TIIJJ LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative).
THE KDINGBURGH REVIEW (Whig).
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church).
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW’ (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
riMIE great and important events —Religious, Political,
1 and Military—now agitating the nations of the Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between the hastily written news items, crude
speculations, and dying rumors of the newspaper, aud
the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after
the living interest in the facts ho records shall hare
passed away. The progress of the War in tlie East occu
pies a large space in their pages. Every movement is
closely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from
the Crimea ami from the Baltic iu Blackwood’s Magazine,
from tw o of its most popular contributors, give u more
intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the
great belligerents that ran elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent tlie three great politi
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, and Radical,—
but polities forms only one feature of their eliaructcr.—
As Organs of the most profound w riters on Science, Lite
rature, Morality, and Keligiou, they stand, us they ever
have stood, unrivalled iu the world of letfors, being con
sidered indispensable to the scholar und the professional
man, while to the intelligent reader of every class they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the rui
rent literature of the day, throughout tlie world, than
can be possibly obtained from any other source.
