THE lARGEST NEWSPAPER EVER PRINTED.
On Sunday, the 21st of May, will be published, No. I. of
THE ATLAS; a GENERAL 'NEWSPAPER and
JOURNAL of LITERATURE ,• printed on a stamped
Sheet, nearly double the size of " The Times," folded Into Six-
teen Pages.
Aware of the public curiosity which will follow the announce..
went of this Journal, the Proprietors feel anxious to render its con--
tents worthy of its capacity and external promise ; so as to satisfy,
by its intrinsic merit, the expectations which, as a remarkable pro-
duct of science applied to printing and paper-making, it is calcu-
lated to excite.
The Proprietors of the ATLAS are, by the novelty of their plan,
relieved from the invidious necessity of undertaking to perform in a
better manner what is already done by others. But they propose,
by towns of a double space, along with a carefial and pams-taking
system of selection and abridgment, to afford a greater variety than
an be found in any single newspaper; their object being to con.
crenate in one sheet the various matters of fact and speculation
which are at present scattered through many, and which no news.
paper of the common sire can contain.
The ATLAS will combine three great features peculiar to itself:
--it will form a complete Weekly Newspaper, an Original News-
paper of the Seventh Day, and an ample Journal of Literature,
both English and Foreign.
The ATLAS will have no polities of its own ; but it will have a
department more interesting to the politician than any which the
Proprietors could hope to imply with original writing. A selec-
tion will be made of tbe best articles that appear during the week on
each side of every public question. A great variety of sources will
be resorted to—Reviews and Magazines as well as Newspapers ;
and, among the latter, the Provincial se well as the London. By
this plan, which is new to the English newspaper press, the far
greater portion of the selected articles will have for each reader the
Talus of originality ; while both instruction and amusement will be
derived from the appearance, side by side, of the opposing argu-
ments of the ablest political writers of all parties.
In the Literary Department, copious extracts sill be given from
such new books as admit of interesting quotation : others will be
analysed. The Proprietors aredetermined that this important de-
partment shall be wholly independent of interested influence ; and
they pledge themselves that no person connected with the publish-
ing of books shall have the slightest concern in, or control over, the
Literature of their Journal.
Frospeetuses may be had, and Orders and Advertisements will
be received, at the Office of Messrs. Whiting and Branston,
Printers and Engravers to the King for the Prevention of Forgery,
Beaufort-house, Beaufort-buildings, Strand.
