BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory). f|MIE groat aud important events —Religious, Political, 1 and Military—now agitating the 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, mid flying rumors of the newspaper, and the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after the living interest in the facts lie records shall have passed away. The progress of tlie War in tlie East occu pies a large space in tlieir pages. Every movement is closely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all short-coinings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from tlie Crimea and from the Baltic in Blackwood’s Magazine, from two of its most popular contributors, give a more intelligible nml reliable account of the movements of the great liolligerents that can elsewhere be found. These Periodicals ably represent the three great pollti cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, and Radical,— but politics forms only oue feature of their character.— As Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Lite rature, Morality, and Religion, they staud, as they ever have stood, unrtvullcd in the world of letters, being con sidered Indispensable to the scholar and the professional man, whiio to the intelligent reader of every class they furnish a iuoro correct and satisfactory record of the cur rent literature of tlie day, throughout tlio world, tbun con tie possibly obtained from any other spurce.
