From TRUBNFR'S Guide to American Literature
1--WE must refer in terms of euogy to the high
tone and varied excellencies of HARPER's MAGA-
zINE, journal with monthly circulation of about
l70,0 copies, in whose pages is to be found
some of the choicest light and general reading of
the day. We speak of this work as an evidence of
literary taste OF the American people, and tho
popularity it has acquired is merrited. Each
Nnmder contains fully l44 pages of instructive
matter, appropriately illustrated with good wood
cuts; and it combines in itself the racy monthly
and the more philosophical quarterly, blended
with the best features of the daily journal. 1t has
great power in the creation and dissemination
