The Democratic Review for March.

This is altogether a very excellent number; it is, in fact, the best that we have seen of this magazine. The first article, on Tyler, which we hope is from the pen of the editor, beause [[because]] it will induce us to read his political speculations hereafter, if it be, is the best paper in it; and may be read with pleasure by any one, without regard to political prejudices, merely for the easy strength of the style and the confident impudence (we know of no other word that will exactly express our meaning) of its tone. The paper on Fiction by Major Davezac we are very happy to commend, because we have seen some of the Major's Essays that we could not approve with a clear conscience. The account of the four Presidents of Texas is highly interesting, and the other papers are both readable and profitable.
