Tin: Xortii British Review, (Free Chureli.) 4. The Westminster Review, (Liberal.) 5. Bi.an;\v<ioi>'s EniNUVRUii Ma?a7.ixk, (Tory.) Tlie great ami important events?Religions, Political, aiul Military?now afjitatin-j the nil lions nl the Old World, give to these Publieations an interest and value tliey never before possessed. They occupy a middle ground between the liuBtily written news-it.-nis, crude speculations, and Hying rumors of the newspaper, and the ponderous Tonio of the historian, written long afier the living interest in tlxe facts he records shall have passed away. The progress of the War in the liast occupies a large space in their pages, livery movement is closely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from the CKIMMA and from the BALTIC in Blackwood's Magazine, from two of its most popular contributors, give a more intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the great belligerents than cau elsewhere be found. These Periodicals ably represent the three great political parties of Great Britain?Whig, Tory, and Uadical,?but politics forms only one feature of their character. As Organs of the most profouml writers on Science, Literature. Morality, and Religion, they stand as they ever hiivo stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being considered indispcilsuhln to the scholar and the professional man, while to the intelligent reader of every class they furnish a more eorrcct and satisfactory recortl of the current literature of tbo day, throughout the world, than can be possibly obtained from any other source.

Its columns will contain the news of the day, foreign and domestic: and accurate review of the markets: a synopsis of the proceedings of Congress during its session : articles ou agriculture, and interesting miscellaneous mutter. A portion of it will be devoted to literature, original and sclectcd. It is the intention of the undersigned to make Tlte Sun an agreeablo aud instructive visitor, dispelling error aud ignorance, and diffusing genial and healthy influcuces wherever iti rays may penetrate. It will be political, but liberal, owing no slavish or servile allegiance to parties or politicians. It will advocate measures, not men; and will labor only for the success of principles. In a word, it will be the organ of uo man or clique. It will be American in tone and sentiment, yet repudiating nothing foreign, because it is ao; believing and maintaining that the good, the wise, tlio honoiable, and useful, are indigenous to no clime, nor the property of any peculiar people, but are the common right of all. Its aim will be to advanee, reform and improve; not to crash, depress and destroy. It will hold up to light and reflection, the ruthless and savage deeds and practioes of the times; defend pure morals in all the social relations of life; and scout at all attempts at scribbling blackguardism. It will be progressive^ but not recklessly so. ... Entertaining fixed and decided views on the mat questions of tbe day, it will vindicate the notfor, protect the rights, and defend the cause, and the institutions of the South.
