Adolphus' History of England. "INDACATOR" _is informed that the
continuation of this work is proceeding with, as fast as Mr. L.
Adolphus' professional duties will admit; and we are sure that gentleman
would at all times readily explain, to those entitled to ask him what
progress has been made in it_.
_Our numerous Correspondents will, we trust, excuse our specially
acknowledging the receipt of their various communications, and agree
with us in the propriety of economising our limited room, so as to
insert rather than acknowledge the articles with which they have
favoured us._
_A Third Edition of Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4., forming Part I., is reprinted,
so that complete sets of our work may again be had._

A CHART of ANCIENT ARMOUR, from the ELEVENTH to the SEVENTEENTH
CENTURIES; containing Eighteen Figures, with a Description and a Sketch
of the Progress of European Armour. By JOHN HEWITT.
"A graphic outline of the subject of military costume during the period
of its greatest interest to the English antiquary. The author has made a
judicious selection of the examples, chiefly from the rich series of
monumental effigies; and, in the brief text which accompanies these
illustrations, a useful resumé will be found of a subject which, not
many years since was attainable only through the medium of costly
publications."--_Archæological Journal._
GEORGE BELL, 186. Fleet Street.
