Additional Details

The first and apparently only issue of a projected monthly literary magazine. The last 19 pages are devoted to army intelligence. "It was planned to include original and selected articles, the latter from the latest English periodicals received which would not be accessible to the general reader because of the blockade. The magazine was to contain tales, poetry, sketches of life and manners . . . instructive miscellany and articles on political economy"--Sabin 84943. Not in Lomazow.
