WKBSTEft'S WORKS Sixtk Edition. ]

The Speech**, Forentic Argument*, and DiplomaticPaper* of DANIEL WEBSTER; with a

A'otic* e\f kit Life and Work*, by Edw a b d Eviaett.In ti vols. I'tvo. cloth. Price $12.

IT speaks favorably, we think, for the intelligenceand sound national feeling of the peopleif thia country, that Messrs. Little, Brown & Co.have been called upon to issue the sixiAerftftonnf Mr.Wehster's Works. We have been struck with thejustice of the opinion expressed by a distinguishedclergyman of Philadelphia, in a discourse on thecharacter of Mr. Webster, that "the best thing wecan do for training our young men is to place intheir hands the works of this great statesman;"and also of his remark upon the influence of thatrecommendation, "I feet that I have rendered everyfamily a useful service, which may have been induced,through my recommendation, to give it a

place among their household books." from a

general conviction of the truth here expressed, inaddition to the interest which every intelligentreader who once enters upon the perusal of Mr.Webster's speeches or writings, either from tlximportance of the subjects treated, the soundnessand force of the views expressed, or from the charmof the style and manner of discussion, we have nodoubt that these ^orks will attain a much widercirculation and a"Nc more general perusal, thanthose of any other American author. The excellentmanner in which the work it published, andthe reasonableness of the price, recommends it toa general circulationWe learn that an idea has been entertained, to

some extent, that the edition above referred to,edited by Mr. Everett, may be hereafter supersededby another and more complete edition. This is a

mistake. This edition was compiled and edited;.i .' * I,.rM,

»IUI »ltOHIl1CUlll|UK ..........4, 4,. 4' > ..4 4,ster.with all the assistance which he could affordfor rendering it complete, and no new edition can

supersede it. Should there be a further publicationof correspondence or miscellanies, it will bein the form of an addition which will in no degreeimpair the value of the present edition, bu wouldtend to increase its interest.

Jn confirmation of this fact we are authorized topublish the following letter from Mr. FletcherWebster, one of the executors of the late iMr.W ebster:

"Bostos, January 10, 1S63."Missas. Littlc, Hbown & Co.. Gentlemen : I

have been informed that frequent inquiries are

made of you as to the completeness of your editionof Mr Webster's works.

'The present volumes, edited by Mr. ftverettand published by you, contain every thing, up toM arch, 135°2, which was intended to be Includedin his entire published works.

' Itis probable that one or two volumes of correqminrtencpmav hereafter be collected and Dub-In hod in (he same style with your six relumes.This cannot be considered as definitively decidedupon; hut it is certain that no publication will bemade which will render your edition incomplete,or in any way diministf its value."YoorS, very respectfully,

"FLETCHER WEBSTER.""We have already expressed, very decidedly

the opiniou that the Boston Webster Memorial,also published by Messrs. Little, Brown & Co., isthe most satisfactory and interesting of all thebooks which his death has called from the press.The subjects presented are well selected and treatedwith excellent taste and feeling, and it containsthe most valuable of the tributes to the memory ofthe deceased statesman.".Roiton Daily Advertiser"These volumes are a collection of imperishable

models in constitutional law, jurisprudence, internationallaw, diplomacy, finance, legislation,and literature.a collection not to be matched bythis, and hardly by any other country, in capitaland multiform excellence. There is not a page inthese books which may not give the world assuranceof s transcendent intellect; not a page whichwill not make posterity prouder of the land of theirfathers. These productions will be perpetuated as

long as the English language endures."[ Sew York Courier and Enquirer.

"Distinguished men have monuments erectedfor them by their grateful countrymen, and sometimesby the people of another nation, or by a remoteposterity. Daniel Webster has taken care tobuild his own, and in his lifetime The six amplevolumes of his works just published by Messrs.Little & Brown, of Boston, will constitute a more

precioos and durable memorial of his existenceand his greatness, than the granite column, themarble or braxen bust."We shall not attempt to mention, nor even hint

at, the deserving* of Mr. Webster, still less tocompare him with other men. There is a shortercourse, which is to invite the community to weighand value them for themselves. There are hisworks, such of them as have been collected. Therethey s and They ihall speak for him. Theywantonly to have readers to create admirers."

f Xescark Daily Adcertittr."In company with the writings of Washington

and Frankiin, they constitute a most essentialpart of the hulory of our Republic. No lapse oftime ran destroy tbeir value so long as the worldshall feel an interest in knowing how the greatnessof the American nation was built up and preserved,and how the genius arfd spirit of the peoplein the nineteenth century were embodied anilpersonified in one eminent individual.emphaticallythe Ambricas Statiskas."

[Button Courier.

"By the side of the esc ellent edition of the worksof Kiltnund Burke, issued some years since by thesame publishers, every student of politics maywell place this edition of the works of Daniel Webster.".Washington Republic

THE SUBSCRIBERS, responding to the repeatedand urgently expressed wish of eminentand judicious persons in various sections of 3*1 the country, have decided to commence, on the. first of January, 1853, AN ENTIRELY ORIG1>NAL PERIODICAL, under the above title.It is intended to combine the lighter characteristicsof a popular magazine with the "higher and! graver qualities of a quarterly review, filling a

position hitherto unoccupied in our literature.While attractive variety for the general reader *

is thus obtained, there will be an attempt to secure i*%substantial excellence in tach department.To accomplish this we intend that the iwk in

all its mechanical and business aspects a&U besuch as will meet the views of our most distinguishedwriters.such a medium as they wouldseek for in communicating with the world, andsuch as may tempt some to write ably and profitablywho have not hitherto contributed to periodi'cals.We intend that all articles admitted into the

work shall be liberally paid for.We believe that an ample material exists for

such a work; that there is no lack either of talentamong our writers or of appreciation on the part ofthe reading public; and that a properly conducted «%periodical of this kind may bring to light muchtrue genius as yet undeveloped."Putnam's Monthly" will be devoted to the interestsof Literature, Science and Art.in their beet

and pleasantest aspects.Entirely independent of all merely selfish interests,or partisan or sectional leanings, in its

management, it will be open to competent writersfor free discussion of such topics as are deemed importantand of public interest.The critical department will be wholly independentof the publishers, and, as far as possible, of all

personal influence or bias. Wbolesome castigationsof public abuses will be allowed a fair field withoutfear or favor.An elevated national tone and spirit, American

and independent, yet discriminating and just,both to the literature and to the social conditionnd prospects of both hemispheres, will be culti

vated as a leading principle of the work.Special attention will be given to matters con-;

nected with social policy, municipal regulationspublic health and safety, and the practical econo<mies of every-day life.While a subject needs illustration, or pictorial

GRAHAM AND GODEY, BOTH FOR $4 PERANNUM.

THE WIDESPREAD CIRCULATION and acknowledgedability of these popular Magazines,render long descriptions and elaborate pufi1ery unnecessary. They are known and read in> every corner of our country, and are as household' words in the mouths of those who pretend to judgTment in Literature or taste in Art. The pens oiE our most accomplished writers, as well as the burinsof the ablest artists, are enlisted to enrich and

adorn their pages.and all that is now famous in6 letters or beautiful in engravings, in the world of

periodical literature, is owing to the iostering careand lavish expense of these two prominent Americanperiodicals.

Their imitators fail always in equaliingtbem, forwant of public support, and the poor dupes whoare led to subscribe to the hastily-born enterprises

' which spring up every year to delude the public,with promises of wind and words of sound, findthat these well-established works are, as yet, the onlyreliable sources to which they can look for a faithfulperformance of all contracts entered into withsubscribers.The publishers of Godey and of Graham have

determined that for 1853 they will surpass in thecheapness, eleerance and merit of their Deriodicais.all that baa ever been attempted, and aa the worksare dissimilar, have resolved to place both withinthe reach of ail, who desire to keep thoroughlyposted up in the rapidly-improving periodical literatureof the age.The best and freshest, both in Literature and

Art, will be found in their ample and greatly multiplied pages, and they challenge the world to excelor equal the forthcoming volumes, either in thebeauty and cost of theiradornments, the merit andamplitude of literary matter, or in the cheapnessand accomodating terms with which they are pre»sented to the American public.
