L encouraged by the generous and
steadily increasing patronage which has
hitherto rewarded their exertions, propose !
to issue, from the commencement of their |
Third Volume on the 26th of March en-
suing, new Double Quarto Edition of
their journal, not instead of but in addition |
to that now published Advertisements,
except possibly few of a strictly literary
character, viii be entirely excluded; and,
in addition to all the matter presented in
the folio New Yorker, the Quarto will
contain a page of popular Music, &c. &C.
and be accompanied by handsome Title
Page and comprehensive Index at the
close ofthe Volume
l. General Literoture-Original Tales, |
Essays, Reviews, Poems, &e- with cores
ponding Selections from the Quarterlies, |
Monthlies, and all the better class Of p
riodicals, Foreign and American, with
choice extracts from new works of SUBJ
stantial excellence The editor acknowl-
edges with pride and gratitude his obliga-
ton to his regular contributors-and
among them are some whose names have
shed lustre on the cause of American liter
ature-for the steadfast support hitherto
afforded him, and the confidence with
which he is now enabled to assurethe pub
lie that it will not soon be withdrawn
He takes pleasure in recalling the fact
that, since the establishment of the New
Yorker, no one other journal has afforded
specimens in equal extent and variety, of
the productions of all eminent American
writer's of whatever section or c1ass-a
characteristic which he hopes it may still
preserve; while bis selections from the
best foreign works have been exceeded
in quantity at least-by those of but three
or four among the myriad of cis-Atlantic
periodicals.
II. National poIitics.-It has been the
aim of the Editor to present full and fair
exhibit of the aspects, movements and
. struggles, of parties in our country in
, Guiding the meeting of Conventions, NOM
ination of candidates for State and Nation
al Offices, and all other significant mani
festations of political feeling, with the gen.
eral results of elections, as fast as ascer-
. tanned, and the official canvass in each in
l stance, as soon as it shall have reached
2 us. This course is believed to be in ma
ny respects original with this journal and
, It's considered that we have ust cause OF
felicitation in the fact that, pursued as it
has been through two years ofunremitted
: political warfare, the fairness and general
= accuracy Of our statements and returns
s have very rarely, if ever, been questioned
The Editor reserves to himself the right
fremarking, as circumstances may seem
to require and justice dictate, on the less
: exciting political topics of the day, as on
;. all others; with calmness, Difference and
moderation; but he will still strive-he
trusts not less successfully than hitherto
to exclude from the columns of the New
Yorker every observation, reflection, or
even argument, which may wantonly do
: violence to the sincere conviction of any
; well-informed reader, of whatever princi-
: pie or party
: III. General IntelIgence.-In this de-
l. partment we can only promise the most
: unwearied industry and patience in the col
e lection, condensation, and arran cement o.
u the news, Forei en- and Domestic, which
s. may be gathered from the weekly recep.
u ton of four hundred journals, including
g some choice European periodicals, and
l., which may be afforded us by the attention
u of our friends abroad among whom are
our stated correspondents at Paris anc
l. Mexico. Although the favors of these
last will generally wear literary rathe
than political aspect, we are yet justified
v in our confidence that no important intel
hgence which their position will enabl
I'd them to transmit us more succinctly o
" speedily than would otherwise reach II
&c will in any case be withheld
" Literary Notices, Statistics, Brief No
tees Of works of Art Amusements, tn
Drama, &c. &c. will from time to time b
given. AS general rule, however,
will be the aim of the Editor to embed
so such articles, whether original or selec
SO ed, as shall at least combine instructio
20 with amusement.
