ADDRESS.
The close of the year, coinciding with the completion of the
Fourth Volume of the LONDON MAGAZINE, agreeably reminds us,
Mats few words of acknowledgment are due, first, to our nume-
rous Friends and the Public for their firm and increasing sup-
plant and next to our kind Contributors in general, whose exer-
tions have raised the Losmon MAGAZINE to its present dis-
thrashed rank in periodical literature, and have procured for it
10 large a share of public favour.
As, On the one hand, we are happy to say, that greater en-
couragement could not have been expected than we have expe-
neared ; so, on the other, we are proud to affirm, that a greater
archer of men of tairr.t than the LONDON MAt;AZINE now unites
hits support, were never before combined in furtherance of any
leder:king of a similar nature.
But gratitude for public patronage is best evinced by increased
endeavours to deserve it; and the most agreeable return we can
Matto our contributors for their individual exertions is to as-
lodate their labours with productions of kindred talent. As
evidence of our zeal in these endeavours, we present the follow-
ing sketch of a part of our resources for the ensuing volumes;
from whence it will appear, that the future Numbers of the
Lome %came will be enriched, not only by the continued
ert'niano of its present Correspondents, but by papers from new
Contributors on important and interesting subjects, the very na-
ture of which will he an earnest to the literary world that they
proceed from men of the highest intellectual ability.
