Contemporary Literature of England , America , Germany , and Prance . [ O « the 31 st hist . " The Westminster Revieio , which haa failed under So many managements , under its new management promises to be no failure at all . Good healthy blood stirs in it , and we liavelittle doubt that it "will not only win its way to as high a point in public estimation as it held in its best days , but that more practical results will follow , and it will be found to sell . With equal ability , we observe a larger and more catholic spirit . The notion of treating quarterly , ir f four final articles the general contemporary literature of England , America , Germany , and Prance , is very good ; the articles are well done , and theyplace the reader of the Eeview in possession of * a kind of information which he wants about the literature of the day . Let us hope , then , that our old friend the Westminster , brought as it now is into complete harmony with the spirit of the time , and having its pages furnished by thinking men as well as able writers , will take gradually a sure " hold of the public , and will be bought by those who heretofore have been satisfied to read it as it came to them borrowed from -the circulating library .
