The readers of the Continental are aware of
the important position it has assumed, of the
influence which it cxcrts, and of the brilliant
array Of political and literary talent of the
highest order which supports it. No pnblicT-
ton of the kind has, in this country, so sue
cessfully combined the energy and freedom
of the daily newspaper with the higher lit.
erary tone of the tirst class monthly: and
and it is very certain that no magazine las
giuen wider range to its contributors, or
preserved itself SO completely from the mar
row influences of party or of faction. In
times like the present, such a Journal is Ell
Their power in the land or it is nothing. That
the Continental is not the latter is album
dainty evidenced BIZ ,chat IL has done-by the
reflection of its counsels in many important
public events, and in the character and pow
er of those who are its staunchest support
crs.
BY the accession of Hon Robert j. Walk
er and Hon. +. Z. Stanton to its editorial
corps, the Continental acquires a strength
and political significance which, to those
who are aware of the ability and experience

its circle of action, and discuss fearlessly and

Charles Godfrey Leland, the accomplished
! scholar and author who has till now been
| the sole editor of the magazine, will, besides
| his editorial labors, continue his brilliant con-
tributions to its pages ; and Edmund Kirke,
author OF Among the Pines, will contrib
ute to each issue, having already begun q
| work on Southern Life and Society, which
will be found far more widely descriptive, and
in all respects superior to the first. ..a
| While the Continental will express decided
opinions on the great questions of the day, it
will not be u mere political journal much
the larger portion of its columns will be enli-
ycned, as heretofore, 10y tales, poetry, and
humor. In a word, the Continental will be
found under its new staff Of editors, o -upy-
ing position and presenting attractions never
before found in magazine.
