BLACKWOOD's MAGAZINE
And the British Quarterly Reviews.

PREMIUMS TO NEW suBscRIBERs!
OWING to the late revolutions and counter revo-
" utions among the nations of Europe which
have followed each other in such quick succession
and Of which "Me end is not YETI the leading peri
odcals of Great Britain have become invested with
a degree of interest hitherto unknown They
cupy middle ground between the hasty, disjoint-
ed and necessarily imperfect records of the news
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous treatises TO
be furnished by the historian at future day. The
American Publishers, therefore, deem II proper TO
call renewed attention to these Periodicals, and
the very low prices at which they are offered to
subscribers. The following is their list, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW, and
BLACKwOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals contained the views, mod
erately, though clearly and firmly expressed, of the
three great parties in England-Tory, Wing, and
Radical. " Backwood'' and the g London Quar-
tory'' are Tory; the Edinburgh Review" Whigj
and the Westminster Review" Liberal. The
g Moth British Review" owes its establishment TO
the last great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland,
departments of human knowledge; it was origin
ally edited by DIR. Chalmers, and now, since his
death, is conducted by his son- in law, DR.. Hanna
associated with Sir David Brewster. Its literary
character is of the very highest order. The "West
Minister, though reprinted urder that title only, Is
published in England under the title of the (" For
eign Quarterly and Westminster" it being, in
fact, union of the two Reviews formerly published
fore, the advantage by this combination of uniting
in work the best features of both heretofore
issued
The above periodicals are reprinted in New York,
Immediately on their arrival by the British steam
ers, in beautiful clear type, on fine white paper
and faithful copies of the originals, Backwood's
Magazine being an exact c-simiie of the Edin-
burgh edition.
