IJNRIVALLED ATTRACTIONS!! ) EMERSON'S MAGAZINE AND PUTNAM'S MONTHLY, ' TWO GREAT MAGAZINES IX OXE. 90,000 COPIES . THE FIRST MONTH ! ! ! ! MAGNIFICENT r ROUTE AM ME FOR 1858 $20,000 IX SPLENDID WORKS OF ART. FIVE-DOLLAR ENGRAVING TOEVERY SCBSPIBER. The Great Library Offer. Agents Getting Rich ! The union of EMERSON'S MAGAZINE and PUTNAM'S MONTHLY has given to the consoli dated work a circulation" second to but one similar publication in the country, and has secured for it a combination of literary and artistic talent prob ably unrivalled by any other magazine in the world. During the first month, the sale in the trade and demand from subscribers exceeded 90,000 co pies, and the numbers already issued of the con solidated work are universally conceded to have surpassed, in the richnessof their literary contents, and the beauty and profuscness of their pictorial illustrations, any magazine ever before issued from the American press. Encouraged by theseeviden ccs of favor, the publishers have determined to commence the new volume in January with still additional attractions, and to offer such induce ments to subscribers as cannot fail to place it, in circulation, at the head of American magazines. With this view they now announce the following splendid programme. They have purchased that superb and costly steel-plate engraving, "THE LAST SUITER," and will present a copy of it to every three-dollar subscriber for the year 158. It was engraved at a cost of over 56,000, by the late celebrated A. L. Dick, from the original of Raphael Morghen. after Leonardo Da Vinci, and is the largest steel-plate engraving ever executed in this country, being three times the size of theordinary 3 engravings. The first impressions of this engraving are held at 510, and it was the intention of the 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 the Magazine one year cheap at S3 and this splendid engraving, richly worth 55 ; thus get ting for S3 the value of Eight dollars. We shall commence striking off the engravings immediately, yet it can hardly be expected that impressions of so large a plate can be taken as fast as they will be called for by subscribers. We shall, therefore, furnish them in the order in which sub scriptions are received Those who desire to ob tain their engravings early, and from the first im pressions, should send in their subscriptions with out delay The engraving can be sent on rollers, by mail, or in any other manner, as subscribers shall order. $30,000 IN WORKS OF ART. In addition to the superb engraving of ,;THE LAST SUPPER," which will be presented so eve ry three-dollar subscriber for 1H08. the publishers have completed arrangemente for the distribution, on the 25th day of December, 1858, of a series of splendid works of art. consisting of one hundred rich and rare Old Paintings, valued at from 5100 to 51,000 each. Also, 2,000 magnificentStcel-pIate Engravings, worth from S3 to 55 each, and 1,000 choice Holiday Books, worth from SI to 55 each, making, in all, over THREE THOUSAND GIFTS, w. rth TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. Indole 53 to the publishers and you will com mence receiving the Magazine by return mail. You will also receive with the first copy a num bered subscription receipt entitling you to the En graving of "THE LAST SUPPER," and a chance to draw one of these uThree Thousand Prizes." RRASONS WHY YOU SHOl'LO SRBSCR1BE FOR EMERSON'S MAGAZINE FOR 1858. First : Because its literary contents will, during the year, embrace contributions from over om hundred different writers and thinkers, num bering among them the most distinguished of A lnerioan authors. Second : Because itseditorialdcpartments, '-Our Studio," "OurWindow," and '-Our Olio," will each be conducted by an able cdisor and it will sur pass, in the variety and richness of its editorial contents, any other magazine. Third: Because it will contain,during the year, nearly six thousand original pictorial illustrations from designs by the first American artists. Fourth : Because for the sum of S3 you will re ceive this splendid monthly, more richly worth that sum than any other magazine, and the superb engraving of '-The Last Supper," worth 55. Fifth: Becauso you will very likely draw ono of the three thousand prizes to be distributed on the 25th day of December, 1858 perhaps one that is worth One Thousand Dollars. Notwithstanding that these extraordinary in ducements can hardly fail to accomplish the ob jects of the publishers without further efforts, yet they have determined to continue through the year THE GREAT LIBRARY OFFER. To.any person who will get up a club of twenty four subscribers, cither at one or more post-offices, we will present a splendid Library, consisting of over Forty Large Bound Volumes, embracing the most popular works in the market The elub may be formed at the club price, 52 a year, without the engraving, or at the full price, 53, with the engra ving of The Last Supper to each subscriber. List and description of the Library, and specimen copy of the magazine, will be forwarded on receipt of 25 cents. Over 200 Libraries, or 8,000 volumes, have already been distributed in accordance with this offer, and we should be glad of an opportuni ty to furnish a Library to every clergyman, to ev ery school teacher, or to some one at every post office in the country.
