MECUM will undergs several important improvements instead of

four paces, it will be increased to flight of! -nearly the present sua, and consequently will contain almost double the quantity of the reading matter which is now given making it one of the Largest and Neatest Quartoes ever published ;i the 'United states. it will be printed -on new type and white tine papei, and the Embellishments will be considerably multiplied, Sz of a superior order. Persons desirous of procuring the work at the beginning of the new volume, will please send their orders at oncers they may fail to be supplied, as but few copies will be published more than are actually subscribed for at the time. 07-Tbe subjects which are particularly, em--tiuced ib this work will be more distinctly un oerstuod from the following brief analysis of j heui : The Drama forms a material portion of the Gentleman's Vade Mecnm every week an entire Plat or Farce is riven. Tbey are selected with u single eye to their merits alone; a prefe rence. however, will be extended in all case; to native productions, when they can be ob taiued. Independent criticisms, carefully eis eluding all invidious comparisons, and recoi mended by their brevity, itrc occasionally inserted; as also biographical Sketches, Anec dotes, and Bon Mots of prominent Comedians of the present and past asjes, of which a rare end inexhaustible compilation is in store. '1 he publisher, bv the liberality of the managers on the two Philadelphia Theatres, and several of other gentlemen connected with the stage,ha obtained an excellent and numerous selection of Play and Farces, for the Vade Mecuru, many of them have never appeared in print. The Turf A faithful record is kept of aH the tlunning and Trotting matches in this country mdp England.

Every tact relative to the breeding, management, keeping, and the diseases ot this invaluable amua! is particularly Attended to. O" The Sporting Intelligence (at home and abroad) occupies a considerable portion of oar columns, and is collected from the most anthen tic sources. Among the Portraits of celebrated Winning Horses which have been riven, are The American Trotting Horse EDWIN FOREST. The Imeertesl Facing Horse, MESSENGER. The American Trotting Mare LADY JACKSON. The Racing Mare, ARIEL, and her fuel, by ECLIPSE. The tree elooded popular Horse CHATEAU AURGAUX. The American Trotting Horse, TOP GAL LANT. Tha well known English Race Horse TOUCHSTONE.

Sporting Besides other matters belonging to this head, there will be published correct accounts of Shooting Matches, Pedestrian Feats, Gymnastic Exercises, Aquatic Excursions, Fishing, Gaming, lie. with anecdotes of noted Dogs. ! Military Uniform. Tho publisher lias employed the assistance of an excellent artist to furnish a regular series of Engravings of the different beautrtul unnerms worn by the princi pal Volunteer Corps of Philadelphia, New York Boston, Baltimore, and other cities, which will be published periodically, with a particular de cription of each, furnished by a competent hand. This subject forms a peculiar attraction to the general interest of the work. Gentlemen's Fashions. A quarterly review is made out bv a rentlemen connected with a fasaionable house in Philadelphia, explanatory f the Tarious improvements and changes which customes worn in the dress circles constantly undergo: py which it will be rendered an easv task for drapers and tailors, at a distance, to suit their customers with the most approved colours end modern style of apparel at the earliest pos aible period. Miscellany. Although the purposes of our eheet may appear to he confided to the several leading subjects which have been stated, we deem it proper to say, that there constantly is in addition to these, a considerable space allowed for miscellaneous matter, such as Tales Foetry, Anecdotes, Legerdemain, and Epitome of News, Places of amusement. Statistics, Agriculture, Domestic Economy, Valuable Receipts i;c. Also a republication of the best and most popular of the old English and American Sport ing and National Songs, set to Music; besides many other matters, regarding which an interest is supposed to exist. By the above explanation, it will be seen that the Gentlemen's Vade Mecuru ispsrticularly designed as a companion for the patrons of the Ttrrf; and Drama, Sporting, the Fash ions, tc. It is worthy ot notice that its patrons, in the course of one year, will be furnised with from forty five to fifty popular riays or Farces the price ot whicu separately, at one 01 our bookstores would be at least $131 Here, then, is an absolute saving of ten dollars In the purchase of a well stored Dramatic Library (t be had foran unprecedented small urn!) without taking in consideration the multiplied variety which is sent along with it, free of additional charge.

ITJ II ORMU n ITIOJT. jjTjUE great nd constantly increasing de IS. maud for the novels of Captain Murryatt has induced the subscriber to commence the publication of a new edition of his unlire writings, in a new form and at a reduced price. Several of bis works that have not yet appeared in this country will be comprised in this series, which will, when completed, be the only uniform eJiltjn of bis writings that has 3 t issued from the prasa. 'lhe work will be published in semi-mor.tbly Numbers at 37 1-2 cents per Number. Each Number complete in itself; and containing the whole of one of his works, equal to J wo Duodecimo volumes: a Title Pag to ench Number. The whole series will bo complete in Eight Numbers, and will form a royal octitvn volume coiitftiiiin? neai ly Twelve Hundred 1'aes for Three Dollars. List of wortts to be comprised in this edition: Frank Mildmny, or the Naval Officer: Newton Foster, or the .Merchant Service, King's Own. Peter Simple, or tht Adventures of a Mid hipman.

It is almost useless for the Subscriber to re mark that this is the cheapest work ever offered. The simple fact of the number of pagbeing neartwalve hundred, and the price only tin ec dollars, tpcaks for itself '1 he public may look upon this as the commencement of an enterprise to furnish them with works of fiction by the most celebrated authors, printed in a beautiful manner, 011 fine paper, at a price that will at once defy competition, and place it in the power of every person to possi-ss a library ol novels at an eitremely Ivw rate. I he advan tate of transmission by mail is one that will uol be overlooked by 11011 residents of large ci lies. 1 be publisher thinks, and he presume s that the public will agree with him, that it is better to issue the works of each author, in se nes, at a ftnttd price, than to publish a contiu uous work at so much per annum, fur by this ar rangemcnt they may subscribe to the works ot one author and reject another.
