To elucidate the advantages of "The Select rnlRtino- Library" such as we propose, it is ; v o - .1 i.nfl.oarv to comnare it to some other publications.

From the latter, such literarv intelligence will occa- -. sionally be culled, as will prove interesting and entertaining to the lover of knowledge, and science, literature,' and novelty. Good stan dard novels, and other works, now out of pqnt, may also occasionally be re-produced -in our columns. to' their 'domestic circle, as the gentleman who Iras undertaken the editorial duties, to literary taites and habits, adds a due sense of the res ponsibility he assumes in catering for an ex teiied and moral community, and of the con sequence detrimental or otherwise, that will fallow the dissemination of noxious or whole- ; some mental aliment.

Our columns have been, and will continue to be, principally filled with original matter. Besides the writings: of the Editors, we are honored with" occasional contributions from a list of nearly two hundred native authors, which fembraces many of the most distinguished and higly gifted literary men of the land. ;( In addition to our foreign correspondence, important sources are open to us for selections, The flattering and general testimonials of wri- er.s, and contemporary journals on Dotn sides of the Atlantic, warrant us in the assertion that there is no work which gives such valuable equivalents for the amount of subscriptions, or which possesses more strong and undeniable claims to the efficient support of the.

The" embellishments for the tenth volume will be of the most costly and beautiful -dtind, consisting of full sized super-royal quarto plates, executed expressly for the work, by the best artists. Besides the Vignette, there will be four superb engravings issued during the year, which if published separately, would alone equal the amount of subscription for the Mir ror. As a guarrantee for the excellence of this department, it has been placed under the direction of Mr. R. W. Weir. In addition to the above, there will be pub lished a number of finely executed Engravings- on wood, also drawn and engraved for the work, and illustrative of curious and interes ting subjects. Each number of the ensuing volume will con tain a popular piece ot Music, arranged with accompaniments for the pianaforte, harp, guitar, &lc. At the expiration of the year, these form a valuable collection of the most choice and rare pieces, which altho' occupying little more than one sixteenth part of the work, could not be purchased in any other way, except at a cost tar greater than that ot tne entire journal In short, the Mirror will contain everything which can enhance the value of the .paper, and rerider it agreeable, instructive and interesting.
