until the 1st of September, 1854, (or long
er, should Congress oontinue in session,) at
five dollars fok that period; and should
the result then warrant, the publication will
be resumed on the 1st of September following,
by the year.
As but sixteen days intervene between this
and the 2d of January, it is important that
subscriptions be forwarded at once.

THE LIVINO AGE has been abundantly honored
by the approbation of the best judges; it has
been pronounced to be sound and vigorous; various
and entertaining; full of spirit and life; uniting the
qualities which gratify the scholar, the philosopher,
and the man of business, with those which rocoin
mend it to their wivee and children. We shall now
endeavor to add to theee intrinsic excellences the
greater attractions of Art, and, beginning with 18*4,
Every Number vnll contain an Impression from
a beautiful Steel Plate.
The 61 Plates a year will alone be worth the prloe
of subscription.
This work is made up of the elaborate and stately
essays of the Edinburgh., Quarterly, and other Re
views; and Mark.woo* * noble criticisms on poetry,
his keen political commentaries, highly wrought
tales, and vivid descriptions of rural and mountain
scenery; and the contributions to literature, history,
and common life, by the sagacious Spectator, ths I
sparkling Examiner, the judicious Athenteum, th? !
busy and industrious IAterary Gazette, the sensibU
and comprehensive Bruannia. the sober and reaped
able Christian Observer; these are intermixed with
the military and naval reminiscences of the United
Service, and with the best articles of the Dublin Urn
vtrsun, New Monthly, Fraser's, Tait't,Atnsinortks,
Hood i, and Sporting Magazinu, and of Chambers
admirable Journal. We do not oonsider it beneatb
our dignity to borrew wit and wisdom from Pane A,
and, when we think it good enough, make use of ths
thunder of The Time*. We shall increase our vari
ety by importations from the continent of Europe,
and from the new growth of the British colonies.

NEW YORK CKNTKAL COLLEGE,
Located in the village ol McGrawvillc, la the rsnstf
ot < ortlund, new York, was founded 1m IMS, upon
the broad |triucl|iles of " E<inal H ijhts and Chrl?
liuu Reform," and is open lo all persons, ef both
sexes, of ?ood moral character.
IT has been the purpose of the Trustees of this
Rchrol, from the first, to make it both safo ar.d
inviting to StudeLta; and we believe wo may now
softly recommend it. under the supervision and car*
ol Provident Leonard G. Calkins, whose ability for
thst responsible office has been most bappily tested,
assist* d by a competent ' Board ol Instruction." Free
'from the unholy influence of larger towns, and per
vaded by moral influences, republican habits, and
Christian oxauuplc, aaaociated with manual labor, w*
think parents must foel a degree of security, begotten
by no other set of oircumstances.
One arrangement in this Institution, not to ba over,
looked in this day ol "public speaking," ia a Rhetor
ical Class, with daily exercises in extemporaneoua
sjieaking, under the careful training of the President.
Tho student of small means, aspiring to a thorough
intellectual education by hia own anergiaa, will find
in this College sympathy and aid in his arduoua and
noble work.
The Manual Labor Department of the School ia
under the supervision of Mr. Luther Wellington, a
practical farmer, a kind and benevolent man, on a
farm of ono hundred and fifty-seven acres.
A primsry school is taught by .Mi s Keziah King,
a thorough and efficient teacher, for the accommoda
tion of any one who may but be prepared to inter
the Academic Department.
' The boarding hall will he conducted by Mr Lyman
1 Butts, who, together with an amiable family, will
! make boarding both cheap and pleasant.
The College year ia divided into three terms; The
first term, of fourteen weeks, will open on the first
Thursday in September.
The second, or Winter term, will commence oa tho
second Thursday iu December, and continue fourteen
{ weeks.
The third and last, or Summer term, will begin on
the second Thursday in April, and close at the Col
lege Commencement, on the socond Wednesday in
July.

school, should bo addressed to President L. G Cal

The Lamplighter will shed msny a ray around fire
sides and in hearths where now it mar be there ia
much of darkness and despair ?Dt.Uif Br*, Boston.
The life of I it,tic Oerty, ss portrayed in th* Lamp
lighter, is as deeply affecting ns the best sketches of
Pickens Few persons having commenced this work
I will be willing to put it aside until they have gone
through. The author, whoevor sha may be, has nw
rearon to withhold her name, as tha book would do
credit to any writer.? L)nt/y Advrrtimr, Bottom.
The Lamplighter teaches important truths, which
cannot be too frequently impressed upon tha minds
of all; and no one can study its instructive and ffcaci
nating pages, without being made better by ita kind
ly influences. Its author has evidently a highly cnl
tivated and refined, an woll as an original and imagi
native mind, and writos with the esse, the classical
correctness of diction, and that choice selection of
terms, which indicate the good English scholar. In
this rvspcct, the Lamplighter is much superior to Un
cle Tom's Cabin, whose inelegances meet us at eve
ry turn.? lin*ton Ihttlv At/ni
