Embury, T. S. Arthur, Theodore S. Fay, Mrs. E. F. Ellet. In announcing to his numerous patrons and lh pubüc ut large, h;s arrangements for the ycar 1842, the proprietor of Godey's L idy's Dook, takes occasion to I edge the unparallelec' and triumphant success . uf his Magazine, which hns now reached . the extraordmary number offorly thousand monthly ;beinga larger edition thnn bas ever been printed of uny other worU of any description in America. Tliis sucess he is aware has been attained by the vas: superiority which the Lady's Book bas ulways maiutained over thecontemporary magazines which liave atlempted to rival its merite, a 8'jporiority which he is still determined to preserve by keeping it, in all its departtnents literary, iutellectual and moral, as well as pictorial, emblematic, artistic, and mechanical. That thia is no idle boast, hc appeals to the experience of the past twelve years, in all which time, he kas made no promise to the public which he has nut striclly performed, nor undenaken anything whuli his means did not enable him to accomplish to the utmost. Entering, as he is about to do, on the 24th Volume of the Lady's Book, with increasod energy and accumulated resources:with an ampie knowledge of the business in which he is eog.iged, arquired by long yeura of unremilted application: wilh a subst'riptlon libt unparalleled in the annals of literaiure; with numerous facilities not possessed by any other publishcr; with welldigested and wideextended arguments; and above all, with a steadfast purpose oí' maintáining the lolty elevation his work has reached, the proprietor lias not hesitaied to incur expenses, which under other circum sianccs might prove 6tartling, but by means of which he will be enabled to make the Lady's Book, the riche6t, the rarest, the most attractive, and the most valuable periodical, intrinsical and extrinsically, ever offeied to the American public. Literary 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 hae, without regard to cost, procured the aid of the most eminent writere and, for eeveral years past, has committed its editorial supervisión to Mrs. J. Hale, Mrs. Lydia H. Sigourney,and Miss E. Lesüe, Iadiés of ivhom not only their own aex, but the hole eountry, have reason to be proud. In ibis respect, the Lady's Book enjoys a decided advantage over all other publications, as it is the only work devoti'd to ladies, ladiss derive an ad vantiige which mu9t be obvious to every paren, husband, brother, and friend.as well as to every lady who properly appreciates the dignity and impoitance of her sex. He will be enabled to furtiish articles from Mrs F C Embury, Mrs H B Stowe, Mrs F S Ofegood, Mra. S. Smith, Mrs M H Parsona. Mrs. J. Thayer, Mrs A M F Aunan, Mrs. O L. Hentz, Mrs E F Eilet, Mrs. E.C.

Nor bas he omitted to pi o cure the assistance of eminent writers of both sex. Aware of the universal and well deserved popularity of N. Willis, Esq.; and contident that the productions of Jiis grsceful ;md elegant pen will be highly-acceptable to the readers of the Lady's Book, the proprietor bas entered jnto an arrangement, by which he will be able to give in each number of his work an exclusive arlicle from the gentleman; and he lias also retainall of the contribuí ors whose writings havt herelofore given such ampie satisfaction in- cluding Epes Sargent, W.

With such aid, it is not too much to soy, that the Literary Department of the Lady's Book will eurp-iss any thing that has ever been orean be attempte.d. Ornamenial Dkpartment. - It is a source of no litlle pride to the Proprietor of the Lady's Book, that he first introduced inlo this country the plan of furnishing, along with a monthly periodical of elegant literature, embellishments of an attractive and costly characler. The first eteel engravinga accompanying such a work were given by him; the first mezzotint engraving was given byhim; the first paiterns of lace-work and embroidery were given by him; the firsl colored plates 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 follovv in bis Cootsteps, 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 inulity, and Bttempted to found a right to an exclusive roerit on doing that which they have borrowed frrra hit example. Bat what, - 'SLSf he has done he re tofo re in the way of embel lishments to hia Book, though ilfarexxeeded. any effort of thoBe vrho strove to copy bis movements, cannot compare wiih what he now meaiis lo do.. Iiis arrangemente for this department ofhis work have been projecied on the most liberal scale of expendil ture, involving an extent of outlay suchas has never before been dreamed of in any pe_ riodical, European or American.
