per, stitched and covered, anu lurnisnca at the low price of Two Dollars and fifty cents per annum. The Casket is a collection from the choicest pieces of the Saturday Evening Post, made with a reference to the difference which should exist in the materials of a weekly paper,

and those of a monthly publication, the i former of course enriched with essays, j poetry, anecdotes, and those set oft' by a ; recital of the occurrences of the week. j The latter can receive little value horn a j mere detail of events, many of which J

would cease to be interesting before they j

were recorded. The vast quantity of matter crowded, by small type, and careful arrangement into the columns of every number ol the Saturday Evening Post, v ill, in the course of a month, furnish the most ample materials from which to form an interesting periodical work such as the Casket has been considered by its partial friends, and such as we intend, it shall be. Notwithr standing the fact, that the Casket is but a collection from the columns of the Saturday Evening Post, we confidently predict, and indeed we are sanctioned, in the ex

the subscribers to our weekly paper. A large number of those who take the "Post," depend upon that paper for the news of the week it is therefore read with avidity by almost every member of the family where it is received, and this general use frequently injures its appearance so much, as almost to render it unfit for the file, and for binding. The numbers too, by this genet al use, are not unft equently lost, mutilated, or entirely destroyed, and the file thus broken. The Ca-.kct is calculated to prevent this inconvenience, and to furnish, at a very cheap price, ail the useful matter for which the w-eekly pspcr would be desirable when bound. In thus giving a permanent form and select association to the choice pieces of our weekly contributions, it is confidently anticipated, that new and successful inducements will be held out for the exercise of superior talent, and unusual care in our literary depaitmcnt. In addition to the recommendation of neatness in the general appearance and particular attention to the typographical execution, it is our intention to en. belis!) each number of the " Casket" with three hansomc Engravings, from the hands of some of the most distinguished artists of the country.

JOS. WARNER. Washington, Daiess county,) March 1, 1827. 4-tf J MASONIC MIRROR, and Mechanics' Intelligencer. BY MOORE & SEVEY. THIS work has been two years before the public. Its success has been such as to place it, in point of numbers, on an equality with the first periodical publications in the country : and the publishers, sensible of the many obligations due their Masonic Brethren, for the exercise of their influence in giving it this extensive circulation, are encouraged to a renewal of their best efforts. Free Masonry is a subject that has engrossed the attention of man, from the primitive ages to the present : and its mystic beauties, like its elder sister, Re ligion, have commanded the respect and adoration of the wise and good. The first object of the Institution, is to preserve its members from the immoral infection by which they are surrounded in the various walks of life unite them in the bonds of Charitv c Peace -sublimate thrir minr?

mm.mm'-mM with the noblest principles of na'ure, and render them fit for the service of a purer

being: that, when the Grand Master of the Universe appears in the splendid robes of his majesty and glory, to inspect the Universal Lodge, he may say to them " Well done good and faithful," enter the glorious Temple of the living God, and encircle his throne forever. To inculcate this sentiment, has been the primary object of the mirror, and the publishers have the satisfaction to believe they have not labored in vain. In addition to this, the Masonic Department contains Historical Essays on the Origin and Progress of the Older: Hymns, Songs, and such intelligence as is calculated to interest or instruct. The Scientific Department of the paper, is designed to afford Mechanics, whose avocations and means preclude tbem the perusal of voluminous works, a cheap, but correctsource of information, relative to their trades and professions It contains such extracts Sc original communications, as are best calculated to subserve their views and interests. The Miscellaneous Department comprises Historical Sketches, Fancy Tales Instructive Lessons, Anecdotes, Poetry and such other brandies of Polite Litera'. ture, as are adapted to Female taste, or have a tendency to promote the Youthful Genius in its researches. A summary of Foreign, Domestic, and Political Intelligence is furnished weekly, comprising cvety article of news worthy of record. COXDITIOjVS The Mirror is published every Saturday mornine, on a royal sheet of fai.-
