LIBRARIANS, BOOKSELLERS, SUPERINTENDENTS OF COLLEGIATE AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, AND THE
LITERARY PUBLIC IN GENERAL, ARE RESPECTFULLY INFORMED THAT THE UNDERSIGNED
WILL ISSUE ON THE 1ST OF JUNE NEXT, A

LITERARY AND CRITICAL JOURNAL,

256 PAGES, ROYAL OCTAVO, ENTITLED

THE NATIONAL QUARTERLY REVIEW,

EDITED BY EDWARD I. SEARS, A. B.

THE new Periodical will not be the organ of any clique, or party. It will know no such distinctions as North and South, except as indicating the integral parts of our common country; in short, it will be American in the broadest and most legitimate acceptation of the term.

Although devoted mainly to Literature, Art, Education and general Culture, it will contain occasional articles on the prominent political questions of the day.

While giving due prominence to American Literature, it is our intention that no foreign work of decided merit, whether French, German, Italian, Spanish, &c., shall be overlooked. The best will be examined in the original, and such new facts or interesting theories, as they may be found to contain, will be brought under review, and discussed in a liberal, cosmopolitan spirit.

Reviews of remarkable works on Christianity, by writers of different religious denominations, will be admissible.

Educational publications will receive careful attention, especially Greek and Latin Text Books. From twelve to eighteen pages will be devoted to brief critical notices of new books, translations, &c. A list containing the full titles of all publications received during the quarter, will be given at the end of each number. In a word, nothing will be omitted, which should be expected in a critical journal of the first class; no pains nor expense will be spared to render it in fact, as well as in name, THE NATIONAL QUARTERLY of the United States.

TERMS.-The Review will be furnished only to annual subscribers, at the rate of Three Dollars for a single subscription, or two copies for Five Dollars.

Nevertheless, in order that the community shall be enabled to judge adequately of the merits of this new publication, the publishers will furnish a SPECIMEN COPY OF THE FIRST NUMBER to those desiring to inspect its plan and arrangement, upon the transmission of SEVENTY-FIVE CENTS to them, at any time prior to the day of the proposed publication.

The early attention of literary men, and of librarians, is therefore deemed to be absolutely indispensable.

Business communications to be addressed to the publishers. Communications relative to the literary department, to be addressed to Mr. E. I. Sears, who will promptly examine all articles sent, cheerfully returning, if desired, such as may not be deemed suitable.
