This was an almanac containing the usual lists of eclipses and lunar phases, feast days and legal holidays, and the like, but it also contained the astrological predictions of Charles Raoul and F.-Ch. Barlet for the year, and the prognostications for the year of Mme L. Maurecy and N. Vaschide's psychic revelations of the hand, all combined with articles on love talismans, voodoo, physiognomy, Indian fakirs, alchemy, and tales of the mysterious. It also carried a long article on the "modern Pythonesses" who then practiced in Paris (with plates). The journal contained numerous plates and photographs and advertised ambiguously the Caroly Academie de Magie which offered its services: "Fabrique d'Appareils de Prestidigation et Trucs pour Theatres."
