With the last Number, HAKPER's New MONTH
LY MAGAZINE enters upcn the Tenth Year of its
publication. rs general aims and objects, and
the manner in which they are carried out, are
now so well knowD, that the Publishers think it
scarcely necessary to say that the Mag is the
organ of no party in Politics. of no sect in Relig-
ion, of no other clique in Literature or Art. 1t
aims to meet the wants AID express the sent-

While the Magazine will still be mainly flied
with original papers upon American subjects, fur
niahed by American authors, the Publishers will
also procure from foreign sources such contrhu-

from entire Strangers will receive the same con-
sideration as those rom the most Intimate friends
OF the Editors. They might spare themselves
much labor by refusing to examine contributions
from those whose names are not already known

as great now; and they pledge themselves that
no effort or expense shall be spared to make the
Magazine worthy Of continuance and increase
of the favor with which it has uniformly met.
