The readers Of the CoETIxzSrAr are aware Of the
imF ortant position il has assumed, Of tbs influences
which il ezerts, and Of the brilliant array Of politf-
col and literary talent Of the highest ordsr whioh

very certain that no m~agaziao has given Hi3ef
range 70 It's contributors or preter4ed itself 80 com
pletely from the narrow influences Of party or d
faction. In times like The present, such q Journal
is either q power in the land or st Is h0thing. That.
the Continental Is not the latter Is ab0613utly
