•• Mr. Knight passed three years in Turkey. In

writer suid that, by the aid of this Vocabulary, he 
had got on famously with the Tuiks— had suc- 
ceeded in making himself understood, and in 
getting all his wants supplied, which may be con- 
sidered the best compliment that could be paid to 
the work.”- Britannia, September 16, 1854.

Balaclava; and at meal-times, when we occa- 
sionally mingle with them, we can get along with

ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS. 
T IIE YEAR 1855 bids fair to be one of 
the most important and eventful of modern 
history On the 6th ol JANUARY', 1855, will be 
issued the FIRST NUMBER of a New Y'olume 
of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, and 
not only of a New Volume, but of a New Y ear- 
each volume being perfect nnd complete in itself 
—containing, tor the time, a faithful record, picto- 
rial and descriptive, of all events of interest in 
every part of the world. To that limited portion 
of the public who do not subscribe to this Journal, 
it may be stated that no period could be selected 
more opportune for commencing ; the whole ex- 
pense being but Twenty-six Shillings per annum, 
exclusive of Double Numbers, which are issued on 
rare occasions, when it would be impossible to 
crowd the important events and Engravings into 
a single Number; for this small sum the Sub- 
scriber will receive Twenty-four large Pages - 
Seventy-two Columns— of the most interesting in- 
formation, carefully selected from the News of tho 
YY'eek, interspersed with u variety of charming 
Articles on the chief topics of the day. 
The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS has, 
by its impartial nnd consistent advocacy of the 
welfare of the public, secured for itself a political 
influence scarcely second to any Newspaper in riio 
Empire ; and ref rence can, with some pride, he 
made to the support afforded to all beneficial mea- 
sures proposed and adopted by the English 
Parliament. 
Foreign Politics will ever command the attention 
which ought to be devoted to so important n feature 
of a Newspaper. On the question of the Russian 
YY’ar, during the year 1854, ONE THOUSAND 
ENGRAVINGSappeared in the ILLUSTRATED 
LONDON NEWS. Extensive arrangements, cal- 
culated to improve this popular Journal, and 
engagements, such ns will greatly enrich its Lite- 
rary, Scientific, and other departments, have been 
made, and will thus combUIe on this Paper the 
greatest talent of the dny. 
The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEYVS has 
been established thirteen years, during winch 
period it has received n greater degree of encou- 
ragement and approbation than any Journal ever 
published. This is proved by the returns of Stamps 
issued from time to time by order of Parliament. 
The Stamps applied for the first six months ot 
1854 was upwards of 2,734.000, showing a YV EEK E » 
CIRCULATION ot UPYVARDS of ONE HUN-
