Sacred Scenes and Characters —By the Rev-
J. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered a companion to the
" Sacred Mountains,' by the same author.
Its object is to illustrate and "render more
life-like" the sacred writings. It is not the
author's design to supersede the Bible. But
his wish is excite a solicitude to obtain, and
to become intimately acquainted and per
fectly familiar with its history, doctrines and
laws; to know its truth to imbibe its spirit,
feel its power, and partake of its salvation;
in a word-, to prize in sorre measure as it
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be
yond price. We predict for it a circulation
far beyond any of the author's former works.

Rambles and Sketches —By llev. J. T. Head
ley. We have not for a long time sat down
to a book with more pleasing anticipations,
or found those anticipations more fully re
alized, than in the perusal of the work be
fore us, aDd we know it will be hailed with
gratification by the many admirers of the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshals" was, perhaps, as popular and
found at least as many enthusiastic readers
as Any book that can be mentioned. We
think the Rambles and Sketches are des
tined to be as popular at least as any of his
previously published works. There is not a
dull chapter in the work, tilled as it is with
"an infinite variety." The author has am
ple room and verge enough for the employ
ment of his fine talents to great advantage
and most successfully has ho accomplislied
the task. The biographical sketch of the
author is interesting and "well considered,"
and adds much to the value of the book,
which is got up in a very neat and attractive
style by the publisher.— Sec Portland Trans

Blackwood's Magazine,
AND THE
; BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS.
1 /"hWING lo the late revolutions and count
i among the nations of Eu
j rope, which have followed each other in
I such quick succession, and of which "the
\ end is not yet,'' the leading periodicals of
j Great Britain have become infested with' a
! degree of interest heretofore unknown.
I They octoupy a middle ground between tho
| hasty, disjointed, aud necessarily imperfect
j records ot rite newspapers, and the elaborate
, nnd ponderovis treaties id bo furnished by
; the historian at a future day. Whoever
| reads these periodical, obtains a correct and
connected account of all the important po
| litical events of the Old World, as they oc
: cut, and learns the various conclusion*
drawn from them by the leading spirita of
I the age. The American publishers there
fore deem it proper to call renewed alten-
I lion to the works they publish, end the very
j low pricbs At which they are offered to sub
! scribers. The following is their list, viz":
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW, and
| BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals are contained tho
views, moderately lltdugh clearly ami firmly
expressed, of the three greatest parties in
England—Tory, Whig, arid Radical ,
'■ Blackvvddd" and the '•London Qnaileilv"
are Tory, the "Edinburgh Kevieyv" Whig,
and the "Westminster Review"' Liberal.
The "North British Review" owes its estab
lishment to the last great ecclesiastical move
ment in Scotland, dud is not ultra in its
views on tiny dne Of the grand departments
of human knowledge; It was originally ed
ited by Dr. Chalmers, and now, since his
death, is conducted by his son-in-law, Dr-
Ilanna, associated with Sir David Brewster.
Its literary character is of the very highest
| order. The "Westminster," though repnnl
| ed under that title only, is published in Eng.
j land Under the title of the "Fnreigh Quar
terly and Westminster," it hdirtg iii fact it
1 union of the two Review* formerly publish
|ed and reprinted under separate titles. h
has, therefore, the advantage, by this com
bination, of uniting in one' work the best
features of both, a* heretofore issued.
The above Periodicals ate reprinted in
New York, immediately on their arrival by
tko British stetlmbrs; in a beautiful clear
type, on fine white paper, And are faithful
copies ot tlte driginals—Blackwood's Maga
zine being an exact fic simile ot tho Edin
burgh iidttiOn.
