THE CONSTELLATION,
t.._
A paper devoted to ligh Literature, Entertain
ing Miscellany, and the . "rit of the Times.
ruausnEn WEEKLY, IN TIIE ITT OF NEW YORK.
AT THREE DOLLARS PER ANNUM
T HIS Publication has now been establish.
ed more than a year, and the l objeets
proposed and the course pursued are too
well known te. -require a- word from us on
that subject. Our only design at present is
lii - solrcit That increase of patronage which
we trust our work deserves, and which we
shall continue our endeavors to merit.
Testimonials in favor of the CONSTELLA
TION are daily returning upon us, in the shape
of numberless requests for exchange from
our brothers of the press, in flattering notices
of its quality, and copious extracts from its
pages. But with all these demonstrations
of regard which delight the ear and please
the eye, some more tangible proof of admi
ration—a proof which especially-commends
itself to the sense of feeling, in the shape of
silver dollars or bank bills, accompanying
the command—"SEND ME YOUR PAPER !".--
would be most acceptable.
In saying thisove would not be understood
to complaining of a want of patronage. On •
the contrary, we are bound to say it is very
flattering, and is steadily on the increase.
But, like a man who impatiently watches the
growth of a young and thrifty elm, Which is'.
as afford him shelter and comfort, we
it to increase faster.
The form of the CONSTELLATION WU/
changed at the commencement of the pre
sent volume, from the folio to the quaff°,
which renders it convenient for preservation
and binding. It is also printed on a larger
sheet than during the. first year. With
these improvements and the engagement of
an additional Editor of acknowledged talent,
we cannot help thinking , our - paperat the
low price of three dollars, as well worthy or
patronage as any other now before the "pub-
