% The Revue des Deux Mundeo has been formed
for the purpose of establishing an intercourse in
the intellectual pursuits the most followed between
distinguished men of Europe and America. It is
proposed in this collection to rive a prominent
place to the affairs of the American Union, to the
Inborn of its politicians, and to the Literary and
Scientific publication* of it* Authors. The Revue
des Deux Monde* Row makes a public appeal to
American Authors and Editors, by sending to it,
through Mr, Putnam, of New York, a copy of each
Of their publications. Tke Revue is in a better position
than any other organ in Europe to serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New
World, which has as Editors and Contributors the
most eminent political, scientific, and literary men
of France. Many of its contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.
Each number of the Revue, in addition to its articles
signed by the first names of France, contains, under
the title of" Chronique de la Quinsaine," a historical
summary of the principal events of the political
world, which will certainly be, for the American,
the moot faithful picture of the European movement*.

THE KNICKERBOCKER MAGAZINE.
Edited by Lewi a Gay lord Clark.
THIS is pronounced, by the press of America and
England, 'the beat magazine in America.' It
has nearly reached its thirty-fourth volume, and in
its list of upward, of a hundred contributor! are found
the names of every distinguished writer, male and
female, in America, with several equally prominent
of Great Britain, Turkey, Sweden, etc. A new
volume, containing a superb engraving, a portrait
qf the editor engraved by Chbnby, from a painting
by Elliott, will commence on the first day of July,
1M9. The following notices of the Kniokbbsockeb
are from the American and English press, and from
American and British writers of distinction.
'Tbb Kmickbhbockbb.?The last number ot this
venerable and widely-popular periodical appears
upon entirely new and beautiful type, in all its departments;
and in its rich and diversified contents,
continues to vindicate its reputation as the most
agreeable and entertaining Magazine published in I
the United States. When we first started the old I
'New Yorker,' our friend Clash had preceded us I
as Bditor of the Kmcxaaaooua about a twelvemonth:
it has now reached an agegreatly beyond
that of anv American Monthly; a fact which literally
'speaks volumes' in praise of the manner in
which the work has been conducted. No number
of the K. has ever been issued under Clabk's supervision
that did not bear indubitable evidence of editorial
care, and anxious thought, and well-directed
labor rmstamped upon its pages. We have known
no monthly, of this country or Europe, so thoroughly
edited, in the strictest sense of tne term.'?Neva
York Daily Tribune.
'Mathematicians tell us of certain curves called
a*ymptot*?, whose peculiarity is always to approach
each other, and yet, even when infinitely extended,
never to intersect. The Knickehbockeb, which
has reached an age for a Magazine much greater
than a hundred years for a man, and only to be attained
by a more marvellous miracle, has perpetually
approached the highest possible point ol interest
ana excellence; and yet it seeuis to have an excel*ior,
for each number seems better than that which
Went before. How it is done our friend Clabe may
understand?but it is a sealed mystery to us. There
is no publication in the United States that hassoattractive
or popular a feature as the Editor'* table of
the KNICKESBOcxaa.'?New York Courier and Enquirer.
'We regard it as the very best work of its kind in
the Union.'?St. Atban'* (ra.) Journal.
'Its contents are as invariably good as its appearance
is punctual.'?William Cullen Bbyant, m
the Now York Evening Poot.
Its articles are worthy of Blackwood's palmiest
days. The Editor'* 'libit is in Mr. Clabk's happiest
vein; varied and racy in a remarkable degree.'
+?Nkvo York Commercial Advertiser.
'The Knickerbocker seems to increase in attraction
as it advances in age. it exhibits s .monthly
variety of contributions unsurpassed in number or
ability.'?National Intelligencer.
'The Knickerbocker is oqe of the most valuable
mamxines of the dav. and outstriDS all comoetitiou
in the higher walks of lierature.'?Albany Argue.
"The Editor's Table alone is worth the price of 1
the work. It is not a periodical to be lightly glanced
over and thrown by, but it forms a library book to
save and re-read. A act of the Knickeebocker,
bound up in volumes, on the shelves of one of our
popular libraries, is more consulted {so the librarian
has often told us) than any other similar work.'?
Bottom Daily Tranacnpt.
President Everett, qf Harford College, late
Minuter to England.?'1 peruse the Kncsuiocui
with high gratification. It seems to me to be of an
order of merit auite above the average of the periodicals
of this class, English or American.'
Hon. J. K. Paulding,late Secretary qf the Navy.?
'The manner in which the Knickerbocker is con- I
ducted, and the great merit of its contributors, place
it in the highest rank of periodicals.'
Paor. Longvellow, Cambridge Univereity.?'The j
Knickerbocker stands high in this quarter. It is
superior to most of the English magazines, and well
deserves its large list of subscribers."
Bon. Rossst M. Charlton, Georgia.?'The
Knickerbocker is a work which requires no puffing;
and 1 shall always feel that I aw conferring a
favor on those to whom I recommend it.'
Tux London Examines.?'This very clever Magazine
is the pleasanteet periodical in the United
Stales. Its articles, which are numerous and short,
various and interesting,are well worthy of imitation
by our Magazines on this side of the Atlantic.'
London Morning Chronicle.? Judging from
the numbers before us, we are inclined to consider
! this the best of all the Aiiiersan literary periodicals.
I Its contents are highly interesting, instructive, and 1
I amusing.' J
The London Litekaby Gazette.?'The taste <
i and talent which the knickeeboceee displays are <
| highly creditable to American writers, ana very 1
I agreeable for English readers.' '
London Metropolitan Monthly Magazine.? I
We have read several number* of this talented pe- I
nodical, and rejoiced in tiiem. They would do '
credit to any country or to any state of civilisation 1
to which humanity has yet arrived.' I
London Athinsim.?'Fruin a very clever <
Monthly Magazine, 'The Knicksrrockbe.' of New I
Vork, we copy the following spirited story,' etc.
Sis Edward Bulwbr Lvtton.?'The K.mcrri- i
rocker is the best American periodical I have yet '
Seen. I take pleasure in enclosing you an article '
Which was penned expressly for your work.'
Cmarlbs Dickens, esq.?'I read the Knicker- <
ocwkb with very gTCRt pleasure: it ia indeed a |
I most various and entertaining1 periodical. It affords '
; me pleasure to contribute to the pages of a work '
which numbers among its regular correspondents (
such writers as Mr. lavrws.' t
Rev. Dr. Dice Scotland.?'I have read a good
many of the articles in the frw numbers of the '
Knkkebsocebb which you sent me, and find them 1
to power great merit. Some of its papers, it is |
true, were too light for my serious turn of mind; j
yet the whole appears well calculatad to gratify the
tastes of the mass of readers. * 1
Capt. F. Mabryatt.?'You make an excellent 1
Magazine?spirited, various, and original. I hope
my 'Moontktne' will reflect no discredit upon tne t
good company in which it will find itself.'
