paper Advertising  Agents.    1872.    Large  8vo,  680  pages. 
A  handsomely  gotten  up  and  well  arranged  volume,  this  directory  will  prove 
of  particular  value  to  all  advertisers  and  others  seeking  information  about  the 
numerous  periodicals  published  on  this  continent,  the  list  of  which  appears  to 
be  pretty  complete  and  reliable,  although  we  miss  a  few,  among  them  the  "  Chi- 
cago Pharmacist/'  and  the  "  American  Journal  of  Science  and  Arts,"  pub- 
lished at  New  Haven. 
There  are  6432  periodicals  published  in  the  United  States,  87  in  the  Territo- 
ries, 374  in  the  Dominion  of  Canada,  and  29  in  the  other  British  North  Ameri- 
can Colonies.  The  largest  number  is  published  in  New  York  (951),  then  fol- 
lows Pennsylvania  (614),  Illinois  (518),  Ohio  (439),  Iowa  (308),  Missouri  (300), 
Massachusetts  (292),  Indiana  (290),  Michigan  (236),  Wisconsin  (208),  &c. 
The  list  of  periodicals  is  arranged  alphabetically,  by  states  and  towns,  and 
gives,  besides  the  names,  the  days  of  issue,  general  character,  form,  size,  sub- 
scription price,  date  of  establishment,  editors  and  publishers'  names,  circulation, 
&c.  This  is  followed  by  a  list  of  towns  and  cities  in  which  periodicals  are 
published,  giving  the  location,  population,  industry,  &c,  then  by  a  list  of  peri- 
odicals inserting  advertisements,  publishing  over  5000  copies ;  lists  of  papers 
devoted  to  religion,  agriculture,  medicine,  education,  amusement,  secret  socie- 
ties, commerce  and  finance,  insurance,  real  estate,  science  and  mechanics,  law, 
sporting,  music,  and  woman's  suffrage.  The  papers  published  wholly  or  in  part 
in  other  than  the  English  language  conclude  these  lists,  which  occupy  one-half 
of  the  volume,  while  the  other  half  contains  advertisements  and  the  index  in 
two  parts.

The  former  of  these  handsome  volumes,  which  contains  the  usual  reports  of 
articles  entered  for  competition,  on  premiums  awarded,  &c,  is  embellished  with 
a  plan  of  the  floor  room  of  the  last  fair,  a  view  of  the  building  in  which  the 
exposition  was  held,  a  facsimile  of  the  medals  awarded,  and  a  handsome  steel 
engraving  of  the  Davidson  Fountain  erected  at  Cincinnati  last  fall. 
The  contents  of  the  other  volume,  to  which  plans  of  the  space  are  added 
which  will  be  available  for  the  next  exposition,  is  expressed  in  the  title.  With 
a  commendable  enterprise,  the  exhibiting  space  has  been  increased  to  seven 
acres,  which  has  been  divided  into  16  grand  departments,  each  of  which  is  again 
subdivided. 
The  third  exposition  will  be  open  from  September  4th  to  October  5th.  Any 
information  desired  in  regard  to  it  may  be  obtained  on  application  to  W.  W. 
Taylor,  Secretary  of  the  Cincinnati  Industrial  Exposition.
