PROSPECTUS. OF THE NEW-YORK AMULET, AND Ladies'1 Literary and Religious Chronicle. o:&:o QTjlllE primary object of this work will be, to IL check the rapid progress of two alarming evils, so fatally prevalent in our country, viz : Intemperance and Infidelity which, like the canker-worm, are stripping the green walks of life of all flowers, and leaving the moral world a leaflets desart. To do this the more effectually, we shall pourtray in the most vivid colours, thc deformity and deleterious consequences of these most deadly evils, by interesting moral

- - w talcs, sketches, fragments, essays, and scriptural illustrations. We shall endeavour to cherish in the hearts of our readers, the sublime and benevolent sentiments of the blessed gospel of Jesus Christ to exhibit thc beauties and rewards of virtue in all their captivating loveliness to awaken the better feelings of human nature to cultivate thc social and domestic aflections to lead the mind through the most delightful avenues, to the bowers of happiness and peace to elevate and enlarge the conceptions to imbue the understanding with the most exalted ideas of illimitable attributes nnd perfections of the Great Divinity thereby leading mankind to " fear Cod and keep his commandments." To accomplish these designs, we shall call to our aid all the eloquence of truth, clothed in the

most fascinating torms such as moral essays,

simple or pathetic tales, varying " trom grave to gav, from lively to serene" poetical sketchesdidactic article's in verse and sometimes to en

liven our pages, a tale of fancy a humorous storv an allegory a ballad or, a song, will receive an insertion. In each and in all, the great
