To ihe former they can only reiterate the assurance so often conveyed, that as the Mirror has nowr succeeding in pres.ervng their good will through the arduous peri od of its infancy and its youth, so in muturity it will endeavor stiU to deserve the applause which its earlier effects received. fo the latter they would observe, that no expense shall be spared, and no exertions relaxed to render it at least as attractive and papular as any of its cotemporaries. Th,e experience of past years will give confidence to those who have watched oir career; while the value that will soon close will be an earnest of that which is to come, to our more recent friends, so that the reputation already secured to our publication may be maintained and enhanced. To both we beg leave to declare, that in. the Ornamental Embellishments of the Mir ror, the best native talent has been engaged; that many painters have received commissions from, us for the execution of subjects ot nation al history and national, scenery; and that en gravers of the first merit have been, secured to render these works fitting illustrations of! our, numbers, liowever beautiful may have been the preceding woiksofart which, have ornamented our rages, and nowever loud and frequent has been the applause which has greeted their publication, we have no slight satisfaction in being enabled to state, that these in preparation surpasses any thing of the kind ever known in the United States, No literary periodical published in this country have ever attained such an extended circular lion ss the Mirror, which is of course the best proof ol its congeniality to the national taste, and an unequivocal approval of its system, aud the principle ot its management. In the course of the volume four splendid Quarto steel Embellishments, designed, pain ted and engraved hy the best and most emi nent artists in the country, will be published, together with numerous wood engravings, u lustrative of curious and interesting scenes, incidents and antiquities, with about fifty pieces of French, German, Italian, and British Music, arranged fof the Pianoforte, Harp, GuJtar &c, The same taste which has presided oyer our Musical selections, will superintepd those hereafter to appear, and the principles which, guide us in this department will be as they nave hitherto been, novelty and excellence, the beauty of the poetry and the melody of the aciompaniament. 1 he character of ou r foreign correspondence is too well known to he descanted upon here; it is sufficient to state, that the choicest wri ters have promised their co-operation in the iiomc department; anq that notwithstanding the enormous expense we have incuned, we hall continue to appropriate all available tal ent, and if possible increase the claims of the Mirror to public support.

Arrangements, ire about being made to resume the issuing of a periodical newspaper from the printing office here, which has lately been, interrupted by unavoidable circumstances. The huijding of bridges has commenced across Indian Creek below, and Ptymb'Creck above, which when completed wil render Vcvay easily accessible at all times, from all fiarts of the county without ferryingj and tend argely to. increase its trade. Qwing to i!s natural advantages over all other places in the county, Vevay was selected by the commissioners appointed by the Legislature, a? the most suitable place fur the county seat, and accordingly dul establish the scat of justice for said county of Switzerland to be anq remain permanently fixed on the ub 'c stluarctf aJ town, v hou?e now staml- the siluc: vhere the courtthe most centra on the river, suitable to build a. tp.wn on.

Materials for building, can be obtained a cheap, if not cheaper, than any where the on the Ohio river. The country back abounds with a4 yaiiety of the best timber, and many saw mills are in operation on Plumb and Indian creeks, from twp to eight miles distant from town; in addition to which, there i ir.

said town, in full operation, one of the best steam saw piiijs in the western country.

Stone,for building and paving of the host o,r..'.!ity, an: abundant and coinenient, as well chiv. of the best quality, for making hi jck. Possessing so many advantages, it must be obvious to all men of discernment, that Vevay, at no yery remote period, is destined to lie one among the first rate towns on the great Ohio liver. I'radesman, Mechanics and laborers of all kinds, of steady and industrious habits, are much wanted, and such who are not settled, for life, are earnestly invited to come and examine the premises, and secure to themselves a spot for the trilling sum of sixty 'o three iiCNDREn dollars, upon which ilie'y caii with ease and in a short tirnc make, for themselves a comfortable home, 'Where (hey may literally enjoy the bhin'g of life "under their own vine and ir peach tree."
