The Literary Magnet

The Literary Magnet was a British magazine. Started as a weekly magazine in 1824 by Egerton Brydges and his son using the pseudonym Tobias Merton, it became a monthly magazine towards the end of 1824. The Magnet went through a number of editors, and was bought first by Alaric Alexander Watts in late 1825, and then William Charlton Wright in 1828. Its primary emphasis shifted from prose to poetry under Watts, who managed to get contributions from several notable poets of the day.
