Iff offering lo the patro.ingu of the puMic, * new "literary paper, we arc |ierlr?ctly aware that wo are*\>ut repeating an oil-tried experiment. The reeulk, however, we would lain brieve. will bo different. We are, it ta true, consciou* ol the p^e^ion of no talent or ability aupcrior to that of our pre leocaxora, but wc rely, (perhape, indrrd, with too much of the ardor of ail extxriiMtiitoi) upon the inereaaing taalc of the aire of literature ; a laate, the evi.ienoo of which la before us in the number ?l jjc r tomcats, en^tiged solely ia IU etiuvauon?in me lyccu.na, the libraries and a;adei?iet devoted to ?cienee snJ learning. Whilst the North and toe West are thus assidioosljr eta ployed in the exemplary task of mental improvessent, we will not suppose that the South intenJs longer to bear the weight of that heavy incumbus which heretofore has whelmed it ia au intellectual slumber more lasting and profound than that physical ono which erewliile enwrapped the seven sleepers of tiphesus. i it is with a hope thus founded, and with an intention if wo cannot win success, at least to deserve it; that notwithstanding the uniform failure of those who have preceded us, we hive ventured 10 claim the patronage and to labor for the upniause of the | public. The staka shall be played fir; how the game is to end, time only can determine. Our object will be to render the column* of the Bulletin both useful and amusing. For this purpose, while ono portion is devoted to original Essays, Tales and Poem*, furnished from time to time by our correspondents and collaborators, anoth< r portion shall be occupied by selected matter culled from every spot of interest and instruction, in the vast field of literaluro. The productions of the press shall pass in review i ... -~.i ?*- 1- 1 ?i?y ttuu vii wcij wun wiiidi uicnw our notice, an impartial criticism shall be bestowed.? To light literature and to learned science shall alike l?e ineted their due portion oi censure or of praise, and it shall not be our faults if our patrons do not know the intrinsic value of every hook, (at least in onr own opinion) before they begin to read. He, says Dr. Franklin, who is good at excuses, is ( seldom good at any thing else; and the same we opine may be said of promises; lest therefore our readets come to sora* such conclusion as this, we will, without further ado, make our bow, and leave thein in future to judge from our labors whether we do, or do net, deserve their patronage.

In coosequi-nee ot? this great nnforseeu increes-- of j | new subscribers, he has determined to double the number of impressions for tiie subsequent year; , i while he mo?t graiolully appreciates ti c unpreoe- , 1 dented encouragement cxtcnuod to the Ladies' CoinI pauim, and at th same time, he begs to assure ilie , readers of t he magazine aqd the public in general, i that it is his ardent resolution to meet it with a cori respondigg liberality on his part to merit its continuance. , SPLENDID STEEL ENORAVINOS , by our best aitisls, ccompany e.?ch num ?er?illus- t Hated by Tales and spirited Sketcues?which will, ] as heretofore, continue to be magnificent an I far superior to those published iu any other magazine in America. , The Ladies'Companion contains a larger quantity j of reading (han any other magazine issued in this t country, and its subscription price is only three dol- * lars a year, while the great combination of talent ( secured for the coming year will render it unequal- ( led by any other periodical. ( ITS LITERARY CHARACTER! f Will undergo considerable change, as the publisher c of the Lacies' Companion, in order to show his appreciation oft ho public favor already extended to 1 him so liberally, has scoured the aid of Mrs. Ann S. Stephens* lale Editor of tho 'Portland Magazine,'' and author 1 of a series of the most beautiful and popular tales H ever presented to an American public. No lady 1 possessing greater variety of talent, or better calcu- r iatcd to aid in conducting a ladies magazine, could have been selected fiom the galaxy of female genius which is the glory of our country. In addition to * the poweiful talents of Mrs. Stephens, the proprietor has secured a list of contributors, which combined will render the Ladies' Companion one ol the most interesting and talented magazines of the day. f Mrs. L.

It has t ever been and will continue to be the desire to have all pieces of music printed correctly and free from errors. THE WORK IN GENERAL. ] Over every department an equally careful super s vision will bo strictly exercised by the Editors, and t all appropriate expenditures will be liberally bestowed as it is the design ofthc publisher, with the aid of his I contributors and the advice of his friends to make < the Ladies' Companion distinguished for the beauty I and accuracy of its typography?the variety and I high tone of its literary articles?the quality and value of its music?and tho unequalled splendor of its pictorial embelishments. : It is the deter in-ition of the publisher toMisc eve- I ry means to maintain the superiority which the La- ( dies' Companion has obtained. For four years he < has steadily pursued a course ol improvement, and i he flatters himself that his present facilities are such ] as to give the Ladies' Companion eminent advantages ' overall other publications of its character. From the foregoing it will be perceived that tho Ladies' Companion embraces every department with- \ ' in the range of Belles-Lett res and the Fine Arts: t , and no exertions or expense will be deemed too great j to render the work equal to any oilier extant. The flattering and general testimonials of nearly every | contcniparary journal in the United States, and in , fact, many on -lie other side of the Atlantic, have | strongly asserted the Undeniable claims ot lhe Ladies' Companion to the supjort of the public generally. There is no vork that gives iis read rs such a great return for their subscript in. The Prize Articles will all be published during the I year.
