Oughly tried the Sarsaparila, which can recon-
mend in truth and sincerity all those who arc in
any way afflicted with any species OF scrofulous

Shaw, by the use of six bottles, restored 10 bet
Ter health than she had before enjoyed for tcnyoars

with eryspelas, was entirely cured by the use oil a

PREMIUMS TO NEW supscRBERs!
OWING to the late revolutions and counter reyo
" lutions among the nations OF Europe, which
have followed each other in such quick succession,
and of which ihe end "a not yet" the leading peri
odicals Of Great Britain have become invested with
a degree of interest hitherto unknown. They oc-
cupy middle ground between the hasty, disjoiDt-
ed, and necessarily imperfect records of the news
papers and the elaborate and ponderous treatses TO
be furnished by the historian at a 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,

crately, though clearly and firmly expressed of the
three great parties in Engand-Tory, Whig, and
Radical "Blackwood" and the " London Quar-
ter!y" are Tory; the Edinburgh Review" Whigi
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 any o the grand
departments of human knowledge IL was origin
ally edited by DIR. Chalmers, and now, since his
death. is conducted by his son-in-aw, DR.. Hanna,

character is Of tfe very highest order. The "Wcst
Minister, though reprinted under that title only is
published in England under the title of the " For.
eign Quarterly and Westminster" il being in
fact, a union OF the two Reviews formerly published
and reprinted under separate titles. IL has, there
