More's Fables for the Ladies editor of this publication hopes, from the established re- X pucation of the several tra&s of which it is composed, that it will be found a more complete system for the inftru£lion of the female world, than perhaps any other extant. A volume, under the present title, was lately published in Eng land and Ireland, and had a molt rapid'fale, having been puichafed by almost every lady of taste in those kingdoms. To this volume the editor has added Miss More's £ flays—Mrs. Chapone's letters on the government of the temper —and Swift's letter to a young lady newly married. These have confideiably enhanced its value, and he doubts not, the ladies on this fide of the Atlantic will be as generous in their encouragement of a work intended for their ad vantage as those in England and Ireland have been. %* SETS OF THE AMERICAN MUSEUM.

It is a delightful, healthy Situation, capable of genteel and tally improve ments; and as Perth-Amboy is one of the best sea-ports in the States, and within 18 miles of the fca, the prolpeft ot its increasing in value from that circumstance, is by no means incon fidcrable.
