BLAcKwooD's EDINBuRGm MAGAZINE, (Tory)
The great and important events-Reli .ois,
Political, and MiliLary-now agituting the M
,ions OF the Old World, give to these Publca-
tions an interest aud value they never before
possrssed. Thy occupy n middle ground be-
tween the hastily written ncws-it ms. crude
spcculatons, and Il wing rumors of the newspn-
per, and the pnndcrnns Tome Of the historian,
written long after the living interest in tho facts
he records shall have passed away. The pro-
gress of the War in the East occupies large
space i'll their pages. Every movement is close
~ criticised, VIII ether of friend or Of foe and NIL
shortcomings frnrcssly pointed out. The let
ters from ti'e CsiMEA and from the BALTIC
III Blackwood's Magazine, from two Of it's most
popular contributors, give integible
ana reliable account Of the movements of the
great bclli5crcntS than elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent the three
great political parties of Great Brituin.-Whi hiu
Tory, and Kadicul.-but politics forrrs only one
feature of their character. AS Organs of the
most profound writer's on Science Literature.
Morality, and Religion, they stand as they ever
have stood, un:ivurd in the world Of letters,
being considered Indispensable 10 the scholar
and tli', professional man, while TO the int~lii-
gent reader of every class they furnish more
correct nnd satisfactory record Of the current
literature of the day, throughout the world
than can be possibly obtained from any other
source.
