- Begun by Thomas Cottrell Clarke in 1826, this women's weekly was a newspaper-like magazine intended to be a moral, amusing, and valuable miscellany. It dealt with matters particularly of interest to women-- manners, conversation, dress, and beauty, as well as providing sentimental fiction, moral stories, biographical sketches, a weekly summary of domestic and foreign news, extracts from new publications, and essays on a variety of topics. Also included were recipes, anecdotes, book reviews, and listings of plays. Much space was occupied by selected material. Cf. American periodicals, 1741-1900.
