Tho National Era ia a weekly newspaper, devoted to Literature and Politioa. Iu Literature, it iims to unite the Beautiful with tbo True, and to rnako both immediately HuhHorvicot to the praotioal purpobou of every day life. In Pcliticf, it advocates the Rights of Man, and the Equality of Right*, and opposes what ever violates or ten da to violate them, whether this be Involuntary Personal Servitude, Civil < Despotism, Spiritual Absolut'rfro, Class Legis lation, tho Selfishness of Capital, tho Tyranny of Combination, tbo Oppre^ion of a Majority, or tho Rxaations of l'arty. It hoi da no fellowship wit'i the Whig and Democratic organizations, believing that the main issues on whicli they have been arrayed against each other are obsolete or settled, and that they are now ohiefly used by tbo Sectional Interost of Slavery, to impair tho love erty natural to the American mind, ana to subjugate tho American Pooplo to its rule. Dis claiming all connootion with thom. it yet sym pathies with those of their adherents who aro honestly seeking through thom to advanoo the substantial interests ot the country, although it taunt believe that they bavo not chosen the better way. It is a supporter of the Independent Democ racy, which holds that tho Truths of tho Dec laration of Independence are practical, that in their light tho Constitution ot the Lnited States in to be interpreted, that to thom the laws and institutions and usages of the coun try should be conformed?a Party, whose motto is, Union, not for the sake of Union, but for tho Bako of Freedom and Progress; und Law, not for tho sako of Law, but for the Protection of Human Rights and Interests? tho only sure foundation of order and concord. In no senso is it the organ of a Party, or a more Party Paper, but absolutely " froo and independent," claiming to speak " br author ity for nobody except its editor, arid recogni sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its course and policy. The Eighth Volume of the Era will oom mence on the first of January ensuing, and be enlarged by tho addition of four columns. We havo neglected no moans that could promise to make it an agreeable companion for the House hold, and an ei&oient co-adjutor to tho enlight ed Politician. It has secured able correspond ents at home and abroad, and no journal in the oountry can surpass the Era as it respects contributors to its Literary Department. Tho Era publishes oondent^ea reports of the proceedings of Congress, explains moveihenla in that body, the oauees of whioh do not alwayB lie upon the Burfaoe, and from its position is enabled to keep a oonstant watch npon the ac tion of the Federal Government in relation to all questions at issue between Liborty and Slavery. The only journal at the seat of the Federal Government, representing the Anti-Slavery Sentiment of the Rcpublio, while the Pro Sla very Sentiment is represented here bjr four daily papers, nearly all of thom being liberally sustained by Governmental j>atr\%age, it askB the support of all who believe, in sincority, that the Union was formed to socure the blessings of Liberty, and not to perpetuate the curno oi Slavery.

The extensive subscription of the Weeluy Era, which, during the year about to closo, has reached the number of twenty-eight thousand, must make it an eligible modium for advertisers. The Daily Era will be issued on a sheet as 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 or, should Congress continue in session,) at KIVJC DOLLARS FOR THAT PERIOD) and should the result then warrant, the publication will be resumed on tho 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. Payment in advance will be invariably re quired. G. BAILEY.

THE LIVING AGE has been abundantly honored by the approbation of the best judges: it has been pronouueed to be sound and rigorous, various and entertaining; full of spirit and life; uniting ths qualities which gratify the scholar, the philosopher, and the man of businoss, with those which recom mend it to their wives and children. We shall now endeavor to add to these intrinsio excellences the greater attractions of Art, and, beginning with 1844, Every Number will contain an Impression from a beautiful Stetl Plate. The 62 Plates a year will alorf* be worth the pries of subscription. This work is made up of the elaborate and stately essays of the Edinburgh., Quarterly, and other Re views; and UlarltmjoAt 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 eommnn life, by the sagacious Spectator, th? sparkling Examiner, the judicious AtKrnauwi. th? busy and industrious Literary Gazr.tt*, the sensibli I and comprehensive liruarutta, the sober and respect able Christian Ob*erver; these are intermixed with the military and naval reminiscences of the UnUed Servter, and with the best articles of the Dtchltn U*i twiUy, Neto Monthly, Frtuer't, Tt*u' t.Auuworth't, Ilood'i, and Sporting Mngaxiiten, and of Chamber i admirable Journal. We do not consider it beneath our dignity to borrew wit and wisdom from Punch, and, when we think it good enough, make use of ths thunder of The Time*.
