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
'tht end IS not get, }" the leading period.
Gals of Great Britain have become invest
ed with degree of interest hitherto un-
known. They occupy middle ground
between the hasty, disjointed, and ne
cessarily imperfect records of the news
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous
treatises to be furnished by tie historian
at future day. Whoever reads these
periodicals obtains correct and connect
ed 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 there
fore deem it proper to call renewed atten-
tion to the works they republish and the
very low prices at which they are offered
to subscribers. The following is their
list, viz:
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
qazE WESTMINSTER REVIEW,
and
BLAoKwooD's EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals are contained the
views, moderately, though clearly and
firmly expressed, Of the three grea1 par
ties in England Tory, Wing, and Radi-
cal--"B "Blackwood" and the '.London
Quarterly" are Tory the edinburgh
Review" Wing; and the "Westmiter''
Review" Liberal. The "North British
Review" owes it's establishment to the
last great ecclesiastical movement in
Scotland, and is not ultra in its views on
any one of the grand departments of hui
man knowledge; it was originally edited
by DR.. Chalmers, and now, since his
death, is conducted by his in-law,
DR.. Hanna, associated with Sir David
Brewster. Its literary character is of
the very highest order The 'Westmin-
ster,' though reprinted under that title
only, is published in England under the
title of the Foreign Quarterly and West
minister, it beingin faoi union of the
two Reviews formerly published under
separate titles. Ithas therefore, the adj
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 arriva
by the British steamers, in beautiful
clear type, on fine white paper, and are
faithful copies of the originals, Black
