in drrss. Hence the importance of an accredited
glide to the Fashions.
This usefal office, already filled for fourteen
years, with universal acceptance, by the I.idy s
11,10k, the publisher pledges himself to discharge in
future, in a style surpassingall his former efforts.
The ladies know perfect'y well that our Magazine
is tho highest authority in Fashion.
No lady considers herself well dressed who con
travenes this authority, and, in our own city, in 3.
York, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Louisville,

In future the figures will behrown into tasteful
groups, displaying the graces of dress to the best
advantage, and the back groundsof the plates will
present interesting views, designed by the first

As a further assurance of thorough excellence in
tlifs department, th'e pnblishsrbas secured the ser
vices of Miss LESLIE, who will illustrate the
Fashion Plates, in her usual felicitous and graph

P The pnblisher's correspondent in Paris is pos
sessed of such ample means of obtaining the real
and present Taris Fashions, and of transmitting
thsmi.t advance of all competitors, tfiatUic i ladies
may continue, as they have always done, to coj.y
from our plates what has received the sanction of
indisputable ton, the last, the newest, the best fash
ions, fresh from Paris.
The arrangements for producing a most br.lliant
and attractive series of Line and Mezzotint Ln
gravings are now complete. Pictures fresh from
, the easels of oar first rate American Artists, are
now actually in the hands of ths ablest American
engravers, tho subjects embracing not only the usu
al popular and domestic topics, bat others which
are interwoven into the very heartstrings of Amer
ican nationality, treating as they do of stirring tft-
cidenta in the glorious and heroic age of Amer
ica. With respect to the general literary and moral
tone of the Lady's Book, for 1843, it will main
t am its us jal consistent character of a domestic
' and fashionable family magazine. While such
contributors as Misslslie, Miss Sedgwick, Mrs
Hall, MraEmbury, MrsEFEllet, Mrs Sigour
nt?i Mrs V E Howard, Mrs Scba Smith, Mrs A
M F Annan, MrslJ Lee Hentz, Mrs Parsons, and
Mrs S J Hale continue their contributions, tho
r
beautiful and tho useful, all that charms the fancy
aftd all that mends the heart and. guides the best
affections of ournatare, will continue to adorn and
dignify our pages.
The lovers of historical romance, and those who
regard our nation's glory as the prime objects of
our nation's literature, will have their peculiar
tastes gratified by the cnntiibutions of Dr Robert M
Bird, the anthor of 'the Gladiator', 'Calvar' &c.
The admirers of Southern scenery and manners
will recognise with pleasure, among our correspond
ents, the name of W GilmoreSimma, the novelist,
author of 'Guy Rivers,' 'Yemasses,' &c.
Tho9ewho are partial to graceful, casy,noncha
halant, gentlemanly story telling, will always
hail with pleasure the monthly return of N P Wil
lis, the most piqnant, lively and fertile of all mag
azine writers.
The admirers of the high toned, moral and Jo
meftie Nouvellette, will recognise with pleasure,
among onr contributors, the name of T S Arthur",
author of Six Nights with the Washington rans,'
A.C. Contributions are also ready from the pens of
Professor Alexander Dallas Bache, late Principal
of the Philadelphia High School, Professor John
Sanderson, author of 'a Year in Paris,' Professor
John Frost, editor of Hhe Young People's Book.
Onr limits will not give us space enough to en
umerate the names of a tithe of our contributors.
Our list of foreign contributors is enriched with
the names rt ' .
Joanna Bailie, Mary Russell Mitford,
Mary Howitt, Maria Edgeworth,
lion. JVraC. Norton, .Vrs. S.C. Hall,
recognised in Europe as the elite of British female
authors.
The publisher's means of increasing the beauty
and value of the Lady's Book are accumnlating
year by year. To his already inestimable list of
contributors, he is constantly receiving accessions
both at home and abroad.
His arrangements with respect to Original
Paintings, from soh Artists as
Rothermel, Frankenstein, Croome,
Chapman, Jtfaclise, Huntingdon,
are now complete, and he numbers among the en
gravers whose services are constantly retained,
Tockcr, Smith, Warner,
Dick, Sadd, Ellis,
Classen, t?imbredge, Jones.
His whole system of arrangements with respect
to Fa3hion Plates i3 now developed and prrfectcd.
The Lady's Book will therefore continue to main
tain that proud pre-eminence in merit and in pop
ularity, which, fourteen years of nnintermitted at-tenti-non
tlw part of the publisher has earned it
will still remain, as heretofore, the favoiute of

GRAHAM'S is the oldest and most popular
of the American Literary .Magazines. The
number for January; 1843, will be the first of the
33th volame. Its long and universally successful
career, from its commencement with a few hon
dred subscribers, until the present time,hen 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 has it inhis power
to offer. To his old subscribers, he trusts no as
surance are .necessary of his determination to
maintain its present ascendancy over all the rival
periodicals of the coontry. The engagement, do
ring the past year, of snch men as Bar ant, Coop
er, Dana, Longfellow, Hoffman, Maxcur,
etc., of high reputation in the literary world, as
regular contributors, in addition to a 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 authors and the publio. Among
the attractions of the thirty-fifth volume, will be
s-weral Tales by Mr J. F. Cooper, Jlr Gralton,
Jr Hoffman, Mr Herbert, Miss Leslie, lMary
Oarers, Mrs, Embury, Mrs Ellet and Mrs Ste
phens; poems by Mr Bryant, Mr Dana, Mr
Jsongfelloir, Mr Street, Mrs Scba Smith, Mrs
Osgood, and Mrs Sigourney ; essays by Mr Fay,
Mr Jones, Mr Tuckerman, Mr Poe, etc. etc.
I Here follows a more full list of the names of
contributors, the most distinguished ol tne country !
Graham's Lady's and Gentleman's Magazine
Lady
has been from its es'ablisdiment more than any
other the fat-orite periodical of the greater sex.
Though its plan does not entirely exclude articles
-of the most important character, sach as have rai
sed Blackwood'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. VVhil? those of
other works are unknown qr anonymons, the con
tributors to this are the most eminent amhors of
our age and country ; the very cieators, founder!1,
of our National Literature. Especially is it cel
ebrated as containing the choicest prodoctions of
the finest female writers of the time. Kveiy num
ber contains gems which may be appealed to with
pride by the sex as vindicating their intellectual
eminence. - .
SfLEVDIO E.MISr.LMPITMENTS.
In the department of Engravings it is well known
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed any J
pertefltcal work vr poblisjisd. in 4f4 wny ot
cr country. 1 he nignesi amoiwon oi rivui jmu- i
lisher3 seem thus far to have bacn to mai-tiiti a j
respectable imitation ot the nimsrou cosvly and j
beautiful works of art with whicti the successive ,
nunibeT3 of this journal have been graced. In the;
coarse of the succeeding volumes many important '
new features will be introd
incea. martin anu oacia ,
the most celebmed Mezzotint Engravers in the ;
Union, and eqaals of thebest in Europe, will con- j
tinueto furnish their exqnisite productions.' and i
Hawdon, Wright and Hatch, G Parker, A L
Dick, Gimbredge, Jackman, Jones and others, of j
New York, and Dodson, Welch and aters,
Tucker and others, of Philadelphia-all among the
liavo heeo ino-arfifl to furnish a success on of
highly finished steel engravings, superior lo any
that have hitherto appeared in periodicals. Among
the pictures that will be engraved for for the vol- j
umes in 1843, are several Origin l Paintings, i
by Ingham, Inman, Cols, Thompson, Freeman, j
Franquinet, and other distinguished artists. The
Amarican periodicals have hitherto contained,
save in a very few instances, only engravings coj)
ied from foreign prints. Tlie pnbl i she r of Gra
ham's Magazine will be the first to reform the
practice, and to make his work strictly original
in its embellishments as well as in its literary con
tents. Oan PuitTRAjT GAi.LF.RV.-One of the new fea
tures of the coining volumes K-ill be the introduc
tion of Portraits of the contributors to Graham's
Magazine, which of course, will include nearly
all the eminent writers of the day. The 3")th vol
omewill include, from the burins of Parker, John
son and others, portraits engraved in the highest
style of the art of Mr Cooper, Professor Longfel
low, 'Maria DelOccidente,' Mrs Sigou ne. Miss
Sedgwick, Mrs Seba Smith, Mrs Embury and sev
eral others-all from paintings executed expressly
for the purpose.
The Editorial Department will continue
to embrace notes on current literature etc, and re
views of all new American and foreign works of
general interest or valne. The criticisms of Gra
ham'4s Magazine are acknowledged in all parts o
tlie country to be superior in acumen, honesty and
independence to those of any contemporary. In
deed, while a majority of the monthly and quar
terly journals have become mere advertising medi
ums for for the booksellers, in which every tning
'in print' is indiscriminately praised, this period
ical is looked upon as a just and discriminating ar
biter between authors md readers, in which both
have implicit confidence.
Terms.
Graham's Magazine will be published on the
first of each month in every quarter of t e Union.
The most distant subscribers will therefore receive
it on that day, as well a those who reside in Phil
adelphia. The proprietor being more desirous of
presenting the best and most beautiful than the
cheapest work in the coantry, and anxions to bring
it within the reach of all, offers the following as
the lowest terms at which it can be afforded
Three Dollars per annum in advance for a sin
gle copy, or two copies yearly for five dollars, five
copies for ten dollars, eight for fifteen dollars, or
eleven for twenty dollars, fclabs furnished as usu
