The moet splendid and valuable Monthly Perioilicul ever published. The only magazine devoted to Ladies and conducted by members of Iheir own sex. Composed entirely of original articlee, by the most eminent writers of the oge; and embeilished with a larger number and a greater variety of costly, elegant and attraclive pictorialil' lustrations, than nny similar publication. ED1TED BY Mrs. Sarah J. Hale, Morton M'Michael, Mrs. L, H, Sigourney,L. A. Godey. CONTRIBUTOHS TO EACU NUMBER. Miss. C. M. Sedgwick, N. P. Willis, Miss E. Leslie, Mrs. C. Lee Henez, Mrs. E. C. Embury, T. S. Arthur, Theodore S. Fay, Mrs. E. F. Ellet. In announcing to his numerous patrons and thu public at large, his arrangements for llie year 1842, tlu; proprietor ot' Godey 's Lidy's Book, takes occasion to ackuowleu'ge the unpurallelec' and triumphantsuccess of bis Magazine, which has now reached the extraordinary nuinher offorly thousand monthly; beinga larger edition than has ever been prmted of any other work of any description in America. This succss he is avvare has been attained by the vast superiority which tho Lndy's Book has ahvays maintained over thecontemporary magazines whicli have atlempled to rival its merite, a suporiority vvhich he is still determined to preserve by keeping it, in all its departments lilerary, inlellecttial and moral, ae well as pictoriül, emblematic, artistic, and mechanical. That this is no ïdle boast, hc appeals to tlie experience of the past twelve yeare, in all wliich time, he has made no promise to the public whicli he has not strictly performea, nor underiaken anylhing which bis means did not enable him to accomplish to ihe utmost. Entering, as he is about lo do, on the 24th Volume of the Lady's Book, with increascd energy and accumulnted resources :wilh an ampie knowledge of the bu siness in which he is engaged, acquired by long year3 of unremitted application: with a subscription list unparalleled in tho annals of literaiure; with numerous facilities not possessed by any other publisher; with welldigested nnd wideextended arguments; and above all, with a steadfast purpose of maintaining the lofty elevation bis work has reached, the proprietor has not hesitafed to incur expenses, which under other circu:u stances might prove startling, but by means of which he will be enabled to raako the La dy's Book, the richest, the rarest, the most attractive, and the most valuabie periodical, ntrinsical and extrinsically, ever uiFcied to the American public. Literarv Departmemt. - It has ever been the aim of the proprietor to impart to the Lady's Book a high literary and moral tone, and for this purpose he hap, without regard to cost, procured the aid ot' the most eminent writers and, for eeveral years past, has commitled its editorial supervisión to J. Hale, Mrs. Lvdia H. Sigourney,and Miss E. Leslie, ladies of wkom not only their own sex, but the hole country, have reason to be proud. In this respect, the Lady's Book enjoys a decided advantage over all other publicatione, as it is ihe only work devoted to ladies, ladiss derive an ad vantüge which must be obvious to every parent, husband, brother, and friend,as wel! as to every lady who properiy appreciates the dignity and impurtance of her sex.

Nor has he omitted to pro- cure the assisiance of eminent writers of oth sex. A ware of the universal and well deservod popularity of N. Willis, Eac. ; and coniident that the productions of his gracefuliind elegant pen will be highly acceptable 10 the readers of the Lady's Book, he proprietor bas entered into an arrangement, by which he will be able to give in each number of bis work an exclusive arlicle rom the gentleman; and he has also reiainall of the contributors whose writings have ïeretofore given such ampie satisfaction including Epes Sargent, VV.

With euch aid, it ia not too much to say, hat the Literary Department of the Lady's 3ook will surpisá any thing that has ever been orean be attempted. Ornamental Dkpartment. - It is a source of no little pricle to the Proprietor of the Lady's Book, that he first introduced into this country the plan of furnishing, along with a monthly periodical of elegant literature, embellishments of an attractive and costly characler. The first 6teelengravings iccompanying such a work were given by him; the first mezzolint engravmg was given by him; the first patterns of lace-work and embroidery were given by him; the first ooiored pintes of fashion were given by him; the first music was given by him. These are things to which he would not refer, ifsome ofthose who have essayed to follow in his footsteps, not content with imitating all his designs, 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 orig inalify, and ottempted to found a right to an exclusive merit on doing that which they have borrowed froro his example. But what- - l"jj he has done heretofore in the way of embd lishments to his Book.though itfarexceed ed any effort of those who strove to conv b-is movetnents, cannot compare wiih what he now raeans to do . His arrangements for this department of his work have been pro jected on the most liberal scale of expendí ture, nvolying an extent of outlay such as has never bèfore been dreamcd of in any periodical, European or American. As an vi' denct; of his intentions, he now states that eachnumber oí' the Lady's Book for the ensu year, wül coqiain at least three splendid engravings; embracing in the senes eveír possiMe vanety of subjecls. Historial,Land scape, Picturesque, Portraiture,. Imaginare and Emblematical, and executed in every pos sible variety of the arl; mezzotint, lino and mezzotint, slipplc, medalion, and that most citaste and expresaive inanner,. the line and dot cornhint'd, which has given snch world widecelebrily lo the worka of modem artibts Splendidlj colored plates of the fashions' willalso begivcn every ir.oni})( contaminé at least four femal. figures, and tuibodyint in every ïristnuco ilie latesl coslumes, receiv. ed direclly frotn a correspondent at Paris. In order to give the greatest attractivenesg. to the subjects of hU embellishnients, t,e Propnetor has given orders to vaiious Axne. ric;in Painters, ofeBtablished repulation,wlio are now engnged in preparing expreesly fop tlie Lady's Buoli,numerous original pictures, oa National and Hislorical evcnts, some. of which are nenrly coinpleted, and 6oon will le in the hands of the engraver. Among th& painters thus engaged he may enumérale J G Chapmon, Pander of Ihe National Pi ture of the Baptism of Pocahontas. P F Rothermel, J P Frankenstein,, S S Osgood,o Bost.l Williams, Sic.
