TO THE FRIENDS OF WESTERN LITERATURE. .The differences which have, for some time past, subsisted between the Editor of the Western Monthly Magazine, and its late Publisher, Mr. Eli 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 pur in hand, jnd the undersigned hope to have the third number ready for delivery on lire frst 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 trie Great Valley, have met with sufficient success to stimulate ihe Editor to renewed exertions, and the new Publishers

to a full determination 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 reg ular 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 he spirit and liberality of the friends of Western Literature, to induce them to publish a sufficiently large edition to supply ail the demands of the full lisi of subscribers; and they have to request, that all to whom the forihcoming number may not be sent, will be kind enough to consider the omission as unavoidable, and to send in their names to the Publishers.
