Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from The Gentleman's Magazine, Vol. 1: June-November, 1868 There is a quotation about protesting too much, and we have no intention that it should be applied to ourselves. But it contains a word which is very germane to the matter. This is the Gentleman's Magazine. We intend it should be also a Magazine for The Lady. We are something too old to blush, but we are bound to allow that some hundred years ago, we occasionally got a little more Rabelaisian - or so - than was quite decorous, and our friend Mr. Johnson's virtuous articles did now and then appear in company with epigrams not exactly suggestive of virtue. We were not coarser than our time, or we should not have prospered. But other times, other manners. We are not, however, going to be prudish and priggish. We shall certainly not publish a single paper intended for ladies only, for the singular good reason that we know it would be read by nobody at all. But to refer to our exterior once more - it will be seen that the tastes of those whom Mr. Mill calls Persons will be heeded, and we have made arrangements for certain Fiction from pens that have won golden opinions from all sorts of Persons.
