THE BRITISH PERIODICALS,

Great reduction in tlie price of the latter publication.
L. Scott A Cos., New York, continue to publish the fol
lowing leading British Periodicals, viz:
THU LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative).
TUB KDINGBURGII REVIEW (Whig).
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church).
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
fIMiE great ami important events—Religious, Political,
J. and Military—now agituting tile nations of the Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between tlie hastily written news items, crude
speculations, uml Hying rumors of the newspaper, and
tlie ponderous Tome of tlie historian, written long after
the liviug interest ill the facts lie records shall have
passed away. The progress of the War in the East occu
pies a large space in their pages. Every movement is
closely criticised, whether of friend nr of foe, and all
short comings fearlessly pointed out. Tlie letters from
the Crimea and from tlie Baltic in Blackwood’s Magazine,
from two of its most popular contributors, give a more
intelligible and reliable account of the movements of tlie
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals nbly represent tlie three great politi
cal purtieg of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, and Radical, —
lull isditics forms only one feature of their character.—
As Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Lite
rature, Morality, uml Religion, they stand, as they ever
have stood, Unrivalled in the world id’ letters, being con
sidered indispensable to the scholar and the professional
man, while to tlie intelligent reader of every class they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the cur
rent literature of the day, throughout tlie world, than
can be possibly obtained from any other source.
