ed by physicians, and admitted to be the mosl
powerful and searching preparation from the root
that has ever been employed in medical practice
Its operation extends to the remotost parts of tho

THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW.

THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
is a work Of more recent origin than those already
described-bui is, nevertheless, 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 10 meet the
necessities Of the Anti NAtonal-chureh agitation.
Indeed, the revolution caused by the disruption
induced q new state Of things, placing the acton
in new positions of observation nor could they
give utleranee to hor new perceptions Of State and
Church Polcy-their new sYmathies-ther new
emotions. without some organ Of thought Than any
hen eXani Hence the spontaneous agreement Of
the great master minds among them, in the neees-
sity or new outlet Of opinion, and the immediate
creation Of the North British Review. The basis
OF this Journal is the Evangelism Of tho Nineteenth
century nor is it to be overlooked as one Of the
striking characteristics OF the times, and the granl
principle which Robertson, Smith. and many Of
the eminent men ofSeotland took the field a ceniu-
~ ago to write down, is now advocated and viD-
dicaied io this able work. and in the same literary
metropolis.

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. ap-
parentlY Of determination, was waged agaiDsi
France by British Tory rulers, and during which
occurred the second great struggle Of England
with our own country, this Review first unflrled
the flag of resistance, made hy its unanswerable
and eloquent appeals in behalfof inalicnable rights
the halls of legislation and even the throne itself
to uemble The graphic and stirring dcleneations
Of those events presented in the pages Of that dis
tnguished Journal exhibit the truest PoftfaituIe Of
those perilous days 10 be found, perhaps, in the
language. It's influence was becoming so apparent,
that at length the leaders of the Tory party, at
whom the thunders Of its eloquence were especial
ly directed found it too powerful instrument 10
be resisted by ordinary means, and hence they es-
tablished the Quarterly" or as it is distinguished
among the American Reprints,
THE LONDON QTARTELY REVIEW
whereby TO counteract that influence which its pow.
erful rival exeried 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 adhenns Of the Wing and
Tory parties Of Great Britain.
Men Of the highest literary rank as dignitaries
civil and ecclesissc, 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 to The
London Quarterly Review were Southcy, Scott
Lockhah its present editoT), Appearson, Fergu-
son, Wordsworth, Lord Mahan, DIR. Milman whose
articles on Oriental literature have been highly
esteemed and that wonderful women Of science
Mrs. Somerville, with many others scarcely lesi
celebrated. Then again in the Edinburgh Review
it is enough to mention tho following names any
one which it might be associated I've refer to
Jeireys. Napier, Broughlm, Maokintosh, and
McCaulSy the irrt Of whom during his long con.
ne1ion with the Review actually wrole, on The Sv-

This work has ever been especially devoted to the
great topics which interest the mass Of the people
lis pages has been rife, it will be remembered, with
series of powerful articles, tending to the reduo

rights, kingly pTerOgatives, &c. The astounding
developments made few years since, respecting
the wretched and, then, unheaTd Of horrors Of some
branches Of the mining population Of England,

lenting crusade against the alliance Of church and

which continue to alllicl the British nation. nj
