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

FIRST In Literature, to leave no prevtnee
unrepresented, so that while each number will
contain articles of an abstract and permanent
value, il will also be found that the healthy
appetite of the mind for entertainment in it's
various forms of Narrative, Wit, and Humorj
will not go uncared for, The publishers WISH
to say, also, that while native writers will reg
ceire the most solid encouragement, and viii
be mainly relied on to fill the pages OF tbs
ATLANTIC they will not hesitate to draw fcna
the foreign sources at their command, as oceaS
sion may require, relying rather on the cons
potency of an author to treat particular SUBJ
ject, than on any other claim whatever. In
this way they hope to make their Periodical
welcome wherever the English tongue is sPos
ken or read,
SECOND: In the term ART they intend to
include the whole domain of aesthetics, and
hope gradually to make this critical department
true and fearless representative of Art, in all
its various branches, without any regaed to
prejudice. whether personal OF national. or "
private considerations of what kind soever.
THIRD: In Politics, the ATLANTIC win bs
the organ of no party or clique, but will honi
estly endeavor to be the exponent OF what its
conductors believe to be the American idea.
1t will deal frankly with persons and
with parties, endeavoring always to keep
in view that moral element which tran
sends all persons and parties. and whicS .loass
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 st their corr.
mand, they suboin the following list of literary
persons interested in their enterprise wishing
it, however, to be distinctly understood, that
they shall hope for support from every kind Of
ability which desires the avenue of their eol-
umns, and in the remuneration Of which they
shall be guided purely by their sense Of istsin-
sic merit -
