three columns wide. Its contents will embrace subjects selected and
arranged so as to give, in the most agreeable manner, authentic
INFORMATION and AMUSEMENT to every one.
The Journal will have ONE NEW and INTERESTING NOVEL, continued from
number to number, alone worth the price of subscription; besides
numerous TALES, ROMANCES, STORIES and POETRY.
In the DRAMA, the proprietor presents a most agreeable feature, which
does not exist in any other Journal, viz.: that of publishing in its
columns an ENTIRE ACTING PLAY. The plays will be carefully and
judiciously selected, offering what may be made use of, with a little
tact in adaptation, as a very Pleasing and Instructive PARLOR
ENTERTAINMENT.
Improvements in AGRICULTURE, GARDENING, the Rearing of Domestic
Poultry, etc., will be drawn from all reliable sources.
This Journal will aim at instructive “HINTS for HOME LIFE,” addressed
to the Ladies, on Health and Diet, Household Affairs, a Mother’s Cares,
