TLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, edited by JoHN lA-
NAN. and filed with contributions from the most
eminent and accomplished writers OF the country.
The motives which have led TO the commence
mcnt Of this under taking may be briefly stated 3.
1t is believed by the proprietor that there is IN
the United States an immense provision OF htef-
ary ability for which as yet tn, re is no adequate
encouragement or field OF display; that besides
the numbers OF clever and successful writer
wl, ose productions are weekly, and monthly, and
annually read with delight by Thousands, there
are vet greater numbers constantly arriving at
maturity of power who have only to appear on
the srace Of publication to receive pri iiiant
award of fame, and that the powers oil those
whose names are alteady pronounced with res
pect by Ii IS of wisest censure are capabie OF
more and still higher euertions than has yet
been called forth 1t is believed, too, that the
demand for literary production in this country
especally in the p.ridical canuel, exceeds the
supply in very large proportion, and that new
SUPPLIES have only to be presented OF the right
guilty and in the way to ensure a hearty vel
come and profitable reception. NO doubt Is
, cntertain,d of the American Hhnd's AFFINITY to
sustain ITSELF certainly on its own ground If no
abroad, against all the competition that tht
intellect OF other lands can bring to the encoune
10, and full assurance is felt that among the
mi Mono uf American readers there can be and
cordial welcome for all that Anc' lean wri

that such periodical will not fail to be greeted
