This number of the Review is graced by
1.-TWO portraits--those Of Gen. Scott and M
1P. Gentry. 1t looks little Synonymous

1.-TWO pefsonages in such q position, but it is
all right we suppose--those who-can recon
cile as many Inconsistencies as the support
ers Of Gen. Scott are compelled 10 do, can
we should say, overcome almost anything in
the way Of paradox. Zsi
We shall probably have more to sayo the
Review hereafter. For the present we viii
only make one quotation and two remarks
Here is the quotation:
~ Upon the sohole, il is difficult to sag sosich ot
the t,oo are most toortby Of our pity (and pity
akin to contempt,) the Democratic candidates o,
their constituents at home"
| The first remark we have to make is, that
the feeling aroused in our minds by the Pc
rusal of the article from which the above
quotation is made, is disgust too strong 10
Iallow any place for pity. The second is, that
we advise all who are desirous Of reading a

We have not had time 10 examine careful

we have glanced at some Of them, and shall be
disappointed if upon further acquaintance
they are not found to possess great interest.
The Postscript" is an appeal TO the Con.
servative party 10 rally, at the late elections
in defence Of the church and the monarchy,
which were declared to be in danger. If the
ascendency of the conservative party was
necessary to their safety they are certainly
in imminent danger, for that party, as all
