The frs. volume of the Journal and Re-.
view IL now completed. For mnny reasons
we feel greatly strengthened for The COM
mencement Of the second. We are satisfied
from the reception of the work thus far, that
its merits are appreciated, and that the poo.
pie Of the south and west are fully aware Of
the great benefit and credit that would accrue
to our magnificent country from aIiterary pe.
riodical Of Substantial and elevated Character.
/ We OF first projected such awcfk and be-.
lieve the press both east aad west approve the
Judgment with which it is conducted. While
one has pronounced it second only to the,
Southern Literary Messenger, afforded at @5,.
another has declared it inferior to none in the
Union. While one has given it. On equal
rank with that sterling $5 work, the Knick>.
erbocker,another has placed it infinitely above
those splendid magazines which command the
most popular favor. II such be- the reputa-
toin Of the Journal in its infancy, we think
much more can be expected from it's nlanA.
hood. @ What western man would not rejoice
to see periodical breathing the spirit and
resting the power Of the western mind2 Who
does not acknowledge the great benefit re.
sulting from literary Journal that invites the
activity Of the nobler part of man, makes
knows the sentiment and spirit Of those in.
our midstw think and desire the greatest
good to man? Through its pages, those in
every section Of our great West, whose phi
iosophy and philanthropy would otherwise
be unknown and unfeIt, could speak to the
reason and hearts Of their friends and neigh
bors. and thus do much 10 elevate and emo
bic. But 1t isscarcely necessary to refer TO
these matters--every one knows al We wish
to convey, and we are confident viii act for.
the best interests Of himself and fellows. y
