Great reduction in the price of the latter publication.

lowing lendiug British Periodicals, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative).
THE KDTNGBURGH REVIEW (Whig).
THE NORTH BR'TISH REVIEW (Free Church).
the Westminster review (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
1 1 M 1 E great and important events —Religious, Political,
J. and Military—now agitating the nations of the Old
World, give to these Publications un Interest and vuiue
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between the hastily written news items, crude
speculations, and flying rumors of the newspaper, and
the ponderous Tome of the historian, w ritten long after
the living interest in the facts lie records shall have
passed away. The progress of the War iu the East occu
pies a large space in their pages. Every movement is
closely criticised, w bother of friend or of foe, and all
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from
the Crimea and from tho Baltic in Blackwood's Magazine,
from two of its most papular contributors, give a more
intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent tho throe 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, as they ever
have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con
sidered indispensable to the scholar and the professional
man. w hile to the intelligent reader of every class they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the cur
rent literature of tho day, throughout the world, than
can he possibly obtained from any other source.
