Owing to the late revolutions and counter-revou-
tons among the nations of Europe which have follow
ed each other in such quick succession and of which
the end is not yet, the leading periodicals of Great
Britain have become invested with degree of interest
hitherto unknown. They occupy middle ground be-
TWEEN the hasty, dsjointed and necessarily impeecrft
records of the newspapers and the elaborate and pom
derous treaties to be furnished bv the historian at
future day. Whoever reads these periodicals obtains
current and connected of all the important
political events of the old world, they occur and
learns the various conclusions drawn from them bv the
leading spirits of the age. The American Publishers
therefore deem it proper call renewed attention to
the works they publish and the very low prices at
which they offered to subscribers The following
is their list
London Quarterly Regier, Edinburgh Revieu,
Westminster Reoieao, n. British Reyieu,
AND BLACKwooD's EDINBURGH MAGAZINE
In these periodicals contained the views moder-
ately though clearly and firmly expressed of thethree
greatest parties in England-Tory, Wing, Radical
"Blackwood' and the "London Quarterly are Troy;
the Edinburgh Review" Whig and the West
minister Review Liberal. The g North British Re-
vlew owes its establishment to the last great eccles
asucal movemenr in Scotland, and is not ultra in It's
views on any one of the grand departments of human
KNOWLEDGE; it was originally edited by DIR. Chalmers
and now, since has DEATH conducted bv his son-inaw
DIR. Hanna, associated wit Sir David Brewster It's
literary character is of tn, cry highest order The
WESTMINSTER though printed under that title onv
is published in England under the title of the For-
union of the two Reviews formerly published and re-
printed under seperate titles. 1t has, therefore, the
advantage by this combination, of uniting in one work
the best features of both as heretofore issued.
The above Periodicals reprinted in New York
immediately on their arrival by the British Steamers in
beautiful clear type, on fine white paper and are
ialthiul copies OF the originals Blackwoods Magazine
oelng an exact fac-simile of the Edingburgh edition.
