EDINBURG MAGAZINE,

IN January last was commenced the republica-
tion in the New World form, Of this most crlebra-
ted and world-renowned Magazine, at price which
will insure it very large circulation.
t'BLAcKwooD" has long stood at the head OF the
periodical literature OF the world and it continues
to maintain that distinction, without rival. Pro-
lessor Wilson, its editor old christopher North,9
is unTiyalled as prose-writer and poet, and his
contributors among the FIRST living authors of
Great Britain.
Among the splendid articles now in course of
publication is a 5 rial novel, entitled

or A paper in Georgia, which advocates
the claims of John C. Calhoun to the Presi-
dency, speaking of its favorite, has the fol-
lowing paragraph;-

Spartan matron let her son go-to come back
Nth eur shields, or upon them. Calhoun
without an alternative, is the spirit of the
Southern Democracy. The Albany faction
aye, and the Richmond faction TOO, with
Richie at its head-ought to be told so dis
linctly. We believe it TO be the spirit of the
PEOPLE of our party everywhere-and before
May, 1914, it viii flame through the CONT
nent like the coafagration of the last day"
In commenting on this, Corporal streeter,
of the Richmond Star, sets forth the following
curious rejonder -
''Sof,ly, good sir, softly; you are too for
ward and rash, by far. Be so kind as to JUS

and net be running them into this part OF tbs

We will see to the boiling Of this pot, which
we have taken under eur special charge, and
will thank YOU to NEEDLE with what you un
derstand. Such rashness would set the 20
to boiling over, and put all the FIRE out in

wardness, BY any body; for we take some
pride in SO managing the old men and thu
boys in this region, that while they declar,
they don's mean to fight. yet they shall fight
uolens Uolens. Il is prime sport, but you
bungling folly might spoil it all. We vii
