TWO WAYS TO WEDLOCK!
The River Falls journal. (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1857-1861, 1859-09-28
IT'S AIM WILL BE

| FIRST In Literature, to leave no province
represented so that while each number VIII
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 unsared for, The publishers wish
to say, also, that while native writers will re-
ceiye the m ost solid encouragement, and will
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 a particular sub
ject, than on any other claim whatever. In
this way they hope to make then Periodical
| welcome wherever the English tongue is spo-
ken or read.
SECOND: In the term ART they intend to
include the whole domain of aesthetics, and
geographically to make this critical department
true and fearless representative of Art, in all
its various branches, without any regard to
prejudice whether personal or national, OF to
private considerations of what kind soever.
THIRD In Politics, the ATLANTIC will be
the organ of no party or clique, but will hon.
estly endeavor to be the exponent of what its
conductors believe to be the American idea,
It will deal frankly with persons and
with parties, endeavoring always TO keep
in view that moral element which tram
sceSds all persons ana parties, ana winch alone
makes the basis of a 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 COM
mand they subioin 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
umns, and in the remuneration of which they
shall be guided purely by their sense of intrin-
sic merit -
