biographer of Dr. Arnold, with great skill. Mr. Stanley brings out into
strong relief the more attractive parts of his father's character, and
suggests the best defence--namely, the consistent uprightness and perfect
sincerity of his motives--for the more questionable policy, on some
memorable occasions, of the bishop."

"The substance of Mr. Poole's valuable work appeared originally in a

devoted further time and attention to the subject; and it may safely be
asserted that in their present amended and enlarged form, they are among
the most important contributions that have yet been made to the study of
Egyptian Chronology and history. We are indebted for the publication of
the present valuable work to the liberality of the Duke of
Northumberland, whose warm and generous support of literature and art
deserves our grateful acknowledgments."

LAVENGRO;
THE SCHOLAR--THE GIPSY--AND THE PRIEST.
BY GEORGE BORROW, ESQ.
Author of "The Bible in Spain," "The Gipsies of Spain," &c. &c.
With a Portrait. 3 Vols. Post 8vo. 30_s._
"We trust our extracts have exhibited enough of one at least of the many
aspects of 'Lavengro' to convince the reader that neither is it a work to
be read cursorily, nor to be handled easily, by any of the silver-fork
school of critics. These volumes are indeed replete with life, with earnest
sympathy for all genuine workers, with profound insight into the wants and
wishes of the poor and uneducated, and a lofty disdain of the conventional
'shams' and pretensions which fetter the spirits or impede the energies of
mankind. Nor is a feeling for the beautiful less conspicuous in its pages.
A quiet market-town, environed by green meadows or bosomed in tufted trees;
an old mercantile and ecclesiastical city, with a history stretching from
the times of the Caesars to the times of George III.; the treeless plain,
the broad river, the holt, the dingle, the blacksmith's forge, are all in
their turn sketched freely and vividly by Mr. Borrow's pencil. In his
portraitures of ruder life he is unsurpassed; a dog-fight, a prize-fight,
an ale-house kitchen, Greenwich Fair, a savage group of wandering tinkers,
are delineated in words as Wilkie or Hogarth might have depicted them in
colours. We are embarrassed by the riches spread before us.
"We have not touched upon the gipsy scenes in 'Lavengro' because in any
work of Mr. Borrow's these will naturally be the first to draw the reader's
attention. Neither have we aimed at abridging or forestalling any portions
of a book which has a panoramic unity of its own, and of which scarcely a
page is without its proper interest. If we have succeeded in persuading our
readers to regard Mr. Borrow as partly an historian and partly as a poet,
as well as to look for more in his volumes than mere excitement or
amusement, our purpose is attained, and we may securely commend him to the
goodly company he will find therein. 'Lavengro,' however, is not concluded;
a fourth volume will explain and gather up much of what is now somewhat
obscure and fragmentary, and impart a more definite character to the
philological and physiological hints comprised in those now before us.
Enough, indeed, and more than enough, is written to prove that the author
possesses, in no ordinary measure, 'the vision and the faculty divine' for
discerning and discriminating what is noble in man and what is beautiful in
nature. We trust Mr. Borrow will speedily bring forth the remaining acts of
his 'dream of adventure,' and with good heart and hope pursue his way
rejoicing, regardless of the misconceptions or misrepresentations of
critics who judge through a mist of conventionalities, and who themselves,
whether travelled or untravelled, have not, like Lavengro, grappled with
the deeper thoughts and veracities of human life."--_Tait's Magazine._

ENGLAND IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY:
POLITICAL, SOCIAL, AND INDUSTRIAL.
BY WILLIAM JOHNSTON, ESQ.
2 Vols. Post 8vo. 18_s._
"This book is a somewhat undigested mass of valuable matter, interspersed
occasionally with reflections of much interest and observations of
considerable originality. The author is unquestionably a man of talent; he
writes with vigour and smartness; he has taken pains in the collection of
most of his materials; and his statistics are arranged with great care and
managed with unusual skill. In this point he is much superior to his
prototype and apparent master, Mr. Alison."
"Mr. Johnston's work is readable and well-written, abounding with
information of many kinds."--_Edinburgh Review._

MEMOIRS OF ROBERT PLUMER WARD.
WITH HIS CORRESPONDENCE, DIARIES, AND LITERARY REMAINS.
BY THE HON. EDMUND PHIPPS.
With Portrait. 2 Vols. 8vo. 28_s._
"The most valuable portions of Mr. Ward's diary are its illustrations of
the character of the Duke of Wellington. The great soldier, then in the
flush of his military triumph, was also in the prime of his power and
activity; and Mr. Ward gives us an insight into his business habits, his
method of arguing public questions, his ready resource and never-tiring
energy, which possesses occasionally a striking interest."--_Examiner._

THE MILITARY EVENTS IN ITALY, 1848-9.
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN.
BY THE RIGHT HON. THE EARL OF ELLESMERE.
With a Map. Post 8vo. 9_s._
"Military history is, as the Earl of Ellesmere declares, a rare article in
English literature; and, therefore, he thought that the most authentic
extant narrative of the operations implied in the title page of the present
book, written by an impartial Swiss, would not be an unwelcome addition to
the British library. His lordship has judged rightly; the work of which he
has presented a version is a worthy labour, and the events to which it
relates are of the last importance. It is written with judgment, and has
been translated with care."--_Morning Chronicle._

A TRANSPORT VOYAGE TO THE MAURITIUS,

"This book reminds us of one of those pleasant fellows, whom one sometimes
meets with in company, who has an anecdote or a story ready a propos of
everything, whose fund of amusing tales is inexhaustible, and who rattling
on from one thing to another, will keep a whole table in a roar, or a whole
drawing-room in high glee. Even such is our author. He gossips on and on,
telling now of one adventure, and then of another; his volume is a perfect
chaos of racy reminiscences graphically told."--_John Bull._

LIVES OF THE CHIEF JUSTICES OF ENGLAND.
FROM THE NORMAN CONQUEST TO THE DEATH OF LORD MANSFIELD.
BY LORD CHIEF JUSTICE CAMPBELL.
2 Vols. 8vo. 30_s._
"There is, indeed, in Lord Campbell's works much instruction; his subjects
have been so happily selected, that it was scarcely possible that there
should not be. An eminent lawyer and statesman could not write the lives of
great statesmen and lawyers without interweaving curious information, and
suggesting valuable principles of judgment and useful practical maxims: but
it is not for these that his works will be read. Their principal merit is
their easy animated flow of interesting narrative. No one possesses better
than Lord Campbell the art of telling a story: of passing over what is
commonplace; of merely suggesting what may be inferred; of explaining what
is obscure; and of placing in strong light the details of what is
interesting."--_Edinburgh Review._
* * * * *
THE FORTY-FIVE.
BEING A NARRATIVE OF THE REBELLION IN SCOTLAND OF 1745;
BY LORD MAHON.
Post 8vo. 3_s._
"This is a very comprehensive and lively sketch of the famous 'Rebellion'
so vividly remembered, even after the lapse of a century, by the people of
Scotland. The incidents of that unfortunate invasion from first to last,
from the landing of Charles (July 25th) in Borrodale, with the 'seven men
of Moidart,' to the fatal battle of Culloden (16th April, 1746), are
minutely and faithfully recorded; but we have no doubt the reader will be
most and mainly interested in the personal history and adventures of the
Pretender himself. The character of the Prince is admirably drawn, and
generously vindicated from the calumnies heaped upon him by his adversaries
after his fall. It will perhaps surprise some to learn, that he was so
illiterate as scarcely to be master of the most common elements of
education. 'His letters,' says Lord Mahon, 'which I have seen among the
Stuart papers, are written in a large, rude, rambling hand, like a
schoolboy's. In spelling they are still more deficient.' We recommend Lord
Mahon's narrative as a very agreeable sketch of a stirring and eventful
period."--_Edinburgh Advertiser._

KUGLER'S HANDBOOK ILLUSTRATED.
THE SCHOOLS OF PAINTING IN ITALY.
FROM THE EARLIEST TIMES.
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY A LADY, AND EDITED WITH NOTES
BY SIR CHARLES LOCK EASTLAKE,
President of the Royal Academy.
_A New Edition._ 2 Vols. Post 8vo. 24_s._
"We cannot leave this subject (_Christian Art, its present state and its
prospects_), without reverting to Sir C. Eastlake's edition of Kugler's
Handbook of Painting, not for the sake of reviewing it,--for it is a work
now of established reputation,--but for the purpose of recommending it as
being upon the whole by far the best manual we are acquainted with, for
every one who, without the opportunity of foreign and particularly Italian
travel, desires to make a real study of art. Its method, its chronological
arrangement, and its generally judicious criticism, make it most
instructive to a learner. We may add that the present edition is enlarged
just where the former one needed enlargement, and the Handbook is now far
more satisfactory as to the early religious schools than it was before. The
edition is beautifully got up, and so profusely and judiciously illustrated
by one hundred woodcuts drawn by Scharf, that it would be next to
impossible to speak too highly in its praise, even were its matter less
valuable and important than it is."--_The Ecclesiastic._

"To those who take either a religious or a philosophical interest in the

clear, succinct, sensible, and flowing account. The work also possesses a
living animation arising from the author's knowledge of the country and the
people."--_Spectator._

A MANUAL OF ELEMENTARY GEOLOGY;

AS ILLUSTRATED BY ITS GEOLOGICAL MONUMENTS.
BY SIR CHARLES LYELL, F.R.S., P.G.S.
Third Edition, thoroughly revised,
and illustrated with 520 Woodcuts.
8vo. 12_s._
"The production of one of our most eminent geologists in an age of many.
Though styled a 'third edition,' it is in reality a new book. This could
not be otherwise if the task were well done; for the science of which Sir
Charles Lyell treats is assuming new aspects every year. It is continually
advancing and ever growing. As it advances, its steps become firmer and
surer; as it grows, its framework becomes more compact, and its
organization more perfect. They who take up the hammer to follow it must
toil with unflagging tread to keep pace with its onward progress. If they
lag behind, they can scarcely hope to overtake. None among its votaries has
marked each movement more minutely, or weighed its value and purpose more
judiciously, than the distinguished author of this Manual. He has indeed
done his task well, and both the beginner and the experienced investigator
will find his book an invaluable guide and companion."--_Literary Gazette._

MODERN DOMESTIC COOKERY.
FOUNDED UPON PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMY AND PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE.
AND ADAPTED FOR THE USE OF PRIVATE FAMILIES.
With 100 Woodcuts. Post 8vo. 6_s._
"The advanced state of cookery having rendered Mrs. Rundell's work
obsolete, the publisher has caused it to be remodelled and improved to
such an extent as to give it a claim to the title of an original
production. The receipts of the late Miss Emma Roberts have been revised
and added to the work; and it has had the advantage of being subjected
besides to the careful inspection of a 'professional gentleman'--Economy
combined with excellence--is the aim, end, and object which it cannot be
doubted will be obtained if its prescriptions are attended to. It is
fuller than the former _Domestic Cookery_, of which it is an improved
and amended edition--it is more simple and comprehensible in its
language; it contains several diagrams not to be found in its
predecessor; and it possesses various minor qualities, which increase
its value in a tenfold degree, and make it, to say the least, equal to
any other book of the kind in the English language."--_Observer._

The translation itself has been undertaken from a conviction of the
entire inadequacy of any existing version to the wants of the time. The
gross unfaithfulness of Beloe, and the extreme unpleasantness of his
style, render his translation completely insufficient in an age which
dislikes affectation and requires accuracy; while the only other
complete English versions which exist are at once too close to the
original to be perused with any pleasure by the general reader, and also
defective in respect of scholarship.

Handbook of Chronology.
ALPHABETICALLY ARRANGED TO FACILITATE REFERENCE.
One Volume, 8vo.
This work will enable the student or general reader, or man of the world,
to put his finger at once upon the date of any particular event by means of
a careful _alphabetical_ classified arrangement of the various elaborate
chronologies which have been given to the world. It has been prepared with
such care as will render it--it is hoped--a trustworthy book of reference.
It contains the dates of the events which mark the rise, progress, decline,
and fall of states; and the changes in the fortunes of nations. Alliances,
wars, battles, sieges, and treaties of peace; geographical discoveries, the
settlement of colonies, and their subsequent story;--with all occurrences
of general historic interest--are recorded in it. It further includes the
years of the leading incidents in the lives of men eminent for worth,
knowledge, rank, or fame; and of the writings, &c., &c., by which they are
chiefly known; discoveries in every department of science; and inventions
and improvements, mechanical, social, domestic, and economical.
