DANA, W M. CULLEN BRYANT, II. W. LONGFELLOW, CHARLES F. HOFFMAN, T. C. GRATTAN. Gi RAUAM'S is the oldest and most popular W of the American Literary JVagazines. The number forJanaary, 1843, will be the first of the 35th volume. Its long and universally successful career, from its commencement with a few hun dred subscribers, until the present time, when it has a circulation of fifty thousand copies a month, is perhaps as good an evidence of its great and in creasing merit as the publisher hns it in his power to offer. To his old subscribers, he trust3 no as surance are nocessary of his determination lo maintain it3 present ascendancy over all the rival periodicals of the country. The engagement, du ring tho pan year, of snch men as "Bryant, Coor tn, Dana, Longfellow, Hoffman, Man-cur, etc., of high reputation in the literary world, as regular contributors, in addition to & previous list embracing many of the first names in the nation, is a sufficient guarantee that the work will continue to be the principle medium of communication, be tween the best aothors and the publio. ; Among the attractions of the thirty-fifth volume, will be several Tales byMrJ. t Cooper, Jlr (Jrattoii, Jlr Hoffman,- Mr Herbert, .Vim Leslie, 'Mary Oarers,' Mrt, Embury, Mr Ellet and Mrt Ste phens; poems by Mr Bryant, Mr Dana, Mf Jjongfellow, Mr Street, Mrs JSbc Smith, Mrs Osgood, and Mrs Sigourney; essays by Mr Fay, Mr Jones, Mr Tuckerman, Mr Pie, etc. etc. " Here follows a more full list of the names of contributors, the most distinguished of the country which we omit for want of room. ' Graham's Lady's and Gentleman's Magazine has been from its establishment more than any other the favorite periodical of the greater sex. Though its plan doas not entirely exclude articles of the most important character, eoch as have rai sed Jllackwood's and some other foreign journals to their high influence and -reputation, its pages will be principally devoted to what is usually term ed light literature. ' It will be distinguished from other publications of similar aims by the literary and artistic merit of its contents. While those of other works are nnknown or anonymous, the con- I tributors to this are Uie most eminent authors of our age and country; the very eieators, founders, of our National Literature. Especially it it cel ebrated as containing the choicest productions of the finest female writers of the time. Eveiy num ber contains gems which may be appealed to with pride by the s;x as vindicating their intellectual ernin' iicu. , of Science; and professing no, disdain for taste ful elections, thoug'a its matter hasbsen as it will continue to be, in the main onginaf. Party Politics and controversial Theology as far as possible, are jealous ly excluded. They arc sometimes so blended with discussions in literature : moral science, otherwise unob jectionable, as lo gain admittance .ror the sake of the more valuaible matter to which they adhere; but whenever that happensjthey arc incidental only: not ruiMAEA'. They are dross, tolerated only because it cannot well be severed from the .sterling ore wherewith it is incorporated. Reviews and critical Notiees occupy their due space in the work: and it is the Editor's trim 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 reader's attention to books dutt .deserve to be read, and to warn him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which merit only to be burned. In this age of publications, that by their variety and multitude dis tract and overwhelm every undiscrimi nating student, impartial criticism, governed by the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and in dispensable of auxiliaries, to hiin w.ho does wih to di scriminate. Essays and Tales, having in view itility or amusement, or both Histori cal Sketches and Reminiscences of ve nts too minute for History, yet eluci dating it, and heighteningitsinterest, may be regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous ror. TRY, enough is published sometimes of no mean strain to manifest and cul tivate the growing poetical taste and tal ents of our country. The times appear, for several rea sons, lo demand such a work not one alone, but many. The public mind is feverished and irritated still, from re cent political strifes. The soft, assua- ! sive influence of Literature is needed, to allay that lever, and soothe that irri tation. Vice and folly are rioiing abroad they should be driven by indignant re buke, or lashed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts ' Ignorance lords it over an immense proportion of our people.
