THE MAGAZINES.

The only Magazine of the better class which has reached us, fur June, is the Knickerbocker, which has an unusually good table of contents. It contains a long and well-written criticism on the young English poetry, from the pen of Mr. Bristed, a grandson of John Jacob Astor's, of whose scholarship we have often heard most extravagant reports. The Knickerbocker also contains an original poem by Tennyson, which the editor received from the same gentleman.

The Blackwood for May has been issued by Leonard Scott & Co., Fulton street.
