Blackwood’s Magazine and 4ke
British Quarterly Reviews.
OWING to the late revolutions and counter-rev
olutions among the nations of Europe, which
have followed each other in such quick succession,
aad of which “the end is not yet,” the leading pe
riodicals of Great Britain have become,' invested
with a degree of interest hitherto unknown. They
occupy a middle ground between the hasty, disjoin
ted, and necessarily imperfect,records ofthenews
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous treatises
to be furnished by the historian at a future day.
■ j 6Ver reat^s *h eBe periodicals- 1 -obtains a correct
and connected account of all ih? important political
events of the old world, as they occur, and learns
the various conclusions drawn from them by the
leading spirits of the age. The American Publish
ers therefore deem it proper to call renewed atten
tion to the works they republish anl the very low
prices at which they are offered to subscribers.
The following is their list, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY - REVIEW
THE EDINGBURG REVIEW.
THE WESTMINSTER ’REVIEW
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW and
MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals are contained the views
nioderately, though clearly and firmly expressed!
of the three great parties in England—Tory, Whig
amL.Radical—“ Blackwood” and the “London
are Tory; the “Edinburgh Review”
Whig; and the “ Westminter Review” Liberal.—
The “ North British Review” owes its establish
ment to the last great ecclesiastical movement in
Scotland, and is not ultra in its views on any one
of the grand departments of human knowledge: it
was originally edited by Dr. Chalmers, and now
since his death, is conducted by his son-in-law, Dr*
Hanna, associated with Sir David Brewster. Its
literary character is of the very highest order. The
‘ Westminster,” though reprinted under that title
only, is published in England underHhe title of the
‘/Foreign Quarterly & Westminster,” it being in fact
a union of the two Reviews formerly published and
reprinted under separate titles. It has, therelore
the advantage by combination, of uniting in one
work the best features of both as heretofore issued.
T.he above Periodicals are reprinted in New
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 facsimile of
the Edinburgh edition.

6 TTAVING for a number of years past given
> A-*- undivided;**tantion to the Book Buai
nllB frowns departments* wholesale
and retail; we have learned several important
* u ' are herewith communicated for
*“® benefit of our friends and customers, and the
public generally.
- Our experience has tadght us, that Booksel
lers, whose stock is made up, mainly, of coac-
Mtssioir books, can never sell them at as low
rates, as those who buy their stock at the Trade
Sales, or in the regular wholesale way. The
reason is obvious. The publisher, who furnishes
Books on commission; to-compensate himself
for the outlay of capital—the wear and tear of
Books, and the certain depreciation, in value of
almost every kind of Books, after they have
lain upon the shelves a certain length of time;
is compelled to add at least 25 per cent to the
price of his publications. Under these circam
stances, how is the Bokseller to sustain himself!
The answer is a very simple one. He must/adr
25 per cent to his prices, which the purchased is
compelled to pay !
Again, our experience has taught us, that of
all old stock, old books are decidedly the most
unprofitable. No other stock depreciates so
rapidly in value, and the Bookseller who permits
his Stock to lie on bis shelves longer than a
twelve months, loses not only the interest of his
capital but at least 40 per cent of its original
cost. From this it necesarily appears, that the
largest amount of old Books on the shelves,
does hot always indicate where the cheapest
Books are to be had.
Our plan is, to buy where Books are always
b^ u ght cheapest— to keep no more books on our
shelves than. are absolutely necessary to meet
the wants of the public— to keep on. hand al
ways a few copies, of every new publication of
merit—to hold ourselves ready to fill any order
at two days notice—to sell our books, not at
commission prices, but at such rates as those
only can, who buy as we do, at the Trade Sales,
and lor cask, never expecting our customers to
pay the interest on our dead stock.
We therefore most cordially invite an exami
nation of our stock and prices; holding our
selves firmly bound to the public, to furnish
books, or any thing in our line as cheap to say
the iesat, as any other house in the city.

ing selected The People’s Book Store as the
Grand Depot for his Holiday Books, and other

der hearted old chap, has followed in the loot-
Pteps of his -‘illustrious predecessor’’—Kriss

BOOK STORE as the Great Emporium for his
ELEGANT VALENTINES.
The old codger knew perfectly well that there
was no other place in the city where his mer
chandize could be displayud to so much advan
tage, and where his patrons would be so politely
accommodated. In consideration of these all
important facts, he imparted to us the invaluable
secret that those who bought from him could
always sell his merchandize at least 50 per cent,
cheaper than those who took them on commis
sion. We accordingly purchased a most mag
nificent assortment, which we are' prepared to
sell at the very lowest rates, Wholesale and
Ketail, so that those who desire SUPERB
VALETINES, serious, sentimental and comic,
are invited to call.
We hare also a large assortment of VALEN

THE WAR ENDED!!
S. P. Townsend abandoned the Field!—Old Dr. Jacob
. Townsend, vindicated by the people !
SP. Townsend has at last given up the manu
* facture of any more Sarsaparilla, having dis
posed of his business to some strangers. Thus the
claim to originality and other pretensions, fall to
the ground. He voluntarily abandons them in thus
evading the issue before the public, by disposing of
his trade and going into retirement. The fact that
he was NO PHYSICIAN, NO CHEMIST, the occu

a WORKER on RAILROADS, CANALS CHOP
pmo WOOD, SAW-LOGS, DOCK-STICKS, &c

D r ??w?°i. TT ?'? S ’ thereb >’ DECEIVING and INJU
RING the sick, and destroying goods demonstrates
beyond all reasoning or gainsaying, the fallacy of
his pretensions,-and the baseless fabric of his
c aims. Hereafter, it is to be sent out to the peo-
P r\ by n B T e STR ;f NG ERS, Yet bearing the name
of S. P. Townsend. We have been informed that
these Strangers intend to print on the labels, the
name of some chemist, in order to redeem if pos
sible its bad character of souring, fermenting and
bursting bottles. ®
Let the people fullv understand that no be-vam
ping , no new botching, no pre-eixino of chemists’
names or any other folly will redeem S. P Town
send’s souring compound from public odium, unless
it is made entirely different from its present char
ncter ; and if they do this, it will become another
article of Sarsaparilla, and thev might as well oive
it another name first as last. It should be called
the “Strangers’ Sarsaparilla,” and not'S. P. Town
send’s But -if there is no alteration, the people
may still expect the same old souring, fermenting
rootbeer stuff, as formerly made by Ruel Clapp th!
carpenter.
We have felt it our duty to inform the public of
Ute true position of this matter, that Old Dk. Jacod
I OWNSEND’S Saesapabilla may not be confounded
with the souring article. In conclusion, we would
remark that some months ago S. P. Townsend left
his old stand in Fulton street, a first rate store, and
sat himself down only a few doors below us in
Nassau street, the motives and objects of which
we leave others to judge. We understand these
strangers who have taken up S. P’s business intend
to remain there. Such conduct needs no comment.
We shall move from Nassau street in the spring.
and Wj 11 then see if these strangers will follow
us as S. P. did.
