1t discusses in an able manner the condition,
past and present and the future prospects, of the
colored population of the United States. Such in

There is well-written Introductory, but the
ablest and most elaborate article is that ON Civil
zation-its Dependence on Physical Circum-
stances by James MCune Smith, cOlored ply
stefan of much distinction in New York. ltshows
much research and thought.
The Magazine commences its career with modest
appearance and subscription price-a favorable
sign Of permanence and success. We hope that 1t
will be taken by all the colored persons in our
village who are able, as it cannot fail to improve
them, intellectually, morally, and physically

Here is curiosity-the first number of
monthly Magazine. published and edited by col
ored men, its contributors mainly colored people
Among these contributors we notice the names of
those whom we know to possess talent of a high
order Rev. II. H. Garnet, DR. James MCune
Smith, Frederick Douglass, j. W. c. Pennington,
Mary A. S. Carey, Sarah NJ. Douglass, Geo. b.
Vashon, M. H. Freeman, DC. Among the number
of contributors named no doubt others of equal
talent are included; but we are not so well able to
speak of others.
The articles are generally creditable; the Intro
ductory, and one on 'Civization-its Depend
ence on Physical Circumstances are certainly
able. Daily Dispatch Pittsburgh, Pa.)
This first number gives promise of an inter-
esting and valuable journal, and We hope the ex-
pertinent of its publisher will be decided sue

EDITOR OF TRIBUNE Il have Just received from
the office of the ARgiO-Atrican Magazine, pub
lished in New York, three numbers, and, as a trib
ute to both enterprise and merit, desire to say
few words on the subject.
While there is a spirit that would crush the
colored race, and trample them under foot as infe
rior, it is cheering to witness single triumph of
our colored friends, and them rise in manliness
and power in spite of prejudice and hate. If any
one doubts their upward tendency, their want of
elements essential to elevation, let him call
and read single article in one of these Magazines,
and then blush for the injustice done a crushed
people. The talent and taste exhibited would do
honor to any Magazine published in our nation.
Nor would we thus speak of single author or
single article the whole work gows with the evil
dence of talent and scholarship-far more so than
many of the popular productions of the press. Let
our citizens interest themselves in the Angio-Afri-
can Magazine, and while they encourage the
terprise, they will also beenfit themselves by an
increase of useful knowledge, and decrease of I'M
generous and unreasonable prejudices. | com
mend it to our Reading Rooms, and to every pri-
vate family as a work of decided merit for only
one dollar year.-Rer. r. H. COnklin, in Trtblne
