BLACIxwOOD's MAGAZINE
And the British Quarterly Reviews
fREMIuMs To NEW sUBscRIBERs

PREMIUMS TO NEW SUBSCRIBERS!
OWING to the late revolutions and counter revo-
" lutions among the nations of Europe, which
have followed each other in such quick succession,
and of which e end is not get" the leading peri
odcals of Great Britain have become invested with
degree of interest hitherto unknown. They oc-
cupy middle ground between the hasty, disjoint-
ed, and necessarily imperfect records of the news
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous reatises TO
be furnished by the historian at future day. The
American Publishers, therefore, deem it 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 are contained the views, mod
erately though clearly and firmly expressed, OF the
three great parties in Epgland-Tory, Wing, and
Radical "Blackwood'' and the " London Quar-
terly" are Tory; the Edinburgh Review" Wing;
and the "Westmnster Review" Liberal The
" North British Review" owes its establishment to
the last great ecclesiastical movement In Scotland,
and is not ultra in its views any OF the grand
departments ofhuman knowledge it was origin
ally edited by DR.. 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 under that title only is
published in England under the title of the T" For
eign Quarterly and Westminster" 1t being, In
fact, union OF the two Reviews formerly published
and reprinted under separate titles. II has, there
fore, the advantage by this combination of uniting
in one 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 hne white paper,
and are faithful copies of the originals, Blackwoods
Magazine being an exact fac simiie OF the Edin-
