The January number, to be ready on the filth ol December, will be in erjtirely new type, and with a new and more beautilul t,tyle of paper. ORIGINAL STORIES ILLUSTRATED. A great lieature of this Magazine Ibr 1848 will be the publication ol original stories, illustrated by orig inal engiavingjs, an enterprize bo costly as liereto- tore to have been ventured on only t»y this periodi cal. Mrs. Stephens, the greatest of living female authors, has already written a thrilling tale to be thus illustrated; and others will also be given. A PRIZE NUMBER FOR JANUARY. We thought, last year, that we had published a January number such an never could be surpassed ; but for January, 1848, we shall issue one far excelling it, and infifiitely supenor to any ever seen in A meri- ca. We have the plates for that number, each of which it worth the subscription price. Send and see THE VERY LALEST FASHIONS. We have arrangements by which we can excel all colemporaries m the hateness and beauty of our fashions. For 1848 we shall give, each month, a full description of the fashione, piepared by a cele brated dressmaker, and written in a style to be un- deratootl by eveiy lady, as well as by the prolession- al milliner. SPLENDID NOVELTIES. We shall introduce in 1848, several nov'elties, among them descriptions of all the popular dance*, accompanied by engravings; also a department which shall keep the run of all new fashions in fur- n/iure, &c.; also new receipts; also fresh styles of embroidery, netting, &c. In short, we shall make ihe Magazine useful to the family, as well as orna mental to the parlor. THE BEST FOR THE SEX. This periodical hae a well earned reputation of being the best lor the sex. In fact, after all, on its literary merir. must n Magazine stand or lall. Ours is edited by Mrs. Aim S. Stephens, confessedly the best living romance writer, at home or abroad.
