The wide-spread fame of these splendid periodi cals renders it needless to say much in their praise. - As literary organs, they stand far in advance of any works of a similar stamp now published, while the political complexion of each is marked by a dignity, candor, and forbearance, not often found in works of a party character. They embrace the views of the three great parties in England—Tory, Whig and Radical—Black wood and the London Quarterly are Tory ; the Edinburgh Review, Whig; and the Westminster Review Radi cal. The North British Review is more of a reli gious character, having been originally edited by Dr. Chalmers, and now, since his death, being conducted by his son-in-law, Dr. Hanna, associated with Sir David Brewster. Its literary character is of the very highest order. The 1 Westminster,’ though re printed under that title only, is published in England under the title of the Foreign Cinarterly and West minster, it being in fact a union o( the two Reviews formerly published and reprinted under separate ti bles. it has, therefore, the advantage by this corabi tation, of uniting in one work the best features of both as heretofore issued. The above Periodicals are reprinted in New York, immediately on their arrival by the British steamers, in a beautiful clear type, on fine white paper,and are faithful copies of the originals, Blackwood’s Magazine being an exact faosirnile of the Edinburgh edition. TERMS. For any one of the four Reviews, per annum •• S 3 00 For any two '* “ S ••S5 00 For any three “ “ “ 700 For all four of the Reviews, “ •• 8 00 For Blackwood’s Magazine “ •• 3 00 For Blackwood and three Reviews, “ •• 900 For Blackwood and the four Reviews “ ..10 0 n Payments to be made in all cases in advance. EARLY COPIES. Our late arrangement with the British publishers of Blackwood’s Magazine secures to us early sheets of that work, by which we are enabled to place the entire number in the hands of subscribers before any portion of it can be reprinted in any of the American journals. For this and other advantages secured to our subscribers, we pay so large a consideration, that we may be compelled to raise the price of the maga zine. Something may therefore be gained by sub scribing early. ♦** Remittances and communications should be al ways addressed, post-paid or franked, to the pub lishers.

VOL XIII—Ko. ht) CHRONICLE & SENTINEL POETRY AND MISCELL ANT. From the Louisville Journal. The Dew By C. S. Percival. When the sombre shades of even Gather o’er the darkened earth, Silently the dew of Heaven Through the dim air wanders forth ; And with holy ministration, Hasting on its angel wings, Life to fainting vegetation, As a gentle spirit, brings. Then as glance the rays of morning Oe’r the new-awakened earth, Smiling flowers her lap adorning, Tothe night dew owe their birth; And the scented mead rejoices, Bathing still in fragrantdew; While a thousand happy voices, Breathe for it their songs anew. When the sombre shades of sorrow Cloud the heart and dim the eye, Silent thus, ere dawns the morrow, Palls the dew of sympathy ; And a holy benediction Bearing on its balmy wings, Hope and courage in affliction To the fainting soul it brings. Then, as o’er the waking spirit Wakes anew the joyons morn, Flowers of hope and gladness cheer it, From the dew of kindness born. And the heart is like a meadow Freshened by the fragrant, dew, Where from sunshine and from shadow Choral songs are heard anew. Murfresborough, Term. Australia.—The world *eems to have for gotten that a continent in the Southern ocean has been colonized with an offshoot of the An glo-Saxon stock- Yet while this has been al most unnoticed, the peopling of that vast region has steadily progressed, and England, by settling its savage wilds with her surplus population, has insensibly established what bids fair to be a new and formidable nation, having the same manners and customs, language and institutions, as the mother country and her great rival, the U nited States. Ihe population is now said to be between two and three hun dred thousand, and it possesses large and well built cities, and displays all the features of a young and vigorous nation. What is to be the futurity of this embryo, there can be but little donbt. The mother her self is conscious that she is breeding up children which will one day overshadow her, and eclipse the measure of her own glory.— True, the young nation now growing up in Australia is of impure origin, sprung from the crime and depravity of the home British popu lation. Yet was not such the origin of the far famed eternal city which still sits in ghostly gloom upon her hills, brooding over her de parted greatness —and was Rome any the worse for having sprung from the refugees of all the surrounding nations ? Os late, great efforts have been making in England, to direct to Australia the vast tide of emigration which has been flowing from her own shores to America. Numerous compa nies have been formed with this object, and al , though the attractions possessed by the United '! States are too great in the eyes of the emigra ting millions, to be rivalled successfully by the new land under British rule, still these efforts will not be without their effect. Australia will r be benefited thereby, and while receiving into her bosom this industrious and useful popula tion, she will also receive all their aspirations for liberty, their hatred of the oppressions un der which they have suffered, and from which they have fled, and their energetic determina tion to struggle against them. This species of population is essentially republican, and the London Time* has lately frankly confessed this important fact. It foresees the ultimate end of British rule in Australia and admits that it, and all other colonies of Great Britain must, per force, become republics and set up business on their account in imitation of their big brother Jonathan, who has made out so well at it. It needs no prophetic power to discover in the dim future the nations which shall rule the civilized world. The sagacity of John Bull has already perceived that his son, whom he is rearing in the Southern ocean, is likely to prove too much for his father. When Australia shall have grown up to the stature of a nation, and the Western republic occupies the conti nent, what will become of the importance of old feudal Europe, and who will govern the empire of the seas? Calvin’s Church at Geneva.—A traveller in Switzerland writes from Geneva, “that the old Gothic church were Calvin preached—the very sound-board which re-echoed the discus sions of the Catholic monks with the reform ers, is still in a green old age It is now the prin cipal church in Geneva, and 12 pastors of the city officiate in its pulpits by turns. The Great Bridge at Wheeling, Va. — The people of Wheeling are going on rapidly with the construction of their vast bridge across the Ohio river, the span of which will be 1010 feet and its height above low water 97 ' feet, to ayoid obstructing the steamboats. It will cost about a quarter of a million of dol lars. Fine Watches Clocks, Jewelry and silver goods. THOMAS W.
