THE ATLAS: a GENERAL NEWSPAPER and
JOURNAL OF LITERATURE.
The Atlas combines three great features peculiar to itself ;—it
forms a complete Weekly Newspaper, an Original Newspaper of
the Seventh Day, and an ample Journal of literature.
Printed and published by James Whiting, Beaufort Buildings,
Strand.

last week disappointed in net receiving the paper on Sunday morn.
ing. The truth is, that the demand so far exceeded what had been
calculated upon, that a number of the newsvenders were unable
to obtain a sufficient supply in time to meet the orders of their
customers. Weatly seven thousand copies of the Atlas were
printed and published—by far the greatest number, it is presumed,
for a first day's publication, that ever issued from the Newspaper
pies* of this cciuntry. It gratifies the proprietors to be enabled to
give this assurance to their advertising friends, that the channel
they have chosen is one of most extensive publicity ; and that,
though a great number of advertisements were unavoidably post-
poned (as the lumber presented would have filled three times
what the proposed space for advertisements would admit), such is
the prospect of increasing circulation, that those inserted in future
numbers of the Atlas win appear to as much advantage as they
would have appeared in the first.
Of the imperfections inseparable from a first publication, the
Proprietors need say nothing, as a friendly allowance is always
made on that account. They shall relax no efforts to render the
ATLAS as perfect as possible in each of its departments ; and they ex-
pect that it shall be to conducted, and so published, that all further
apologies will be unnecessary.
