The British Reyfews.

The pages of these Reviews embrace the pro.
auctions of the ablest pens of Great Britain, of all
parties and upon subjects belonging to every de.
partment Of Literature, Science, History, Fiction
and Politics. Whilet small portion CT their con-
tents is devoted to political subjects, their chief
value arises from their literary character, and in
that they stand confessedly far above all other
journals of their class. 1t is a great error to i'm.
imagine that they contain only profound discussions
of abstruse matters and are therefore fit only. for
the Scholar and Professional man. Some of the
most entertaining, no than less instructive articles
are found in every issue. In this commentator.
we of course include Blackwood's Magazine. one
Of the most racy publications Of the day. Black.
wood and the three Reviews together cost $40 per
annum. Any one of them may be got for So per
annum. The postage is not more than l2 cents Der

In accordance with a resolution passed last year
this Association is to meet again at Baton Rouge
next Wednesday the 22d inst.-being the ami
versary Of the birthday of WASHINGTON. We
trust there will be present, on this occasion, a fair
representation Of the Press of the State and
that, in a field where there are so many evils to be
reformed, something like a start upon. them will
be made.
Editors daily record the beneft of associations
and combinations, of various trades and profess
sions, for their mutual interests, and vet they neg
Iect to give that attention to their own interests
which they SO highly commend in others. If the
entire Press OF the State could be induced to meet
and spend a few days in adopting rules for their
guidance, in matters of business as well as courte
sy among themselves, it would be time spent
more proftably than in any other way it conld
be applied for that short period. We should be
much pleased to hear of a large attendance on the
above occasion.
