The present critical state Of European afairs
will render these publications. unusually interest
ing during the forthcoming year. They will
cupy middle ground between the hastily writ
ten news items, crude srccuations, and the pom
dcrous Tome Of the future historian, writ ten after
the living interest and excitement Of the great
political events Of tho time shall have passed
away. 1t is to those Periodicals that readers ust
look fer the only really ineligible and reliable
history CT current events, and as such, in sddi-
ton to their vel established literary, scientific
and theological character, we urge tacm uyon the
consideration Of the reading public.
The receipt Of ADVANCE SHEETS from the
British publishers gives additional value TO these
Eeprl nts, innsmuch as they can now be placed in
the hands OF subscribers about as soon as TIE or
iginal editions.
