L. Scott ft Cos., New York, continue to publish the fol lowing leading British Periodicals, viz: THE LONDON QUARTERLY (Conservative). THE KDINUBURGU REVIEW (Whig). THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Flee Church). TUF, WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal). BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory). 11HE great and important events —Religious, Political, . and Military—now agitating the nations of the Old World, give to those Publications an Interest and value they never before possessed. They occupy a middle ground between the hastily written news items, crude speculations, and Hying rumors of tho newspaper, and the ponderous Tome of tho historian, written long after tho living interest in the facts he records shall have passed away. The progress of the War In the East occu pies a large space in their puges. Every movement is closely criticised, whether ot 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 popular contributors, give a more intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the great belligerents that can elsewhere be found. These Periodicals ably represent tlie three great pollti col parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, aud 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, os they ever have stood, unrivalled lu the world of letters, being con sidered indispensable to the scholar and tho 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 tho world, than can be possibly obtained from any other source. Early Coplea. The receipt of Advance Sheets from the British publish ers gives additional value to these Reprints, especially during tho present exciting state of European affairs, in asmuch as they can now be placed in the hands of sub scribers about as soon as the original editions.
