TO THE FRIENDS OF WESTERN LITERATURE. The dill erenccs which have, for some lime 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, M considerably improved in paper and execution, will be issued in a few days; the February number will be immediately put in hand, pnd 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, anil to the cultivation of literature throughout the Great Valley, have met with sufficient success to stimulate the 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 unders'med have taken upon themselves 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 (he 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, lo induce them to publish a sufficiently large edition to supply all the demands of the lull list of subscribers; and they have lo 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 Publisher?.

To render the Farmer interest

ing and useful, the state board have taken measures to secure the contributions of a number of distinguished agriculturists, and civil Engineers. They have also engaged the services of M. M. Henkle, as editor of the proposed work. The Farmer, besides the subjects to whic!) it is especially directed, will embrace a brief summary of general news, and miscellaneous matter; but party politics will bo allowed no place in its columns. The Indiana Farmer will be printed on new type, and fine paper, of a super royal, and in quarto form. The price will be $1 per year, cr for twenty six numbers, payable within three months after the issuing of the first P'niiber ,91 50 after six months; or two if'jllars if the payment be delayed to the end oV the year.

CINCINNATI MIRROR. snw announcement. : Circumstances connected with Mr. Marshall's private arrangements, having induced him to discontinue 'The Buckey,' that publication, in accordance with the wish of a large majority of its subscribers, will be issued hereafter under its old title, the 'Cincinnati Mirror.' The undersigned, in becoming the proprietors of this extensively circulated periodical, have the gratification of stating to the old friends of the 'Mirror,' and to the more re cent subscribers of the 'Buckeye,' that Messrs. William D. Gallagher and Thomas II. Shrcve will resume its editorial management. In mentioning the names of tl. ' ce gentlemen, whose industry and literary quu'.fications are so well known, the publishers deem it superfluous to expiate on ihe future character of the work; under their superintendance the CixcixxatiMirror attained its thousands of subscribers, and was recognized by most literary periodicals in the union, as inferior to none of its cotemporaries; incontestible proofs of the estimation of their merits, and of the appreciation of Western Literature. The arrangements which have been entered into, will place the Cincinnati Mirror under better, auspicics, than have attended it at any time since the period of its commence ment. It will contain a larger quantity of reading matter, than heretofore, and will be printed on auper-royal paper, with entirely new brevier type. Every number will he furnished with a handsome- cover; and the work will be published every Saturday morning, and sent by mail the same day lo distant Subscribers.
