Contemporary Literature of England , America , Germany , and France . [ On the 31 st mst . " The Westminster Review , which has failed under so many managements , under its new management promises to be no failure at all . Good healthy blood stirs m it , and we have little 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 . Ine notion of treating quarterly , in four final articles the general contemporary literature of England , America , Germany and France is very good ; the articles are well done , and they place the reader of the Review in possession of a kind of information wMch 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 menu well as able writers wUl take wadually a sure hold of the public , and will be bought by ihWwho heretofore have been satisfied to read it as it came to them borrowed from the circulating library .
