<■ The accounts which we find here 

 of Castillian, Portuguese, and Swedish 

 poetry, are extremely well executed, and 

 are articles not for a single perusal, but 

 such as we should sludv and refer to. 

 In the last-mentioned of these, the 

 scene from Stagnelius' tragedy" of the 

 'Martyrs' is admirably translated, and is 

 worthy of the pen of Milman, of whose 

 dramatic poems it strongly reminds Ub. »

« The Foreign Review, just publislied 



by Black , Young and Young , is ile- 

 cidedly one of the cleverest periodi-

 auxiliaries in monthly and weekly pu- 

 blications, would be a serious defect in a 

 work that is intended lo make us accptaint- 

 ed with foreign literalure. The editor of 

 the Foreign Review has been fully aware 

 of this, and the principal dil\erence bol- 

 ween his work and the Foreign Quar- 

 terly is, that in the farmer we find alter 

 a succession of long reviews by .skilful 

 wrilers, short notices of books, in ad- 

 dition to a list of the most important 

 works printed on the continent. This is 

 certainly an improvement which must
