i Of the people Of tie United States Though its
plan does not entirely exclude articles Of the most
lmdorant character, such as have raised Black

influence and reputation, its pages are principally
devoted 10 what's usualey termed ght literature.

be safely asserted. that Graham Jl0gGsiae has
regularly engaged better corps of writers lhan

it has been the pioneer in magazine literature and
that the contributors Of skGRAHAM" have, by their
able contributors, given Higher National Charac-
