The Monthly historical register was issued at the end of numbers 2, 3, 7, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19, 26, 27, and 36. In most cases there is a section title page; in some numbers there is not. The Monthly historical register has its own pagination. This was intended to be removed and bound separately from the United States magazine and democratic review. Thus, vols. 1-3, 5-8 contain the political and literary portions; v. 4 the historical register department, of the numbers published from Oct. 1837 to Dec. 1840.

The United States monthly advertiser was issued as an advertising sheet of the United States magazine and Democratic review. It was printed on yellow paper and has its own pagination.

At least four numbered editions of volumes 1-3 were issued, as well as a stereoetype edition.
