The readers Of the Continental arc aware Of
the important position it has assumed, of the
influence which it exertS, and of the brilliant
array Of political and literary talent of the
highest order which supports it, No pub ica
tiou of the kind has, in this country, 50 sue
ceSSfully combined the energy and freedom Of
the daily newspaper with the higher literary
tone of the frst-clasS monthly; and II is very
certain that no magazine has given wider
range to its contributors, or preserved itself
so completely from the narrow influences Of
party or of faction. In times like the present
such a journal is either power to the land
or it is nothinr That the Continental is not
the latter is abundantly evidenced by ,chdt ii
has doue-by the reflection of its councils in
many important public events, and in the char
acter and power of those who are its staunch-
est supporters
| By the accession of Hon. Robert J. Walker
and Hon. 7. p. Stanton 10 its editorial corps,
the Continental acquires Il strength and
political significance which, to those who are
aware Of the ability and experience Of these
gentlemen, must elevate it to u position far
above any previously occupied by any publ
cation of the kind in America. Preserving
all 1.-The boldncss. ygor, and ability" which
a thousand journals have attributed to ii, il
and discuSs, fearessly and frakly, every prin-
ciple involved in the great questions of the
day. The first minds of the country, embraC-
ing men most familiar with its diplomacy and
most distinguished Tor ability, are TO become
! its contributors; and it is no mere "fattcring
promise of a prospectus" TO say, that this
margarine for the times will employ the first
intellect in America, under auspices which
no publication ever enjoyed before in This
country.
CHARLES GODFREY LELAND, the accomplished
scholar and author, who has till now been the
sole Editor of the Magazine, will beside his
editorial lahorS, continue his brilliant contri-
buttons to its pages and Edmund kirke, au-
thor of "Among the Pines" will contribute to
each issue, having already begun work on
Southern Life and Society, which will be
found far more widely descriptive, and in all
respects, superior to the FIRST.
/ While the Continental will express decided
! opinions Oh the great questions of the day, it
will not be mere political journal much
the larger portion of its conmus will be en-
1ivened, as heretofore, by tales, poetry, and
humor. In a word, the Continental will be
/ found, under its new staff of Editors, occupy
| ing position and presenting attractions
never before found in magazine.
