Summary

From the same house as the Quarterly Review, Murray's surveyed British, Irish, and American journalism.

1. [Arnold, E. A.]. “Editorial Announcement.” 1 (1887): 1–2.

Confirmed that the “place once occupied by Monthly publications, as direct and powerful organs of Party, is now filled by Daily and Weekly newspapers; but the influence of Periodical Literature has been transferred to a wider and more independent sphere. In the pages of a Review or Magazine, carefully matured opinions may still be expounded by acknowledged authorities with greater completeness and deliberation than is possible in the Daily Press.” “Political Articles will invariably be signed by their Authors, who alone are to be held responsible for the opinions they express.”

2. Bunsen, George von. “What Germany Is About.” 1 (1887): 115–27.

Balanced a new German (unnamed) fortnightly on poetry against German fiction that ignored journalists.

3. G., M. “Some Odd Numbers.” 2 (1887): 481–90.

Flipped through a batch of 1834 periodicals, among them the Monthly Repository, the Edinburgh Review, and Fraser's, Tait's, and the New Monthly magazines. Quoted Leigh Hunt's London Journal, an eight-page weekly “clearly printed triple-columned,” on the variety of periodicals in that year. Periodicals in 1887 spanned more subjects at a low price but lacked the quality of the Journal because the pace of contemporary life diminished interest in “high thought.”
