OWING to the late revolutions and counter-revo-
~ buttons among the nations OF Europe, which have
followed each other in quick succession and Of which
the end 10 not yet" the leading periodicals OF Great
Britain have become invested with degree OF inter
est hitherto unknown. They occupy middle
ground between the hasty, disjoined and necessarily
imperfect records Of the newspapers, and the eabo
rate and ponderous reases to be furnished by the his
torian at future day The American Publishers,
therefore, deem proper to call renewed attention to
these Periodicals, and the very low price at which
they are offered to subscribers. The following is
their list, viz;
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW,

BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals are contained he views, mode
rately, though clearly and firmly expressed, Of the
three great parties in England-Tory, Wing and Ra-
dical-t' Blackwood" and the &C London Quarterly "
are Tory the edinburgh Review" Wing; and
the &c Westminster Review D Liberal. The C North
British Review % owes its establishment to the last
great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland and is not
ultra in its views on any one o. the grand depart

by Dr. Chalmers, and now, since his DEATH is con-
Quoted by his son-in-law DR. Hanna associated with

reprinted under that title only, is published in Eng

combination of uniting in work the best features
of both as heretofore issued.
