The readers of the Continental are 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-
tion of the kind has, in this country, so sue
cessfully combined the energy and freedom of
the daily newspaper with the higher literary
tone of the 6rst-clasS monthly; and it is very
certain that no magazine has given wider
range to its contributors, or preserved itself
&c 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 il is nothing That the Continental is not

and Hon. F. P. Stanton TO its editorial corps
the Continental acquires strength and q
political significance which, to those who are
aware of the ability and experience OF these
gentlemen, must elevate it to position far
above any previously occupied by any publl-

promise of prospectus" to say, that this
Emagazne for the times" will employ the first
intellect in America, under auspices which
no publication ever enjoyed before IN this
country.
CuABLEs GODFREY LELAND the accomplished
scholar and author. who has till now been the
sole Editor of the Magazine, will, beside his
editorial labors, continue his brilliant contrI-
buttons to its pages and Edmund hlrke, 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 Erst
While the Continental Will express decided
opinions on the great questions Of the day, 1t
will not be a mere political journal: much
the larger portion of its colnmus wi be en-
livened, as heretofore, by tales, po' try, 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.
