BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE
And the British Quarterly Reviews.

PREMIUMS TO NEW sUBscRIBERs!
Owing 70 the late revolutions and counter revo-
~ lutions ai,lnng the nations of Europe, which
have followed each other in such quick succession,
and Of which 'se end is nc. yet" the leading peri
odicals of Great Britain have become invested with
degree of interest hitherto unknown. ihey oc-
cupy middle gi, and between the hasty, disJoint-
ed, and necessarily imperfect records OF the news
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous treasses 10
be furnished by the historian at future day. The
American Publishers, therefore, deem 1t proper 70
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 ecentainod the views, mod
crately, though clearly and firmly expressed Of the
three great parties in England-Tory, Whigs and
Radical. " Blackwood' and the :" London Quar-
terly" are Tory; the edinburgh Review" Wing;
and the "Westfninster Review" Liberal The
/" North British Review" owes its establishment to
the last great ccclesia ical movement in Scotland,
and s not ultra in its views any one OF the grand
departments ofhuman knowledge; it was origin
ally edited by DIR. Chalmers, and now, since his
DEATH is conducted by his SON in law, DIR. Hanna,
associated with Sir David Brewster Its literary
character is of The very highest order. The "West
Minister, though reprinted under that title only, ia
published in England under the title of the "For-
egn Quarterly and Westminster" it being, in
fact, union of the two Reviews formerly published
and reprinted under separate titles. 1t has there
fore, the advantage 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 steam
ers in beautiful clear type, on fine white paper,
and are faithful copies of the originals Blackwoods

V'HE UNDERSIGNED proposes TO publish n
Il political Weekly paper in the German Ian
principles by which the Administration of Gene
raj Taylor came into power, and being desirous 20
obtain the aid and cooperation Of the Wing party
he would respectfully state the reasons which, in
his estimation, make IL desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the sea
of Government.
/. The number Of those who use the German Ian.
guage az their medium of intercourse is upwards of
Three Millions, and this number is constantly in
crcasing by immigration.
2. The name of Democrats being the sppcllation
OF the liberal or popular party of Germany, 10
which all the immigrants before their emigration
belonged they do Of course, range themselves with
the party bearing that appelation in this country,
as coon ss they able 70 exercise the elective
franchise; and the more so, as the country tcems
with Democratic papers in the German language,
whose particular object and anxiety it 10 20 use this
Interpretation 20 the best advantage.
3. Although there few Wing papers in the
country, they bear principally local character,
and, relying for their support local patron
age than their subscription lists, they do gene
rally stand or fall with the success defeat Of the
Wing party in their particular section.
4. The Germans, however, being an intelligent
and reading people, arc accessible 20 sOuud argu-
mcnt, and paper conducted with uprightness, and
speaking the plain truth, will be able, by degrees,
TO overcome prcJudcc-, correct errors and nisap-
Prchensions, and by it's own direct influence, as
well as by ts influence upon the local Wing pa
pcrs, in existence, will, it is hoped produce
The desired effect and gain the rejecting and think
ing, that Is the influential, portion Of the German
citizens, over 10 the Whg ranks.
3. The undersigned Is well aware that he has
many and serious Obstacles 20 overcome, but rely
ing upon the power Of truth and the cooperation
Oi the Wing party, ON account of the intrinsic
merits Of his enterprise, does not fear 10 be charged
with entertaining too sanguine hopes, if he antici
patcs satisfactory result.
