ASH rrr
BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS.
Owing to lhc late revolutions and
counter. cyoluiions among the nations
Of Europe. which have followed each
other IN such quick succession. and Of
which "bto end IS not yet the leading
periodicals Of Great Britain have be-
come invested with "A degree Of inter
cs, hitherto unknown. They occupy a
middle ground between the hasty, dis.
jointed, and necessarily imperfect re-
cords OF the newspapers, aud the elab-
crate aud ]pOnderOus treatlses 10 be fur
nished by the historian at future day.
Whoever reads these periodicals. OBJ
tains a correct and connected 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 therefore
decrH il proper 70 cal renewed a,ten-
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 LoadO'1 QHaIterly Rec re,
TIE Ediabars Review,
The North BRITISH Regjea0,
The Westminster Revlet0,
AND
BtacklooodS Edin5argb Magazine.
In these periodicals are contained the
views, moderately, though clearly and
firmly expressed, OF the three great par.
ties in England-Tory, Wing, and Rad
ical-"Blackwood' and the London
Quarterly are Tory; the "Edenburgh
Review" Wing; 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
on any one OF the grand departments
of human knowledge; it vas originally
edited by DR.. ChalmeIs, 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, is published in England UNI
der the title Of the Foreign Quarterly
and Westminster" it being in fact a
union ofthe two Reviews formerly pub.
lished and reprinted under separate IT,
ties. 1t has therefore, the advantage
by this combination, of uniting in one
work the best features Of both as here
tolore issued.
The above Periodicals are reprinted
in New York, Immediately on their ar
rival by the British steamers, in a beau
tilul clear type, on fine white paper
and are faithful copies of the originals
Blackwood's Magazine being an exact
fac-simile of the E1enburgh edition.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
The Louisville Journal says; "Dr. Ro
gers's Liverwort and Tar not only gives i'm
mediate relief in coughs and colds, but,
from the testimony of men of the highest
standing here and elsewhere, it is making
some very remarkable cures of consump-
ton
The Railway Register adds: I'VE have
heard it stated, by persons of great respec-
liability, who have used this medicine, that
it is n of the most remarkable medicines
of the age, for Coughs, Colds, Influenza,
Bronchitis, Asthma, Pain in the side and
breast, Splitting of Blood, Whooping cough,
and all Lung complaints, which, if neglec-
ted, usually terminate in consumption; and
the certificates attached to the advertise.
ments would seem fully to justify this state
ment."
WORT.
This plant has, for many years, been
found to be of singular virtue in the cure of
affections of the Liver. More recently it
was asc%ertained that it possessed great pow
er in arresting Bleeding at the Lungs,
Coughs of a chronic character, &c, and OF
essential service in all diseases of a pulmo.
nary character.
TAR.
This article is now universally acknowl.
edged to be the most healing and efficient
application for diseased or decaying lungs.
or any portion Of the feshy or muscular
parts OF the human body. Its medicinal
and preservative qualities were understood
by the Egyptians in the early ages of the
world, and no doubt now exists among sci.
entitic men, that the preparation used in the
e~mbalmment of bodies, was composed prin.
clpally OF this ingredient. In later ages. il
was found TO be in universatuse among the
aborlgines OF America, and at this dav it is
their principal, and, in fact, only medicine
for an unsound state of the unps. or anu
approach to it. Those who are acquainted
with the history of this hardy race of men
know that a death from CONSUMPTION i.
unknown among them! The medical fac
uIty IN all countries appear to have become
aware OF the great healing properties of thi,
article, and are now introducing it in thei
practice. DIR. Buchan, of England, DIR
Srlchton, OF st Petersburg, DIR. La Prieure
Of fpls, and the distinguished DR.. Cooper
