La Brète, J. de. Mon oncle et mon curé.

"The whole book can be recomended. The genuine, breezy, almost riotous fun of it contrasts in the most agreeable way with the dull filth, the arid pessimism, the Ouidesque fine writing, the mere vulgarity, or, worst of all, the maundering agnostic sentimentality of the average French fiction of the present day."- Sat. rev., Oct. 19.

"A second volume is to contain the apparatus which German scholarship deems necessary for a critical edi tion of such a masterpiece - an introduction, dealing with the language and the like, a treatise on the sources, various readings, an index, etc. As a complement and guerdon, perhaps, to English buyers, an essay on Malory's prose style by A. Lang is to be added." For the student of language no English book is more fascinating. It is packed with the most expressive words and idioms just strange enough to stimulate interest, piquant, picturesque, gentle, as well as queer combina tions of words which offer grammatical problems as inviting as the particles of Homer.". - Nation, Jan. 2.

"The book seems to have been written as an answer to Carlyle and the succeeding writers who have followed in his steps. Mr. Palgrave is no novice in the study of the history of the seventeenth century, and his learning and accomplishments are too well-known to need panegyric. As was to be expected his volume shows much reading and long study. We feel certain that for the time it will be widely read and assiduously quoted; yet we cannot believe that it any more than its predecessor, will be considered to contain an impartial estimate of Cromwell's character." - Athenæum, Mar. 8.

Taylor, I: The origin of the Aryans; an account of the prehistoric ethnology and civilisation of Europe.

...

"Canon Taylor has collected with very great labour a mass of novel opinions, a summary of the labours of many scholars.' A better manual of the latest notions could not, we think, have been produced. It is cer tain enough, too, that there is much error in the general popular ideas of these obscure matters, and the book may serve a good purpose if it encourages scepticism and an open mind' on subjects which are perhaps beyond certainty of decision.". Sut. rev., Jan. 4.

Thornton, P. M. The Stuart dynasty; short studies of its rise, course, and early exile.

"Misfortune still awaits on that most unfortunate race, unfortunate even in this its latest historian. His task, it is true, was one of very great difficulty. To sift the vast mass of material, whilst discarding the extraneous and irrelevant, and then to weave a lucid narra tive that should be something more and something less than a set history of Seotland and of Great Britain this would require no common knowledge and ability. Mr. Thornton's knowledge is very easily gauged. Some of his blunders are glaring, patent to 'every school boy; but there are dozens of others, less patent, and therefore more dangerous." - Athenæum, Apr. 12. Varney, G: J. A brief history of Maine.

"Lady Wilde is always an amusing writer; her hu mour has a quaint seriousness that renders even book. making tolerable from her hand, and her seriousness has a humour of which she is probably unconscious. As a contribution to Irish lore' it is of little value, yet the author has a pleasing way of telling a story, s0 that albeit she used all her best materials for her really interesting Legends of Ireland,' she has contrived to make up a fairly amusing volume of the fragments that remained."

Woodland, moor, and stream; [ed. by J. A. Owen].

"It is compiled from the notes of a genuine naturalist in humble life. It tells his early love of wild creatures - more particlarly of wild birds and their haunts; records long days spent among the teeming marshes, or along the rambling hedge-rows; dwells with the fondness of long and close intimacy on the habits of the ot ter, the badger, the polecat, and all the tribe of outcast animals who only cross the path of man at the peril of their lives; and interweaves with every reminiscence and adventure sketches of wild, rude nature, which, if not exactly portrayed with the pen of a practised writer, are both graphic and forcible."

"Although Señor Galdós has been compared to Dickens, his power and originality entitle him to stand on his own merits. If comparison is needed, it is easier to define the standpoint from which Señor Galdós views men and manners by comparing him to George Eliot. To the same blending of ardent human sympathy and keen sense of the ludicrous we owe certain scenes in 'Middlemarch,' and Felix Holt,' and the record of what came to pass in the Calle Mira el Rio, and the Calle Don Pedro, as it is set down in Fortunato y Jacinta. The note of voluntary realism is at times so accentuated as to be wearisome. When Señor Galdós wrote as one inspired by a tale he could not help telling, and with an art that concealed art, as in El Doctor Celipin, La de Bringas, Tormento, and El Amigo Manso, the Spanish idealists paid him the highest compliment they could conceive of He is no naturalist,' they cried; he is one of ours.'"

He has visited and revisited the peninsula and lived there for a long time; and he has thus become acquainted with the country, its art treasures, and its literature, so as to be able to speak with authority on the subject. For years he has searched the archives of Italy, besides those of Spain for new documentary materials: and in this particular branch of research he has been surprisingly successful....

"In La haute' we have a heliograph-faithful as the outline printed by the sun upon the candid metal — of what French society at the present day literally is; but it is also made distinct and clear how and where it participates in the universal human element. There is no exaggeration of proportion in all this; no tragedy, no swelling of the human voice through the classic maskno flowers of decomposition,' or 'flowers of crime 'or any of the brilliant monstrosities invented nowadays by some of the masters of the art; it is all very homely given a social state which aspires to something quite the reverse but it shows sincerely the good with the bad, the painful with the gay, and divested of all parti pris, without one syllable of what could be styled preaching it presents absolutely as in a lookingglass' the picture of those classes that more or less every where constitute 'society,' and appear to rest their last remaining prerogative upon their uselessness."

Le Couteulx de Canteleu, le comte J: E. H. Manuel de vénerie française. (Bibl. du sport.) "The popularity of the Badminton library' has produced imitation in France, and Messrs. Hachette & Co. inaugurate a Bibliothèque du sport' with a work by Comte le Couteulx de Canteleu, profusely illustrated by Crafty,' and the MM. Bodmer, on stag-hunting as well as the hunting of doe, wild boar, wolves, hares, and foxes, foxes standing last. The work which ap. pears under the title of 'Manual de vénerie française,' is to be followed by works on horse-racing, on fencing, and on shooting; and if they are all as good as the one now before us the Duke of Beaufort will have found a worthy rival. The present volume deals most largely with stag-hunting, as is natural in a book produced by a country in which that form of sport is classical and natural; and it possesses a certain permanent literary interest from containing at p. 263 a dictionary of terms of art. It is also of interest to musical people, as it gives the music of all the sonneries; and to lawyers, because it contains an appendix on the law applicable to hunting." Athenæum, Dec. 28.
