[74] This humorous sketch originally appeared (July, 1829) in
_Sharpe's London Magazine_, a brief-lived monthly, which only reached
its third number. The substance of it was afterwards incorporated
into the novel of "Gilbert Gurney," where the name of Scropps was
altered to Firkins. See the paper entitled "Lord Wenables Again" (p.
304).

[76] Mr. Barham gives a different version of this hoax, and makes
Terry, not Mathews, the coadjutor in it.--_Ed._
[77] This reminds us of Byron's jest on the Trinity, in _Don Juan_:
"I devoutly wish'd the three were four,
On purpose to believe so much the more."
[78] The name of _Belvoir_ is thus pronounced.--_Ed._

Beautifully bound in a novel style, small 4to, 16_s._
=THE LADY OF THE LAKE.= By Sir WALTER
SCOTT. With numerous fine Illustrations.
_"The Lady of the Lake" has been chosen as a subject for
illustration, not only for its picturesque features, which invite
in an unusual degree the sympathetic treatment of the artist, but
also for the romantic personal interest which the story inspires,
and which gives it a close hold on the affections of all readers.
So thorough is the verisimilitude of the poem, and so accurate
are its descriptions of scenery, that the events which it
describes are accepted as absolute history in the region where
the scene is laid; and no true Highlander looks with tolerance
on anyone who ventures to doubt their actual occurrence. It has
happened, therefore, that the romantic poem in which the genius
of Scott has united and harmonised the legends of Loch Katrine
and the Trosachs has become the best Handbook to the Scottish
Lake-region. It is believed that the present Illustrated Edition
will be a welcome souvenir to thousands of travellers who have
visited that beautiful region._
_In order to secure accuracy as well as freshness of treatment,
the Publishers commissioned_ Mr. A. V. S. ANTHONY, _under
whose supervision this Edition has been executed, to visit the
Scottish Highlands and make sketches on the spot. Nearly every
scene of the poem was personally visited and sketched by him,
and these Sketches have afforded the basis of the landscapes
offered in this book. These landscapes, for obvious reasons,
depict the Scenery as it is at the present time; while the
Costumes, Weapons, and other accessories of the figure-pieces are
of the period of the action of the poem, being carefully studied
from contemporary pictures and descriptions, or from later
authoritative works._

=Birthday Flowers=: Their Language and Legends.
By W. J. GORDON. Illust. in Colours by VIOLA BOUGHTON.
[_Shortly._
_This sumptuous and elegant Birthday Book is the first in which
our floral treasures have been laid under really effective
contribution. It has been produced at immense cost, and in it
we have one of the most accurate and beautiful Masterpieces
of Chromo-lithography yet issued from the press. Within its
sixty-four fully-coloured pages, each lithographed in fourteen
printings, we have a noble Series of lovely Bouquets, depicting
in all their wealth of grace and beauty the most famous of our
field and garden jewels; as a different flower is taken for
every day in the year, there are no fewer than three hundred and
sixty-six separate selections. The legends and the sentiments
ascribed to each of the chosen blossoms have formed the theme of
some fifteen hundred lines of Original Verse, and there is thus
given one of the fullest "Languages of Flowers" in existence,
and the only one which is free from duplicates. An unusual
amount of thought and labour has been expended on the work, and
the publishers congratulate themselves that in a literary and
artistic sense the result has been fully commensurate thereto.
Such a collection of flowers, so complete and compact, has never
before been offered. As a Book of Birthdays and Family Records
it is unsurpassed. The addition of the scientific names to the
minutely accurate delineations of plants renders its pages
invaluable to the botanist and every lover of leaf and bloom.
The legends which form the burden of its verse will delight the
scholar and archæologist and all students of song and folk-lore;
while the copious floral meanings, completer than in any other
"language of flowers" yet available, will render it the constant
companion and most treasured gift of a much more numerous
section of the community--the whole world of Sweethearts of the
English-speaking nations._
