 L. Scott X Co Publishers, 79 Fulton N. Y. In our advertising columns will be found the annual advertisement of Scot's Re-publications l of these valuable English Reviews It is almost superauous to call the att, ,tion of our literary readers to them, as they are already sufficiently well known and highly appreciated by those who take an interest in foreign affairs, and who are l interested also in the varied and entertaining views presented by these Reviews upon all ma ture of Church and State policy, to need any special commendation from us here. The LON. DON QUARTERLY representing the "Conserva- tive" views, The END1NBuRGH-those of the '' Whigs"-the NORTH BRITISH, that of the ' Free Church," The WESTMINSTER, the "Lib- eraf' and Backwood the "Tory" side of Eng fish politics, present altogether an attraction and an interest for the student. the scholar and the literary man, that no other publications in this country can afford in so cheap and compact series. The four Reviews are published quar- terly, and Blackwood, monthly.
 Of the numbers before us, THE WEsTMISrsrER contains among other able papers, cue on "American Slavery the Impending Crisis which is an exhaustive review of the whole pro-slavery ground and exhibits the almost unanimous view taken. by English writers upon the subject of american slavery, and upon the present aspect of ofthe slavery question in relation to the psrpetu ity of our government. A,pcrusal of it will af. ford interesting food for reflection to those people and those journals who imagine that the senti. ment of the northern country is ruled by C King Cotton."
 The February number of BLAckwooD has an interesting and entertaining sketch entitled " School and College life it's romance and real ity," which gives sparkling view of the life of student at the English preparatory schools and colleges. It will be read with interest by many students of our own country.
 The Msssrs Scott, barring little petty econo my which now and then they practice toward the press-are deserving of the praise of us all in thus presenting to the American people reprints of these able and interesting British reviews.
 We shall notice them during the year as from time to time we receive them. For terms, &c.-l see advertisement.
