THE GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE AND HISTORICAL REVIEW.
The next number of the "Gentleman's Magazine" (which will be
published on the 1st of February, 1850), will exhibit several
alterations in the character and arrangement of its contents, which
have been determined upon after due consideration of the present
state of our literature.
Time was when the whole field of English Literature was before us,
and we were its only reapers. At that time the harvest was scarcely
rich enough to supply materials for our monthly comment. One hundred
and twenty years have produced a marvelous revolution. Our
literature has grown and expanded, and been divided and subdivided,
and has still gone on growing and increasing, until--such is its
wonderful extent and fertility--every separate branch maintains its
independent organ, and we ourselves, overpowered by a growth which
we were the first to foster, have gradually been compelled, by our
limited space, to allow one subject after another to drop from under
our notice.
