paper, and are faithful copies Of the originals
BLAcxwoop's MAGAZINE being an exact fac-simile
OF the Edinburgh edition.
The wide spread fame Of these splendid Peri
odcals renders it needless to say much in their
praise. As literary organs, they stand far in ad'
vance of any works Of n similar stamp now pub
lished, while the political complexion of each is
marked by dignity, candor and Performance not
often found in works Of a party character.
They embrace the views Of the three great par.
ties in England Wing, Tory, and Radical
"BIackwood' and the "London Quarterly" are
Tory; the edinburgh Review" Wing: andthe
"Westminster," Radical. The "Foregn Quar-.
tery" is purely literary, being devoted principally
to criticisms on foreign Continental Works.
The prices of the REPRINTS are less than one
third Of those of the foreign copies, and while
they equally well got up. they afford all that
advantage to the American over the Enghsh reader.

The NOlcsliin Hat.

As this light, beautiful article may be consid-
cred, par excellence, the fashionable hat, | have
bestowed great cara md attention in its manufac-
rure, both in procuring the best material and the
best mechanics, and in adopting the newest and
most valuable Improvements made either in
France or this country. Flattering myself that
can now produce hat equal in style and finish,
well as in ightness md durability, to the best
New York retail establishments, and far excelling
any thing made in that city, for expectation to
this or any other market.
The shape Of these hats is the lntcst and most
fashionable, ard the fact that they retain their
shape and last longer than any other hat, espe-
eiaily recommends them to the economical. The
public are invited to call and examine them.
