They occupy a midd.e ground between the hastily written news items, crude speculations, and flying rumors of the newspaper, and the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after the living interest in tho facts lie records shall have passed away. The progress of the War iu the East occu pies a large space iu their pages. 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 iu 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 fouud. These Periodicals ably represent the three great politi cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, aud Radical, — but politics forms only one feature of their character.— As Organs of tlie most profound writers on Mclence, Lite rature, Morality, and Religion, they stand, as they ever have stood, unrivalled In the world of letters, being con sklered indispensable to the scholar and the prolessiouul man, while to tho intelligent reader of every class they furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of tlie cui rent literature of tlie day, throughout tlie world, than enn lie possibly obtained from any other source.
