GRAHAM'S LADY'S AND GENTLE.
MAN'S MAGAZINE:
With more splendid engravings than any
other Magazine in the Union.
Edited by George R. Graham. C. J. Pe
terson, Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, Mrs. Emma
C. Emhury. and Edgar A. Poe.
Miss E. Leslie, Theodore S. Fay, Geo.
P. Morals, Regular and Permanent Con
uibutors.
This work, devoted to both sexes, will o
pen a new volume with the month of Janu
ary, 1842, with an array of Contributors of
talent and fame which no periodical in the
country can boast or pretend to rival. The
Volume will be opened with uew and beau
tiful type, the finest white paper, and with
the first of a NEW SERIES OF EM—
BELLISHMEN'I'S unsurpassed by any
which have yet appeared in any Magazine.
The style of elegance, the beauty and fin
ish of,these illustrations, and the extensive
improvements which will be made in its ty
pographical appearance, and above all the
tone of its literary Department given it by
the brilliant array of its Contributore,whose
articles will enrich the pages of each num
ber. will give it a character above any mag
azine in the Union. The Magazine has be
come the standard of taste in matters of enr
bellishment, and has led the way in every
thing really beautiful published in the wag.
azines of last year. The voice of the pub
lie press, while it places the work at the,
head of American Literature, is unanimous
in the announcement that . no work ever
started in the country has been so elegantly
embellished, or has so rapidly increased.—
For the new volume the most extensive ar
rangements have been made, with the most
distinguished artists in the country, for a
supply of elegant engravings of all sorts.
Our beautiful Mezzotint Engravings.—
lt affords us much pleasure to be able to state
that we have made arrangements with Mr.
Sartain, the accomplished mezzotint engra
ver, whose plates have contributed so much
to the beauty of the Magazinze heretofore,
by which we secure his splendid mezzotints
for this work alone. No other magazine of ;
this kind can have them without permission' ,
from us. 'Ms we take to be a good move,
and although this preference is purchased by
us at a heavy expense,we are confident that
nothing can be got up to equal them in
beauty or to compete with them in popular
ity. The engagement is permanent, and is
confined to magazine work alone. In addi
to those we have secured the burin of ano
ther talented mezzotint engraver, H. S.
Sadd, Esq. of New York, that there may
be no disappointment as to number or regu
larity. These will bo equal to any thing
published, so that we are able to promise a
mezzotint in every number. •These beauti
ful engravings will therefore form a feature
of Graham's Magazine in every number, so
that we shall be able to distance any thing
like competition on this ground. These
plates aro the most' expensive that can be
got up for a magazine of large circulation,
in consequence of the great price of print
ing—being more than double that of line en
gravings—and the necessity of reduplicating
the plates; our edition already rendering it
necessary, that two or three plates of the
same subject be prepared for every number
in which they are used. We now print an
edition greater than that of any cotempora
ry for the last year, and confidently assert
that at the same rate of increase we shall is
sue in 1842, an edition of not less than 35
thousand copies monthly, and shall soon
have an edition unequalled in the history of
magazines.
Our splendid Steel Engravings.-:—We
have also entered into a distinct and perma
nent arrangement with Rawdon, Wright,
Hatch and Smilie, and with A. L Dick,
Esq. of New York. for a series of splendid
engravings, to be got up iu a style unsurpas
sed by any that have ever been done in this
country. The wide spread fame of these
artists is a sufficient guarantee of the charac
ter of the work we shall receive from their
hands. So that with such an organization,
we may safely defy competition in the way
of embellishments, show the world a pattern
for others to follow, in the way of liberal
and judicious expenditure, and fix a new e
ra in the history of magazine publishing in
this country. It is a libel upon American
artists to presume that the worn out plates
of old English Annuals are to compete with
or be preferred to the beautiful creations of
their genius, taste and skill.
Elegant Embossed Work.—An agree
ment has also been made with that merito
rious and accomplished artist, F. Quarre,
Esq. for a full supply of tasteful Embroide
ry, Lace-work, Birds, Flowers, and Land
scapes, coloreed in the most finished and
elegant style. This will form an expensive,
but popular and attractive feature in the
work, and with the variety which will thus
be introduced, will always be novel and
pleasing.
Richly colored Fashions.—ln compliance
with the almost unanimous wishes of our la
dy subscribers, we shall furnish them with
a beautiful and correct plate of fashions,and
shall also give the style for gentlemen,
which has been decidedly popular with both
sexes, and has rendered the work the text
book of fashion, the Union over. These
fashions will be drawn from original de
signs:from Paris and London, and may al•
ways be depended upon as the prevailing
style in Philadelphia and New York, for the
month in which they are issued. These,
however, shall in no wise interfere with the
regular and choice engravings, and music
which accompany each number of the mag
azine. as we shall not suffer ourselves to be
surpassed in number or beauty of illustra
tions by any oher work, but shall maintain
the position which we have assumed, of
leading all others in the richness, beauty,
excellence and variety, of Magazine embel
!Monate.

The Literary Character.—The reputa
tion of the Magazine thus far. would be a
sufficient guarantee for the future, but that
it may be seen that nothing has been left
undone to maintain every department of the
work, and to elevate the literary, as well as
the pictorial department, we - beg leave to
announce a host of talented and elegant A
merican writers.
The List of Contributors.—la addition
to the old contributors, whose names and
articles have given a high celebrity to the
Magazine. a number of new ones it will be
perceived are added, of worth and note, so
that we maytfairly say that we have the
strength of .Imerican Literature enlisted in
the work. Theodore S.' Fay, author of

In addition to this brilliant array of names
known to fame. the distinguished services
of a host of anonymous writers of no ordi
nary abilities will give worth and character
to the pages of the Magazine. The series
of the well known nautical papers entitled
Cruising in the Last War. and the Reefer
of '7B, have had a run unequalled by any
series published by any Magazine for years.
The author promises to open a new series
of Toles of the Sea, & from hie known abili-
ties as a depictor of sea scenes and life.
much may be relied upon from him in main
taining the popularity of the magazine.—
Papers may be expected during the volume
also, from the author of the well known ar-
tides entitled the Log book of Old lronsides,
besides a variety of choice articles in prose
and verse from various writers of celebri
ty, as contributors to the prominent maga
zines of the country.
Sterling Criticitms.—The critical de
partment shell still form a distinctive char
acter of the work, and is under the control
of a gentleman of critical acumen & repute
long established, and held every whew se
cond to none for sagacity, and an honest,
fearless independence. The review of books
may, therefore be expected to be candid and
entirely free from the inane puffing which
iaarks the bookseller's hack; but shall be
thoroughly impartial and severe!) het.
Spode and Pastimes.—This interesting
feature of the Magazine shall still be pre
served as important to young sportsmen,
and in fact to all young and old,who delight
in the spurts of the rod and the gun. Ar
ticles in this department. shall be from ac
knowledged pens, and of tho very best au
thority.
Time of Publication —The work will
be published on the first of the month in ev
ery qUarter of the Union. The most dis
tant subscriber will consequently receive it
on that day, as well as those who reside in
Philadelphia. In all the principal cities a
gents have been established, to whom the
Magazine is forwarded, prior to the time of
issuing -it, so that they may be delivered to
resident subscribers on the first of the month
This is an important arrangement to distant
subscribers, who become tired, importunate
and eventually discontinue many works, in
consequence of the great delay by publish
ers.
The Lowest Terms.—The proprietor be
ing more desirous of publishing the hand
somest and best, than the cheapest work in
the Union, while at the same time he is anx
ious to bring it within the reach, of 'all offers
the following as the lowest possible terms.

PROSPECTUS OF
THE PEOPLE'S LIBRARY
O R
MAGAZINE OF CHOICE AND ENTERTAIN
ING LITERATURE.
A distinctive charaeteristic of the present
age is the multiplication and cheapness of
its literature. In every department of let
ters new works are constantly falling from
the press, and notwithstanding the extraor
dinary supply, the demand continues with
unabated activity. This is especially true
of those lighter publications which convey
instruction in agreeable and attractive
forms, and supply a means of recreation at
the same time that they offer facilities for
improvement. Scarcely a day passes in
which some new work of this description is
net given to the public, and though among
the large number thus issued some may be
unworthy or useless, generally they aro de•
serving of commendation.
As most of the publications referred to
are printed in solid volumes, they are inac
cessible to the mass of those readers who
are remote from large cities. The cost and
the difficulty of transporting books to places
which do not lie an the great thoroughfares
of the country, am such as to prevent their
extensive circulation in the interior, and to
make their prices so high, U 9 to impose a
serious tax on all who purchase them. To
obviate in some degree this difficulty, and
to place within the reach of all, the choicest
portions of the entertaining literature of the
day, the Subscriber intends to publish, in a
form suitable for transportation by the mails,
beginning on the first day of October iast.,
a monthly periodical, to be called
The People's Library,
OR MAGAZINE OF CHOICE AND EN-
TEATAINING TITERATURE.
Tux PEOPLE'S LIBRARY will consist prin
cipally of reprints of the best productions of
the. Britivh press. The Novels of
Bawer, Dickens, James, D'lnaeli, Marryat,
Lever, the author of "O'Malley and Lorro
quer," Lover, the author of 'Rory (More;
Warren, author ot r "Ton Thousand A-
Year,' Miss Pickering, Agnes Strick
land, Mrs. Gore, Miss Austin, La- '
dy Blessington, Mrs. S. C. Hall.
And all other modern writers of distinction
will be embraced in the collection, as soon
as possible after their publication abroad;
and in occasional instances prior to any
publication which can be made by the book
sellers here. In addition to the Novels, the
library will contain such amusing Memoirs,
Diverting Travels, and other fresh and ra
cy works as may from time to time be thol
worthy of being transferred to its pages.
It is a subject of familiar remark, that
along with the wide spreading taste for lit
erature, there ib springing up in all parts of
this country, a taste for the finer work. of
pencil and the graver, which denotes a ra
pidly progressive civilization. To minister
to this taste, and to render "The People's
Library" of the highest value, and worthy
of the most extensive patronage, the pro
prietor mtends to furnish along with each
number
An exquisitely engraved Steel Plate,
Prom the burins of the most distinguished
artists. These plates will be accompanied
with letter press illustrations from the pens
of Miss Leslie, Seba Smith, Mrs. E. C. Em
bury, Miss H. F. Gould, Mrs. L. H. Si
gourbey, &0., &n., &c., and other eminent
American writers. This feature in his
proposed publication is of an importance
which the proprietor believes cannot be:over
estimated.. The series will embrage many
original pictures, and each subscriber will
thus receive, in addition to the regular mat
ter of the Library, a number of elegant and
costly Engravings, which will make a val
uable addition to the ornaments of the draw
ing room and the centre table.
Accompanying each number of the Li.
brary tour pages of extra matter will be
furnished in the form of a cover. This
will comprise notices of new publications, a
monthly compend of literature, contempo
rary events, 4-c. 4.c. The critical depart
ment will be supplied with judicious and
impartial articles, the aim of which will
be to elevate the character of 011 r literature.
' , The People's Library" will be printed in
large octavo form, on paper of the finest
quality, from clear, distinct and elegant
type. Each number Will contain over 80
pages. making at the end of the year
11000 pages! The whole of this,
with the engravings, additional matter, lit
erary news, &c., &c., will be furnished at
the singularly low price of 83 PER AN
NUM, payable in advance. This price
even in this age of cheap literature, is un
rivalled for cheapness. Nor can it be
objected that its cheapness will lessen its
merit; as the proprietor pledges himself
that in every department of the work, Liter
ary, Typographical and Pectoral. it shall
be at least equal to the beat periolicals of
the day.

HORSEPOWER

MACHINES.
TILE Subscriber takes pleasure in an
flouncing th it he is now prepared to furnish
the Farmers of Adams and Franklin Coun-
ties with the best HORSE POWER AND
THRASHING hIACIIINES ever put in
operation th either of the above counties.—
The advantages of the Horse-Power are
obvious from the fact, that a much greater
velocity of the cyhoder of the Machine is
acquired by a slower walk of the horses
than in any other Machine now in use, and
having greater leverage and less friction
requires lighter draught. The superion.l
ty of the Thrashing Machine consists in
that of Thrashing more grain in any given
time with four men to attend it, than the
Machines now in use do with seven men to
attend them.
•
The above powers and Nfachinee, are
permanently constructed, and will wear
much longer than any heretofore offered to
the public. The Shops in which they are
manufactured are Mount Maria Furoance,
near Milleratown, Adams county, and at
Indian Springs, near Waynesboro', Frank

sold any medicine that has sold so rapidly or beers

others has given great reliefafter every other reme

any I have yet heard of. This was a poor woman
that has been afflicted with CONSUMPTION for
several years, and had tried every thing to vain.—

much. This circumstance was soon made known to
a religious society she belonged to, and they imme
diately presented her with half a dozen bottles,
which she has also used a part of, and is recovering
very fast. She told me a few days since that she
had not felt so well (or the last year. and believed
your medicine was the only thing that saved her
life, &e. The same society have purchased over
thirty bottles for different persons, and will no doubt
purchase many more as they praise is very
