TO THE FRIENDS OF WESTERN LIT-

ERATURE. The differences which have, for some time

past, subsisted between the Editor of the Western Monthly Magazine, and its late Publisher, Mr. Eii Taylor, can no longer interfere with the regular publication of the work . The first number of the fifth volume, considerably improved in paper and execution, will be issued in a few days; the February number will be immediately put in hand, and the undersigned hope to have the third number ready for delivery on the first of March, and to issue the successive numbers punctually on the first day of each month. This periodical has been in existence five

years, and its devotion to the interest of the

West, and to the cultivation of literature

throughout the Great Valley, have met with suficient success to stimulate the Editor to

renewed exertions, and the new Publishers

to a full determinution that no circumstances within their control, shall interfere with its

extensive circulation

The undersigned have taken upon them-

selves the responsibility of publishing the

work under disadvantages quite unforeseen

when it was first introduced to their notice.--Mr. Eli Taylor, the late Publisher, has tho't proper to withhold the names of half the regular subscribers, which deprives the new Publishers of the power of circulating the forthcoming number as extensively as they at first

expected. They have, however, sufficient confidence in the spirit and liberality of the friends of Western Literature, to induce them to publish a sufficiently large edition to supply all the demands of the full list of subscribers; and they have to request, that all to whom the forthcoming number may not be

sent, will be kind enough to consider the omission as unavoidable, and to send in their names to the Publishers. FLASH, RYDER, & CO., Booksellers and Publishers,
