suited for _School Prizes_, _Presents to Young People_, and for general
instruction and entertainment. The Series comprises fourteen of the most
popular of Lord Macaulay's _Essays_, and his _Speeches_ on Parliamentary
Reform. The department of Travels contains some account of eight of the
principal countries of Europe, as well as Travels in four districts of
Africa, in four of America, and in three of Asia. Madame Pfeiffer's
_First Journey round the World_ is included, and a general account of
the _Australian Colonies_. In Biography and History will be found Lord
Macaulay's Biographical Sketches of _Warren Hastings, Clive, Pitt,
Walpole, Bacon,_ and others, besides Memoirs of _Wellington, Turenne, F.
Arago,_ &c., an Essay on the Life and Genius of _Thomas Fuller_, with
Selections from his Writings, by Mr. Henry Rogers; and a history of the
_Leipsic Campaign_, by Mr. Gleig,--which is the only separate account of
this remarkable campaign. Works of Fiction did not come within the plan
of the TRAVELLER'S LIBRARY, but the _Confessions of a Working Man_, by
Souvestre, which is indeed a fiction founded on fact, has been included,
and has been read with unusual interest by many of the working classes,
for whose use it is especially recommended. Dumas's story of the _Maitre
d'Armes_, though in form a work of fiction, gives a striking picture of
an episode in the history of Russia. Amongst the works on Science and
Natural Philosophy, a general view of Creation is embodied in Dr. Kemp's
_Natural History of Creation_, and in his _Indications of Instinct_
remarkable facts in natural history are collected. Dr. Wilson has
contributed a popular account of the _Electric Telegraph_. In the
volumes on the _Coal-Fields_, and on the Tin and other Mining Districts
of _Cornwall_, is given an account of the mineral wealth of England, the
habits and manners of the miners, and the scenery of the surrounding
country. It only remains to add, that among the Miscellaneous Works are
a Selection of the best Writings of the Rev. Sydney Smith, Lord
Carlisle's _Lectures and Addresses_, an account of _Mormonism_, by the
Rev. W. J. Conybeare, an exposition of _Railway_ management and
mismanagement by Mr. Herbert Spencer, an account of the Origin and
Practice of _Printing_, by Mr. Stark; and an account of _London_, by Mr.
M'Culloch--To be had, in _complete Sets only_, at £5. 5s. per Set, bound
in cloth and lettered.

DOMENECH'S MISSIONARY TRAVELS IN CENTRAL AMERICA.
Just published, in One Volume, 8vo. with Map, price 10s. 6d. cloth,
MISSIONARY ADVENTURES
IN
TEXAS AND MEXICO:
A PERSONAL NARRATIVE OF SIX YEARS' SOJOURN IN THOSE REGIONS.
By the Abbé DOMENECH.
Translated from the French under the author's superintendence.
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
"The chequered and perilous existence of a Catholic missionary
consecrating himself to the cure of souls in the wilds of Texas and
Western America, his physical and moral struggles, are here portrayed
with a vivid truthfulness well calculated to arrest the sympathy of our
readers.... This book requires no further recommendation from as than
the analysis here given. Since the perusal of Livingstone's Africa, we
have read no traveller's journal with more instruction and pleasure. It
is eminently suggestive, too."
LEADER.
"Domenech's tone throughout is one of profound conviction; and the
hardships which he encountered, and which he relates with so much
simplicity and modesty as to enforce belief, are proof that he took his
mission to heart. In the two journeys he performed to America--journeys
that would have supplied a diffuse book-maker with matter for many
volumes, the Abbé was almost every day exposed to dangers of his
life--sometimes from the climate, sometimes from the privations to which
he was subjected, now from the rough character of the country he
constantly compelled to traverse in his spiritual journeys, anon from
the violence of colonists or Indians.... It will be seen that readers
who expect an infinity of enjoyment from these missionary adventures
will not be disappointed."
DAILY TELEGRAPH.
"The good and brave young Abbé Domenech, whose personal narrative we may
at once say we have found more readable and more informing than a dozen
volumes of ordinary adventure, is not unworthy to be named with Huc in
the annals of missionary enterprise; and we know not how to give him
higher praise. We speak of personal characteristics, and in these--in
the qualifications for a life of self-denying severity, not exercised
under the protecting shadow of a cloister, but in hourly conflict with
danger and necessity--the one looks to us like a younger brother in
likeness to the other. His account of Texas, its physical geography, its
earlier and later history, its populations, settled and nomad, and of
the history and customs of the Indian tribes and their forms of
religious worship, is concisely full and clear; and now that the new
destiny of these regions is beginning to unfold itself, we recommend to
particular attention the few pages in which all that is worth knowing
about their past and present condition is summed up.... To us, the pages
in which the Abbé Domenech confesses the trials and sorrows of his own
heart are the most interesting of his book. They bear the stamp of a
perfect and most touching sincerity; and, as we read them, we are more
and more impressed with the truth which they convey to all churches and
all sects. It has been well said, that Heaven is a character before it
is a place. The lesson which this personal narrative of a poor
missionary teaches, stems to us to be that religion is a life before it
is a dogma."
