t IT3 AIM WILL BE
.'FiR'Ti In Literature, to leave no province
reprcjelitcd, Kn that while each I umber will
contain articles of an abstract and p.Tiniin-iit
value. it will also be found that the healthy
appetite of the mind for entertainment In i -t
various forms of Narrative, Wit. nml Humor,
Will not go Uucared for. The publisher vvi-di
to nay, ano, that while native writers will re
ciive the most solid encouragement, and will
be mainly relied on to fill the page of the
ATLVTIC, they will not hesitate to draw
frtm the foreign srources at their command
as occasion may require, relv In;: rather cm tho
competency of an nuihor totre.it a particular
uhject, than on any other claim whatever.
In this way thev hope tn make their Pcrlndi
cAl welcome wherever tho English tongue ii
polen or read.
Sixoxn ; In the term Art they Intend to in
clude the whole domain of ncsthctUs, mid
hope gradually to make this critical dedart
mrnt true and fearless representative of Art
in all 1'" various branches, without any regard
to prejudice, whether personal or national, or
t private-considerations or w nai kiuu soever.
' third t In Politic, the Art. vntic will be
the organ of no party cliipie, but will hones! ly
endeavor to be the exponent of what i!s con
ductors believe to be the American Idea I!
will deal franklv with persons and vvi'.h part
ies, endeavorsngtokeop In view that moral el
ement which transcends all persons nn4 par
tes and which alone makes the basis of a
tme and lasting national prosperity. H will
not rank Itself with any beet, or antif.s, but
wrtth that body of men which are In favor of
Freedom, National Progress, and Honor,
whether public or private.
As an carnst of the material at their com
mand, they subjoin the following list of litera
ry persons interested in their enterprise (wish
ing It however to be distinctly understood,
that they shall hope for support from every
kind' of ablllity which desires the avenue of
their columns, and in the remuneration of
which they shall be guided purely by their

Entering Town Sites.
Tlie following correspondence will show
that the act of the last Legislature of the
Territory, designating the County Commis
sioners as the proper persons to enter Town
Sites, is not recognized by the Commissioner
of the Land Office.
It is a question of doubt whether the Judges
of Probate, or the United States Judges, can
be regarded as "Judges of the County Court."
As soon aB that doubt is removed, notice wi.l
be given. In the mean time no entering of
towns not incorporated can be made.
A copy of the act of the last Legislating
will be placed in the hands of the Commis
sioner, and. under the circumstances, lha en
tries already made may be confirmed.

Under the "act of twenty-third May,lS44,'

of tlie County Court," but the Legislature has
recognized the "County Commissioners" as

and we have, in view of ths spirit of the law,
permitted such entries, in the hope that it
will meet the approbation of the Department.
