TIIK north BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church). THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal). BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory). tpHE great ami important events —Religious, Political, .1. mid Military—uow 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, mid Hying rumors of the newspaper, and the ponderous Tome of tlie historian, written long after the living Interest in the facts .he records shall have passed away. The progress of tlie War in the East occu pies a large space in their pages. Every movement is closely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all short-coinings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from the Crimea and from the Baltic in Blackwood's Magazine, from two of its most popular contributors, give a more Intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the great belligerents that can elsewhere bo found. These Periodicals ably represent the three great politi cal [lartics of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, ami Radical, — hut politics forms only one feature of tueir character.— As Organs of tho most profound w riters on Science, Lite rature, Morality, and Religion, they stand, as they ever have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con sidered Indispensable to the scholar and the professional man, while to the intelligent reader of every class they furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the cur rent literature of the day, throughout the world, than can he possibly obtained from any other source.
