We must refer in terms of eulogy to the high tone snd

monthly circulation of about 170,000 conies—in whose pages
are to be found some of the c h o i c e s t lignt a n d general reading of the day. We speak of this work as an evidence of tbe
American People ; and the popularity It haa acquired is
merited. Each Number contains fully 144 pages of r e a d i n g
matter, appropriately Illustrated with good wood-cuts ; ana
it c o m b i n e s in Itself the racy monthly and the more philosophical quarterly, blended with t l y best f e a t u r e s of the dsJly
