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-
parentY Of determination, was waged against
France by British Tory rulere, and during which
occurred the second great struggle Of England
with our own country, this Review 6nt unfurled
the flag Of resistance, made by its unansweTable
and eloquent appeals in behalf inaenable rights
the halls Of legislation and even lbs throne iisell
to tremble. The graphic end stirring deleneations
Of those events presented in the pages Of that dis
tinguished Journal exhibit the truesi poraiture Of
those perilOSs dSys to be found, perhaps, in the
language. Us influence ives becoming so apparent,
that at length the leaders Of the Tory party, al
whom the thunder Of its eloquence were especial
ly directed, found it too powerful on instrument to
Be resisted by ordinary means, and hence they es-
tsbished the Quarterly OF as ii is distinguished
