THE EXAMINER. 143-----
Early in the Spring will be published A New Monthly Periodical,
TO BE ENTITLED
THE ENGLISH GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE.In announcing the appearance of a new Magazine, intended to be essentially
different from any at present published, the Proprietors deem it necessary
to state, briefly but explicitly, the object of their undertaking.
At a period when most of the Magazines are identified with opinions directly
opposed to the true interests and manifest desire of the public, the want of
another Monthly Periodical, adapted to the spirit of the times, is too obvious to
require explanation. The field is evidently open for a Magazine conceived in
rigid honesty of purpose, and executed with ability, energy, and good faith.
In Politics it will always be the endeavor of the Proprietors to increase the
sum of knowledge, virtue, and happiness among mankind, and to uphold the
cause of reason and liberty in whatever guise it may claim their advocacy. At
the same time, to prevent the possibility of misconception, it is proper to state,
that they corceive it to be the duty of an honest journal rather judiciously to
direct the enthusiasm of the people, than to pervert and inflame it. Should the
day unhappily arrive when the numerical shall be opposed to the intellectual
force of the country, the ENGLISHMAN will be found at his post, on the side
of reason, constitutional liberty, and national honour.
As a Critical Journal, the ENGLISHMAN'S MAGAZINE will found its
claims to support upon firm and fearless integrity, seconded by the industry of
enlightened and able men, whose co-operation has been secured. In the several
departments of elegant literature, the Proprietors are enabled, by facilities
peculiarly their own, and by a liberal scale of remuneration, to command an
unfailing variety of instructive and entertaining contributions from English,
Continental, and American sources; including, from time to time, the wild
fictions and romantic chronicles of Scandinavian and German growth, many of
which will deserve to be naturalized on English ground.
The Fine Arts will receive especial attention; and in connection with this
department of the work, will be introduced a series of effective engravings,
illustrative of the scenery, architecture, costumes, and pastimes of Italy.
Finally, while always mindful that amusement and information are the main
business of a popular Magazine, the more serious object of this undertaking will
be to expose, wherever they exist, in church and state—in art and science—
in politics and letters—quackery, dishonesty, and cant; to raise humble merit:
to protect and encourage genius; to uphold the dignity of literature; and to
promote sound and enlightened views on every subject that comes within the
scope of a Magazine.
London: Hurst, Chance, and Co., St. Paul's Church-yard.
