Nearly four years ago the Minnesota WssAy
Times came before the public, and from that
period to the present it has been battling for
the cause of freedom and the rights of man..
regardless of the ties of party or the sneers and
jibes of partizan leaders. By pursuing con-.
sistent and strai ghtforward career, by persist
cnt devotion to principles, it has won its way
to public favor, and notwithstanding it is the
Youngest of the city press, it has attained a.
very large and rapidly increasing circulation
This has been accomplished, not by a system
of self-laudation, but by the spontaneous pat
ronage of its friends throughout Minnesota and.
the Eastern States.
The Times has ever advocated, and will con-!
tinue to advocate the cause OF the people, and.
in doing so it has advocated the cause of the
great Republican party whose principles it has
warmly espoused and will defend to the best
of its ability. 1t never has and never will pam
der to the vices of the vicious and never fiinch.

NEW MAGAZINE.
DEVOTED TO
Literature, Art and Politics,
IT'S AIM WILL BE

FIRST In Literature, to leave no province
unrepresented, SO that while each number wifi
contain articles of an abstract and permanent
value. it will also be found that the healthy
appetite of the mind for entertainment. in til
various forms of Narrative Wit, and Humor;
will not go uncared for, The publishers wish
to say, also, that while native writers viii re-,
celve the most; solid encouragement, and will
be mainly relied on TO fill the pages of the
ATLANTIC, they viii not hesitate to draw from
the foreign sources at their command, as osca1
sion may require, relying rather on the CONF
potency of an author to treat a particular SUBJ
ject, than on any other claim whatever. IR
this way they hope to make their Periodicals
welcome wherever the English tongue is spor
ken or read, sd
SECOND: In the term ART they intend to
include the whole domain of aesthetics, and.
hope gradually to make this critical department
a true and fearless representative of Art, in ali
its various branches without any regasd sc'
prejudice whether personal or national, or to-
private considerations of what kind soever.
THIRD: In Politics, the ATLANTIC viii be
the organ of no party or CLIQUE, but will honz
estly cndeavor to be the exponent Of what it,
conductors believe to be the American idea,
1t will deal frankly with persons ahd'
with parties, endeavoring always to kesP'
in view that moral element which tram
sends all persons and parties, and which alone
makes the basis of true and lasting national
prosperity. 1t will not rank itself with any
sect of antics but with that body of men which
is in favor of Freedom, National Progress, and
Honor, whether public or private.
AS an earnest of the material at their CONE
mand, they subjoin the following list of literary
persons interested in their enterprise wishihg
it, however, to be distinctly understood, that
they shall hope for support from every kind Of
ability which desires the avenue Of their col.
umns, and in the remuneration of which they
shall be guided purely by their sense Of intrin-
sic merit - n. 100

suming the character of "Jerusalemite, !"
begging funds for the destitute children of
Israel at Jerusalem. That in this way
he had accumulated considerable money
thata brother of his second wife had pur-
sed him-foun him in Germany, and got
a Jewish "writ of enforcement " from
him--returned with it to Jerusalem and
found it defective-followed him second
time and found him in London, where he
got another writing that was in due form.
Then all trace of him disappeared, until
some two years ago, she learned that he
had deposited some money with banker
in Hanover, with orders to forward it
whittier he should direct it by letter. The
banker finally got letter, directing him
to send the money to banker named Is
rael, in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Hither
she followed. and there was informed that
the money had been sent to Seltzar, in
care of DR., Ashkenazi, at Ottawa, Hi
nois. So she came to Ottawa, and here,
by accident, met DR.. A. in the street,
whom she at once recognized as her truant
lord. The doctor made feeble effort to
deny his identity, but soon caved, and
showed disposition to come to terms.
Her demands were reasonable enough.
All she asked was enforcement and
81 500 in money to enable her to return
to her parents The first the doctor was
willing enough to accede to, but being a
great miser, utterly scouts the latter part
of the proposition to evade which he tried
earnestly to persuade her to live with him
again. This she peremptorily declines,
but commences proceeding in our circuit
court for divorce and allimony, and for
for fear her "rabbi" may take leave of her
again, she has him locked up on a writ of
ne ereat.
The doctor is known to have some eight
or ten thousand dollars in gold in his pos.
session, and could easily discharge the
lady's moderate demand, but is so miserly
that he may linger long while in Jail
before he will do it. The lady is not un-
handsome, apparently very intelligent,an
evidently brimful of grit Onasca Free
