IT'S AIM WILL BE

FIRST: In Literature, to leave no province
represented, so that while each number will
contain articles of an abstract and permanent
value, it will also be found that the healthy
appetite of the mind for entertainment in IFS
various forms of Narrative, Wit, and Humor,
will not go unsared for, The publishers wish
to say, ALSO that while native writers will re-
ceive the most solid encouragement, and will
be mainly relied OH to fill the pages of the
ATLANTIC, they will not hesitate to draw from
the foreign sources at their command, us occa-
sion may require, relying rather on the com
potency Of an author to treat particular sub
ject, than On any other claim whatever. III
this way they hope to make theil Periodical
welcome wherever the English tongue is spo-
ken or read,
sEeosD: III the term AnT they intend to
include the whole domain of aesthetics. and
hopegradually to make this critical department
true and fearless representative of Art, in all
it's various branches, without any regard to
prejudice. whether personal or national, OF to
private considerations of what kind socycr.
THIRD In Politics, the ATLANTIC viii be
the organ of no party or clique. but will hon
estly cndeayor TO be the exponent of what Ms
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 tnail-
sceRds all persons and parties, and which alone
makes the bass Of true and lasting national
prosperity. 1t will not rank itself with any
sect of antics. but with tbat body of men which
is III favor of Freedom, National Progress, and
Honor, whether public or private.
AS an earnest of the material at their com
mand, they subjoin the following list of literary
PERSONS interested III their enterprise wishing
il. however, to be distinctly understood thai
they shall hope for support from every kind OF
ability which desires the avenue of their eel
umns. aRd In the remuneration of which they
shall be guided purely by their sense of iutgin-
