PROSPECTUS FOR 1857.

VOLUME VIII.

THE GUARDIAN:

A MONTHLY MAGAZINE, DEVOTED TO THE SOCIAL, LITERARY AND RELIGIOUS INTERESTS OF YOUNG MEN AND LADIES.

EDITED BY REV. H. HARBAUGH.

On the First of January, 1857, the Guardian will commence its EIGHTH VOLUME It is not weary in laboring for the young, to whom it is dedicated and devoted, and from whose kind hands it has received abiding favor and encouragement.

The Guardian will keep on its accustomed course. It will be, as heretofore, devoted to the highest interests of the young, at the most solemn and interesting period of their life. It will offer its friendly councils to them in an earnest though free and cheerful way. It will solemnly seek to warn them against the wrong, and affectionately allure them to the right. The Editor will endeavor to make its contents true, pure, fresh, and healthy as the morning of life. It will particularly urge self-culture and early piety as of the highest importance. It will seek to move in the element of its motto: "Life-Light-Love."

The Guardian has no denominational or party bias. It interferes not with controversies either in Church or State. It is its ambition to take the quiet way of peace and love. It would turn the attention of its readers to that first and greatest of duties, the cultivation of the heart, mind, social feelings, and pious affections. It will have its reward if it can be the means of making Hearts better, Homes happier, aud Heaven surer. The evidence that it has in a degree done this, which the experience of seven years has furnished, is more precious to us than gain or gold. Cheerfully, hopefully, and beiievingly we look into the future as we take our pilgrim-staff in hand to travel another year.

The Guardian contains thirty-two pages monthly, making a handsome volume of three hundred and eighty-four pages at the end of the year.

Now is the Time to Subscribe.

The Publishers respectfully make the following requests:

1. Pastors who receive this Prospectus are requested to hand it to some active member of the church, who will procure subscribers for The Guardian. If ten subscribers are obtained, we will send one copy to the person obtaining them and one to the pastor, gratis.

The Editor and Publishers are determined to do everything in their power, still farther to deserve the encouragement of the Christian public, and to make The Guardian acceptable and profitable to its readers.

The Guardian will be printed with new and clear type, and on heavy white paper, superior to that of Vol. `7.

The January number will be embellished with a splendid steel engraving. TERMS-ONLY ONE DOLLAR A YEAR-IN ADVANCE. Any one who sends us five subscribers with $5 cash, will receive one copy for one year, gratis. Thirteen copies will be sent for $10; twenty-seven copies for $20.
