Encouraged by these eviaen ccs of favor, the publishers have determined to commence the new volume in January with still additional attractions, and to oner such induce ments to subscribers-as cannot ail to place it, in circulation, at the head 01 American magazines.

L Dick, from the original of Raphael Morghen, after Leonard) Da Vinci, and is the largest steel-plate engraving ever executed in this country, being three times the sizeot theordiuary engravings. The first impressions of this engraving are held at 10, and it was the intention ot tho artist that none of the engravings should ever be offered for a less sum than 5, being richly worth that amount. Thus every three-dollar subscriber will receive tho Mrrazine one year cheap at S3 and this splendid engraving, richly worth 55 ; thus jret- tms tor S-i the value of l-.iirtit dollars.
