THE COLUMBIAN LADY'S AND
GENTLEMAN2 MAGAZINE.
On the LIST Of January, 1874, will be publishe
a., fr,, number Of the COLUMBIAN LADY'S
AND , i.NTLEA, MAGAZINE, edited
NV Ioux l>uAx, and filled with contributions
from the most e,,l nent and accomplished writers
of the country. ,.,
The lnotivcs which have led to TIC commence
nent Of this undertaking may be br""f 'tl'c.'
1t is believed By the proprietor TIT llci % ;"
the United States an immense provision Oh il'eIa-
ry ability for which as yet there is no 40, .l"ale
encouragement or field Of display; that bcso.'
the numbers of clever and successful writers
whose productions are weekly, and monthly, and
annually read with delight by thousands, there
are yet greater Numbers constantly arriving AT
maturity of power who have only TO appear on
the stare of publication to receive brilliant a.
ward Of fame, and that the powers OF those
whose names are already pronounced Sith res
pec by lips of wisCst Censurc are capable OF more
and still higher eXertions than has yet been cal
led forth 1t is believed too, that the demand
for literary production in this country, especially
in the periodical channel, exceeds the supply IN
very large proportion, and that new supplies
in the right way to Gnsare hearty welcome and
profitable reception. No doubt is entertained
of the American minds ability TO sustain itself,
certainly on its own ground ii not abroad against
all the competition that the intellect OF other
lands can bring to the encounter; and inll as
surance is felt that among the millions OF Amer
lean readers there can be and is cordial well
come for all that American writers can produce
Of excellent and interesting From these pre-
misses it is undoubtingly inferred that there 10
abundant room for another Magazine, notwlt-
standing the merit and success of those already
in being; that there can be no lack of ability to
fill its pages acceptably within the reach OF capt.
tai and liberal enterprise; and TINT such PERI
odical will not fail to be greeted as a welcome
vister by thousands upon thousands whe as yet
have done little or nothing toward the support
and development of American periodical licra-
ture.
Another and strong motive has been the feel
ing that New York. the first city of the Unien,
should be tho home of periodical owdmg no
superior in neither merit nor success-InE
CoLUMeiAN MAGAZINE will be published on the
first day of every month. Its mechanical ar
engagements Will comprise the best paper, type
and workmanship that money can procure.
Its contributors will be sought for among the
ablest and most popular writers i'll the country,
and no efforts will be spared to secure the aid OF
those most DISTINGUISHED. such as
