UARPER'S MAGAZINE.
VOLUME XIX.

With the last Number, HARPER's New MONTH
LY MAGAZINE enters upon the Tenth Year of its
publication. Its general aims and Objects and
the manner in which they are carried out, are
now so well known, that the Publishers think it
scarcely necessary to say that the Magazine is the
organ of no party in Politics, OF no sect in Relig-
ion, of no other clique in Liter allure or Art It
aims to meet the wants and express the senti-
ments of the wise and good, the conservative and
patriotic, who form the mass of the citizens of ev-
cry section of the country.
The Editorial Departments of the Magazine
viii present. the same features as heretofore In
the Table" will be discussed grave themes of
historical or ethical interest; the Easy Chair"
will touch upon the varying social and aesthetic
topics Of the day at home; the Foreign Bureau
will pres ut he gossip and chat of the Old World:
the "Recorl" will briefly chronicle events of no,
!itical or historical Importance; the Literary No.
tices" will furnish impartial critiques upon the
leading books they issue from the press: the
Drawer" will, by favor Of hundreds of c1ntribu-
tore, continue to be the repository of odd, humo-
rous, or pathetic anecdotes sayings, and remines-
ccnce.
While the Magazine will still be mainly filed
with original papers upon American subjects, fur
ni-hcd by American authors, the Publishers will
also procure from foreign sources such contribu-
tons as may seem to them Of special interest or
value, The Magazine, containing at lest one
third more matter than any ether published in
the country, will be able to give an Essay by Mac
auley or Carlyle, Serial Novel by Bulwer Dick
ems, Thackcrav Reade. or a Tale by Miss
Mull6ch, Nrs. GaskeN, or WLkie Collins, and
still furnish more original matter than any of its
contemporaries.
The series of Illustrated Papers upon American
Scenery, Manners, and History will continue to
be special feature of the Magazine. These will
be continued at frequent intervals, until every
portion OF our continent has been faithfully illus
trated by pen AID pencil.
In making these selections from the mass of
matter continually placed In their hands the
Editors will be Influenced solely by their iudg-
ment OF the intrinsic merits of the articles who's
ly irrespective Of their authorship. Contributions
from entire strangers will receive the same con-
sideration as those from 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
to the Public; but they are confident that the
Magazine would lose much in variety and fresh
ness; for many Of the most valuable articles which
it has contained have been received from writer's
who were unknown to the Editors and to the
public
The unexampled success OF the Magazine impo-
ses corresponding duties upon the Publishers.
At no former period have their facilities been
as great as now; and they pledge themselves that
no effort or expense shall be spared to make the
Magazine worthy OF a continuance and increase
of the favor with which it has uniformly met.
