TUB FARMER’S GUIDE.
Great reduction iu tlio price of the latter publication.

lowing leading British Periodicals, viz;
TIIE LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative).
THE EDINGBURGH REVIEW (Whig).
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church).
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
rnilE great and important events —Religious, Political,
1 and Military—now agitating the nations of tlio Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between Hie hut-til; written news items, crude
speculations, and Hying rumors of the newspaper, and
the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after
the living interest iu the facts be records shall have
Psed 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 or of foe, and all
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. Tbe 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 Hint can elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent the three great politi
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, and Radical, —
but politics forms only one feature of their character.—
As Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Lite
rature, Morality, and Religion, they stand, ns they ever
huve stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con
sidered Indispensable to tho scholar ami the professional
man. while to tho intelligent reader of every cluss they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of tho cur
rent literature of tiie day, throughout the world, than
can lie possibly obtained from any other source.
