A MASTER KEY TO THE MYSTERIES OF ANCIENT AND MODERN SCIENCE

AND THEOLOGY. BY H. P. BLAVATSKY, Corresponding Secretary of

the Theosophical Society. _2 vols. Royal 8vo, about 1,500

pages, cloth, $7.50._

The recent revival of interest in Philology and Archæology, resulting

from the labors of BUNSEN, LAYARD, HIGGINS, MÜLLER, DR. SCHLIEMANN,

and others, has created a great demand for works upon Eastern topics.

To the scholar and the specialist, to the philologist and the

archæologist, this work will be a most valuable acquisition, aiding

them in their labors and giving to them the only clue to the

labyrinth of confusion in which they are involved. To the general

reader it will be especially attractive because of its fascinating

style and pleasing arrangement, presenting a constant variety of racy

anecdote, pithy thought, sound scholarship, and vivid description.

Mme. BLAVATSKY possesses the happy gift of versatility in an eminent

degree, and her style is varied to suit her theme with a graceful

ease refreshing to the reader, who is led without weariness from

page to page. The author has accomplished her task with ability, and

has conferred upon all a precious boon, whose benefit the scientist

as well as the religionist, the specialist as well as the general

reader, will not be slow to recognize.

Bible of Humanity;

By JULES MICHELET, author of “The History of France,”

“Priests, Women, and Families,” “L’Amour,” etc. Translated

from the French by V. CALFA. _1 vol. 8vo, cloth, $3.00._

“His _Bible of Humanity_ is a large epic in prose. The artist-historian,

in the manner of inspired men and prophets, sings the evolution of

mankind. There is no doubt that he throws brilliant glimpses of light

on the long course of events and works which he unfolds; but at the

same time he carries away the reader with such rapid flight of

imagination as almost to make him giddy.”--_Larousse’s Universal

Dictionary_.

NEW EDITION OF HIGGINS’ GREAT WORK.

The Anacalypsis;

An attempt to draw aside the Veil of the Saïtic Isis;

or, an Inquiry into the Origin of Languages, Nations, and

Religions. By GODFREY HIGGINS, Esq. Vol. I., 8vo, cloth,

$4.50. To be completed in four volumes.

The extreme rarity, and consequent high price of the “Anacalypsis”

has hitherto placed it beyond the reach of many scholars and

students. The new edition is issued in a much more convenient form,

and sold at less than one-sixth of the price of the original.

The powerful though rather dogmatic logic, and the profound learning

of the author, give the work a singular importance; and in a thinking

age, when many things formerly considered truths are passing away

into the shadows of tradition, the student of comparative mythology

and the origin of religion and languages will look upon Higgins’

Anacalypsis as his guide and luminary through the darkness of dawning

science.

Serpent and Siva Worship

And Mythology in Central America, Africa, and Asia; and The

Origin of Serpent Worship. Two Treatises. By HYDE CLARKE and

C. STANILAND WAKE, M.A.I. Edited by Alexander Wilder, M.D.

8vo, paper cover, 50 cents.

“Serpent lore is the literature of the earliest times, and every

discovery in ethnical science is adding to our knowledge of this

feature of the race. These two eminent anthropologists suggest

some very interesting speculations, which seem confirmed by modern

research, and will be examined with avidity by scholars.”

_SPLENDID NEW VOLUME OF ETCHINGS._

Examples of Contemporary Art.

_Etchings from Representative Works of Living English and

Foreign Artists_, viz.:--FORTUNY, JULES BRETON, BERNIER, E.

BURNE JONES, F. LEIGHTON, GONZALEZ, MACBETH, G. F. WATTS,

ORCHARDSON, VAN MARCKE, PACZKA, CHAPLIN, etc., etc. Executed

by WALTNER, MARTIAL, CHAMPOLLION, LALAUZE, HÉDOUIN, CHAUVEL,

GREUX, etc. One large folio volume, vellum cloth, gilt, $12.00.

“Apart from its value as a graphic account of the two great foreign

Exhibitions of Art, this elegant volume deserves special attention

from the value of its text, furnishing as it does a general record

of the artistic achievements of the past year. They are, in fact,

careful reviews of the representative Exhibitions from which subjects

of the illustrations have been chosen, and their purpose is to

supply, within moderate limits, a coherent account of the recent

progress of the Arts in England and France.”

_INTERESTING NEW WORK ON BLAKE._

William Blake.

_Etchings from his Works_, embracing many of the rarest

subjects executed by that unique Artist. By W. BELL SCOTT.

Proofs on India paper. Folio, half cloth, $8.00.

“Such is the plan and moral part of the author’s invention; the

technical part and the execution of the artist, though to be examined

by other principles and addressed to a narrower circle, equally claim

approbation, sometimes excite our wonder, and not seldom our fears,

when we see him play on the very verge of legitimate invention;

but wildness so picturesque in itself, so often redeemed by taste,

simplicity, and elegance, what child of fancy--what artist--would

wish to discharge? The groups and single figures on their own

basis, abstracted from the general composition and considered

without attention to the plan, frequently exhibit those genuine and

unaffected attitudes--those simple graces--which nature and the heart

alone can dictate, and only an eye inspired by both discover. _Every

class of artists, in every stage of their progress or attainments,

from the student to the finished master, and from the contriver of

ornament to the painter of history, will find here materials of art

and hints of improvement._”--_Cromek._

_NEW VOLUME BY PAUL LACROIX._

commentaires, par M. l’Abbé Salmon du diocèse de Paris.

Handsomely printed and illustrated, with 240 beautiful

engravings on wood from the celebrated designs of Schnorr of

Carolsfeld. A handsome volume, 4to, _paper, uncut, $6.00_; or,

_full turkey morocco, extra, gilt leaves, $12.00_.

Musical Instruments, Sound, &c.

Les Harmonies du Son et les Instruments de Musique, par I.

Rambosson. _Most profusely illustrated with upwards of 200

beautiful engravings on wood, and five chromo-lithographic

plates._ 1 large vol. 8vo, pp. 582, _paper uncut, $4.00; or

half red morocco, extra, gilt edges, $6.00_.

An entirely new work, in which the subject is treated in a most

exhaustive manner. The book is divided into four general heads,

the _first_ devoted to the History of Music, and its influence on

Physique and Morals, the Influence of Music on Intelligence, on the

Sentiments, Locomotion, etc. The _second_, Acoustics, or production

and propagation of sound, including the most recent discoveries in

this branch. The _third_, on the History of Musical Instruments. The

_fourth_, on the Voice, etc.

The Apophthegms of Erasmus.

Translated into English by Nicholas Udall. Literally

reprinted from the scarce Edition of 1564. _Beautifully

printed on heavy laid paper, front. 8vo, new cloth, uncut._

Only 250 copies, each of which is numbered and attested by

autograph signature of the editor. $7.50.

“This is a pleasant gossipy book, full of wise saws, if not of modern

instances. It may be considered one of the earliest English jest

books. The wit in it is not as startling as fireworks, but there is

a good deal of grave, pleasant humor, and many of those touches of

nature which make the whole world kin. When Nicholas Udall undertook

to translate this work he was the right man in the right place.

Probably no old English book so abounds with colloquialisms and

idiomatic expressions. It is very valuable on that account. This

reprint has been made from the second edition, that of 1562. The

reprint is literal; the only difference being that, to make it easier

for the general reader, the contractions have been filled in, and the

Greek quotations, which were exceedingly incorrect, have been, in

most cases, put right.”

_CAXTON COMMEMORATION VOLUME._

The Dictes and Sayings of the Philosophers.

The First Book printed by Caxton in England (printed at

the Almonry at Westminster in the year 1477). 1 vol., small

folio. Printed in exact facsimile of the _editio princeps_, on

paper manufactured expressly for the work, and having all the

peculiarities of the original. 1 vol., small folio. $10.00.

The printing of this unique work has been executed by a photographic

process which reproduces infallibly all the characteristics of the

original work, and the binding is a careful reproduction of that of

Caxton’s day.

This memorial volume is rendered still more interesting, and to the

connoisseur more valuable, by an Introduction by William Blades,

Esq., author of the Life and Typography of William Caxton, giving a

short, historical account of the book, the circumstances that led to

its publication, and its position among the works printed by Caxton.

It is believed that the publication of this work will, apart from

its value to collectors, be generally acceptable as representing the

first work issued from the press in England, and as illustrating the

state of the art of printing in its infancy.

“Really an ‘exhaustive effort’ to collect the whole of the

poems.”--_Edinburgh Courant._

_Edited, with Critical Introduction and Notes, by_ JOHN

CHURTON COLLINS. 2 vols. 8vo, cloth. $6.00. _Large paper_

(only 50 printed). $12.00.

“So much of the dramatic fire and vigor which form the special

characteristics of the Elizabethan dramatists is discernable in Cyril

Tourneur, that it is satisfactory to see his works collected....

If on the one hand he may claim to have enriched the drama with

characters that may compare with the best in Chapman or Marston,

he has also in realism gone beyond Webster.... Mr. Collins has

discharged completely his editorial duties, and his notes display a

considerable amount of reading.”--ATHENÆUM.

_OFFERED AT A GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICE._

An Analysis of Religious Belief.

By VISCOUNT AMBERLEY. “Ye shall know the truth, and the

truth shall make you free.” 2 large, handsomely printed vols.

demy 8vo, new cloth, uncut. $8.00 (_usual price $15.00_).

“Let them (the readers) remember that while he assails much which

they reckon unassailable, he does so in what to him is the cause

of goodness, nobleness, love, truth, and of the mental progress of

mankind.”--_Extract front Lady Russell’s Preface._

“He has bequeathed to the world a collection of interesting facts

for others to make use of. It is a museum of antiquities, relics,

and curiosities. All of the religions of the world are here jostling

one another in picturesque confusion, like the figures in a

masquerade.”--_Times._

“This work has more than one claim on the reader’s attention. Its

intrinsic interest is considerable.”--_Spectator._

“No one will fail during its perusal to be deeply interested, and, what

is more, powerfully stimulated to independent thought.”--_Examiner._

Polychromatic Ornament.

100 PLATES IN GOLD, SILVER, AND COLORS, _comprising upwards

of 2,000 specimens of the styles of Ancient, Oriental, and

Mediæval Art_, and including the Renaissance, and XVIIth and

XVIIIth centuries, selected and arranged for practical use by

A. Racinet, with Explanatory Text, and a general introduction.

Folio, cloth, gilt edges. $40.00.

Monsieur Racinet is well known, both in France and in this country,

as the author of the principal designs in those magnificent works,

“Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance” and “Les Arts Somptuaires.” He is

therefore peculiarly well fitted to grapple with the difficulties of

so intricate a subject, and it will be found that he has discharged

his task in a manner to deserve general approval and admiration.

His happy choice of subjects, all of them taken from _originals_,

his ingenious grouping of them in harmonious forms, his wonderful

accuracy in drawing, and his perfect fidelity of color are only

equalled by the profound knowledge which has enabled him to combine

so vast a collection in historical order, and yet in a classical form.

Keramic Art of Japan.

LA CÉRAMIQUE JAPONAISE. FRENCH EDITION, traduit par M.

P. Louiby. _Containing Sixty-three Plates_ (_Thirty-five of

which are in Gold and Colors_), and nearly 200 pages of Text,

with numerous Wood Engravings printed in Colors; the whole

being produced from original Japanese works of the greatest

beauty, and representing the entire range of Japanese Keramic

Art, Ancient and Modern. By G. A. AUDSLEY and J. L. BOWES,

of Liverpool. Containing a Comprehensive Introductory Essay

upon Japanese Art in all its various branches, illustrated

by thirteen Photo-Lithographic and Autotype Plates, and

numerous Wood Engraving, printed in colors. Also, a concise

Dissertation on Keramic Productions of Japan, from the

earliest records up to the present day; with sectional

articles on the Pottery and Porcelain of the various provinces

of the Empire in which manufactories exist, fully illustrated

by thirty-five plates, superbly printed in full colors and

gold, and fifteen plates in autotype. To be supplied in seven

parts, folio, at $10.00 each. Parts I. and II. now ready.

N. B.--_Parts not sold separately._

No one who has examined the Art productions of Japan can have

failed to observe the great beauty of the Keramic Wares of the

country, and the refined and educated feeling everywhere displayed

in their decoration. Their general artistic excellence, and the

skilful rendering of natural objects they usually present, have long

commended them to the attention of the artists of Europe--long,

indeed, before they were sought after by collectors; and it is not

too much to say that many of our well-known artists have shown by

their works their appreciation of Japanese drawing and coloring.

The Royal Masonic Cyclopædia

Of History, Rites, Symbolism, and Biography. By KENNETH R.

H. MACKENZIE. 1 vol. demy 8vo, cloth (pp. 768), $7.00.

The most complete and valuable work of reference that has ever been

presented to the Craft.

“The task of the Editor has been admirably performed, and there can

be no question the work will be a valuable addition to every Masonic

library.”--_Freemason’s Chronicle._

“The Editor has lavished much reading and labor on his subject.”--

_Sunday Times._

“A deeply-learned work for the benefit of Freemasons.”--_Publishers’

Circular._

“Your new work is excellent.”--Bro. W. R. WOODMAN, M.D., G.S.B.

“Evidences a considerable amount of hard work, alike in research and

study, ... and we can honestly and sincerely say we wish fraternally

all success to the Royal Masonic Cyclopædia.”--_Freemason._

Wilson’s American Ornithology:

Or, Natural History of the Birds of the United States; with

the Continuation by PRINCE CHARLES LUCIAN BONAPARTE. NEW AND

ENLARGED EDITION, =_completed by the insertion of above One

Hundred Birds omitted in the original work_=, and illustrated

by valuable Notes and a life of the Author by Sir WILLIAM

JARDINE. Three Vols., 8vo, with a Portrait of WILSON, and

103 Plates, exhibiting nearly Four Hundred figures of Birds,

accurately engraved and beautifully colored, cloth extra,

gilt top, $18.00. Half smooth morocco, gilt top, $20.00. Half

morocco extra, gilt top, $25.00. Full tree calf extra, gilt or

marbled edges, $30.00.

_A few copies have been printed on_ LARGE PAPER. Imperial

8vo size, 3 vols., half morocco, gilt top, $40.00.

One of the cheapest books ever offered to the American public. The

old edition, not nearly so complete as the present, has always

readily brought from $50.00 to $60.00 per copy.

“The History of American Birds, by Alexander Wilson, is equal in

elegance to the most distinguished of our own splendid works on

Ornithology.”--CUVIER.

“With an enthusiasm never excelled, this extraordinary man penetrated

through the vast territories of the United States, undeterred by

forests or swamps, for the sole purpose of describing the native

birds.”--LORD BROUGHAM.

“By the mere force of native genius, and of delight in nature, he

became, without knowing it a good, a great writer.”--_Blackwood’s

Magazine._

“All his pencil or pen has touched is established incontestably; by

the plate, description, and history he has always determined his bird

so obviously as to defy criticism, and prevent future mistake.... We

may add, without hesitation, that such a work as he has published is

still a desideratum in Europe.”--CHARLES LUCIAN BONAPARTE.

COMPLETION OF PLANCHÉ’S GREAT WORK.

Cyclopædia of Costume;

Or, A Dictionary of Dress--Regal, Ecclesiastical, Civil,

and Military--from the Earliest Period in England to the reign

of George the Third, including Notices of Contemporaneous

Fashions on the Continent. By J. R. PLANCHÉ, Somerset Herald.

Profusely illustrated by fourteen full-page colored plates,

some heightened with gold, and many hundred others throughout

the text. 1 vol. 4to, white vellum cloth, blue edges, unique

style, $20.00. Green vellum cloth, gilt top, $20.00. Half

morocco, extra, gilt top, $25.00. Full morocco, extra, very

elegant, $37.50.

“There is no subject connected with dress with which ‘Somerset

Herald’ is not as familiar as ordinary men are with the ordinary

themes of everyday life. The gathered knowledge of many years is

placed before the world in this his latest work, and there will

exist no other work on the subject half so valuable. The numerous

illustrations are all effective--for their accuracy the author is

responsible: they are well drawn and well engraved, and, while

indispensable to a proper comprehension of the text, are satisfactory

as works of art.”--_Art Journal._

“These numbers of a Cyclopædia of Ancient and Modern Costume give

promise that the work will be one of the most perfect works ever

published upon the subject. The illustrations are numerous and

excellent, and would, even without the letter-press, render the work

an invaluable book of reference for information as to costumes for

fancy balls and character quadrilles.... Beautifully printed and

superbly illustrated.”--_Standard._

“Those who know how useful is Fairholt’s brief and necessarily

imperfect glossary will be able to appreciate the much greater

advantages promised by Mr. Planché’s book.”--_Athenæum._

UNIFORM IN STYLE WITH LÜBKE’S AND MRS. JAMESON’S ART WORKS.

Monumental Christianity;

Or, the Art and Symbolism of the Primitive Church, as

Witnesses and Teachers of the one Catholic Faith and Practice.

By JOHN P. LUNDY, Presbyter. 1 vol. demy 4to. Beautifully

printed on superior paper, with over 200 illustrations

throughout the text, and numerous large folding plates. Cloth,

gilt top, $7.50. Half morocco, extra, gilt top, $10.00. Full

morocco, extra, or tree calf, $15.00.

This is a presentation of the facts and verities of Christianity from

the earliest monuments and contemporary literature. These include

the paintings, sculptures, sarcophagi, glasses, lamps, seal-rings,

and inscriptions of the Christian Catacombs and elsewhere, as well

as the mosaics of the earliest Christian churches. Many of these

monuments are evidently of Pagan origin, as are also the symbols; and

the author has drawn largely from the ancient religions of India,

Chaldea, Persia, Egypt, Etruria, Greece, and Rome, believing that

they all contained germs of religious truths which it is the province

of Christianity to preserve, develop, and embody in a purer system.

The Apostles’ Creed is exhibited, with its parallel or counterpart,

article by article, in the different systems thus brought under

review.

The book is profusely illustrated, and many of the monuments

presented in facsimile were studied on the spot by the author, and

several are specimens obtained in foreign travel. This is one of

the most valuable contributions to ecclesiastical and archæological

literature. The revival of Oriental learning, both in Europe and

America, has created a demand for such publications, but no one has

occupied the field which Dr. Lundy has chosen. The Expositions which

he has made of the symbols and mysteries are thorough without being

exhaustive; and he has carefully excluded a world of collateral

matter, that the attention might not be diverted from the main object

of the work. Those who may not altogether adopt his conclusions will

nevertheless find the information which he has imparted most valuable

and interesting.

“As a contribution to Church and general history, the exhaustive and

learned work of Dr. Lundy will be welcome to students and will take a

high place.”--_Church Journal._

“When, indeed, we say that from beginning to end this book will

certainly be found to possess a powerful interest to the careful

student, and that its influence for good cannot fail to be

considerable, we in nowise exaggerate its intrinsic merits. It is one

of the most valuable additions to our literature which the season has

produced.”--_New York Times._

The Epicurean;

A Tale, and ALCIPHRON; a Poem. By THOMAS MOORE. With

vignette illustrations on steel, by J. M. W. TURNER, R.A. 1

vol. 12mo. Handsomely printed on toned paper. Cloth, extra,

gilt top, $2.00. Tree calf extra, gilt edges, $4.50.

“Our sense of the beauties of this tale may be appreciated by the

acknowledgment that for insight into human nature, for poetical

thought, for grace, refinement, intellect, pathos, and sublimity,

we prize the Epicurean even above any other of the author’s works.

Indeed, although written in prose, this is a masterly poem, and will

forever rank as one of the most exquisite productions in English

literature.”--_Literary Gazette._

The Turner Gallery,

A SERIES OF SIXTY ENGRAVINGS, from the Works of J. M. W.

TURNER, R.A. With Biographical Sketch and Descriptive Text by

RALPH N. WORNUM, Keeper and Secretary of the National Gallery,

London. One volume, folio, INDIA PROOFS. Elegantly bound in

half Levant morocco, extra, gilt edges, $50.00. Full Levant

morocco, extra, very elegant, $75.00.

---- The same. Atlas folio. LARGE PAPER. _Artists’ Proofs._

Half morocco, extra, $110.00. Full Levant morocco, extra,

$165.00

THE TURNER GALLERY is already so well known to lovers of

art and to students of Turner, that, in announcing a reissue

of a limited number of copies of this important National

Work, little need be said by way of comment or introduction.

The Original Engravings have, for the first time, been

employed, instead of the electrotype plates hitherto used,

thus _securing impressions of more genuineness and brilliancy

than have yet been offered to the public_. Of the high-class

character of the Engravings themselves, and of the skill and

excellence with which they are executed, such well-known names

as JEENS, ARMYTAGE, WILLMORE, E. GOODALL, BRANDARD, WALLIS,

COUSENS, and MILLER, will be a sufficient guarantee.

_From the London Art Journal._

“A series of engravings from Turner’s finest pictures, and of a size

and equality commensurate with their importance, has not till now

been offered to the public.

“In selecting the subjects, the publisher has chosen judiciously.

Many of his grandest productions are in this series of Engravings,

and the ablest landscape engravers of the day have been employed

on the plates, among which are some that, we feel assured, Turner

himself would have been delighted to see. These _proof impressions_

constitute a volume of exceeding beauty, which deserves to find a

place in the library of every man of taste. The number of copies

printed is too limited for a wide circulation, but, on that account,

the rarity of the publication makes it the more valuable.

“It is not too much to affirm, that a more beautiful and worthy

tribute to the genius of the great painter does not exist, and is

not likely to exist at any future time.”

The attention of Collectors and Connoisseurs is particularly invited

to the above exceedingly choice volume; they should speedily avail

themselves of the opportunity of securing a copy at the low price at

which it is now offered.

_AN ENTIRELY NEW WORK ON COSTUME BY M. RACINET,

AUTHOR OF “POLYCHROMATIC ORNAMENT,” ETC._

Le Costume Historique.

_Illustrated with 500 Plates_, 300 of which are in Colors,

Gold and Silver, and 200 in Tinted Lithography (Camaïeu).

Executed in the finest style of the art, by Messrs. DIDOT &

CO., of Paris. Representing Authentic Examples of the Costumes

and Ornaments of all Times, among all Nations. With numerous

choice specimens of Furniture, Ornamental Metal Work, Glass,

Tiles, Textile Fabrics, Arms and Armor, Useful Domestic

Articles, Modes of Transport, etc. With explanatory Notices

and Historical Dissertations (in French). By M. A. RACINET,

author of “Polychromatic Ornament.” To be issued in 20 parts.

Small 4to (7½ × 8½ inches), $4.50 each. Folio, large paper

(11½ × 16 inches), in cloth portfolio, $9.00 each.

_NO ORDERS RECEIVED EXCEPT FOR THE COMPLETE WORK._

Each part will contain 25 plates, 15 in colors and 10 in tinted

Lithography. Parts 1, 2, and 3 are now ready for delivery. Upon

completion of the work, the price will be raised 25 per cent.

“The Messrs. Firmin Didot & Co., of Paris, a firm that disputes

with the house of Hachette & Co. the honor of supplying France

and the world with the most beautiful books at the cheapest rates

compatible with the greatest excellence in editing and ‘making,’

have recently published the beginning of a work which, by making

its appeal chiefly to the eye, is sure of a welcome in this

picture-loving age of ours. This is the HISTORY OF COSTUME, by A.

Racinet, well-known already to that portion of our public which is

interested in the decorative art by his illustrated work on ornament.

_L’Ornement Polychrome._--Racinet gives the word ‘costume’ almost

as wide a sweep of meaning as Viollet-le-Duc gives to furniture

in his now famous _Dictionnaire du Mobilier_. * * * * The field

surveyed consists not only of costumes proper, but of arms, armor,

drinking vessels, objects used in the service of the church, modes

of transport, harness, head-gear and modes of dressing the hair,

domestic interiors, and furniture in the ordinary acceptation of

the term. Each plate is to be accompanied with an explanatory text,

and there will be added an historical study, so that little will

be wanting to make this one of the completest encyclopædias of the

sort that has ever appeared. * * * * A charming taste has presided

over the selection of the subject, and the abundant learning that

has been brought to bear in the collection of illustrations, from so

wide a field of human action, is made to seem like play, so lightly

is it handled. * * * * No scientific arrangement is observed in the

order in which the subjects are presented. We have ancient Egypt,

Assyria, Rome, Greece, India, Europe in the middle ages, and from

the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries, Japan, Turkey, Syria,

Russia, and Poland, mixed up for the present, as if the work were

an illustrated report of a fancy ball; and, to most of us, the gay

parade as it rolls along is none the less pleasant for this want of

order.”--_Scribner’s Monthly._

“The name of Firmin Didot & Co., of Paris, is such a guarantee of

mechanical execution in a book, that it is sufficient to state

that _Le Costume Historique_ is fully on a par with any of the

former publications of this distinguished house. In addition to

its other features, this work has numerous illustrations, giving

restorations of Roman, Greek, and Egyptian interiors. In fact the

work is conceived on a large plan, and will be found most useful to

the artist. With such a book as a reference, some of the glaring

inconsistencies we still see from time to time on the stage,

where periods as to costume, some hundreds of years apart, are

terribly mixed up, might be prevented, and the unities saved. The

publishers have had the excellent idea of reducing the size of the

illustrations, so as to bring the price of this picture-cyclopædia

of the costume of the world within the means of the most prudent

book-buyer.”--_N. Y. Daily Times._

“A new work on costume, most expensive to the publishers and cheap to

the subscribers. Parts I., II., and III., with twenty-five pictures

in each, are ready. We have minutely examined them, and find them

worthy of great praise, both for general excellences of execution

and for the recondite and curious sources drawn upon--the latter

characteristic making the collector master of a great many pictorial

facts and illustrations whose original sources are hard even to see

and impossible to become possessed of.”--_Nation._

“This work is unquestionably the best work on its subject ever

offered to the public, and it will engage very general attention. In

shapeliness and convenience, too, it leaves nothing to be desired,

which cannot be said often of cyclopædias of costume. One can enjoy

the colors and contents of these ‘parts’ while lounging in a veranda

or rocking in a boudoir. It is not necessary to adjourn to a public

library and to an immovable chair.”--_Evening Post._

Ancient Art and Mythology.

The Symbolical Language of Ancient Art and Mythology.

An Inquiry. By RICHARD PAYNE KNIGHT, author of “Worship of

Priapus.” A new edition, with Introduction, Notes translated

into English, and a new and complete Index. By ALEXANDER

WILDER, M.D. 1 vol. 8vo, cloth, handsomely printed, $3.00.

“Not only do these explanations afford a key to the religion and

mythology of the ancients, but they also enable a more thorough

understanding of the canons and principles of art. It is well

known that the latter was closely allied to the other; so that the

symbolism of which the religious emblems and furniture consisted

likewise constituted the essentials of architectural style and

decoration, textile embellishments, as well as the arts of sculpture,

painting, and engraving. Mr. Knight has treated the subject with

rare erudition and ingenuity, and with such success that the labor

of those who come after him rather add to the results of his

investigations than replace them in important particulars. The labors

of Champollion, Bunsen, Layard, Bonomi, the Rawlinsons, and others,

comprise his deductions so remarkably as to dissipate whatever of his

assertions that appeared fanciful. Not only are the writings of Greek

and Roman authors now more easy to comprehend, but additional light

has been afforded to a correct understanding of the canon of the Holy

Scripture.”--_Extract from Editor’s Preface._

A SUPPLEMENTARY VOLUME TO “ANCIENT FAITHS.”

Ancient Faiths and Modern.

A Dissertation upon Worships, Legends, and Divinities in

Central and Western Asia, Europe, and Elsewhere, before the

Christian Era. Showing their Relations to Religious Customs

as they now exist. By THOMAS INMAN, M.D., author of “Ancient

Faiths Embodied in Ancient Names,” etc., etc. 1 vol. 8vo,

cloth, $5.00.

This work is most aptly expressed by the title, and the author, who

is one of our most learned and accomplished modern writers, has

done ample justice to his subject. He pries boldly into Bluebeard’s

closet, little recking whether he shall find a ghost, skeleton, or

a living being; and he tells us very bluntly and explicitly what

he has witnessed. Several years since he gave to the learned world

his treatise on _Ancient Faiths Embodied in Ancient Names_, in

which were disclosed the ideas underlying the old-world religions,

and the nature of hieroglyphical symbols employed in the East. The

present volume complements that work, elaborates more perfectly the

ideas there set forth, and traces their relations to the faiths,

worship, and religious dogmas of modern time. We are astonished to

find resemblances where it would be supposed that none would exist,

betraying either a similar origin or analogous modes of thinking and

reasoning among nations and peoples widely apart in race, country,

and period of history. The author is bold and often strong in his

expressions, from the intensity of his convictions, but this serves

to deepen the interest in his subject. Those who have read his former

works with advantage will greet this volume with a cordial welcome;

and all who desire to understand the original religions of mankind,

the ideas which lie back of the revelations of Holy Scripture, and

particularly, those who are not easily shocked when they come in

contact with sentiments with which they have not been familiar, will

find this book full of entertainment as well as of instruction. Dr.

Inman is working up a new mine of thought, and the lover of knowledge

will give his labor a welcome which few of our modern authors receive.

Dr. Inman’s Ancient Faiths.

Embodied in Ancient Names; or, an Attempt to trace the

Religious Belief, Sacred Rites, and Holy Emblems of certain

Nations, by an Interpretation of the Names given to Children

by Priestly Authority, or assumed by Prophets, Kings, and

Hierarchs. By THOMAS INMAN, M.D. Profusely illustrated with

Engravings on Wood. 2 vols., 8vo, cloth, $20.00.

“Dr. Inman’s present attempt to trace the religious belief, sacred

rites, and holy emblems of certain nations, has opened up to him

many hitherto unexplored fields of research, or, at least, fields

that have not been over-cultivated, and the result is a most curious

and miscellaneous harvest of facts. The ideas on priapism developed

in a former volume receive further extension in this. Dr. Inman, as

will be seen, does not fear to touch subjects usually considered

sacred in an independent manner, and some of the results at which he

has arrived are such as will undoubtedly startle, if not shock, the

orthodox. But this is what the author expects, and for this he has

thoroughly prepared himself. In illustration of his peculiar views

he has ransacked a vast variety of historical storehouses, and with

great trouble and at a considerable cost, he places the conclusions

at which he has arrived before the world. With the arguments

employed, the majority of readers will, we expect, disagree; even

when the facts adduced will remain undisputed, their application is

frequently inconsequent. In showing the absurdity of a narrative or

an event in which he disbelieves, the Doctor is powerful. No expense

has been spared on the work, which is well and fully illustrated, and

contains a good index.”--_Bookseller._

NEW ILLUSTRATED EDITION.

Ancient Symbol Worship.

Influence of the Phallic Idea in the Religions of

Antiquity. By HODDER M. WESTROPP and C. STANILAND WAKE. With

an Introduction, additional Notes, and Appendix, by ALEXANDER

WILDER, M.D. New Edition, with eleven full-page Illustrations.

1 vol. 8vo, cloth, $3.00.

The favor with which this treatise has been received has induced the

publisher to bring out a new edition. It makes a valuable addition

to our knowledge, enabling us to acquire a more accurate perception

of the ancient-world religions. We may now understand Phallism, not

as a subject of ribaldry and leering pruriency, but as a matter of

veneration and respect. The Biblical student, desirous to understand

the nature and character of the idolatry of the Israelites during the

Commonwealth and Monarchy, the missionary to heathen lands fitting

for his work, and the classic scholar endeavoring to comprehend

the ideas and principles which underlie Mythology, will find their

curiosity gratified; and they will be enabled at the same time to

perceive how not only many of our modern systems of religion, but our

arts and architecture, are to be traced to the same archaic source.

The books examined and quoted by the authors constitute a library

by themselves, and their writers are among the ripest scholars of

their time. Science is rending asunder the veil that conceals the

adytum of every temple, and revealing to men the sanctities revered

so confidingly during the world’s childhood. With these disclosures,

there may be somewhat of the awe removed with which we have regarded

the symbols, mysteries, and usages of that period; but the true mind

will not be vulgarized by the spectacle.

The Eleusinian and Bacchic Mysteries.

A Dissertation, by THOMAS TAYLOR, Translator of “Plato,”

“Plotinus,” “Porphyry,” “Iamblichus,” “Proclus,” “Aristotle,”

etc., etc. Third edition. Edited, with Introduction, Notes,

Emendations, and Glossary, by ALEXANDER WILDER, M.D. 1 vol.

8vo, cloth, $3.00.

In the Mysteries, the dramas acted at Eleusis and other sacred

places, were embodied the deeper thoughts and religious sentiment

of the archaic world. The men and women initiated into them were

believed to be thenceforth under special care of God, for this life

and the future. So holy and interior were the doctrines considered

which had been learned in the Sanctuary from the two tablets of

stone, that it was not lawful to utter them to another. What was

seen and learned elsewhere might be admirable; but the exercises of

Eleusis and Olympia had in them the something divine, and those who

observed them were “the children of God,” and imaging Him in wisdom,

intuitive discernment, and love.

The reader desirous of getting the kernel of the doctrines of Plato,

Orpheus, Eumolpas, and their fellow-laborers, as well as of the

Alexandrian Eclectics, will obtain invaluable aid from this treatise.

Antiquities of Long Island.

relating to the town of Brooklyn, in Kings County, on Long

Ancient Pagan and Modern Christian Symbolism.

By THOMAS INMAN, M.D., author of “Ancient Faiths Embodied

in Ancient Names,” etc. Second edition, revised and enlarged,

with an Essay on Baal Worship, on “the Assyrian Sacred Grove,”

and other allied symbols. By JOHN NEWTON, M.R.C.S.E., etc.

Profusely illustrated. 1 vol. cloth, $3.00.

This book contains in a nutshell the essence of Dr. Inman’s other

publications, and for the reader of limited means is just what he

requires. The subject of symbolism is as deep as human thought and

as broad in its scope as humanity itself. The erudite thinker finds

it not only worthy of his best energies, but capable of taxing them

to the utmost. Many pens have been employed upon it, and it has

never grown old. Dr. Inman’s views are somewhat peculiar; he has

concentrated his attention to the ideas which he believes to underlie

the symbolism of the most ancient periods, and can be traced through

the autonomy of the Christian Church. He finds the relation which

exists, and the antiquarian likewise, between Asshur and Jehovah, the

Baal of Syria and the God whom Christians worship; and the mysteries

of the Sacred Grove, of which the Old Testament says so much, are

unfolded and made sensible to the common intellect. Scholars will

welcome this volume, and the religious reader will peruse its pages

with the profoundest interest. The symbols which characterize worship

constitute a study which will never lose its interest, so long as

learning and art have admirers.

The Lost Beauties of the English Language.

An Appeal to Authors, Poets, Clergymen, and Public

Speakers. By CHAS. MACKAY, LL.D. 1 vol. 12mo, cloth extra,

$1.75.

Words change as well as men, sometimes from no longer meeting the new

wants of the people, but oftener from the attraction of novelty which

impels everybody to change. A dictionary of obsolete words, and terms

becoming obsolete, is a valuable reminder of the treasures which we

are parting with; not always wisely, for in them are comprised a

wealth of expression, idiom, and even history, which the new words

cannot acquire. Dr. Mackay has placed a host of such on record,

with quotations to illustrate how they were read by the classical

writers of the English language, not many centuries ago, and enables

us to read those authors more understandingly. If he could induce

us to recall some of them back to life, it would be a great boon to

literature; but hard as it might have been for Cæsar to add a new

word to his native Latin language, it would have been infinitely more

difficult to resuscitate an obsolete one, however more expressive

and desirable. Many of the terms embalmed in this treatise are not

dead as yet: and others of them belong to that prolific department of

our spoken language that does not get into dictionaries. But we all

need to know them; and they really are more homogeneous to our people

than their successors, the stilted foreign-born and alien English,

that “the Best” is laboring to naturalize into our language. The old

words, like old shoes and well-worn apparel, sit most comfortably.

FRANCE IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.

Lacroix.

(BIBLIOPHILE JACOB) XVIIIᵐᵉ SIÈCLE, INSTITUTIONS, USAGES,

ET COSTUMES, France, 1700-1789. Illustrated with twenty-one

large and beautifully executed chromo-lithographs, and upwards

of three hundred and fifty engravings on wood after Watteau,

Vanloo, Boucher, Lancret, Chardin, Bouchardin, Saint-Aubin,

Eisen, Moreau, etc. 1 vol. thick Imperial 8vo, half red

morocco, extra gilt leaves, $13.50.

----The same, full crimson Levant super-extra, $22.50.

The title of this new work, by the indefatigable Paul Lacroix,

conveys but an indifferent idea of its contents. It is admirably

gotten up, and is illustrated in a most profuse manner, equalling,

if not excelling, the former works of the same author, giving us a

living picture of the 18th century--the king, nobility, bourgeoisie,

people, parliaments, clergy, army and navy, commerce, education,

police, etc., Paris, its pleasures, promenades, fêtes, salons,

cuisine, theatres, costumes, etc., etc.

A NEW WORK ON CHRISTIAN ART.

Jésus-Christ.

Attendu, vivant, continué, dans le monde, par LOUIS

VEUILLOT, avec une étude sur l’Art Chrétien par E. CARTIER.

16 large and beautifully executed chromo-lithographs, and 200

engravings, etchings, and woodcuts, from the most celebrated

monuments, from the period of the Catacombs to the present

day. Thick Imp. 8vo, new half morocco extra, gilt leaves,

$13.50.

----The same, printed on large Holland paper. Imp. 8vo,

half polished Levant morocco, gilt top, $22.50.

This elegant work is uniform in style and illustration with the

works of Paul Lacroix, by the same house. The illustrations (which

were prepared under the direction of M. Dumoulin), are of the most

attractive character, and present a chronological view of Christian

art. The exquisite series of chromos are from pictures by Giotto,

Ghirlandajo, Andrea del Sarto, Raphael, Fra Bartolommeo-Angelico,

Sacchi di Pavia, Flandrin, and a head of Christ from the Catacombs,

Fac-similes, by Armand, Durand, from rare etchings by Marc Antonio,

Dürer, etc., also a reduction from Prevost, plate of the wedding at

Cana, after Paul Veronese, and nearly 200 charming engravings on wood.

UNIFORM WITH THE WORKS OF PAUL LACROIX.

morocco extra, $22.50.

Contents: An account of the arms and military dresses of the period,

accompanied by descriptive figures taken from the seals of the

Archives; a map of feudal France, by M. Aug. Longnon, a new work

of the highest importance to the history of the 15th century; a

study of the worship shown to Joan of Arc in the French and Foreign

literatures (it is known that during the lifetime of Joan, her

wonderful mission was represented on the stage); fac-similes of

letters of Joan, etc., etc.

Dramatists of the Restoration.

Beautifully printed on superior paper, to range with

accuracy in every detail. Post 8vo, half mor., gilt top, $3.00.

“A complete fac-simile of the celebrated First Folio edition of 1623

for half-a-guinea is at once a miracle of cheapness and enterprise.

Being in a reduced form, the type is necessarily rather diminutive,

but it is as distinct as in a genuine copy of the original,

and will be found to be as useful, and far more handy to the

student.”--_Athenæum._

The Violin.

perfection.

It is illustrated by upwards of forty first-class Wood

Engravings from Photographs, which represent the exact

pictures in this celebrated collection. FINE IMPRESSIONS.

Thick royal 4to, paper, uncut, $25.00; or in half morocco,

gilt tops, uncut, $30.00.

∵ Already out of print and scarce.

This charming catalogue was gotten up at the expense of the generous

owner of the collection, and the money received from its sale donated

to the fund for the relief of the poor of the city. The edition

consisted of 1,000 copies. It was immediately exhausted.

The Catalogue is a model of its kind. The notices are in most

instances accompanied with a fac-simile of the artist’s signature

to the picture; a biographical sketch of the artist; notices of the

engraved examples, if any; and critical notes on each picture.

The graphic department is, however, the great feature of this

Catalogue, embracing, as it does, upwards of sixty examples of the

best etchers of the present day, including Greux, Chauvel, Martial,

Rajon, Gaucherel, Jacquemart, Hédouin, Lemaire, Duclos, Masson,

Flameng, Lalanne, Gilbert, etc., etc.

Dürer’s “Little Passion.”

Passio Christi. A complete set of the Thirty-seven

Woodcuts, by Albert Dürer. Reproduced in fac-simile. Edited by

W. C. Prime. One volume, Royal 4to (13 × 10½ inches). Printed

on heavy glazed paper, half vellum, $10.00. Morocco antique,

$15.00.

The Little Passion of Albert Dürer, consisting of thirty-seven

woodcuts, has long been regarded as one of the most remarkable

collections of illustrations known to the world. Complete sets of

the entire series are excessively rare. The editions which have been

published in modern times in Europe are defective, lacking more or

less of the Plates, and are of an inferior and unsatisfactory class

of workmanship.

Æsop’s Fables.

With 56 illustrations, from designs by Henry L. Stephens.

Royal 4to, cloth extra, gilt leaves, $10.00.

Mr. Stephens has no superior in the peculiar style of illustration

which is most effective in bringing out the spirit of Æsop’s Fables,

and in this volume he has given us fifty-six full page cartoons,

brimming with droll humor, reciting the Fables over again, and

enforcing their morals just as effectively as was done by the words

of Æsop himself. The illustrations are among the finest specimens of

art ever produced in this country, and the volume as a whole is most

creditable to American artistic skill.

Boccaccio’s Decameron;

Or, Ten Days’ Entertainment. Now fully translated into

English, with Introduction by THOMAS WRIGHT, Esq., M.A.,

F.S.A. Illustrated by STOTHARD’S Engravings on Steel, and the

12 unique plates from the rare Milan Edition. One volume,

thick 12mo, cloth extra, $3.50, or handsomely bound in half

polished Levant morocco, gilt top, $5.50.

The most complete translation, containing many passages not hitherto

translated into English.

Royal 8vo, cloth, uncut, $4.50.

Tom D’Urfey’s “Pills to Purge Melancholy.”

Being a collection of Merry Ballads and Songs, old and new,

fitted to all humors, having each its proper tune for voice

scarce work. Small paper, 6 vols., crown 8vo, bds., uncut,

$15.00. Large paper, 6 vols. crown 4to. Only a few printed.

Bds., uncut, $24.00.

“But what obtained Mr. D’Urfey his greatest reputation was a

peculiarly happy knack he possessed in the writing of satires and

irregular odes. Many of these were upon temporary occasions, and were

of no little service to the party in whose cause he wrote; which,

together with his natural vivacity and good humor, obtained him

the favor of great numbers, of all ranks and conditions, monarchs

themselves not excluded. He was strongly attached to the Tory

interest, and in the latter part of Queen Anne’s reign had frequently

the honor of diverting that princess with witty catches and songs

of humor suited to the spirit of the times, written by himself, and

which he sang in a lively and entertaining manner. And the author of

the Guardian, who, in No. 67. has given a very humorous account of

Mr. D’Urfey, with a view to recommend him to the public notice for a

benefit play, tells us that he remembered King Charles II. leaning on

Tom D’Urfey’s shoulder more than once, and humming over a song with

him.

“He appears to have been a diverting companion, and a cheerful,

honest, good-natured man; so that he was the delight of the most

polite companies in conversations, from the beginning of Charles

II.’s to the latter part of King George I.’s reign; and many an

honest gentleman got a reputation in his country by pretending to

have been in company with Tom D’Urfey.”--_Chalmers._

new edition, in 2 volumes, post 8vo, beautifully printed on

antique laid paper, and bound in antique boards, $4.00.

A FEW LARGE PAPER COPIES have been prepared. 2 vols. 4to,

∵ Of the Poets of the Restoration, there are none whose works are

more rare than those of Sir John Mennis and Dr. James Smith. The

small volume entitled “Musarum Deliciæ; or, The Muses’ Recreation,”

which contains the production of these two friends, was not

accessible to Mr. Freeman when he compiled his “Kentish Poets,” and

has since become so rare that it is only found in the cabinets of the

curious. A reprint of the “Musarum Deliciæ,” together with several

other kindred pieces of the period, appeared in 1817, forming two

volumes of Facetiæ, edited by Mr. E. Dubois, author of “The Wreath,”

etc. These volumes having in turn become exceedingly scarce, the

Publishers venture to put forth the present new edition, in which,

while nothing has been omitted, no pains have been spared to render

it more complete and elegant than any that has yet appeared. The

type, plates, and woodcuts of the originals have been accurately

followed; the Notes of the editor of 1817 are considerably augmented,

and indexes have been added, together with a portrait of Sir John

Mennis, from a painting by Vandyke in Lord Clarendon’s Collection.

“Wrought for a Staff, wrought for a Rod.”

SWINBURNE.--_Atalanta in Calydon._

The above work condenses in a lively narrative form a most

astonishing mass of curious and recondite information in regard to

the subject of which it treats. From the bludgeon of Cain to the

truncheon of the Marshals of France, from the budding rod of Aaron

to the blazing cane of M. de Balzac, the stick, in all its relations

with man since first he meddled with the Tree of Knowledge of Good

and Evil, is shown here to have played a far greater part in history

than is commonly imagined. It has been the instrument of justice,

it has been the tool also of luxury. It has ministered to man, its

maker, pleasure as well as pain, and has served for his support as

well as for his subjugation. The mysteries in which it has figured

are some of them revealed and others of them hinted in these most

entertaining and instructive pages, for between the days of the

society of Assassins in the East and those of the society of the

Aphrodites in the West, the Stick has been made the pivot of many

secret associations, all of them interesting to the student of human

morals, but not all of them wisely to be treated of before the

general public. The late Mr. Buckle especially collected on this

subject some most astounding particulars of social history, which

he did not live to handle in his own inimitable way, but of which

an adequate inkling is here afforded to the serious and intelligent

reader.

bound in antique boards, $6.00, or LARGE PAPER COPIES, 4 vols.

8vo, $10.00.

∵ This singularly entertaining work may be described as the first

English novel, properly so-called. The same air of reality pervades

it as that which gives such a charm to stories written by DeFoe half

a century later. The interest never flags for a moment, from the

first chapter to the last.

As a picture of the manners of the period, two hundred years ago,

in England, among the various grades of society through which the

hero passes in the course of his extraordinary adventures, and among

gypsies, beggars, thieves, etc., the book is invaluable to students.

It was from such materials that Lord Macaulay was enabled to produce

his vivid pictures of England in the sixteenth century. To historical

students and antiquaries, and to the general reader, these volumes

will be found full of interest.

HALLIWELL, F.R.S. $10.00.

This is a most important work for the Shakspearian student. The

great researches of the author have enabled him to bring to light

many facts hitherto unknown in reference to the “great bard.” All

the documents possessing any real claim to importance are inserted

at full length, and many of them are now printed for the first time.

With respect to the illustrations, which have been executed by J. T.

“Have we not before us, at this very moment, a print--one of the

admirable ‘_Illustrations of Phrenology_’--which entire work was

purchased by a joint-stock company of boys--each drawing lots

afterwards for the separate prints, and taking his choice in

rotation? The writer of this, too, had the honor of drawing the first

lot, and seized immediately upon ‘Philoprogenitiveness’--a marvellous

print, indeed--full of ingenuity and fine, jovial humor.”--WM. M.

THACKERAY.

SEVEN GENERATIONS OF EXECUTIONERS.

Memoirs of the Sanson Family.

Compiled from Private Documents in the possession of the

Family (1688 to 1847), by HENRI SANSON. Translated from the

French, with an Introduction by CAMILLE BARRÈRE. Two vols.

post 8vo, cloth, $5.50; or half calf, extra, $7.50.

“A faithful translation of this curious work, which will certainly

repay perusal, not on the ground of its being full of horrors--for

the original author seems to be rather ashamed of the technical

aspect of his profession, and is commendably reticent as to its

details--but because it contains a lucid account of the most notable

_causes célèbres_ from the time of Louis XIV. to a period within the

memory of persons still living.... The memoirs, if not particularly

instructive, can scarcely fail to be extremely entertaining.”--_Daily

Telegraph._

“A book of great though somewhat ghastly interest.... Something much

above a mere chapter of horrors.”--_Graphic._

Avesta.

THE RELIGIOUS BOOKS OF THE PARSEES. From Professor

SPIEGEL’S German Translation of the Original Manuscripts, by

A. H. BLEECK. 3 vols. in 1, 8vo, cloth, $7.50.

English scholars who wish to become acquainted with the “Bible of the

Parsees,” now for the first time published in English, should secure

this copy. To thinkers the “Avesta” will be a most valuable work;

they will now have an opportunity to compare its TRUTHS with those of

the BIBLE, the KORAN, and the VEDAS.

himself--a man of much original genius and sincere culture, young,

and with an enthusiastic contempt for conventionality, which I

hope he may never outgrow.”--_New York Tribune, Letter from London

Correspondent._

Ireland’s Shakspeare Forgeries.

The Confessions of William Henry Ireland, containing the

Particulars of his Fabrication of the Shakspeare Manuscripts;

together with Anecdotes and Opinions of many distinguished

Persons in the Literary, Political, and Theatrical World. A

new edition, with additional Fac-similes, and an Introduction

by RICHARD GRANT WHITE. 1 volume, 12mo, vellum cloth, uncut

edges, $2.00; or, on Large and Thick paper, 8vo, $3.50.

Edition limited to 300 copies.

Enthusiasts are easily duped, and of all enthusiasts, excepting

the religious, those who give themselves up to the worship of some

great poet or artist are the easiest prey of the impostor. To them,

a book, a letter, the least scrap or relic which is connected

directly, or it would seem indirectly, with their idol, is an

inestimable treasure, and they are uneasy until it is in their

possession, or removed hopelessly beyond their reach. Of all these

enthusiasts the “Shakspearians” are, and for a hundred years have

been, at once the most numerous, and the most easily, because the

most willingly, deceived. To their craving and their greed we owe

the “Ireland Forgeries,” which were merely an impudent attempt to

supply a demand--an attempt made by a clever, ignorant young scamp,

who succeeded in deluding the whole body of them in England two

generations ago. His “Confessions” are the simply told story of this

stupendous imposture: and the book--long out of print and scarce--is

one the most _naïf_ and amusing of its kind in the whole history of

literature. His exhibition of the “gulls,” whom he made his victims,

is equally delightful and instructive; and chiefly so, because

of his simplicity and frankness. He conceals nothing, palliates

nothing; tells the whole story of his ridiculous iniquity, and

leaves a lasting lesson to the whole tribe of credulous collectors,

Shakspearian and others.

“It has frequently afforded me a matter of astonishment to think

how this literary fraud could have so long duped the world, and

involved in its deceptious vortex such personages as Parr, Wharton,

and Sheridan, not omitting Jemmy Boswell, of Johnsonian renown; nor

can I ever refrain from smiling whensoever the volumes of Malone and

Chalmers, together with the pamphlets of Boaden, Waldron, Wyatt,

and Philalethes, otherwise, ---- Webb, Esq., chance to fall in my

way.”--W. H. IRELAND’S “_Chalcographimania_.”

This work is something more than a drawing-room ornament. It is an

elaborate and careful summary of all that one of our most learned

subject, has been able to learn as to the condition of women from the

earliest times.

DeFoe’s Life and Works,

Vol. I.--A NEW MEMOIR OF DEFOE. Vols. II. and

A most valuable contribution to English history and English

literature.

For many years it has been well known in literary circles that the

gentleman to whom the public is indebted for this valuable addition

to the knowledge of DeFoe’s Life and Works has been an indefatigable

collector of everything relating to the subject, and that such

collection had reference to a more full and correct Memoir than had

yet been given to the world.

most learned antiquaries of his time. His museum of Phallic objects

is now most carefully preserved in the London British Museum. The

second ‘Essay,’ bringing our knowledge of the worship of Priapus down

to the present time, so as to include the more recent discoveries

throwing any light upon the matter, is said to be by one of the most

distinguished English antiquaries--the author of numerous works which

are held in high esteem. He was assisted it is understood, by two

prominent Fellows of the Royal Society, one of whom has recently

presented a wonderful collection of Phallic objects to the British

Museum authorities.”

No equally important contribution to the political history of the

last generation has been made by any previous writer. As a man of

rank and fashion, Mr. Greville associated, on terms of equality, with

office immediately outside of the circle of politics compelled him to

observe a neutrality which was probably congenial to his character

and inclination.--_Saturday Review._

bound morocco, gilt edges, full gilt backs. $100.

The same work on Large Paper, 2 vols. atlas folio, 100

plates, 67 of them in gold and colors, the engraved plates on

India paper (pub. at £36), half bound morocco, gilt edges.

$125.

For practical purposes, to architects the small paper copies will

suffice; but gentlemen desirous of adding a noble book in its finest

appearance to their library, must have a Large Paper copy.

“In spite of earthquakes, mines and counter-mines--spite of Spanish

convicts, French soldiers, Spanish bigotry, and Flemish barbarism

of thieves and gipsys, contrabandists and brigands, paupers,

charcoal-burners and snow-gatherers, the Alhambra still exists--one

of the most recent of European ruins. It is the most perfect in

repair and the richest in design; it has suffered less from man,

or the elements, and has fallen more gently into decay. It was not

molten like Nineveh in an hour, or buried in a day like Pompeii; it

was not smitten down at a blow like Corinth, or sapped for centuries

like Athens. Though it has been alternately a barrack, a prison, a

tea garden, and an almshouse--though its harem has been a hen-house,

its prisons pens for sheep; the Alhambra is still one of the most

wonderful productions of Eastern splendor, lingering in Europe long

after the Moslem waves have rolled back into Asia, like a golden cup

dropped on the sand, or like the last tent of some dead Arab, still

standing, when the rest of his tribe have long since taken up their

spears, untethered their camels, and sought their new homes in the

far desert.”

ORIGINAL and ONLY GENUINE EDITION.

In this learned work--the best that we have on the subject--many

of the chapters are devoted to dissertations on matters of general

interest to students of literature. We instance Chap. XXIV.,

containing a treatise on the Obscenity of the French language, the

Jargon of Argot, its Origin, etc.; also in Chap. XXXII., a highly

interesting bibliographical account of the Aretin plates by Marc

Antonio, etc., etc.

The author was threatened with criminal prosecution, and pledged

himself never to reproduce the work; it has now become scarce.

_NEW AND MAGNIFICENT WORK ON TEXTILE FABRICS._

Ornamental Textile Fabrics

Of all Ages and Nations. A practical Collection of

Specimens. Illustrated with Fifty Plates in Gold, Silver, and

Colors, Comprising upwards of 1,000 various styles of Ancient,

Mediæval and Modern Ornamental Designs of Textile Fabrics,

with Explanatory Description and a General Introduction. By M.

DUMONT-AUBERVILLE. 1 vol. folio, cloth, gilt, extra. $25.00.

The Editor of this work, M. Dupont-Auberville, is known as one of the

most distinguished archæologists of modern France, and Textile Art is

the department of archæology to which he has devoted the best years

of his life. His collection of specimens of textile fabrics embraces

models taken from all ages and from all countries, and is admitted by

all artists to be unique in every respect.

The works of ancient textile art, both in the East and the West, are

done full justice to, but at the same time the framer of “Ornamental

Textile Fabrics” has drawn more amply from the extensive stock of

models belonging to more recent periods. From his immense collection

of specimens taken from the Renaissance and the seventeenth and

eighteenth centuries, he has selected those subjects which are most

worthy of the attention both of the amateur and the manufacturer.

In this manner the work now submitted to the public is not a mere

ornamental one, but at the same time it possesses a practical

usefulness which must cause it to be valued by all who make a study

of taste in manufacturing industry in general, and the art of weaving

in particular.

painters he had to interpret as Professor Unger in the seventy-two

plates which compose his ‘Works.’ He can adopt at will the most

opposite styles, and work on each with ease, a fluency such as

other men can only attain in one manner--their own--and after half

a lifetime. Indeed, one would not be going far wrong to describe

Professor Unger as an art critic of very uncommon insight, who

explains the sentiment and execution of great painters with an

etching needle instead of a pen.

“It has been said of engraving that it is an unintellectual

occupation, because it is simply copyism; but such engraving as this

is not unintellectual, for it proves a delicacy and keenness of

understanding which are both rare among artists and critics. Unger

has not the narrowness of the ordinary artist, for he can enter into

the most opposite styles; nor has he the technical ignorance of the

ordinary critic, for he can draw--I will not say like a great master,

but like twenty different great masters.

“Mr. Vosmaer, the now well-known Dutch critic, who writes in English

and French as well as in his own language, has much increased

the interest in Unger’s etchings by accompanying them with a

valuable biographic essay of his own, much superior to the ordinary

‘letter-press,’ which publishers in general appear to consider as a

necessary companion to engraving.

“The seventy-two etchings before us are, on the whole, the most

remarkable set of studies from old masters which has been issued by

the enterprise of our modern publishers, and they can hardly fail to

make fine work better appreciated both by artists and amateurs.

“A few words of praise are due to the spirited publisher, Mr.

Sijthoff, of Leyden, for the manner in which these etchings of

Unger have been published. They are printed on fine Dutch paper,

and mounted (pasted by the upper edge only) on sufficiently good

boards in such a manner as to enter into the most carefully arranged

collections without further change. They are accompanied by a text

printed with the greatest taste, on very fine Dutch paper. This

series is printed in one class of proof only, and issued at a price

that is most reasonable, and Mr. Sijthoff deserves our thanks for

placing works of real art, thoroughly well got up, within the reach

of cultivated people who have limited incomes.

“We recommend them strongly to all artists and lovers of art

as a valuable means of art education and a source of enduring

pleasure.”--HAMERTON in the _International Review_ for Jan., 1876.

Etchings after Frans Hals.

A Series of 20 beautifully executed Etchings. By WILLIAM

UNGER. With an Essay on the Life and Works of the artist, by

C. Vosmaer. Two parts, complete, royal folio. Impressions

India paper, $40.00. Artist proofs on India paper, $60.00.

$15.00 additional to the above prices. Uniform with Unger’s

works.

“They who know the Dutch painter Hals only through the few portraits

by him which have reached this country have but a slight comparative

acquaintance with his works. ‘A stranger to all academical lore, to

all literary co-operation,’ writes Mr. Vosmaer, ‘Frans Hals appeared

merely as a portrait-painter, like most of the modern artists of

his youth ... true to life, but also excelling by naturalness and

masterly handling. Subsequently he portrayed the joyous popular life

of the streets and the tavern; at last those phases of national

social life, which have at once their image and memorial in the

pictures of the arquebusiers and the civic governors.’”--_London Art

Journal_, Aug. 1873.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

“Nowhere but in Paris could such a Review be produced every week

as _L’Art_, so magnificent in every respect, paper, typography,

illustrations, and above all, so many sided in its view of art, and

so abundant and interesting in its information. It has now been

brought to the fourth year of its life, with every sign of assured

and increasing vigor, and we are glad to learn, from the report

of the editor to the subscribers, that something more substantial

than the _succès d’estime_ has rewarded the experiment of such a

costly venture.... It is simply the cheapest and the best thing of

its kind. M. Véron seems, at any rate, to have solved the problem

of combining excellence with cheapness. We find, besides numerous

little facsimiles of sketches, and autograph letters of eminent

artists, musicians, and dramatists, no less than seventy fine

etchings by such men as Flameng, Courtry, Desbrosses, Lançon, etc.,

and woodcuts of Claude’s and Turner’s pictures, with a series of

very remarkable copies of the famous tapestries at Madrid, from the

designs of Albrecht Dürer and Van Eyck, by Edmond Yon, Perrichon, and

C. Maurand, as well as singularly fine examples of wood engraving.

Supposing the reading matter of the Review were as ephemeral and

trivial in its purpose as the cheapest of the cheap instead of being,

as it is, rich and racy, with the native style of all French pens,

thoughtful and often profoundly suggestive, and generally complete,

in reference to detail, the two etchings by Flameng, from pictures by

Frans Hals and Nicholas Maas, alone would be really most valuable and

acceptable to the print-collector.... While _L’Art_ is conducted in

this style the editor may feel quite secure that France will not lose

that artistic supremacy she has long held.”--_London Times._

“It would be easy and pleasant to go on discoursing about the

pictures in _L’Art_, a paper which is so full of good, sober,

and just criticisms, trustworthy news about art, and designs not

otherwise to be obtained by most people.”--_Saturday Review._

“The new volume of _L’Art_ sufficiently manifests the success of

a very valuable and interesting publication.... There is no other

journal in existence which so happily and skilfully combines the

labors of artists and authors which does not subordinate art to

letters, or letters to art, but permits them to go ‘hand in hand,

not one before another.’... In brief, this grand folio volume of

_L’Art_ abounds in matters of interest to all readers and students of

æsthetic and cultivated taste.”--_The World_ (London).

“There is some monotony in praising each successive portion of a

periodical as it appears with an absolutely equal cordiality; but the

evenness of merit in _L’Art_ makes this uniformity of commendation a

duty.”--_The Nation._

“America is so destitute of illustrated works which can at all

compare with _L’Art_ that she cannot do better than study and enjoy

this French publication. Certainly there is no other means by which

so many valuable pictures can be obtained at so small a price.”--_The

Christian Union._

“Sumptuous in paper and type, lavish in illustrations, and with

critical and explanatory text of singular merit; the most famous of

modern art journals.”--_N. Y. Times._

The Portfolio:

An Artistic Periodical, edited by PHILIP GILBERT HAMERTON.

Illustrated with Etchings, Autotypes, Woodcuts, Facsimiles,

Engravings, Heliogravures, etc. _Published monthly._

Subscription reduced to TEN DOLLARS per annum.

∴ _Sent, Postage free, to any part of the United States, on

receipt of the Subscription price._

“The chief intention of ‘The Portfolio’ is to supply to its

subscribers, at a lower cost than would be possible without the

certain sale of a regular periodical circulation, Works of Art

of various kinds, but always such as are likely to interest a

cultivated public; and to accompany them with literature by writers

of proved ability, superior to mere letter-press, and more readable

than pure criticism or cataloguing.” Among the artists who have

furnished original etchings are Bracquemond, Lalanne, Rajon, Legros,

and Leopold Flameng, who has given some noble specimens of his

skill, especially in the reproduction of “The Laughing Portrait of

Rembrandt,” in his particular province as a reviver of the works of

that artist. The subjects in all cases are chosen for their worth

and rarity, and in these respects the “Portfolio” fairly rivals its

great contemporary, one of the noblest fine-art periodicals ever

issued, the Parisian “Gazette des Beaux-Arts.” It has the same finish

in execution in the minutest details of paper and print, and is in

every way a _thoroughly artistic production_, far ahead in this way

of anything of the class heretofore issued in England.

There are numerous single illustrations in the “Portfolio,” worth the

price of the volume, suitable for framing.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

“Of the PORTFOLIO altogether it is to be said, that not only is it

_the first periodical in the English language devoted to fine-art,

but that it leads all others by a very great distance_, whatever the

second and third of such publications may be taken to be.

“We warmly commend it to the notice of all who would cultivate in

themselves and their families an appreciation of the beautiful in

nature and art. The illustrations are largely of sylvan scenery,

and etchings from the finest paintings are given, with letter-press

descriptions, and the best articles from the highest authorities, so

that the monthly paper itself, an illustration of what is taught,

becomes a complete magazine of the science of art. _We would regard

the introduction of such a journal into the family as a good

educator, while it will prove a source of exquisite pleasure to those

who have already a taste for the beautiful._”--_N. Y. Observer._

“We look for the PORTFOLIO as for the only serial published, in

which works of art of a certain kind and of peculiar merit are to

be found. Etching is not as popular, perhaps, as it should be, but

if anything is likely to bring its merits before the public, it is

such examples as are to be had here. Their effect is striking, and in

execution they are little short of perfect; at any rate they exhibit

this kind of work in the highest degree of perfection to which it has

attained.”--_N. Y. Daily Times._

“Mr. Hamerton’s PORTFOLIO is easily chief among English art

periodicals, and has the advantage of being written by men who

are not only familiar with the literature of art and the works of

artists, but are artists by profession, and so know the feelings,

aims, and technicalities of artists. The editor is probably better

acquainted with continental artists and their work than most of

the insular fellows, and his art theories and criticisms are

proportionately more catholic and valuable. The PORTFOLIO, instead

of being a magazine of current gossip about artists and their

doings, is a work of permanent value, apart from its excellent

illustrations, as a collection of able essays, critical, historical,

technical, and personal, very free from narrowness and professional

or national prejudice. It is the glory of the Portfolio that it

is in a way cosmopolitan, free from the prejudices of nations and

schools.”--_Atlantic Monthly._

“The Portfolio is very charming. An Art periodical far superior to

anything which has hitherto appeared.”--_Guardian._

“From the first it has stood nearly alone as really ‘an artistic

periodical.’ An hour spent over the Portfolio is one of refreshment,

encouragement, and unalloyed delight.”--_Spectator._

“Of the Etchings the merits are unquestionable: indeed, the work

is enriched with some of the finest examples. The literary part

is generally worthy of praise for being scholarly, graceful, and

interesting.”--_Athenæum._

“Dealing with artistic subjects generally, and always in a spirit of

intelligence and refinement.”--_Graphic._

“To the portfolio is unanimously accorded the first place as an

artistic periodical.”--_Cambridge Chronicle._

Back volumes for 1870, ’71, ’72, ’73, ’74, ’75, ’76,

and ’77 may still be had on application. Any volume sold

separately. Price, in _blue cloth_, _gilt leaves_, $14.00 each.
