The article in this issue on NATIONAL UNITY, is by the Hon. Horace Greeley, who will hereafter contribute to each number of 'The Continental.'

SHOULDER-STRAPS, by Henry Morford, Esq., author of 'Rhymes of Twenty Years,' will be a sparkling commentary on 'Men, Manners, and Motives in 1862.' It will depict some prominent characters whose love of the UNION is shown in a decided penchant for 'shoulder-straps.'

The future chapters of 'A MERCHANT'S STORY,' by the author of 'Among the Pines,' will be mainly descriptive of Southern life and society.
