THE PEOPLE OF ENGLAND.

Perhaps I may be excused for noticing the forthcoming octavo edition of

“THE SPORTS AND PASTIMES OF ENGLAND,”--a work of very curious research

and remarkable information, written and published in quarto by the late

MR. JOSEPH STRUTT.

THE OCTAVO EDITION will be printed in a superior manner, on fine paper,

with at least 140 Engravings. It will be published in Monthly Parts,

price One Shilling each, and each part, on an average, will contain

fourteen engravings. Above half of the drawings and engravings are

already executed, and other means are taken to secure the punctual

appearance of the work. The printer is already engaged on it, and the

first part will certainly appear before the first of February.
