This publication, which will be issued weekly, is established to ad-
vocate the political rights of the masses in the most liberal sense of
the term, and to inculcate that sound political knowledge which will
teach the proper use and worthy exercise of those rights when once
they shall lasv,,, been obtained. For this purpose Mr. Reynolds has
ensured the assistance of first-rate Went in the several departments
of the Instructor ; and he trusts that his own sentiments ut.on the
leading topics of the day are too well known to render it necessary to
make arty specific pledges or enter into elaborate details concerning
the spi it in which the publication is to be conducted. He may, how-
ever, observe, that amongst the numerous features of value and in-
t _rest characterizing the Instructor, the following are the principal :
1. A History of England, popularly written.
2. Biographical Sketches of Eminent Living Liberals. With Por-
traits.

3. Articles upon the various Trades and Branches of Industry.
4. Aristocratic Genealogies, Rapacity, Plunder, Pensions, and
Crimes.

5. Sketches of Ecclesiastical Abuses.
6. Papers on Hope Colonization, Freehold Land Societies, and
Emigration

7. Articles on Mechanics' Institutions, Benefit Societies, &c.
8. Exposures of the Scandalous Abuses and Inequalities of the
Laws.

9. Essays upon the Condition of the Working Classes.
In addition to these features, the Instructor will contain copious
Reviews or Books, calculated to amuse and instruct the people gene-
rally ; and a vast amount of miscellaneous information upon the sub-
jects within the scope of the periodical.
