Great reduction in the price of the latter publication.
L. Scott & Cos., New York, continue to publish the fob
lowing leading British Periodicals, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative).
THE EDINGBUIIGH REVIEW (Whig).
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church).
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
fIMIK great, and important events —Religious, Political,
A and Military—now agitating the nations of the Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and valuo
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between the hastily written news items, crude
speculations, and Hying rumors of the newspaper, and
the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after
the living interest in the facts he records slioli 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 or of foe, and all
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from
the Crimea and from the Baltic In Blackwood's Magazine,
from two of its most pupular contributors, givo a more
intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent the three great, politi
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, and Radieal,—
but politics forms only 0110 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, white 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
ran lie possibly obtained from any other source.
