For this purpose it often becomes necessary to establish a vehicle of its own, by means of which it may regularly make known its progress, and its wants, and be able to communicate any thing else which is important to its welfare. The Directors of the American Education Society have long felt the need of some such medium of communication, and at a recent meeting it was voted, to publish a sheet quarterly, to be devoted to the interests and objects of the Society. It is not intended, by taking this course, to supersede the aid which has been so long and so generously given to the Society by the Editors of religious newspapers, but rather to supply them with more frequent and copious materials from which to make extracts; and the hope is cherished that instead of publishing less hereafter in support of the object which the Society is aiming to accomplish, they will publish more. The Quarterly Journal will contain, original communications, addresses, and occasional extracts, upon any subjects interesting to the friends of culated to enlighten the public mind, and to secure general confidence and support. It will devote a few pages to miscellaneous matter, consisting chiefly of literary notices and of facts, intended to promote the cause of christian piety and of general benevolence. The department of intelligence will exhibit a detailed view of the operations of the Society and of the Board of Directors, including a complete quarterly list of donations, of every kind to the Society. The following statement will furnish all the additional information, which is necessary to explain the object of the publication, and the manner in which it will be conducted. 1. The Quarterly Journal will be published regularly, by a Committee of the Board of Directors of the American Education Society in July, October, January, and April; and will be issued as soon after the quarterly meetings of the Board in those months as circumstances will permit. 2. It will be furnished gratuitously to individuals, or associations, paying not less than $5 a year into the Treasury of the Society. 3. The price to subscribers will be 50 cents a year; or $5 for every dozen copies taken by a responsible agent. |
