Such magazine CAN never command any but
eecond-rate men, and it can never succeed with
the people, The experience Of Old and Neto
showed that the fact that magazine ia con
trol1ed by dogmAtic body is an almost insu-
perable bar to success. It shook off with the
New Year the incubus OF it's connection with the
Unitarian Association, and has suffered no dis
advantage from its Independence. The reason
why readers dislike and refuse to read naga-
Kine which has such bias in it's management,
is explioable enough It is the same feeling
that's driving the political organ out OF existence
4 paper, or periodical Of any sort, that seeks
the support OF the people, must have an eye
sect, a school, or faction want to disseminate
their views through some publication Of their
own, let them do so; but they need not expect
the people to pay for it. It is for their interest,"
and they must bear the expense.

nlysis Of it in "a Good Appetite" to be much
more complex thing than most people who make
and hreaE resolutions so easily, suppose. Its
consituents, under his separating hand, make
formidable list:
resolution called, pure and simple, nneans only
this: "Archippus, or Salone, under the Light
uATe5 le8oFe I1at At AeFeu Io-orIOW WILL 1edFa my
bed" Seven comes The resolution ia just &c likely
then to take the other form =" Archippus, OF
Sa1oms, with new e1perience and moro light, resolve
that Will not leave my bed quite yet" Ona resolu-
ton is as eaaify made as another, And, alag! It Is as
easily kept as the other.
The determination you make requires great deal
more than this shortnefre fancy which people call
resolution. In my Analysis Of tho business, it re-
quires at least Ave contingent efforts, which may be
called five processca It Is impossible for to lus
