Immediately on their arrival by the British steam

and faithful copies Of the orginals-B ackwoods

burgh edition.
The widespread fame of these splendid period.
calls renders it needless to say much in their praise
As literary organs, they stand far in advance of any
works OF n similar stamp now published while the
political complexion of each is marked by dignity
candor, and forbearance not often found in works Of
party character.
They embrace the views Of the three great parties
in England-whig, tory, and radical "Blackwood"
and the "London Quarterly" are tory; the "Edin-
burgh Review" wing; and the Westminster" rad
ical. The Foreign Quarterly" is purely literary
being devoted principally to criticisms on foreign
continental works.
The prices of the reprints are less than one-,hird
Of those of the foreign copies and while they are
equally well got up they afford all that ad vantage to
the American over the English reader.
