The Leonard Scott Publishing Com
pany, of New York, report the leading
British Quarterly Reviews and Black
moods Magazine, at prices greatly be
| low those of the foreign publishers. To
those who wish TO keep posted in British
politics and literature, these publications
| are essential.
The Edinburgh Review was established
as the organ of the young Wing party of
| Scotland, having for its earlier writers
such men as Sydney Smith, Jeffreys and
| Macaulay. 1t remains faithful to its ira
| ditions-nOt Radical like the Westmin-
ster, nor Tory like the London Quarterly,
| but favorable to the most liberal cOnstruc
ton of the British constitution consistent
with the supposed rights of the governing
classes. Latterly, however, political sub
| jects occupy but few of its pages, literary
matters filling by far the greater portion
of its space. The October number con-
tains the following articles: The Ecumen-
| ical Council Freshfeld's Travels in the
Caucasus the Due d'Aumale's Lives of
the Condos; Thornton on Labor; Count
Bismarck; Robinson's Parks and Gar
dens of Paris Ferguson on Treeand Ser
pent Worship; Diaries of Henry Crabb
Robinson; Indian Judges, British and
Native; The Nictorial of Don Pedro
NinO; Mill on the Subsection of Women
The London Quarterly Review is the
organ of the party known in Great Britain
| as the Conservative, of which Mr.. Disra-
eli is q recognised leader. The October
number contains the following articles ::
Islam; Isaac Barrow; Higher and Lower
Animals; the Byron Mystery; the Water
Supply of London; Lord Lytton's HOr-
| ace; the Reconstruction of the Irish
| Church; Sacerdotal Celibacy; the Past
and the Future of Conservative Policy.
| The article which will attract most atten-
ton in this county is that on the Byron
Mystery, in which Mrs Harriet BeecheI
| Stoves scandalous article in relation to
Lord Byron and his sister, published sim
ultaneously in the atlantic Monthly and
Macn1iLLdn'S Magazine for September,
based upon revelations said TO have been
made in confidence to the author by Lady
Byron, is shown to be entirely without
foundation. 1t is the most crushing refu-
tation of cunningly devised story we
have ever met with.
The Westminster ReUielU is the organ
of the party in Great Britain, in politics
and pOlemics, that takes the most adj.
vanced ground, but whose doctrines find
more favor now than ever before. tn,
following are the articles in the October
number: The Quakers; the Poems and
Prose Remains of Arthur Hugh Clough
Water Supply of London; Sunday Lib
erty; the Afghan Tribes on our Trans
Indus Frontier; the National History OF
Morals; the Albert Life Insurance Com,
pany Compulsory Education; Prostitu
ton: its Sanitary Superintendent by the
State; Contemporary Literature. The re-
view of contemporary literature is a marked
feature of this periodical, and is an ex-
ceedingly valuable one.
| The North British ReUielV was es
tablished a quarter of a century ago il
the interest of the great religious move
ment which resulted in the establishment
of the Free Church of Scotland, as indie
pendent of the State. The foreign pub
fishers append note to the one hun
dredth number of this periodical, the las
we have received, in which they congratu
late their readers and friends upon the
second great triumph of the cause of which
the North British has been so able an ad
vocate, in the passage through the Parlia
ment of Mr. Gladstone's bill for the discs
adjustment of the Irish Church, policy
which it declares it will follow to its lie
Ultimate conclusions, which can only NEAR
the disestablishment of the English as vel
as the Scotch and Irish Churches. Al
though not entirely devoted to polemics,
considerable share of this Review is giveI
to the discussion of theological subjects
or TO subjects of a theologico-poiitica
cast.
BlackiCOOd'8 Magazine is so wei
known as to render commentator unne
cessary. In politics it is strictly Tory
but it is up with tie times in every othel
respect Some of the best literary pro
auctions in our language have first seen
the light through the pages of Black
a0OOd AT the same time it does not neg
lect the lighter and perhaps more attrac
tive features of the literature of tn
day
