AND THE

AND THE
BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS.
Owing to the late revolutions and
counter-revolutions among the nations
of Europe, which have followed each
other in such quick succession, and Of
which "the end is not get" the leading
periodicals of Great Britain have be-
come invested with a degree of inter
est hitherto unknown. They occupy a
middle ground between the hasty, dis
jointed, and necessarily imperfect re-
cords of the newspapers, and the elab-
crate and ponderous treatises to be fur
nished by the historian at a future day.
Whoever reads these periodicals OBJ
tains a correct and connected account
of all the important political events of
the old world, as they occur, and learns
the various conclusions drawn from
them by the leading spirits of the age.
The American Publishers therefore
deem it proper to call renewed atten-
ton to the works they republish and
the very low prices at which they are
offered to subscribers. The following
is their list, viz:
The London Quarterly Rev 10,
The Edinbmrg ReUieW,
The North British ReuieW,
The Westminster ReUiel0,
AND
Blackoood'S Edinburgh Mdgasiae.
In these periodicals are contained the
views, moderately, though clearly and
firmly expressed, ofthe three great par,
ties in England-Tory, Wing, andRad-
ical-"Blackwood" and the London
Quarterly are Tory; the "Edenburgh
Review" Wing; and the Westminster
Review" Liberal. The "North British
Review owes its establishment to the
last great ecclesiastical movement in
Scotland, and is not ultra in its views
/ on any one of the grand departments
of human knowledge; it was originally
S edited by DR.. Chalmers, and now, since
4 his death is conducted by his son-in-law
:. DIR, Hanna, associated with Sir David
S Brewster. Its literary character is o.
the very highest order. The "West.
minister" though reprinted under that
y title only, is published in England un.
" der the title Of the Foreign Quarterly
: and Westminster" it being in fact
: union ofthe two Reviews formerly pub
lished and reprinted under separate ii
ties. 1t has therefore, the ~advantag,
by this combination, of uniting in on
work the best features of both as here
tofore issued
The above Periodicals are reprinte,
