ON and after the 1st January, 1S51, an important change will be made in the Price, Contents, and Conduct of THE LITERARY GAZETTE. In accordance with the general demand for a sound critical review of New Publications, at a price that comes within the reach of all well-informed classes, this old-established Journal will in future be devoted exclusively to LITERATURE, and sold at THREEPENCE. It will not be reduced in size, but will continue a sheet of sixteen, and, when rendered necessary by advertisements, of twenty-four quarto pages. In 1817, when THE LITERARY GAZETTE was established, it embraced the whole circle of Literature, Science, and Art, including Music and the Drama, and was sold at a Shilling. As readers and competition increased, the price was leduced to Ninepence, then to Fourpence. The spread of education and the desire of being informed of what is going on in the world of letters has so increased among those who were never contemplated as readers of a literary periodica!, that the prpsent alteration has been determined upon under a conviction that the additional num- ber of readers will more than compensate for the difference in price. The same reasons which have led to a reduction in the price of THE LITERARY GAZETTE, have induced an alteration of its Contents. Literature, Science, Fine Arts, Music, and the Drama, can no longer be treated effi- ciently within the compass of a weekly Journal. Science and Art have each their separate Journals; and Music and the Drama are fully reported in the Newspapers. Instead of treating superficially of all these departments, the Conductors of THE LITERARY GAZETTE have resolved to devote their energies to one and the most comprehensive —LITERATURE; and that the public may be early informed of the character and contents of New Publications, it is intended to give brief notices OF ALL WORKS as they come out, returning to such of them for review as may seem eligible for the purpose. All New English Books of interest, and occasionally Foreign Works, will be entrusted for review to the first writers of the day, and no department of Literature will be unrepresented. Books of Philosphy, Classics, History, Biography, Archaeology, Travels, Poetry, Plays, Works of Fiction, &c., will be reviewed by the highest authorities on the respective subjects; and the progresss of Natural and Physical Science will be ably shown in the reviews of scientific Books and Memoirs. THE LITERARY GAZETTE will be published every SATURDAY MORNING at 5 A.M., in time for despatch by the Morning Mails, and re-issued in Monthly Parts. Subscribers remitting in advance (half-yearly, 8s. 8d.; or yearly, 17s. 4d.), may have their copies forwarded to their address in any part of the United Kingdom by post. THE LITERARY GAZETTE may be procured at THREEPENCE of all the Booksellers and Newsvendors in London, and of the principal Booksellers throughout the Country. Orders and Advertisements received by Messrs. REEVE and BENHAM, 5, Henrietta-street, Covent Garden, where, after the 1st January, 1851, THE LITERARY GAZETTE will be published.
