At the close of his second volume, the magazine having been commenced on the first of January, 1844, the publisher finds himself irresistably call ed on to express the satisfaction and gratitude with which he has been filled by the brilliant and unexampled success that has attended his endea vors to win the public favor. Notwithstanding the difficulties, disappointments and vexations that almost invariably follow the establishment of a new periodical, in the production of which there must be the harmonious co-operation of many heads and many hands notwithstanding occasion al short-comings, especially in the pictorial de partment, which no care or diligence could avert and no expenditure prevent, the Columbian Mag azine has gone on steadily increasing in support and popularity fiom the opening number, and if the unbought unsolicited testimony of the press mav be received as unswayed by partiality and unbiassed by friendship, the efforts of contributors and editors have been satisfactory to the public and accepted as fulfilling the promises made for them at the commencement of the enterprise. The publisher undertook the work with a firm conviction that the great city of New York was the best and the true home for a magazine of gen eral literature; that notwithstanding the failure of many previous attempts to establish such a work, there could be no impossibility of success with sufficient capital, perseverance and the right sys tem of management both by publisher and editor; stimulated by this conviction he embarked in the enterprize and the result of the first year has proved that his judgment was correct. It has long ceased to be necessary, or reasona ble, that we should speak of the Columbian as an experiment. At all events, it is now an experi ment substantially tried. We feel ourse'ves upon as firm a basis as any similar journal in the world. Our principal cares now regard not so much the securing what ground we have gained (foi we con sider this sufficiently secure) as the extension of our sphere of action and utility not so much, even, the mere enlargement of our subscription-list, as the most suitable modes of catering for the amuse ment (and shall we say occasionally for the prof it 1) of our subscribers in the present and in the future the many whom we have, and the many more we shall undoubtedly have as time rolls on. We have made arrangements which will enable us to present our friends with embellishments of very superior taste, style and finish. In this re spect it is our firm purpose, if possible, to outvie ail competition. Our music and engravings, we confidently believe, will not be equalled very cer tainly they shall not be surpassed in real merit, by those of any other magazine. We propose to give, each month, two or more superb engravings, independently of two pages of music by the most . eminent composers, and plate of authentic fashions. Regarding the literary and editorial conduct of the Columbian, the publisher does not feel called upon to say more than a very few words. The general management of this department is confided to the gentleman who has hitherto, given abundant evidence, not only of the highest ability to put forth a meritorious magazine and one exactly adapted to the tastes of all readers, with whom is associated another gentleman of ability and expe rience. The publisher, therefore, has every con fidence that what has already been done for the literary value of this journal, will be done again. We are perfectly willing that our future in this re spect should be estimated by our past. The sub joined list of those who have furnished articles for the Columbian during the by gone year, will sat isfy, we feel assured, the most fastidious, that we are resolute to spare, in no particular, either ex ertion or expense.

With the aid of these contributors (of whom it is needless to say one word in the way of commeu dation) and of numerous others, perhaps equally meritorious if less celebrated, who have promised us their support, we flatter ourselves that, as a lit erary work, the Columbian need be under no ap prehension of being excelled. But what we have done is already before the public, who will rot fail to judge of us with im partiality ; and in respect to what we intend to do, it will be both wiser and more becoming (although less fashionable not to boast.) We may be per mitted to assure our friends in brief, however, that vie have matured numerous plans (for the Third Volume) with which we feel confident they will be pleased. It is our purpose to put forth every energy, and it will be no fault of our own if the Columbian shall not be found at least equal to any magazine, of any class or price, in America. Dealers in periodicals throughout the United States and the Canadas, who wish to become agents for the Columbian Magazine," will please apply to the publisher immediately. The usual discount will be made to them. Editors who will insert this Prospectus en tire and send a copy marked and addressed to the Columbian Magazine, shall have a copy sent to them for one year.

Bad breath, paleness about the lips, flush ed cheeks, picking at the nose, wasting away, leanness, pain in the bowels, joints or limbs, dis turbed sleep, frightful dreams, moaning and some times a voracious appetite, are among the symp toms of worms.

Jonathan Haworth, Esq. the well known Tem perance Lecturer, was attacked with a cold from sleeping in damp sheets, in the winter of 1811. He neglected it at first, but soon found it assuming a somewhat alarming aspect, and then resorted ta the various remedies usually recommended forluni complaints. When one thing failed he tried an other, until he had exhausted his patience and tje whole catalogue of remedies. His cough was al most incessant, so that he could get little or ca sleep attended with pain in his side, spitting cf blood, night sweats, and all the usual symptoms of Consumption. While at Rome, (N Y) he felt that his end was nigh that in that place he must soon end his journey of life. Providentially, a lady who visited him advised a trial of Dr Shermans Cough Lozenges. He accordingly sent and got a box, and the first dose gave him more relief than all the other medicines he used before. By the time he had taken one smalt box, he was able to start for the city of New York, and in three weeks' time he was perfectly restored to his usual health. He often announces the fact to his hearers,. whea lecturing on Temperance, and says he owas-hs life to Dr Sherman's Lozenges From tho Cincinnati Daily Times, of Jan. 4th ISM.'
