In this department are given thort-u h' and note eiltiri.-ms of sti the most Important Books as they are issued, pointing out thir chi-f ehiir-icterUi c, and indicating their moral tendencies, thus keeping its readers infornird of all new publications which deserve their attention.'; It olturiconiains : -Co'inus Intelligence of A fairs the Literary -.

Id addition to the above there is a de parttnent of Mioelanea lor readinc of an enter taining character, can fully selected from rew books and the ablest reviews, snd a weekly eolle tion oi 'otes and Qui ties, which contains a great vatiety of curious and valuable information. It is confident! belii ved that a journal such aa the CRITERION cannot fail to have a good tflV-ci upwn our national Iit rature, and to some extent upon ur ntitfoo.il cha meter. It will be found es pecially valuable in directing the attention of youth t works of real exreKer.ce, and encouraging an appreciation for valuable reading, which is being rapidly destroyed by the circulation of superficial and sophistical books. To the reading man the literary int lligence alone must render it very dc blr ible; and to all who wish to promote an improve ment in taste, the tneoutagement of merit, and an uncompromising condemnation of vicious style, mock sentiment", and evil principles, such sn enter prise cannot at least, should not be indifferent. To members of Historical, I.i:eray and Scienti fic Societies, Lye ami and Debating Clubs, the subjects discussed in this pnper wili at all times pnve of pecu'iar interest, and it is the design of the editors to thoroughly ennvass from time to time those imports nt philosophical qnm-tions which agitate all inquiring minds, correcting false theo ries, andenconrnefn? profit:thle investigition.
