spreading knowledgebefore the public—and
this is don too, too, in so cheap a manner that
the blessin becomes at once wide-spretl.
The Boston publishers deserve the thaniut
of all friends of general' education for the

they may be amply rewarded by the faeur
of the community.

in arbranctil asking attention to it.

From die plan of this work, acid, also,
judging from the first number, we are led to
believe it Will be a very valuable publica

and historical sketches, which will be 1:m

throw the cufiuence of chaste literature over
the feelings and the hearts of its readers,

dODII7 I O LADY 13002.
For 1849.
Urditated to the Ladies of the United States.
.EDITED SARAN J. HALE, GRACE
GREENWOOD, and by L. A. COPE?.
A Novelette by Miss E. LEMIE,
who contritiutes to every No.
N. P. WILLIS' Original Scriptur
a 1 Poet ry-
T. S. ARTHUR, who contributes to
every No., illustrative of Croomels
Sketches of American Character.
We intend merelyto give a notice of
our intentions for next year, leaving to
others long advertisements—"full of
sound and fury, signifying nothing."
Agreeably to the practice of last year
the publisher will issue as good a num
ber each month as he does in January.
This is a novel feature in Magazine
publishing. During the whole of last
year he gave more engravings and more
reading matter than any of his conterit•
poraries, and will continue to do so
next year. Those who subscribe to
dODEY'S LADY BOOK, may do
so under the assurance that they will
receive more for their money in the
Magazine alor.e, than by subscribing to
any other work. To this ie-added and
included in the same $3, the LADY'S
DOLLAR NEWSPAPER; which
contains in one month nearly, if not quite
as much reading matter as other month•
lies, making for $3, the amount of read
ing of, two inagazines a month. THERE
ARE PECULIARITIES about Godey's
Lady Book for the ladies that no other
IVFagazine possesses. There is a Mez
zotint and Line Engraving in each
number—both by the• best artists.—ln
addition to these, there are given month
ly what no other magazine gives—a
Coloured Fashion Plate, with a full
description. This feature is peculiar to
Godey, as no other work has them ev
ery month and colored. Then there
are Caps, Bonnets, Chemisettes, Eques
trianism for Ladies, with engravings.
The Ladies Work Table, with designs
for knitting, netting, crotchet, and all
other kinds of work. Patterns for Smo
king Caps, Chair Covers, Window
Curtains, D'Oyley's, Purses. Bags ; -&c.
&c. Health mid Beauty, with engrav
ings. Model Cottages, with ground
plans. and other engravings. always il
lustrative of something useful. Music,
beautifully printed on tinted paper.
which may be taken out and bound
Colored Modern Cottages, and Colored
Flower Pieces occasionally. These
are all extra in Godey, and to be found
in no other magazine. These were all
given last year. and will he - continued.
In addition we shall have in every No.
one of
"Cronies Sketches of American Characteris
tics,"
A most amusing series, now first given
to the American public. These will
be"illustrated in every No. by a Story
from the powerful pen of T. S- Arthur,
'Esq.
"The Changes of Fashion,"
Illustrated by Fay Robinson, Esq.
This series will be very interesting to
the ladies.
'The applicability of thr Fine Ms to Do-
meslie Pans,"
Is another series of engravings now in
preparation, and will be published du--
ring the year.
Cottage Fiarniture.
Having given so many Model Cottages,
we intend now to commence the publi
cation of Cottage Furniture—a very
necessary appendage to' a Cottage.
Religion nnnislory-
Our superior Artists, Walters, Tueker,
Pease and Welch, nre now engaged up
on n set of plates DlustreAivo of these
two subjects.
Our Music,
Prepared expressly for us—mostly ori
ginal, and beautifully printed, has long
commanded a decided preference otter
that of any other magazine. it isa fin-
Lure in the Book.
The Literary Character of Coders Lnd
Book.
With such writers as Miss Leslie, Grace
Greenwood, W. G. Simms, Mr. Ellet,
T. S. - Arthur, Mrs. E. Oakes Smith,
Mrs. J- C. Neal, H. T. Tuckermen, H.
W. Herbert, &c., the Author of the
Widow Bedott, Frofessor Frost, Bry
ant, Longfellow, Holmes, and a host
of others, must always take the lead in
literary merit.
