The wide spread fame Of these splendid Peri
odicals renders it needless to say much in their
praise. AS literary organs, they stand far in adj
vance of any works of a similar stamp now pub
lished, 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 par
ties in England-Tory, Wing, and Radical
"BIackwood" and the "London Quarterly" are
Tory; the " Edinburgh Review" Wing; and the
Westminster Review" Radical. The North
British Review" is more of a religious character,
having been originally edited by DR.. Chalmers,
and now, since his death. being conducted by his
son-in-law, DR.. Hanna, associated with Sir David
Brewster. Its literary character is of the very
highest order. The WESTMINSTER" though re-
printed under that title only, spublished in Eng
land under the title of the Foreign Quarterly
and Westminster" it being in fact union of the
two Reviews formerly published and reprinted un'
der separate titles. 1t has, therefore, the advan-
tage by this combination, of uniting in one work
the best features of both as heretofore issued
The above Periodicals are reprinted in New
York, Immediately on their arrival by the British
steamers, in beautiful clear type, on fine white
paper and are faithful copies of the originals

you for the aid which you rendered, despite
the hazard and jeopardy of your own life,
would be acting contrary to my feelings. But

DISASTER!

The Spanish Steamship GuadalquiUir, Capt.
MANUEL LABARDoRA, arrived at this port about
IL O'Clock this morning, in distress.
We learn that the GuadaIgwiUir is burthen
600 tons; that she left Havana on the 2o'h
February. in ballast for New YORK; tor Inc
purpose of undergoing some repaiFs.-Expe-
rienced strong NorthardIy winds until within
100 miles of New York. On the night of the
26th Feb, at IL O'Clock, experienced severe
gale from N. E.-endeavored to head it that
night and next day, tremendous heavy sea
rolling during the whole time, which carried a.
way bulwarks and swept the decks, together
with bulkhead, which supported the hurricane
deck, and the Steamer nearly filled with water.
The Captain called consultation of the
officers, and it appearing evident that the ship
could not stand the sea much longer on her
present course, it was determined TO scud her
The Engines proved faithful, under the super
intendence of Mr.. DOWNING, Chief Engineer,
who. we learn, is highly commended by the
Captain, for the praiseworthy efforts lie used
for the safety of the Steamer. The Stea-
mer was scudded for two days-expect-
ing every moment to be the last. 100
miles South of Cape Henry, fell in with Pilot
Boat Fashion, of Baltimore. Owing to the
heavy sea, it was impossible for the Pilot Boa
to go alongside the ship, but through the ur-
gency of the Engineer, one of the Pilots, Mr..
JOHN A. THOMPSON, of Baltimore, was ndu-
Ced to fasten rope to his body and drop him
self into the water, and by this means, thro'
great exertions, he succeeded in getting on
board of the steamer. While Mr.. T. was in
the wafer, the two vessels unfortunately
come in contact, and placed him in great peril
of his life. He was forced to sink himself
below the bottom of the Steamer, TO prevent
being crushed to death. He, however, sue
ceeded in getting on board the steamer, I'M
hurt. AS the two boats come together, three
hands on board the Fashion jumped on board
the Steamer, and Mr. Thompson had grca;
difficulty in getting them back. They were,
however, placed in yawl, and succeeded in
reaching the Fashion in safety. The Steamer
then bore up for Cape Henry, but the Sc;
making a complete breach fore-and-aft, ant
the ship being in danger Of going down every
moment, her course was shaped for Charles
ton. On arriving off Cape Fear, it was fount
that her fuel was giving out, and she put int
this port in the above condition.

LAZINEss STRONGER THAN DEATH.

LAZINESS STRONGER THAN DEATH
During the summer of 1916, corn being scarce
in the Up-country, and one of the citizens being
hard pressed tor bread, having worn thread-bare
the hospitality Of his generous neighbors by his
extreme laziness they Thought it an act of charity
to his family to bury him Accordingly, prepa-
rations were made for interment, placing him in
wagon the company moved towards the place
ofinterment and being met by one of the citizens,
the following conversation took place. Halo !!
what have you there? Poor old Mr.. S. !!
what are you going to do with him. Bury
him What, is he dead !? | hadn't heard Of
his death. No he is not dead, but he might as
well be,-he has no corn and is too lazy to work
for any. That is too cruel for civilized people,
Twill give him two bushels of corn myself
rather than see him buried alive. Mr. S. raised
the cover and asked in usual lazy dragging tone.
Is it shelled? No but you can soon shell it.
