BEING THE EIGHTY-THIRD YEAR OF THE INDEPEND ENCE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. CONTAINING, IN ADDITION TO THE CALENDAR, A RECORD OF TH. ENDING DECEMBER 18T, 1857, A COMPLETE DIARY FOR GENERALLY. NEW YORK: MASON BROTHERS. In accordance with our announcement last year, we now present the second annual issue of the NEW-YORK ALMANAC AND YEARLY RECORD. Gratified by the success of last year, which was more than we had anticipated for an initial number, we present ourselves once again before our patrons, reiterating that it is our intention to continue from year to year, publishing in each December, a volume for the year ensuing. Again we refer to our index as showing the utility of our publication; small and convenient as it is in size, and low as it is in its price, it will be found to contain a vast amount and variety of matter which must be of great use and interest to every body. While the valuable "Weather Tables" are continued, we have added Chronological Tables in the various departments, so complete as to form a full history of the year just expiring. We have not space to enumerate our new features, but desire to call attention, amongst others, to the new "Charter of the City of New-York," and the full description of the proposed "Central Park," as matters of peculiar interest. At once an Almanac and a Diary; a complete record of the Temperature of every day of the year; a complete manual of the Weather, with a world of useful information beside-convenient for the pocket, and drawing so trifling a sum therefrom who will not have a copy?
