ous building, planned by the best architectu
ral talent, and erected in the most substantial

tees have spared neither pains nor expense to

fIMIK great and important events —Religious, Political,
i and Military—now afiltntlng the nations of the Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. They occupy a middle
ground between the hastily written news items, crude
speculations, mid dying rumors of the newspaper, aud
the ponderous Toun- of the historian, written long after
the living Interest in the facts he records shall hare
passed away. The progress of the War in tho East occu
pies a Imp* space in their pages. Every movement is
c losely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all
short-eominps fearlessly pointed out. The letters from
the Crimea and from the Baltic in Blackwood’s Magazine,
from two of its must papular contributors, give a more
Intelligible and reliable account of the movements of thi
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
These Periodicals ably represent the three great politi
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, amt Radical,—
but polities forms only one feature of tlieir eharacter.—
As Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Lite
rature, Morality, and Religion, they stand, as they evut
have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con
aidered indispensable to the scholar and the professional
man. while to the intelligent reader of every class they
furnish a more correct aud satisfactory record of the cui -
rent literature of the day, throughout tliu world, that;
can I*** possibly obtained from any other source.
