The editor does not feel, that with his

superiority OF &" Graham over several SIM
liar publications, but thinks he may safely
confide in their friendship for the magazine,

out of an extended circulation in II country

shall not, however, hesitate to publish, from

will likewise be inserted, and criticisms on
