ITEM ANS AGAZINE, edited by JOHN IN
MAN. and filed tn contributions from the most
eminent and accomplished writer OF the country
The motives which have led to the commence
ment of this unde' taklug may be briefly tated
II is believed by the proprietor that there IS IN
tbe United States an immense provision of liter
ary abb ity for which yet there Is no adequate
encouragement or field of display; that besides
the numbers Of clever and successful writers
whose productions are weekly, and monthly, ana
annually read with delight by thousands, there
are vet greater numbers constantly arriving at
maturity of power who have only to appear OH
the sragc of publication to receive pri MANI
award of fame, and that the powers OF those
whose names are already pronounced with res
meet nv los of wlscst censure are capable of
| more and still higher euertions than has yet
| heeu called forth 1t is believed, too, that the
demand for literary production IN this country,
especially in the p ridical canueI, excetos the
supply in a very large proportion, ana mat new
supplies have only to be presented OF the rignt
| ounlit, and in ihe way to ensure nearly We.
come and profitable reception. No doubt Is
sntertqin,d o, the American minds ability to
sustain itself, certainly on its own ground II not
| ,hro,d ,en;nst all the competition that the
;nt.ueot 1c other lands can bring to the encoun-
tie, and full assurance is felt that among tht
mi lions of American readers there can De aie
ia n cordial welcome for all that Anne 'can VIII

d From these preises it is undoubtngiy lnIeffe
that there is ubunaant room for another maya
zine notwithstanding the merit and success
those already in bens that there can be u
h lack ability to fill its pages acceplapy "i'hi
the reach OF capital and liberal enterprise; an
that such periodical will not IAN to be gree't
as welcome yister by thousands upon ,ho'
sands who as yet have done little or ho'hil

W Another and strong motive has been the fec
he ing that Few York, the first city of the un1o
should be the home OF a periodlcai owning -,
sunerior in neither merit nor success.--lhe [
es lumbar Magazine will be published on the I'll
day of every mouth. Its mechanical arrang
re, ments will comprise the best paper, type al
orkmanship that money can procure.

the abest and most popular writers in the countr
