THE EDINBURGH REVIEW

is the exponent of the Wing party in Great Britain
having from its commencement advocated Freedom
and the rights of the people. When the war, op.
parenuY of determination, was waged against
France by British Tory rulers, and during which
occurred the second great struggle of England
with our own country, this Review first uniurled
the flag of resistance, made by its unanswerable
and eloquent appeals in behalf Of inalienabc rights
the halls of legislation and even the throne itself
TO tremble. The graphic and stirring deeneltons

those perilous days to be found, perhaps, in the
language. It's influence was becoming so apparent,
that at length the leaders of the Tory party, al
whom the thunders of its eloquence were especial.

be resisted by ordinary means, and hence they es.

THE LONDON QTARTELY REVIEW


whereby to counteract that influence which its pow.
erful rival .exered against their measures The
two great political parties thus made strenuous ef
forts through their respective organs, for the pro-
mitigation Of their antagonist principles and dur
ing long series of years, these two leading Peri
odicals have concentrated the labors, the talent
and the influence Of the adherents of the Wing and
Tory parties Of Great Britain.
Men of the highest literary rank, as dgnitaiies
civil and eccesastic have contributed to the pages
of these works; among them might be mentioned
some Of the most resplendent names on the scroll
Of fame. Among the regular contributors 10 the
London Quarterly Review were Southey, Scott,
Lockhan its present cditor), Appearson, Forgu>
son, Wordsworth, Lord Mahan, DR.. Milman (whOse
articles on Oriental literature have been highly
esteemed) and that wonderful women Of science,
Mrs. Someryille, with many others scarcely less
celebrated, Then again in the Edinburgh Review,
it is enough to mention the following names, any
one which it might be associated we refer to
Jefifeys. Napier, BroughAm, Macintosh, and
McCaulay the first of whom duling his long con.
nexion with tho Review actually wrote, on the av,
erage, one third of the articles that graced its bril-
liant pogesi while the universally admired essays
cf the last rcpublishod so extensively in our own

THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW.

THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
is a work of more recent origin than those already
descnbed-but is, neverthless, destined to occupy
as prominent place in the Republic Of Letters.
The great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland
led to its establishment, There was no journal in
the United Kingdom, which appeared to meet the
necessities Of the AntNalional- Church agitation.
Indeed, the revolution caused by the disruption
induced new state Of things, placing the actors
in new positions Of observation nor could they
give uleTance to their new perceptions Of State and
Church Polcy-their new sYmathies-their new
emotions, without some organ Of thought than any
hen extant. Hence the spontaneous agreement Of
the great master minds among them, in the noces-
sity Of a new outlet Of opinion, and the immediate
creation Of the North British Review. The basis
OF this Journal is the Evangelism Of tho Nneeenlh
century nor Is ii to be overlooked as one Of the
striking characteristics of the times, and the grand
principle which Robertson, Smith. and many of
the eminent men ofSeotland took the field centu-
~ ago to write down, is now advocated and vim
dieated 10 this able work. and in the same literary
metropolis.
