SHELDON & COMPANY, 498 and 500 Broadway, New York NOV. 15, 1866. A NEW MAGAZINE. THE AMERICAN TRACT SOCIETY proposes to begin, with the approaching new year, the publication of an illustrated religious magazine, entitled "THE SABBATH AT HOME," to be issued monthly, pp. 64, 8vo. It is designed that this shall be strictly a religious magazine, and, as the name denotes, suitable for reading on the Sabbath. We know of none in this country which fills this important place. Of the many popular, and some of them truly valuable, periodicals now published, all are, either in part or altogether, secular in their contents, and not a few are wholly inconsistent with the sacred character of that day. If, therefore, a publication can be furnished which, while it shall afford rational entertainment, shall also win to the consideration of religious truth, and second the instructions of the pulpit and the Sabbath school, it is believed a valuable service will be rendered to the cause of Christ. It will be our endeavor to make the work one of popular interest. Religious narratives, history and biography, familiar lessons in Biblical science, the teachings of Nature, animate and inanimate, poetry, incident, and anecdote, will find a place in it, as well as the graver matters of practical religion. Special care will be taken in the Juvenile Department to please as well as to profit the young folks. The magazine will be profusely illustrated by the Society's well-known able artists, and will be printed on fine paper, with a handsome engraved cover in colors. Subscription price, two dollars per year in advance; two dollars and a half after six months; or three dollars at the expiration of the year. Orders should be addressed to N.
