I I duced into this country the plan of famishing, i a long, with a monthly periodica! of elegant lit- j erHture* embellishments of, an attractive and | costly character. / The first sreel engravings accompanying cur h a work were given by J him ; tlie first mezzotint engraving was given , by him; the first patterns of lace work and! warn <ritfpn i?v him : the first ciiiwi ,w vi v coloured plates of Fashions wore given by lorn; the first music was given by him.? These are things to which he weuld not refer,, if some of those who luve essayed to follow, ill his footsteps, not content with imitating all he designs, even to the form of his book, the size of his type, and. the colour of his cover, had not foolishly put forward claims to originality, and attempted to found a right to an exclusive merit on doing thai which they-had borrowed from his example. But what he: has done heretofore in the way of embellish, ment to his book, though it far exceeded any effiirt of those who strove to copy his move, ihente, cannot compare with what he now means to do. H'S arrangements for this department of his work have been projected oft j the most liberal scale of expenditure, involf. i ingr such an extent of outlay as has never be. fore been dreamed of in any periodical. Euro pean.or .American. As an evidence of his indentions, tie now states that each number of the Lady's Book for the ensuing year, will j contain, at least, I Three Splendid Eugazings; ^ -a embracing in the series every possible variety, of subject, Historical Landscape, Picturesque, Portraiture, Imaginative, Emblematical,' ami executed in every, possible variety of the art; i Mezzotint, Line and Jf^zzotint, Stipple, Medallion, and that most chaste and expressive' manner, the Line and Dot combined, which has given each world-wide celebrity to the works of modern artists.
