CONTINENTAL EIOyTHJY

The readers Of the CONTINENTAL arc aware of tho
important position it has assumed, Of the infuencs
which it exerts, and Of the brilliant array IF polit /
al and literary talent Ct the highest order which
supports it. No publication OF the kind has, H.
Insecurity, so successfully combined tie energy
and freedom of the daily newspaper with the high
r literary tone of the f~rst-claSS monthly; and 1t il
very certain that no magazine his given wi1 q
range 60 its contributors; or preserved Itself so com
letely from the narrow Influences Of party or of
faction. Ia times like the present, such a journa
is eitbera power in the land or 1t is nothing. THAI
he Continental is not the latter is abundantly
5vsdeneedlby what ithas done-by the reflection o.
Is cOnnsels in many important public events. and
n the character and power Of those who are it,
staunchest supporters.
Though but little moro than a year las elapse,
+incc the Continental was first established, il haS
Turing that time acquired a strength and a signi-
ieanee elevnting tito u position far above that pre-
viOusly occupied a strengt tn and a political signi6
'ance ~elevating it to a position far above that pre-
yiously occupied by UDy publication" of the kind ir
America. In proof of which assertion we call at
tention to the following faetsl
1. OF its poheal artioles republishcd in pamphlet
form, a single one has bad, thus fur, a circulation
of one hundred and Six thousand copies.
2. From its literary department, a single serial
novel. "Anong the Pines" hos, within a very few
Two other series of its literary articles have also
been repuhlished in book form, while the hrst por-
tion Of third is already in press.
No moro conclusive facts need be alledged to
prove the the excellence Of the contributions to the
Continental, or their extraordinary popmla-itv: aud
its conductors are determined that it shall not fall
behind. Preserving all "the boldness, vigor and
ability" which a Thousand journals have attributed
to it, it will greatly enlarge its circle Of action. and
discuss, fearlessly and frankly. every principle in
uOlved id the great questions Of the day. The FIRST
mindsOf the country embracing the men m0st
fsmiliar with its d ~plomacy aud most distinguished
for ability, are among its contributors; and il is
no mere "Aattering promise Of a prospectus to say
that this 'magozine for the times will employ the
the first intellect in America, under auspices which
no publication ever enjoyed before in this copntry.
While the Continental will express decided
opinions on the g.eat questions of the day, it viii
not be a mere political Journal: much the larger
portion of its columns will be enliyened, as hereto
tore, by tales, poetry and humor. In word, the
Continental will be found, under its new staff of
Editors, occupying adosition and presenting atnae-
tons never before found in magazine.
