SPLENDID EMBELLISHMENTS


In the department ofEngravings it is well known
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed any
periodical work ever published in tfiis or any 9th
er country. The highest ambition of rival pub
fishers seems thus far to have been to mai,tain a
respectable imitation OF the numerous costly and
beautiful works Of art with which the successive
numbers of this journal have been graced. In the
cocrse~of the succeeding volumes many importan,
new fealureswill be introduced. Sartin and Sadd
the most celebrated Mezzotint Engravers in the
Union, and equals of the bsst in Europe, will CON
/ tinue TO furnish their exqnisite productions: and
/ Rawdon, Wright and Hatch. G Parker, A L
i Dick, Gimbredge, JaCkma0, J ones and others, o
! New York, and Dodson, Wech and W aters.
Tucker and others, of fPhiladep pha-all among the
most eminent line eDgFavers of the present centu-
ry, have been engaged TO furnish a succession OF
highly finished steel eng7avings, superior 10 any
/ thathaye hitherto appeared in periodicals. Among
the pictures that will be engraved for for the vol
ures in Si3, are several ORIGINAL PAINTINGs,
/ by Ingham, Inmdn, Cole, Thompson, Freeman,


Franqunet and other distinguished artists. The
American periodicals. have hitherto contained
save in very few instances. only engravings 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 we'll as in its literary con-
tents.
