far TO cur readers without at all Interfering with
the usual variety of tho work, by adding teetre
pages per month TO tho usual number. When il

"A NEW SEA STORY.
We shall commence, in the July number Of the
Maga zinc, Il New Sea Story, entitled "Ihe SIa-
Uer" which, for power Of desc rplion and truthful
incident. we regard of the most brilliant

ber5, and wIIi be widely sought after and read.
In addition TO the above, we have on hand
several long stories, written by writers of ability,
which must assist materially to render the next
volume attractive and popular.


: IN THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGRAVlNGS,
we feel sure that VIC already excel any other
Magazine. But in order to sitoin a still higher
reputation and merit in this respect, we have en-
tered into arrangements with Mr.. Sartuin, the
best meZZolIut engraver in the country, Mr..
Tucker, well known to our readers. and the en-
graver Of some of tho finest and most effective
plates we have ever presented to readers;
! Mr. Welsh, Mr.. Walter, Rawdon, Wright &
! Hatch. Mr.. SnIe, MIR. Ellis. all known to the
country as most accomplished artists, to furnish
a series Of subjects of great beauty and variety
and we hazard nothing in saying thai for the
next twelve months Grahom's Magazine will be
without a rival.


Mr.. Sarluin has already finished fos our july
number glorious picture of the hero o! the pres
cnt war, which will DO widely sought after on
