OFFICE No. 9, WESTKING St LANCASTER. PA. FOR 1858. 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, 1858, the Guardian will commence a NEW 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 accusto...ed 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 Heayen surer. The evidence that it has in a degree done this, which the experience of years has furnished, is more precious to us than gain or gold. Cheerfully, hopefully, and believingly 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. Pastors who receive this Prospectus are requested to hand it to some active member of the church, who will procure subscribers for The Guardian.

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.
