ARTICLES ON COMMON SUBJECTS WRITTEN WITH A DECIDEDLY CHRISTIAN
Tone." - DR. ARNOLD.

PREFACE.

Five years having now elapsed since the original establishment of this Periodical, and three years, since it received its present Title, the Editor, encouraged by this permanent, and, as she would gratefully add, increasing support, avails herself of the present opportunity to express her earnest determination, in dependence upon the Divine blessing, to labour in future with augmented care and energy, so to conduct “ THE ENGLISHWOMAN'S MAGAZINE AND CARISTIAN MOTHER'S MISCELLANY," that while it shall become more acceptable and attractive to its readers, it may also become more and more instrumental to the diffusion and support

of Christian truth.

The Vicarage, Appleby, Westmoreland,

Dec. 1848.
