ed magazine popularity. The basis of every Re-
public rests upon the great and broad principles of
universal intelligence disseminated among the body
politic. Trusiing to the patronage of an intelligent
dublic, extensive arrangements have been made with,
the leading American publishing houses, to supply
the best products of the press, written by the most
eminent writers. Books supplied to order,in large
or small quantities. New publications and books
on hand as soon as issued. Magazines, &c., paid
for by the number, on delivery.
