 7NHIS well known weekly publication, which was Il established in 1881, by its present editor com menced its Thirteenth volume on the 4th March, 1s43. It is sheet of the very largest class, con taining twelve imperial quarto pages, printed on h nen paper, of the finest texture and on good type. It is embellished with the largest and most highly finished engravings steel, ever issued by peri odcal in the United States. The last three volumes contained superb Portraits of the distinguished Ame rcan and imported Horses, designed to constitute an American Sporting Gallery accompanied with com plete Memoirs, giving the Pedigree, Characteristics and Performances, with incidental notices of their contemporaries, Sc. The engravngs correspond in size (eigheen inches by thrteen) with those annu- ally published in London of the winners of Derby, Oaks and St. Leger and have been executed in line, on Steel Plate, expressly for this paper from origi nal pictures, in oil, by the most eminent artists. In the course of the present volume of 1S43, will also be given Portrait of Fashion, the Northern champion and such other magnificent embellish- ments as will hereafter be determined upon.

 The ssSpirit of the Times'' is so well known throughout the country as the acknowledged "Chro- ncle of the Turf, Field Sports'' &c, that it is not deemed necessary to go into any detail of its peculiar characteristics.
