BLACKWOOD's MAGAZINE
BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEW

nWING to the late revolutions and counterrevolutions
~ among the NATIONS of Europe, which have followed
each other in such quick succession, and of which Ht
end is not y the leading periodicals of Great Britain
have become invested with degree of interest hitherto
unknown They occupy middle ground between the
hasty dsointed and necessarily imperfect records of the
newspapers and the elaborate and ponderous treaties &c
be furnished by the historian Mt future day. Whoever
reads these periodicals obtains correct and connected
count of all the important political events OF the Old
World they occur and learns the various conclusions
them by the leading spirits of the age The
American publishers therefore deem proper to call
newed attention to the works they publish and the very
low prices at which they offered to subscribers The
following is their list, viz:
The LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
The NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW, and
BLACKwooDS EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals contained the views moderately
though clearly and firmly expressed of the three greatest
parties in Engand-Tory, Wing, and Radical; " Black
wood" and the London Quarterly" Tory the Edin
burgh Review Wing, and the " Westminster Review
Liberal The North British Review" owes its establish
ment to the last great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland
and is not ultra in its views of the grand de
partments of human knowledge. 1t was originally edited
by Dr. Chalmers and now, since his DEATH is conducted
by his sonnaw, DIR. Hanna, associated with Sir David
brewster Its literary character is of the very highest
order The Westminster" though reprinted under that
title only Is published in England under the title of the
Foreign Quarterly and Westminster" it being in fact
union of the two Reviews formerly published and reprinted
under separate 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 imme
diaely their arrival by the British steamers In beau
tful clear type fine white paper, and faithful
pies of the originals Backwoods Magazine being an ex

0rwe cut the following from the
Cincinnati Times, of the 96th ult. We
rejoice to learn that our friend Newton
is thus favorably bringing himself into
notice:
SURGICAL OPERATIoN.-Having learn
ed that a surgical operation had been
performed in Mrs. Gould's boarding
house, on Longworth street near Plum,
we took the liberty of calling there yes
terdav. We found the person on whom
the operation had been performed to be
Mr.. Zachary Lewis, Of Frankfort, KY,
who had been afflicted for several years
with large malignant tumor. The
removal of the tumor was effected on
Monday last by DR.. o. E. NEWTON,
and Yesterday we found him walking
about with every prospect that he viii
soon return home to his family perfect
,ly cured. This adds another case to
the skill Of Cincinnati surgery.

THE TURKISH REBELLIoN-TERRI-
BILE CHAsTIsEMENT OF THE lNsUR'
GENTs.-Letters from Constantinople
of the 20th ult., announce that the
rebels at AIeppo have been complete
ly exterminated by Kerim Pasha's
troops. The rebels Of Bosnia have
been likewise defeated by Omar
Pasha.
Accounts from Constantinople OF
the 20ih ult., state that terrible
chastisement has been inflicted on
the insurgents of Aleppo. On the
evening Of the 18th ult., Kerim Pasha
invited the principal chiels ol the in
surgents to come to him. They ac-
copied the invitation, persuaded that
the fear Of fresh Disturbances would
make them respected. Kerim Pasha
had them placed under arrest. The
insurgents finding their chiefs did
not return, rushed to arms, and came
in number about 10, 900, and insolent-
lv demanded their liberation. The
Ottoman general was prepared Tor
this. and replied to their demand by 6y
charging them at the head OF 4'OOO
imperial troops. whom he had assem-
bIed on the inside Of some barracks:
The combat was desperate, and
lasted for more than twenty-iour
hours but the result was favorable to
The Turks. Three Mussulman guar
ters. Karleck, Bah Coussa. and FL Bah
Neirab, which were the seat of their
revolt, have been almost entirely
DESTROYED. Eighteen hundred Of the
rebels fell in the struggle, and the
remainder, with the inhabitants Of
the above quarters, have fled from
Appleton, the Turkish cavalry pur-
suing them. Not a single Christian
fell in this terrible affair. All the
property Of the rebels will be devoted
by the authorities to indemnify the
Christians for their losses on the i4in
and 18th October, and to rebuild
the three churches which were burn
ed. The Bosnian insurgents have
also been defeated in two battles;
and thus has the Sultan triumphed
over feudality and fanaticism.

,hoI.rn umoua California Indians.

The New York Sun has a letter
from San Francisco, dated The 18th
November, in which the writer says:
The Indians and Mexican popula-
ton in Santa Clara valley have been
the principal sufferers. Whole com
munities have been entirely swept of
in the course of a few days, and the
only evidence left OF those who once
inhabited the fertile plains and val
lies, is the remains Of their rdncheros,
on the banks OF the streams. In
ride few days since over the plains
and through Santa Clara valley,
was myself an eyewitness to the
distress Of the poor Indians in con-
sequence Of this dread scourge oI
mankind. Not a rancho was passed.
but that we saw one or more lying
dead on the ground, unburied-and
abandoned by relatives and tribes
Sanchez, the wealthy Californian,
lost every Indian on his rancho, in
the course OF four or FIVE days, and
he has collected together his cattle
and taken to the mountains near
Santa Cruz, for safety.
The disease has been sInguiariy
fatal among the Indian and Mexican
roces in consequences Of their subsis-
ting, at this season Of the year, on
melons and crude fruits, together
with their filthy and exposed manner

From WAsHINGToN.--The Balti-
more Patriot, of the 23d ult, mas the
following relative TO affairs a! Wash
ington:
Congress will be in session to-day,
but we can hardly expect any thing
to be done iiIl after the holydays are
over. The tariff question, it is sup
posed, will, at an early day, be
brought before the House, and there
is a strong hope INDUCED, that such
alterations will be made in the exis-
ting rate of duties, and the manner
of levying them, as will not only add
to the revenue, which the wants ol
the treasury demands, but will secure
proper protection to our home in
dustry, which is now, in many of its
branches, languishing for the want
OF that protection.
The feeling in both Houses Of Con-
gress against any interference with
the peace measures of the last ses-
sion, is so decided, that no fear is fell
that they can, even by those who de
sire to do so, be made a matter o.
excitement at this session. We un'
derstand that so decided is the feeling
adverse TO any further agitation o
these questions, the proposition o
the Governor of Virginia, for con
vention OF delegates to meet in thi'
city in May next, meets with littl'
favor from any quarter. We arr
glad of this. The agitation is pu
down. Let nothing be done TO Civ
an excuse for reviving il.

The Delaware Republican gives
the following account of the trial
and acquittal of Jacob Green:
"Jacob Green was tried on Tues
day last at New Castle, for the muir

proved that Green was married
about six wears ago. and lived hap
pily with a woman to whom he was
much attached, and that Rrdden Sc

He would frequently take her from
her house and keep her away all
night; and there was proof OF adul-
ferrous intercourse. On Green accu-

had your wife, and will have her
again, whenever like, and il you
don't keep quiet will blow your
liver out.s He carried two pistols
loaded for the avowed purpose ol
shooting Green, and on one occasion
assaulted and beat him severely
He loaded these pistols with slugs on
Saturday, the Doth Of July last, tel,

to shoot Green. That night he
took Green's wife from her house
and kept her out all night.
