THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW.

THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW.
This able Journal was established under the pa.
tronage and support Of the ullra.iberals, so STYLED
of the British House Of Commons among whom
RoWbuck, Mill, BowTing Professor Long of the
London University, Miss Martineau, and others
names need not be quoted, conspieuously figured.
It was for some years under the editorial supervi
sion Of Jeremy Benthnm, for which fact it obtained
the sobiquet Of the mouth piece of Benthanism.-
This work has ever been especially devoted to the
great topics which interest the mass Of the people
its pages has been rife, it will be remembered, with
a series of powerful articles, tending to the reduc
tion Of Tory and exclusive privileges, hereditary
rights, kingly prerogatives, &c. The astounding
developments made few years since, respecting
the wretched and, then, unheard ofhorrors of some
branches of the mining population Of England
first appeared in its pages. Not only have its ar
tices ever been directed against the afore>ment9n-
cd abuses the work has also maintained an unre-
entng crusade against the alliance Of church and
State, thus virtually seeking to abolish the Par
amentary Religion" of England, and eventually
to remove the still existing marks of feudalisni,
which continue TO afilct the British nation. 1t
has recently become the medium through which
Golden promulgates his Free-trade doctrines
which will give il increased interest To the numer-
Gus admirers here and eesewho of that great Re
former. In many particulars the Westminster Re-
view espouses political faith closely allied to that
Of our own country; and therefore we may, with.
out any extraordinary effort of charity, be induced
10 cherish il as an exorc worthy of being engraft-
ed into more genial soil. 1t has recently been
united with the Foreign Quarterly Review, the
more attractive features of the two Reviews being
now combined in the Westminster, and thus ad
ding greatly TO its value as literary periodical.
