The Magazines, with the brilliant exception of the Court Magazine,
are by no means pictorial. Fraser has a characteristic full-length sketch of William Roscoe ; the British, an excellent lithograph of the old Church of St. Martin, at Canterbury ; the Boudoir contains a very pretty little view of Northfleet, drawn and engraved in a superior style, in addition to the Fashions, which it gives in common with the Ladies' Museum, &e. The portrait in the Court Magazine is a beautiful engraving, from a good picture by MORTON, of Lady Charlotte Butler.
