ID sphere and the utility Of the EcLEcrIc MAGA-
ZINE have become too well defined to require ex-
PLANTATION. Differing in aim from other magazines
and supplying want which is widely and increas-
ingly felt by more educated and intelligent por
ton of the community, it fills place which could
be filled in no other method than by the principle
of selection which it adopts. The great reviews
and magazines of Great Britain and the Continent
through which the leading minds of the age are
accustomed, almost exclusively to express them
selves, are too numerous TO be reprinted, as well
as too costly to be imported by the general reader
They contain, likewise, much with their desirable
articles, that has but temporary local interest
and which is worth 10 the American reader neither
the price nor time required to peruse it, To select
from the whole field of Journalism all that is really
valuable, both the graver dissertations and discus
sions of the reviews, and the lighter and more
versatile contents of the magazines is the pur-
pose Of the ECLECTIC. The best parts of all are
thus secured without the cost or incumbrance Of
the local or feeble parts of any The main portion
of the Eclectic will continue 10 be composed of
the great and eloquent articles of the reviews;
while everything valuable or brilliant in all other

will be carefully presented. A richer and more
valuable aggregate will thus be furnished than the
contents of any single periodical could afford
Embellishments of the highest order of subject
and engraving will occupy each number. Among
these will be richly engraved portraits of the most

traordinary favor which has thus far attended
their efforts to interest and instruct the great body

to increase still further the claims of their maya
zine upon public favor and support. 1t will con-
tinue to present, at the cheapest price, the most
interesting and instructive literary matter original
and selected domestic and foreign, in the most
elegant and convenient style, and accompaniedby

penditurc or money can command. They appeal
