THE GREAT BRITISH QUARTERLIES
AND BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.

Important reduction in the rates of post
age! LEONARD SCOTT & Co., No. 54.
Gold street, New York, continues to publish
the following British Periodicals, viz:
The London Quarterly review, (Conser-
vative,)
The Edinburgh Review, (Whig,)
The North British Review, Free Church,
The Westminster Review, liberal. J and
Blackwoods Edinburgh Magazine, (Torv.
Those Reprints have now been in sue
cessful operation in this country for twenty
years, and their circulation is constantly
on the increase, Notwithstanding the COM
petition they encounter from American pc
riodicals of similar class, and from nu-
merous Eclectics aid Magazines made up
of selections from foreign periodicals.
This fact shows clearly the high estimation
in which they are held by the intelligent
reading public, and affords a guarantee
that they are established on a firm basis,
and will be continued without interruption.
Although these works are distinguished
by the political shades above indicated, vet
but small portion of their contents is de-
voted to political subjects. 1t is their
literary character which gives them their
chief value, and in that they stand con-
fessedly far above all other Journals of
their class. Blackwood, still under the
mastery guidance of Christopher North,
maintains it's ancient celebrity, and is at
this time, unusually attractive from the
serial works of Bulwer and other literary
notables, written for that magazine, and
first appearing in its columns both in Great
Britain and the United States. Such works
as Z" The Cations and my New Novel;
doth by Bulwer,) "My Peninsular Medal
" The Green Hand" and other serials, of
which numerous rival editions are issued
by the leading publishers in this country
have to be reprinted by those publishers
from the pages of Blackwood, after it has
been issued by Messrs. Scott & Co., so that
subscribers to the reprint of that Magazine
may always rely on having the earliest
reading of those fascinating tales.
ne Remittances and communications
should be always addressed, post paid, to
the publishers. LEONARD SCOTT & co.

The Boston TRANSCRIPT mentions q fun
ny mistake which occurred in that neigh
borhood few weeks since. A painter
ordered from Baltimore several barrels of
zinc paint, and at the same time an amateur
farmer ordered a few barrels of guano; the
orders were answered, but the zinc paint
was sent to the farmer, who used the article
to manure his land; the painter received
the guano, but discovered his mistake in
making his first artistic operation with the
article. The farmers lands were ''pizened."

THE REWARD OF DILIGENCE.-''Seest thou
man diligent in his business ?" says Solo
mon; che shall stand before kings" We
have striking illustration of this aphorism
in the life of DR.. Franklin, who, quoting the
sentence himself, adds, "This is true:
have, stood in the presence of FIVE kings, and
once had the honor of dining with one. :"
All in consequence of his having been ''dili-
gent in business" from his earliest years.
What a lesson is this for our youth, and for
us all!

PARENTAL ADvIcE.-The following advice
was impaired to the late ex-President Ad-
ans, by his mother, in 1778, in letter to
him while he was in Europe: Great learn
ing and superior abilities, should you ever
possess them, will be of little value and of
small estimation, unless virtue, honor, in
tegrity, and truth, are cherished by you.-
Adhere to the rules and principles early in
stilled into your mind, and remember that
you are responsible to your God. Dear as
you are to me, | would much rather prefer
that you would find a grave in the ocean
which you have crossed, than to see you an
immoral, graceless child"

THE HOME JOURNAL Home

| IL IL hOME JOUhNdA.-1ue nome
L Journal has now become UNIVERSAL
There are few families OF cultivated habits
flew Of those who seek to enliven and
make home the most intelligent and at
tractlve place who do not now receive it.
1t is read we believe, wherever run the gold
threads of domestic happiness and true
moral refinement, which are woven so thick
ly into the stronger and coarser web of our
country's industry and energetic prosperity.
The Home Journal is the speaker to the
hearts Of this busy nation, in the hours
given to happiness and relaxation.
Our increased subscription enables us to
assistance than we have heretofore used
upon the paper. We are now able to trans
Ter some Of the merely laborious department
to other hands. This enables us to carry
out very cherished design of our own
one of which we have long seen the value,
but which we have deferred, simply and
only from not having the time and labor to
Go justice to it. We now announce it,
however, and will endeavor in some mea-
sure to describe it under the head of
A NEW FEATURE.
ing circle is enlivened, by the coming in of
an intelligent man, who knows all the new
ideas afisat, and tells them briefly, happy,
and off hand, in the way of ordinary con-
versation.
Such a person gives you the substance
of all the daily papers, in three or four
sentences-tells you the plan and moral Of
new book in dozen words-gives the
essence of sermon, the core of public
speech, the key to public character, the
spirit of an article in a review, the novelty
in fashion, the last turn in politics-all
briefly, and all without detail or hummery
leaving 1t with you, as material for your
own discussion and gossip. We mean to
jot down, for readers, in the fewest words
possible, every new idea that falls in our
way. AS we read, as people drop in and
talk, as we look about in our walks, we shall
giving them in the briefest shape under the
head of MEMS. or GOSSIP.
Formerly we used to lay such memoranda
aside, to write about if we should find time
now, we shall give them to our readers,
to discuss for themselves, In this way, the
subscriber to the Home Journal will stand
a chance to get hold, in some way or other,
of every new idea that is going.
The other popular features of the paper
will be continued ;-Sketches of Bellies,
Portraits of public Characters, descriptions
of stirring events in New York, news of
fashion and manners, phases Of gay and
literary society, any new fun or folly-in
short, a PICTURE OF THE WORLD AS 1T PASSES.
We have scarce thought it necessary to
mention, however, what our readers well
understand, that we take care also to
chronicle and advance every interest of
benevoence and moral improvement, and
strive hard to make the Home Journal no
less useful and improving than it is enter
tanning and original.
AS New Years Present from a Gen.
tleman to Lady, the Home Journal is one,
of which the remembrance is renewed every
week, and it is unsurpassed as a gift in
good taste.
