BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS
Dre,nlums IN New CuksCl iberS

NWING to the late revolutions and counter-revo-
" buttons among the nations OF Europe, which have
followed each other quick succession, and OF which
the end is not yct" the leading periodicals OF Great
Britain have become invested with degree Of inter
est hitherto unknown They occupy middle
ground between the hassy, dsjonted and necessarily
imperfect records of the newspapers, and the e!abo-
rate and ponleros reatses to be furnished by the his
torian at a future day. The American Publishers,
therefore, deem proper tn call renewed attention to
these Periodicals, and the very low price at which
they are offered to subscribers. The following is
their list, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW, ae
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW,
sc Nr AND
BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals contained the views, mode
rately, though clearly and firmly expressed, of the
three great parties in Englanl-1ory, Wing and RAJ
dica-s' Blackwood " and the C London Quarterly .
are Tory the C Edinburgh Review y Whig and
the 8: w e. minister Review Liberal The" North
British Review I" owes its establishment to the last
great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland and is not
ultra in its views on any one OF the grand depart
ments Of human knowledge it was originally edited
by DR. Chalmers, and now, since his death, is con-
Quoted by his son-in-law DIR. Hanna associated with
Sir David Brewster. Its literary character is of the
very highest order. Tbs &C Westminstei," though
reprinted under that title only, is published in Eng
land under the title Of the " Foreign Quarterly and
Westminster 70 it being in fact Union OF the two
Reviews formerly published and reprinted uAer sepa
rate titles. 1t has therefore the advantage by this
combination of uniting in work the best features
of both as heretofore issued.

A GREAT NATIONAL WORK.
THE GALLERY OF Industrious
AMERICANS.
Daguerreotypes by Brady---Engraved by

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN.
FINDER this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty -four Portraits and Biographi-
cal Sketches of American citizens Tho have become
ustrious in the service of the country. Every por-
ton OF the work will receive the most careful atten-
ton, and nothing will be spared to render worthy
mad enduring monument to the great mon OF the Re
public.
Mr. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, in collecting Portraits for National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work believed to be superior to any that have
ever been taken. In the accomplishment of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
from distinguished men. Mr.. Brady's
reputation has been long established to need any

highest sense the works OF art, glowing with tie soul
OF the living countepance.
The drawings and engravings of D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans OF taste to be BILLY
equal and in some respects superior those of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every inn
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his i'm
mediate supervision The Typography will be exc
cuted carefully and in superba style as the en-
cravings themselves The entire work will be on
The finest imperial folio paper 16 by 90 inches, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope il
win therefore be comprehensive III its spirit. The
names of those only admitted, w hose talents
and public services have won for them honorable
fame throughout the nation. Each of the great de-
partments of life will have its representatives,. Art
and Literature universal in their spirit and the
Gallery is intended to be worthy and enduring mon
ument to the great men of the Republic, whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory Of
the nation. We hope that every lover OF Art, and
friend of our glorious Union, will respond to our APP
peal for encouragement and aid in so commendable
undertaking, that its publication may make an era in
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
llusrious men of the Union together, consolidate
still more firmly.
As no work of this kind has appeared in America,
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place
beyond the reach of most of citizens the publish
ers have resolved to merit large circulation, by
charging very low price They have, therefore,
established the following

PROSPECTUS OF A NEW SERIES OF
The Southern Quarterly Review.

COMMENCED ON THE 1sT OF ArRrL, 1850, BY
WALKER & RIcHARps, Proprietors & Publishers,
TERMS-S5.00 per annum, payable in adj
vance
The publishers of the SOUTHERN QUARTERLY
REVIEW beg leave to entreat the attention of the
public to that Work, to return thanks for the In
variable indulgence which has smiled upon its
progress hitherto, and to express the hope that
this counenance will not be withdrawn, now that
the publication, passing from the hands of the
former publisher into their own, makes, as 1t
were, a fresh start in the pursuit Of well known
PROCESS. They cannot allow themsevest to doubt,
that---wi,h all their former contributors, with the
addition Of many new ones, not less valuable and
dstinguished--u the conduct still of Mr.. w :.
GILMORE SIMMs, it's sole Editor during the past
year--and with the assurance which the subscri-
bers now beg leave to give, that the work will be
henceforward issued in a style very superior to
| that OF the past, on better paper, with fine new
| type, and with regard TO neatness and finish,
which will leave ii second to none in the country
they will continue to receive that patronage which
thair own endeavor and the claims of such an or
gan seem reasonably to demand.
The writers for the REVIEW include the greater
number of the best and ablest names of the
country. They represent the highest literary
talent of the South, and reflect truly, with a ma
tive earnestness, force, and fidelity, the real pol
icy and the peculiar institutions of our section
We entreat the people Of the South, who feel
the importance of such periodical as the Review,
to excuse it's Deficiencies, and generously lend
| themselves to its assistance. With their counte-
nance and concurrence, it can become the estab-
| lshed organ Of domestic opinion--the champion
| of our rights and character abroad-the guide and
counsel to intellectual progress and proper taste
| at home-the arena in which the better minds OF
the country may always distinguish themselves,
and find the proper provocauon to execution and
| performance--the wholesome authority to which
| we may always turn for the correction and re-
straint of crude and undigesed speculation. These
are all objects Of the last necessity to civilized
people, who have anything to gain by enterprise
or any thing to lose by remissness and indifier-
! ence. Once more, we ask from the patrons of the
Review, indulgence for the past, and such sym,
patty and support for the future as are due to the
vital interests which it faithfully serves, and the
| character which it seeks to establish.
