SPhENDtD EMBELLISHMENTS.


In the department ofEngravings it is well known
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed any
periodical work ever published in this or any 9th
er country. The highest ambition of rival pub
fishers seems thus far 10 have been to maintain a
respectable imitation Of the numerous costly and
beautiful works of art with which the successive
numbers of this Journal have been graeed. In the
course of the succeeding volumes many important
new features will be introduced Sartn ard Sadd
the most celebrated Mezzotint Engravers in the
Union, and equals of thebest in Europe, will con
tihue TO furnish their exqnisite productions: and
Rawrloh, Wright and Hatch, G Parker, A L
Dick, Gimbredge, JaCknan, J ones and others, o
New York, and Dodson, Welch and Waters,
Tucker and others, ofPhadelphia- among the
most eminent line engravers of the present centu-
ry, haveoe engaged to furnish succession of
highly finished steel engravihgs, superior to any
thathave hitherto appeared in periodicals. Among
the pictures that will be engraved for for the vol
umes in l843, are several ORIGINAL PAINTINGS,
by Ingham, Inman, Cole, Thompson Freeman,
Franquinet, and other distinguished artists. The
American periodicals. have hitherto contained,
save in very few Instances, only engravngs cop
| led from foreign prints. The publisher of Gra-
HAMS Magazine will be the FIRST to reform the
practice, and to make his work Strictly original
in its embellishments as well as III It's literary con-
tents.

lures of the coming volumes aCil be the introduc-
ton of Portraits ofthe Contributors to Graham's

eral others-al from paintings executed expressly
| for the purpose.


The EDIToRIAE DEPARTMENr will continue
to embrace notes on current literature etc, and re-
views of all new American and foreign works Of
general interest," or value. The criticisms of Gfa-
hani's Magazine are acknowledged mall partsof
the country to be superior in acumen, honesty and
independence TO those of any contemporary. In
deed, while majority of the monthly and quar-
terly journals have become mere advertising medi-
for for the boob sellers, in which every thing
'in print is Unfortunately praised this period
ical is look ed upon AUS, and Discriminating
biter between authors and readers, il which both.
have implicit confidence.
