in 1810 by Dennis Hart.

The _Eclectic Repertory and Analytic Review, Medical and Philosophical_,
was commenced in October, 1811, and continued until October, 1820. It
was published quarterly, and edited by an association of physicians, and
published by T. Dobson and Son.

It was continued in January, 1821, as the _Journal of Foreign Medical

The _Freemason's Magazine and General Miscellany_ was published from
1810-1812 (?). It was edited by George Richards, a school-master and
clergyman of the Revolution. He was the author of "An Historical

ROBERT WALSH began, in 1811, the publication of the first quarterly that
was issued in the United States. It was the _American Review of History,
of Politics, and General Repository of Literature and State Papers_, and
