Pii'fti) Politics and controversial Theology, as iar as possible.are zealously excluded. They .re sometijhes so bleided with discussions m literature or in moral science, otherwise unob jectionable, as to gain admittance for the sake oi the more valuable matter to which they ad here : hut whenever lhat happens, they are in cidental. only : not primary. They are dros.-, tolerated only because it eann.i well he ser ved from ihe sterliug ore v. h. ri with it is incor- porated. Its \ .eivj, and CYitii .h.

In this age of publica tions that hy liner variety and multitude dis tract and overwhelm every luidiscriiniunting student, ixii*ahtiai. tniriii-M, governed by the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and indispc usable of auxiliaries, to ilim who ilia >• irish to ibse.i iminate Essays, and Tai.es. having in v iew utility nr amusement. or both—lll-loin \i. uu.'ii'ii 11—and Kiimimsc i;m i:s of events too minute tor History, yet elucidating it. mid heighten ing its interest, —may he regarded as forming the staple ol' the work. And of indigenous I'uirnt enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to mauif st and to cultivate the growing pin tical taste and talents of our coun try. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand sueii a work—and not one alone, hut i many. The public mind is feverish and irri- 1 tateci still, from recent political strifes : —The , soft, iissuasive influence ol’ Interaturc is need ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita tion. \ ic, and folly are rioting abroad : —They should lie driven by indignant rebuke, or lush ed bv ridicule, into their titling haunts. Igno rance lords it over an iiiiinense proportion of. oar people : Every spring should be set in motion, to arouse'tiie enlightened, and to ill- | crease their number ; so that the great enemy of popular government may no longer brood, like a pjrti iiloiis cloud, over the destinies ol our country. And to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can lie employed, j 1 bait a periodical,on the plan of the Messenger: j if that plan he hut carried out in practice r The Sol ill peculiarly requires such an a-, gent. In all the Union. south of Washington, j there are but two Literary periodicals ! North ward of that city, there are probably at least' twenty-live or thirty !

TO say that this is a reading age, implies a desire for instruction, and the means to { i gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a ' greed ; on the second, there is diversity both of opinion and practice. We have newspa jpers, magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of. all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have ! severally their classes of readers and support 1 ots. Aml yet copious us are. these means oi j intellectual supply, more are still needed. In addition to the reviews of the day and passing notice.'} of books, the people in large numbers,. ' in all p..rts of our great republic crave the pos session oi the books themselves, and details, beyond mere passing allusion, oT the progress oi discovery in art and science. But though it be easy to ascertain and express tiieir wants, ii i jis not so easy to gratify them.
