The readers Of the CONTINENTAL are aware Of The
important spOEition it has assumed, Of the influence
which it exerts, and Of the brilliant arrayO Of p0dtl-
cal and literary talent Of the highest order which
supports it. No publication Of the kind has, il
this country, so successfully combined ne energy
and freedom Of the daily newspaper with the high
or hteraFY tone Of the frst-elass monthly; and 1t il
very certain that no magazine has given wider
range to its contributors; or preserved itself 90 com
pletely from the narrow indaences Of party OF Of
