Il
Nothing gains admission into the pages Of
this Magazine, which is not excellent liz l'se!f
The source from which an article comes Is Sc
cumdaTy---i,s merits always primary. Such Il
rule, strictly carried out, must Give character t.
any work. 1t has given "ETUun's Mh@hLNE"
Il character already acknowledged in AL rgspec-
table quarters where it has been received.
m,ng the INGNuArsTAGLE s2UFcu8 that
"pan up TO the hands of literary caterer, Cen
NAN AND FREEcU LITERATURE offer a wide field
for selection. Into this region, with All adrnira-
lilo Corps Of Tfanslators, we are steadily pcmg-
'rating, ugtonIshcd at every ssep by the riches
we meet. Especially is this the case in Ger
man Lite nature. lloady we have given some
Splendid Articles from the German, brim full o!
pUo truths, md lorciblc illustrations of the pow
or of goodness "Slicnt Love ''I'hG Govern
or and his succcss5rn '''Fhc Unknown Patient"
"Ffc Russian Priuce, - ''Teo Pivy Council
lvr," &c. SC. all who have read will remember
with delight.
From tho French VIC have also given many
frst-rate articles. "1ho pcrplcyed Lovers"
from Madame de CENTS, also, the s'Icsson OF
Misfortunc,,' and "Thc Error OF a good Father, :"
from Marmontcl, with fine tales from BWmrs,
jaarojr, .Nodict, Bal;ac, and other authors Of ce
ichrity.
In selecting from the French our Tronslators
are guided by a strict regard to Purity and tx
ccencc.
None know better thar they do, how much
that il obi ,ctionabU abounds in tho light ltCra-
,urc Of this people. But, flowing along by the
side Of this impure current, Is another, as lucid
and lear as crystal lrorl this they Dip up the
bright waters and present them to our lips.
Al this fountain we shall continue 10 let our
readers drink. But in doing so we shall nCtio-
elect the CxCrIlunrics OF our own ltlaratnfc.
This would ho the worst Of folly. Yet in dong
tbs. we shah make no parrdc Of names. The
public ,urc GETTING TO understand pretty clearly
now much ,his is worth. and TO discover that cX-
,tilrnco is not always to be ionnd in the Iugi-
ll,c productions ofwritcrs who have done well
~ books. Our country Is tccminT with yuaH"
genius, too often ovGrshaloWcd and h.cdcn by
the successful, who possess not half their i:'G.n
ric worth, and whose writings exert not half so
healthy an iuflacnce. They are crowded from
lie palh III which they are fitted TO walk, and
thrii merits kept GU. q! sight By few who lave
gained the public car and eye and w!;o are kept
before the public, not so murl, on account Oft Tie
superior excellence o! What they are giving io Ill.,
AZ On account Q what they have done.
To merit ,vhcgeypr we find It, VIC will give
,he yyht hand Of fellowship. We wonld not
accept poor article iIom tho most celebrated
writer int Tic country; bot { good enc let il come
from where it will shall t;i.dn welcome,
In all sources, At i.ome and ubIoad, We shall
seek tic Good, tio true and the beautiful. For
