At the close of the fifty-second volume, a series of almost unparalleled extent 
in the hands of ’one Editor and Proprietor, thanks are sincerely tendered for the 
liberal and unabated patronage with ivhich this Miscellany continues io be konoin ed. 
If a light-minded few have been seduced by the blandishments, the puffs, and. the 
meretricious pretensions of worthy and unworthy competitors •, the solid and consistent 
part of the nation have compared, and hare discriminated ; and we have year by 
year had to boast of accessions to the number of our correspondents and subsn ibei 
Our Fifty-third volume will be commenced on the first of February, and instead oj 
making promises, we appeal with confidence from the evidence of the past, to the futui c. 
To our obliging correspondents we have much apology to make for delay, but as ue 
always prefer the useful to the speculative, and matters of fact and practice io u ii c- 
drawn essays and fine-spun meditations, the latter unavoidably accumulate fo> 
months, and often for years. For the conveyance and deposit of heavy goods of thi* 
nature, there, however, exist other Literary Caravans and Receptacles in which 
we often see the refuse of our drawers displayed with whimsical ostentation ; am 
we repeat, for the hundredth time, that few communications are acceptable to this 
Miscellany besides those which have some useful end in view, which record some 
interesting fact, or, which in some manner u come home to men's business and bosoms. 
The Supplementary Humber will appear on the 31aX, filled , as usual, with the 
essence of the best books of the half year, with Indexes, Src.

of the empire—the extraordinary Journey through Africa, merits notice a pleasing
