THE PEOPLE’S MAGAZINE
THIS work is published twice a month, & is furnished to subscribers at $1 a year. It contains a large mass of information, and is designed as an amusing and instructive miscellany for families. Each number is illustrated by a number of beautiful engravings on wood, illustrative of some object of interest, some incident in history, or some scene described in the work. The publishers have the satisfaction to state that the number of subscribers is now about 15,000; and while about 200 journals in the United States have expressed their approbation of it, we know of no instance in which an unfavorable opinion has been expressed.
We state these circumstances, in the hope of extending the interest in a work, which is calculated to be of extensive utility. It is among the cheapest periodicals of the United States.
The price of this Magazine is one dollar a year—six copies for $5—20 copies for fifteen dollars—or twenty-five quarterly parts for five dollars. Payment in all cases to be made in advance.

About this Item
The People's Magazine was a family-oriented bi-weekly magazine that featured stories of distant, exotic, and interesting places, animals, and people. It was especially prized for its engravings. It began publication in 1833. Unlike many of the periodicals that advertised in The Unionist, it took no political or philosophic positions, even implicitly, on slavery.
