DE BOW'S COMMERCIAL REVIEW ; A MONTHLY JOURNAL OF TRADE, AGRICULTURE, COMMERCE, COMMERCIAL POLITY, MANUFACTURES, INTERNAL IM PROVEMENTS, &c. Published Monthly, in the City of New Orleans. Terms $5 per Annum, in advance. Advocating the interests of the South and West, the COMMERCIAL REVIEW will not be the less mindful of the great interests of TRADE, COMMERCE AND AGRICULTURE throughout the World-Commerce in its various and multiform relations in its History, its Laws, and its Statistics; Commercial commoditie®; regulations of Trade, inter-State and inter-National; Treaties; Foreign and Domestic Tariffs, Excises and Posts; Marine relations; Enterprises of Commerce, in SHIPPING, CANALS, RAILROADS and STEAM NAVIGATION, etc.; Mercantile Systems, Codes, Laws and Decisions, ancient as well as modern, Banking Insurance, Exchange, Partnership, Factorage, Guaranty, Brokerage, Bankruptcy, Wreck, Salvage Freights, Privateering, Marque and Reprisal, Piracy, Quarantine and Custom House Regulations, etc., etc.; COMMERCIAL LITERATURE AND BIOGRAPHY, PROSPECTUS TO THE THIRD AND FOURTH VOLUMES. THIS work has been regularly published nearly two years. Its success has been signal throughout the whole SOUTHERN AND WESTERN COUNTRY, and its subscription list steadily and rapidly increased there and in other sections of the Union. In this brief period it has gained a larger circulation than any other Southern work, and the strongest influence. Complimentary letters and notices have been received from every source, even the very highest, as could be shown did space permit. The COMMERCIAL REVIEW has advocated and upheld the Commerce and Agriculture of the Southern and Western States, and exhibited from time to time their complete STATISTICS, in such a manner as could not but have secured the best results. The papers which have appeared upon SUGAR and upon COTTON, upon TOBACCO and RICE, and MANU FACTURES, upon THE PROGRESS OF OUR COMMERCIAL RELATIONS with all nations, and upon MEXICO, may be stated as examples. Indeed, this has been admitted from many sources. Although devoted in its aims to the development and exhi bition of the Resources of the South and West, the Commercial Review neglects no view of American and European Industry and Enterprise, in every department, and must be of equal value to American Citizens wherever they are found. Is there a section of the union, too, or an interest which has no concern with the progress and resources of the GREAT WEST, of which the Commercial Review is the faithful exponent? Bound Volumes of Commercial Review for 1846. We are happy to announce that a reprint of these in two handsome Volumes will be issued about the 1st of November from the press. The style of execution and finish is most superior. As the numbers for 1846 have great value and were much sought, and as we have not been able to furnish them for many months back to our orders, this re-publication must pass through a very large edition. We have not, however, ventured to print many at first, but only to supply our orders, &c. Those persons who would complete their sets, had better do so at once; and all of our subscribers, new as well as the old, will be furnished the Volumes for 1846, bound in very superior style, for the subscription price remitted us, without any extra charge for binding. We are ready to supply from the beginning, and offer these accommodations that all may have the work complete. This arrangement to extend to no other Volume. Editors of Newspapers not Receiving the Review, Who will remit us two dollars, and acknowledge, occasionally, the Numbers of the work, and the Circular we send them now, will receive it for one year. We should be happy to furnish the press, who have been so liberal to us in the past, without charge, but the expenses are too great; we, however, make what may be considered a liberal offer. A PREMIUM. We will present any one who will send us two new subscribers and the money, without postage or discount, the Review for 1846, in one complete Volume, bound.
