It is attached U > no sect or party , the great and distinguishing- leaturc being a thorough mid determined opposition to Gciitrnhiatioii , and an unflinching and persevering advocacy of the great principle of Loctl Sclf-Uovernineirt . The speeches of the gr « ut Magyar chief , Koasuth , will draw increased attention to this vital subject . The oilier important principle * of the paper are : —Abolition of the Excise uiul Standing Army ; Monetary Reform , based on the 1 ' rinciple of a S « lf-Regulating Currency ; the Gradual and Final Extinction of the Niiiioual Debt ; Direct Legislation , as developed by Rittinghausen ; the Enfranchisement of Woman ; I ' lirliiinienlury Kcforin , founded on the People ' s Charter , & c .

AKD v ; ILLUSTRATED CATALOGUE OV THE 1 GHEAT EXHIBITION OP THE WORKS OF INDUSTRY OF ALL NATIONS , 1851 " A complete literary type of the original to which it r ^ r . opening up source * . of amusement or instruction to even lut ' I ot taste , and proving- equally at home on the drawWr table , handled by fashionable ' dilettanti in the study S ? j by the scholar or the man of seance , at the merchant ' * diskT a book of constant reference—in the factory , the foundry 2 the workshop , as a repertoire for designs , and as ™ hl' 2 gestive for future progress . A more pleasant work to dive in ?" ; during an idle hour can hardly be imagined , for 4 er v r it atf eUtion . » -r , m ^? S ** " a " 8 t " king ' ™ ?» ' " The work is without a precedent in the annals of literatureand when we regard the circumstances cf difficulty that sur rounded the task of itt execution , the praise bestowed on those who undertook it can scarcely be too great . The contractors in that enlarged spiiit which appears to have entered into all that belongs to the Exhibition , engaged men of reputation and authority in every department of science and manufacture to contribute such descriptive notes as should render the work eminently instructive . It thus contains a body of annotation . } which express the condition of human knowledge and the state of the world ' s industry in 1851 ; and is a document of the utmost importance , as a summary report of this vast international " stock-taking , " which no great library—nor any gentleman ' s library , of those who aim at the collection of litcraty standards—can hereafter be without . It is not a work of a day , a month , or a year ; it is for all time . Centuries hence it will be referred to as authority on the condition to which man had arrived 'at the period . of its publication . It is at oiice a great Trades' Directory , informing us whore we are to seek for any particular kind of manufacture—a Natural History , recording the localities of almost every variety of native production—and a Cyclopaedia , describing how far science lias ministered to the necessities of humanity , by what efforts the crude products of the earth have been converted into articles of utility or made the medium of that refined expression which belongs to the province of creative art . The Exhibition has lived its allotted time , ami died ; but this Catalogue is the sum of the thoughts and truths to which it has given birth , and which form the intellectual ground whereon the generations that we are not to Bee must build . . . . It will be evident from what has been already stated that a more important contribution to a commercial country than the ' Official , Descriptive , and Illustrated Catalogue of the Great Exhibition ' could scarcely have been offered . ... All possible means have been taken to render it worthy of the wonderful gathering of which it is the permanent record . —Atheeneum .
