PROMPTED b y a desire to disseminate cheap information, and place his pa per within, reach of every person, even of the most moderate means, the publisher of the Harrisburg Chronicle proposes, if sus• tained by the public, to commence the next volumn of the paper, opening in February, upon a new systeui, and upon such terms as 'will enable every citizens of the corn mowealth to become acquainted' withmat. tete and' &wigs at the seat of government. We - propose upon the commencement of the next volume to reduce the yearly sub scription of the paper (which is now three dollars a year) ONE THlRD,—that is 'to publish it twice a week during the see skin of the Legislature and once a week during thereniainder of the year, for TWO DOLLARS per annum, being a reduction .of one dollar upon our former terms.— Subscriptions to be paid invariable IN ADVANCE. The session of the Levi lature is generally five months in length, during which time our subscribers will re calve two numbers each week, making nearly one hundred numbers each year, for the same price that is now charged .for weekly country papers! These terms are very low, as every person will observe, .but, if our propositiun is accepted, and the Money forwarded with every subscription, we have, no doubt of being able to make the now system work with as much advantage to ourselves as it certainly will for the rea ding community.

THE only Magazine devoted to Ladies, and conducted by members of their own sex. Composed entirely of original articles, by the most eminent writers of the age;—and embellished with a larger num ber and greater variety of costly, elegant, and attractive Pictorial illustrations tban any publication. Edited by Mrs. Sarah J. Hale, Morton M'Michael, Mrs L. H. Si. gournev, L. A. Godey. Contributors to each Number. Miss C. M. Sedgwick, Miss E. Leslie, Mrs. E. C. Embury, Theodore S. Fay, N. P. Willie, Mrs. C. Lee Heats, T. S. Arthur, Mrs. E. F. Ellet. ldannouncing to his numerous patrons and the public at large his arrangements for the year 1842, the proprietor of Godey'e Lady's Book takes occasion to acknowledge the unparalleled and triumphant success of his Magazine, which has now reached the extraordinary number of 40,000 Copies Monthly, being a larger edition than has ever been printed of any other work, of any descrip• tion, in America. This success he is a ware has been attained by the vast superio rity which the Lady's Book has always maintained over the various contemporary magazines which have attempted to rival its merits, a superiority which be is still de. termined to preserve, by keeping it, in all Ile departments, Literary, Intellectual and Moral, as well as Pictoral, Emblematic, Artistic and Mechanical. That this is no idle boast, he appeals to the experience of the past twelve years, in all which time he has made no promise to the public that he has not fully performed, nor undertaken anything which his means did not enable him to accomplish to the ut termost. Entering as he is- about to do, on the 24th volume of the Lady's Book with 'in. creased energy and accumulated resources; with an ample knowledge of the business in which he is engaged• acquired by long years of unromitted application—with a subscription list unparalleled in the aerials of literature; with numerous 'facilities not possessed by any other publisher; - with well-digested and wide-extended arrange ments--and above all, with a steadfast pur. pine of maintaining the lofty elevation his work has reached, the proprietor has not hesitated to incur expenses which under other circumstances might well prove start. ling but by means of which be will be ena bled to make the Lady'. Book the richest, the rarest, the most attractive. and the most valuable periodical, intrinsically and extrin sically, ever offered to the public. Literary Department. Mrs. S. J. Hale, L. H.

He will be entitled to furnish occasional articles from Maria Edgeworth, Mary Russell Mitford, Mrs. Cornwell Baron Wilson, Mrs. S. C. Hall, Mrs. Holland, Mary Howitt, and other English lady-wri. tars of distinction,. some of whom have al ready published in the Lady's Book the first original contributfons they have ever made to American Literature. Nor has he omitted to procure the sem ces of eminent writers of the opposite sex. Aware of the universal and well-deserved popularity of N. P. Willis, Esq., and con fident that the productions of his graceful and eloquent pen will be highly acceptable to the readers, of the Lady's Book, the pro prietor has entered into an arrangement by which he will , be able to give in each num ber of the work, an exclusive article from that gentleman; and be has also retained all 1 the contributors whose writings have here tofore given such general satisfaction, in eluding W. G. Simms Esq., Professor Ingraham°, Professor Dimity, Professor Frost, Professor Walter, Park Benjamin, Esq., R. S. Mackenzie, LL. D., T. S. Arthur, Esq., H. W. Herbert, Joseph C. Neal, Hon. Robert T. Conrad, Dr. J. K. Mitchell, Epes Sargent, G. P. Morris. Joseph R. Chandler, Robert Morris, P. Earle, N. C. Brooks, E. , Holden, A. McMakin, L. F. Tasistro, Rufus Dawes, E. D. Squirer, J. McLellan, J. J. Al drich. With such aid, it is not too much to sat, that the Literary Department of the Lady's Book will surpass anything that has ever been or can be attempted. Ornamental Department - It is a source of no little pride to the pro prietor of the Lady's Book, that he first in. troduced into this country the plan of ' fur nishing, along with 'a monthly periodical of elegant literature, einbAlishments of an attractive and costly character. The first steel engravings accompany such , a work were given by him; the first mezzotint en graving was given by him, the first : pat tetns efface work and embroidery were given by him; tha, first coloured plates or Fashions were given by him; the Ist music was given by him. These are . things to which he would not refer, if some of those who have essayed to follow in his foot steps, not content with imitating all he 'de signs, even to the form of his book, the size of his type, and the color of his' cover, had not foolishly put forward claims to originality, and attempted to found a right i to an exclusive merit on doing that which be had borrowed from his example. But what he hasdone iieretofore in the way of embellishment to his book, though it far ex- ceeded any effect of those who strove to cony his movements, cannot compare with what he now means to do. His arrange ments for this department of his work have been projected on the most liberal scale of expenditure, involving such an extent of outlay as has never before been - dreamed of in any periodical, European or American. As an evidence of his intentions, be now states that each number of the. Lady's Book for the ensuing year. will contain, at least, Three Splendid Engravings; embracing in the series every possible va riety of subject, Historical, Landscape, Pic turesque. Portraiture, Imaginative, Em blematical, and executed in every possible variety of the art; Mezzotint, Stipple, Me dallion, and that most chaste and expres sive• manner, the Line and Dot combined, which has given such world wide celebrity to the works of modern artists. The American Guido Plates of Fash ions, colored, will be given every. mod.. In order to give the greatest attractive ness to the subjects of his embellishments the proprietor has given orders to various American Painters, of established repute ticin, who are now engaged in preparing ex pressly for the Lady's Bonk, numerous Oriental Pictures, on National and Histo rical events, some of which are nearly completed, and will soon be in the hands of the engraver. Among the painters thus engard he may. enumerate. J. G. Chapman, Pointer of the National Picture of the Baptism of Pocahontas. P. F. Rothermel, J. P. Frankenstein, S. S. Osgood, of Boston, I. Williams.&c. He has also established a correspondence in London, through which he will receive early proof impressions of the finest prints executed in that metropolis, and will thus be constantly supplied with an immense va riety, from which to make suitable selec tions, In addition to this, he will receive the only copies of the celebrated prize En gravings of the Edinburg Apollo Gallery, sent to this country, one of which the Ex• amination of Shukspeare before Sir Thomas Lacy, he has already given to his patrons, and another of which, The Stray Children he has now in preparation, as well as a se ries of Pictorial Illustrations of Shakspeare. Determined to satisfy every variety of taste, the proprietor has also made arrange ments for a series of tLe most superb Mez zotints ever executed in this, country sev eral of which are already engraved, and will be given to his_subscribers as soon as a sufficient number ?/f impressions can be taken to supply his immense edition. Be side the merriest; of H. S. Sadd, of N. Y. who has now in hand a number of plate, she has secured ' the invaluable aid of Mr. Humphrey', of London, who is universally conceded to stand in the foremost rank of English Engra vets, whose splendid efforts in Mezzotint have commanded the admira tion of the most distinguished amateurs and critics. This eminent artist is now enga ged in preparing, expressly for the Lady's Book, a number - of Mezzotint Pictures, which the proprietor pledges himsef will be of an unsurpassed excellence; and of the most interesting and attractive subjects. , To guard against all possibility of difficul ty hereafter, he has likewise ordered from England a Complete Mezzotint Establish ment, andinimediately on its arrival, Mr. W. F. Tucker, of this city, will commence operations in that department of art. In order to procure the various embel lishments in season, the proprietor has made permanent arrangements with the following eminent engravers, all of whom are now engaged in executing steel plates for the Lady's Book.
