RESPECTFULLY ANNOUNCE THAT

The North American Review,

which has for the last ten years been so ably conducted by Dr. Peabody, passes now into the editorial charge of

PROF. JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL,

AND

CHARLES ELIOT NORTON, ESQ.,

gentlemen, who, for sound and elegant scholarship, have achieved an enviable reputation, both in this country and in Europe; and whose taste, education, and experience, thorough loyalty and sympathy with the progressive element of the times, eminently qualify them for the position they have assumed.

"THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW" is too well known to the literary world to require an extended notice.

"THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW" will maintain in the hands of its new editors its established reputation for independent criticism, and for well-considered opinions in politics and literature.

In discussing political and social questions, the spirit of the Review will be thoroughly national and loyal. It will defend and illustrate the distinctive principles on which the institutions of America are founded.

The ablest and most permanent publication of the kind in America (see Appleton's Cyclopædia), it has through all the changes of management sustained its high position as the leading review of this country, and as an able representative of American mind. Constantly maintaining a high character both for style and critical ability, its influence has been widely felt, and has largely contributed to make American liter-terial of thought and scholarship which the counature what it is.

From its commencement it has enlisted the pens of our ablest writers. Its list of editors and contributors includes nearly all our most distinguished authors, and some of our greatest statesmen and jurists, and the reputations of our best known essayists and reviewers are mainly founded upon their contributions to its pages.

In literature it will avail itself of the best ma

try can supply.

In its criticism it will have no ends to serve but those of sound learning and good morals.

Bound by strong associations to the past, in sympathy with the present, hopeful for the future, the Review will do its part in the intellectual movement of the times.

“THE NORTH AMMRICAN REVIEW" is published quarterly on the first days of January, April, July, and October, in numbers of about three hundred pages each, containing matter equal to four ordinary octavo volumes.

TERMS-Five dollars a year, or one dollar and twenty-five cents per number.

A new volume of the Review will commence with the January number, and the publishers trust that the increased expenditures consequent upon the changes proposed in the future conduct of the work will be met by a generous increase of the patronage of the public.
