TICE NEW-YORKER--
QUARTO EDITION.
THE Publishers of Tux NEW-YORKER. en
couraged by the generous and steadily increas.
ing patronage which has hitherto rewarded their
exertions, propose to issue,from the commence
ment of their Third Volume on the 26th of
March ensuing, a new Double Quarto Edition
of their journal, not instead of but in addition
to that now published. Advertisements.except
possibly a few of a strictly literary character.
will be entirely excluded; and, in addition to all
the matter presented in the folio New-Yorker,
the Quarto will contain a page of popular Mu
sic, &c. &c• and be accompanied by a handsome
Title Page and comprehensive Index. at the
close of the Volume.
The general features of the New-Yorker will
remain essentially as they have heretofore been.
Its columns will contain
-1 Grassitite. LITIIIATURE —Original Tales, Es
says, Reviews, Poems, &c. with corresponding
Selections from the Quarterlies, Monthlies, and
all the better class of periodicals, Foreign and
American, with choice extracts from new works
of substantial excellence. The Editor acknowl
edges with pride and gratitude his obligation to
his regular contributors—and among them are
some whose names have shed lustre on the cause
of American literature —for the steadfast sup
port hitherto afforded him, and the confidence
with which he is now enabled to assure the pub
lic that it will not soon be withdrawn. lie
takes pleasure in recalling the fact that, since
the establishment of the New-Yorker, no one
other journal has afforded specimens in equal
extent and variety, of the productions of all em
inent American writers of whatever section or
class—a characteristic which he hopes it may
still preserve; while his selections from the best
foreign works have been exceeded--in quanti
ty at least —by those of but three or four among
the myriad of dis-Atlantic periodicals.
H. NaTtorrat. POLITICS. ---it has been the aim
of the Editor to present a full and fair exhibit of
the aspects, movements and struggles, of parties
in our country, including the meeting of Con
ventions. nomination of candidates for State and
National Offices, and all other significant mani
festations of political feeling, with the genera
results of elections, as fast as ascertained, and
the official canvass in each instance, as soon
as it shall have reached us. This course is be
lieved to be in many respects original with this
journal; and it is considered that we have just
cause of felicitation in the fact that, pursued as
it has been through two years of unremiited po
litical warfare, the fairness and general occurs
el of our statements and returns have very
rarely, if ever, been questioned. The Editor
reserves to himself the right of remarking. as
circumstances may seem to require and justice
to dictate, on the less exciting political topics
of the day, as on all others, with calmness. de
ference and moderation; but he will still thrive
—he trusts not less successfully than hitherto—
' to exclude from the columns of the New Yor
ker every observation, reflection, or even ar
gument, w hich may wantonly do violence to the
sincere convictions of any well-informed rea
der,of whatever principle or party.

rule, however, it will tre the aim of the Editor
to embody such articles, whether original or se
lected, as shall at least combine instruction
with entertainment.
CONDITIONS.
The Quarto New-Yorker will be published
every Saturday afternoon on an extra imper-i
al sheet of the finest quality, comprising six
teen pages of three columns each, and afforded
to its patrons in city and country. at THREE
DOLLARS per annum, payable inflexibly in
advance. Orders from a distance, unaccompa
nied by a remittance. will necessarily remain
unanswered. Any person or persons sending
us $5 positively free of postage or.other charges
will receive two copies for one year, or a single
copy for two years, and in the same proportion
for a larger sum. The few who may desire to
take the folio edition for immediate perusal and
the Quarto for binding will be entitled to re
ceive both for $4 50 in advance. We will
cheerfully preserve their files of the Quarto for
any such who may desire it.
The subscriber; are extremely solicitous that
there be rio misconcertion on the part of their
patrons in regard to the two Editions of their
paper. The Quarto is commenced in defer
ence to the solicitafons of a great number of
their friends, who have expre , sed a strong de
sire that the New-Yorker should appear in a
form more susceptible of preservation than the
present. It is neither anticipated nor hoped
that it will receive a patronage at all commen
sutate with that of the folio edition. They
would frankly express their conviction that, for
those whose interest in a journsl expires with
the week in which it reaches them, the latter
will be decidedly preferable, aside from thedif
ference in price. Accordingly, when an order
for **The New-Yorket"simply, wi , hoot specific
cation, is sent them, the folio will invariably b
sent.
Address
It is our earnest desire that all those who
may incline to patronize the Quarto New-York
er will apprise us of the fact before the regul..r
commencement of the volume (Starch 26.) The
Specimen Number will be forwarded to all in
discriminately who may signify • desire to ex
amine it (without subjecl , .g us to postage;)
and, as an additional inducement to an early
subscription. we hereby offer to send the inrer
vening numbers of the folio New-Yorker gratis
to each subscriber for the Qu.rto, from the re
ceipt of advance payment up to that time.
03 - THE NEW-YORKER (folio) will contin•
ue to be published at Two Dolla , s per anuum
in advance, to which Fifty cents will be added
if not paid within sim months. It oil! not, how
earn be forwarded on credit to new subscribers
of whose rolvency we have no a disf,ctory 89811-
