To all lovers of field aports the American Magazine ought to be entertaining and instructive, and, as the Editor flatters himself, useful to the rising generation, in drawing them off from gaiming and other vicious amusements; but to all breeders or amateurs of the horse, it trould seem to be indespensable from the circumstance, that they must refer to it for the likeness, history and performances of the most cel. ebrated, and the pedigrees ofall thorough bred horses; as well as for the instructions on breeding, breaking to the saddle and harness, management in sickness and in health, feeding, training, shoeing, The Editor is without inclination or necessity to say any thing as to the character or execution of his undertaking: suffice it to state, that few impressions of the second edition remain unsold, and that not one copy be disposed of but upon strict compliance with the terms of the publication, which are, FIVE DOLLARS PER ANNUM, payable in advance every year.

WILLIAM FORD. April 28, 1831. 33-3m. BICKNELL'S REPORTER. Counterfeit Detector, and Price Current.

The publisher of this journal having been solicited by a large number of his patrons to issue the "Reporter" weekly, has, in consequence, made such arrangements as will enable him to comply with their wishes after the 31st of July next, on which date the first year of this publication will be completed. We feel gratefut to the public for the liberal patronage awarded us, (having now a more extensive circulation than any other newspaper in the United States,) and shall leave no measure unresorted to, in order to render this journal valuable in pects, not only to merchants, banking institu-1 tons, brokers, and keepers of hotels, but the community in general. We have engaged literary assistance of several gentlemen well known as writers, and have correspondents in all the principal cities and towns in the United States. We also receive weekly more than five hundred newspapers from different parts of the Union, so that whatever information may be cir. culated through the medium of the "Reperter," and the resources from whence it we can confidently state, may, in all cases, be relied upon as correct, Bank notes are being counterfeited in every direction; and on the arrival of every vessel from Europe, or the tion of every national excitement, the state of the market varies.

Every person should, there. fore, be possessed of some certain guide by which all such information might be received by the earliest mails, and at such a rate as not to render its possession an exorbitant tax. Such a journal is exactly what we endeavour to render the "Reporter," inan effort to accomplish which, neither pains nor expense will at any time be spared on the part of the publisher. Every number will contain a carefully corrected Bank Note List of Broken Banks, Prices Current, Pri ces of Gold, Prices of Bank and Insurance Stock and a description of all Counterfeit and Altered Notes in circulation throughont the United States, and such information as likely to throw light upon the subjects embraced in the design of this journal. The latest foreign news, together with much original and well selected matter, will also be found in the colums of the "Reporter." ADVERTISEMENTS, not exceeding a square, inserted for one dollar, and for every other insertion twenty five cents--larger ones in proportion.

Notes on all solvent banks, of a less denomi. nation than five dollars, received at par in payment for subscriptions and advertisements. 07 The weekly publication will be enlarged and otherwise improved. It be issued atthe low price of $3 yer. annum: the semi monthly to remain at single copies, cents.

Within a few years, the proprietor has trav. the elled much. and had to depend somewhat upon assistance of others to conduct the not He pledges but himself, the that the cessation publication shall cease, with of his natural life, provided the public patronage, or the bor of his own hands, will furnish the means 0 issuing a single sheet per annum. -He further pledges himself, that the grest fundamental principles, hitherto advocated in this work, shall be steadily maintained. The course to be pursued, hereafter, will not materially vary from that which he marked out in the beginning.

The corrupt cources of the horrible evil of slav. ery shall be traced; this fatal gangrene upon the body politic shall be probed; and the healing balsam will be applied when the putrid mass is removed. Every possible investigation will be made as to the state of the slave-system, and what is doing relative to its perpetuation or abolition, particularly in the various parts of the United States and the West Indies. Every exertion will also he made to snow what can be done, with propriety and safety, towards eradicating this enormous and increasing evil from the American soil. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
