May 6, 1869 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the April 1869 issue of the periodical "North American." Two or three of the papers in this number of the North American are of a character to suggest the thought that, much as the usefulness arid influence of quarterly periodicals have declined of late years, they still fill a place that needs to be filled. They are no longer powerful as party organs. Nobody nowadays goes to the Edinburgh for their politics; or if possibly anybody does, they gets what they might have got better in their daily or weekly journal. Quarterlies are merely volumes of essays which hardly have a less arbitrary or more necessary bond of union than that supplied by the binder and stitcher.
