NEW MAGAZINE /,
Literature, Art and Politics.
ITS AIM WILL BE

FIRST: In Literature, to leave no province
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 its
various forms of Narrative. Wit, and Humor,
will not go uncared for, The publishers wish
to say, also, that while native writers will re-
ceiye the most solid encouragement, and viii
be mainly relied on to fill the pages Of the
ATLANTIC, they will not hesitate to draw from
the foreign sources at their command, as occa-
sion may require, relying rather on the COM
potency of an author to treat particular sub
iect, than on any other claim whatever. In
this way they hope to make their Periodical
welcome wherever the English tongue is spo-
ken or read, a68 VI
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 or national, or to
private considerations of what kind soever.
l-THInD: In Politics, the ATLANTIC will be
t e organ of no party or clique, but win hon.
estlv endeavor to be the exponent of what its
con !uctors believe to be the American idea,
g will deal frankly with persons and
wilh parties, endeavoring always to keep
in view that moral element which tram
sends all persons and parties. and which alone
makes the basis of a true and lasting national
property 1t will not rank itself with any
sect of anstiss. 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 COM
| mand they subloin 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 col
un,ns. and in the remuneration of which they
shall he guided purely by their sense Of intrin-

Chicago Tribune for 1852.
TINE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is a bold, earn.

THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is bold, earn
4 est and straightforward Republican paper
devoted to the cause of Freedom, Progress. and
Reform. Believing that Liberty. and not
Bondage, is the saving principle ofthe Repub-
lie, it is enlisted into the Republican ranks,
not for campaign, but during the struggle
between Freedom and Slavery It contends
for the principles declared by the unanimous
vote of the Fathers of the Republic in the Con-
gress of 1851, that SLAVERY or involuntary ser
vitude shall never exist in territory now free
and it therefore insists that Kansas shall be free,
that Slavery shall be excluded ftom all Ma
tional Territory, and that the influence Of the
General Government shall be exercised Oh tha
side of Freedom.
THE TRIBUNE AS A NEWSPAPER.
The City of Chicago has become the news
centre, az well as the Commercial emporium,
of the great Northwest. The vast system OF
railroads terminating in it, afford facilities for
gathering intelligence from all directions with
great dispatch, and the Tribune is unriyalssd
in the West for its enterprise in this department.
It's long and spacious columns are flied with
fresh and entertaining matter, embracing essays,
tales. letters, narratives, poetry. politics, and
miscellaneous articles. The Tribune is elevated
in moral tone, and eminently adapted to the
western home circle, and the firesfde of inteui-
gent, freedom-loving families.
THE TRIBUNE AS COMMERCIAL rArER.
The Tribune is the best commercial paper in
Chicago. No expense or labor is spared to
make its market reports reliable and satsfas-
tory, not only fer Chicago. but for the princi-
pal eastern markets. The Chicago quotations
are based on actual sales. --f3l5

Twas winters night, and the pale moonlight
Lay cold on the erusted snow,
And the hour was late when ! and Kate
Home from the ball did 60
The bells kept time with the merry chlme'
AS the hoofs of my swift steed fall.
And her lovely form in my arms lay warm,
As we speeded from the ball.
Meath the yielding furs with my cheek to herr.
In pleasant dream lay, a

could feel her heart with its pulses start,
Meath the folds of her nestled shawl
And my own beat fast, as the moments passed
While going from the ball.
The pouting tips of her rosy lips
pressed with gentle kiss
She sluInbered still, but felt the thrill
That kindled my soul with bliss.
Aud while she was folded fondly near,
And my heart with RAJ ture burned,
In her sleep she nurmured low, "My dear"
And my fervent kiss returned.
And without check, around my neck
Her round. white arms she flung,
While her slender waist my own embraced.
And cur lips in union chung.
" hat happened then is beyond my ken
cannot the dream recall
But think with delight of that happy night
While going from the ball.
