 *^* " This rare volume contains most of the celebrated ' Bap Psalm, Book ' tunes. 
 Judge Sewell, who was ' a leader in Israers psalm-singing,' in his famous ' Diary,'' 
 makes repeated mention of seven tunes — no more. These are Windsor, Oxford, 
 York. St. David's. St. Mary's, Litchfield, and Westminster. He remarks : ' I set 
 Windsor tune, and the people, at the second going over, run into Oxford, do" what I 
 could.' Again, ' In the morning I set York tiine, and, in the second going 6ver, the 
 gallery carried it irresistibly to St, Davia'a, which discouraged me very much.' These 
 tunes will be found — St. David's, p. a ; St. Mary's, p. 6 ; Oxford, p. 8 ; Windsor, p. 10 ; 
 York, p. 11, etc. 
 
 " ' The Bay I'salm Book.'' or New England Veirsion, was first printed at Cam- 
 bridge in 1640, again in 1647. It was revised in 1650 by Pi-esident Dunster, of 
 Harvard College, whose edition was in use among the churches till supplanted by that 
 of Dr. Watts. The Rev. Thomas Prince, at the request of the Old South Church, pre- 
 pared a revised edition of the work in 1757. This version was in long use among 
 the churches — having passed through 'more than twenty edilions — and was reluctantly 
 exchanged by some congregations only after the American Kevolution."

 life and popular feeling of his time, it is, both in style and vocabulary, a most valu- 
 able and remarkable monument of the English language. Written midway between 
 Chaucer and Spenser, it is infinitely more easy to read than either. Page after page, 
 even in the antique spelling of Pynson's edition, may be read by the ordinary reader 
 of to-day without reference to a dictionary, and when reference is required, it will be 
 found in nine cases out of ten that the archaism is Saxon, not Latin."j

 forgery. According to the preface, this unique volume, the BoIe 
 example of ancient Egyptian illustrated literature which has come 
 down to us, was diaoovered juat after the battle of Tel el Kebir by a 
 savant who noticed some strange charaol era on a slab under the head 
 of a sleeping guardsman, and who watched his opportunity and dug 
 underneath this stony pillow until he discovered this Illustrated 
 MS. of the year 1302 B.C. The leaves of the volume are made to 
 imitate papyrus, their edges are worn and rubbed, and the surface 
 of them is stained and discolored, as though by all the juicea of 
 the earth and all the waters of the Nile. The cover is of. brown 
 sackcloth, much torn and ravelled at the edges. A coarse green 
 string binds the leaves firmly to one another. One side of the cover is 
 ornamented with a broad peal of green wax, having an uncouth im- 
 pression of the head of 'KonigRuppsippoB.' Divers comical Egyp- 
 tian stories are told in verse, and the illustrations, with their com- 
 bination of modern humor and ancient form, are exceedingly laugh- 
 able. The whole thing looks as though it had been dug up out of 
 the earth, which, indeed, is what is pretended. The author of this 
 ingenious burlesque is Earl Maria Seyppel, a young Dusaeldorf artist, 
 who was assisted in his work by Professor Ebers and other eminent 
 Egyptologists."

 * * II ipjjg merits of Spenser are of so decided and exalted a 
 nature as to place him, in spite of every deduction, in the fame 
 class with Homer, Dante, "Shakespeare, and Milton. His versifica- 
 tion is in general uncommonly sweet and melodious; his powers of 
 description such, with respect to beauty, fidelity, and minute finish- 
 ing, as have not since been equalled ; while in strength, brUliancy, 
 and fertility of imagination, it will be no hyperbole to assert that 
 he takes precedence of almost every poet, ancient or modern."—

 *** The first EDITION of this exceedingly rare and curious Drama, from 
 wb-ich Milton is supposed to have derived some portion of the plot of ^'I^aradtse LosV 
 Some thirty authors have been cited as entitled to the credit of having probably or 
 possibly contributed something to the conception, the plan, or the execution of Mil- 
 ton's gi'eat poem. Quite recently a claim has been advanced for the Dutch poet, 
 JoosT van den Yondel (1687-1679), one of whose productionR — a tragedy called 
 *' LtrciFEE," acted at Amsterdam, and published in 1654 — describes the rebellion of 
 the Angels, and otherwise goes over much of the ground of •"Faradise LtiaV Milton, 
 it is argued, must have heard of this tragedy before he began his own epic, and may 
 have known Dutch sufficiently to read it.

 I *^* •' 1 do not care for a First Polio of Shakspeare. I rather prefer the common 
 F| editions of Rowe and Tonson, without notefl, and with plates, whioh, being so ex- 
 ecrably bad, serve as maps, or modest remembrancers to the text. On the contrary, 
 I cannot read Beaumont and Pletoher but in Folio. The Octavo editions are 
 painful to look at. I have no sympathy with them." — Lamb.

 how much may be traced in it of that style which marks his subsequent writings with 
 such peculiar excellence. It is reasonable to suppose, that his having been led to a

 *#* The initial letters of the first 29 verses'of jtheJFirst Book of this carious poem, 
 form the assumed name of the author, Marcellus Palingenius Stellatus, whose real name 
 was Pier Angela MartzoU. The many sarcasms contained in the poem against the 
 PopeJ Gardihals, and Ohurch of Rome, secured it a prominent place among the 
 first class of heretical books in the Index lAbrorum, Prohibitorwrn^ and the author's 
 body was exhumed and burned to ashes. Pope is supposed to have made liberal use

 *** " When we read this violent diatribe against all plays and players, and consider 
 that it was written at the very time that Shalcespeare's great worlcB had just been 
 given to the world, we cannot help thinking of ' the deaf adder that stoppeth her 
 ears,' etc. In his peroration the author says, ' Seeing that plays are inrioht with 
 fables, lies, dishonesties and aU kinds of knaveries : seeing the actors of them have 
 been counted ignominious . . . esteemed as vagabonds, corrupters of good man- 
 ners, subverters of religion in people's heartes & seducers of men to destruction . . . 
 then do I earnestly entreat every one as they love their own soules to detest & aban- 
 don them.' " 
 
 This is a grand example of the esteem in which Shakespeare's plays were held in his 
 own day.

 *** " The Decretals of Oregory IX., was promulgated as the great statute law of 
 Christendom, superior ia its authority to all secular laws as the interests of the soul 
 were to those of the body, as the Church was of greater dignity than the State ; as the 
 Pope higher than any one temporal sovereign, or all the sovereigns of the world. It 
 was ordered to be the authorized text in all courts and in all schools of law. Even in 
 its form it closely resembled the Roman law yet unabrogated in many parts of Europe."

 *^* *'Among the few modern boots which are really scarce may perhaps be included 
 the iirst edition of Mr. Frederick Locker's Lyra Elegantiarum, a collection 6t vers de 
 SodiU unique in its plan, complete and put together with deli«ate judgment. Any 
 bookseller's catalogue on which it occurs will tell you that the first edition was sup- 
 pressed because it^contained some of Lander's pieces. A fuller account of the matter 
 IB supplied by a note to a copy which was once the property of Mr. Francis Turner 
 Palgrave, himself the editor of one of the most popular anthologiea. extant, the ' Golden 
 Treasury.' Mr. Palgrave's note on the verso of the fly-title is as follows : 
 
 " ^ First Edition ijsuppressed at once in consequence of Mr. John Forster'a refusal to 
 allow the poems by W. S. Landor, whose copyright he was possessed of, to be here re- 
 published.' 
 
 " This note is dated March, 1867. The book was published as early as January, 1867, 
 Mr. Palgrave's date under his signature on the previous page being January 3. The 
 second edition is also dated 1867. And so here is one more piece of hard egotism to be 
 placed to the account of Mr. John Forster, who has managed to leave behind him one 
 of the least amiable memories in recent literature. The number of pieces from Lan- 
 dor is forty-one, and read in succession they give one a vivid notion of that writer's 
 chai-m and lightness of touch in a kind of verse that might have been thought alien to 
 his grave genius."

 *»* A magnificent copy of this rare volume of early French 
 poetry. The margins are wide, and this is one of the largest copies 
 known (135i millimetres) of this beautiful edition, printed in round 
 type and ornamented with woodcuts. 
 
 "One of the most remarkable compositions fumishediby the medi- 
 seval period in France is the Soman de la Hose. It is doubtful 
 whether any other poem of such a length has ever attained a popu- 
 larity so wide and so enduring. The Soman de la Hose extends to 
 more than twenty thousand lines, and is written in a very peculiar 
 style ; yet it maintained its vogue, not merely in France, but 
 throughout Europe, for nearly three hundred years from the date of 
 its commencement, and for more than two hundred from that of its 
 conclusion. The history of the composition of the poem is singular. 
 It was begun by William of Lorbis, of whom little or nothing is 
 known, but whose work must, so far as it is easy to make out, have 
 been done before 1260, and probably earlier. The poem in this state 
 extends to 4,670 lines, and ends quite abruptly. Forty or fifty years 
 later, Jean db Mbung (also called Olopinel from his lameness), con- 
 tinued it without preface, taking up William of Loeris' cue, and 
 extended it to 22,817 lines. It was frequently printed by the ear- 
 liest typographers of France, and in the sixteenth century it received 
 a fresh lease of life at the hands of Marot, who re-edited it. Abroad 
 it was praised by Petrarch and translated by Chaucer ; and it is on 
 the whole not too much to say that for f uUy two centuries it was the 
 favorite book in the vernacular literature of Europe. Nor was it un- 
 worthy of this popularity. The grace of the part due to William 
 of Lokris is remarkable, and the satirical vigor of the part due to 
 Jean de Mbung perhaps more remarkable still. But the real secret 
 of its vogue, as of all such vogues, is that it faithfully held up the 
 mirror to the later middle ages. In no single book can that period of 
 history be so conveniently studied."

 *^* The moat elaborate and authoritative of all recent works on playing cards, con- 
 ; taining a great many illustrations of all kinds, photogravures, steel engravings, wood- 
 [ cuts, and colored prints, 
 
 *** Also many inteeesting oueiosities connected with playing cards, including

5 East Seventeenth St., iV, Y. 103 
 
 ing the rich JSarlequin cards of TifEany & Co., almost equally rich packs from Frank- 
 fort» an early American paok with curiously crude desigas, and a pack of English 
 character cards. Among the eight French packs is a pack of fortune-telling tarots, 
 a pack made for the Spanish maiket, packs illustrating! the fashions, Dumas's 
 " Tftree ff ?*ard«77ie7i " and contemporary sovereigns, also two miniature packs, the 
 smallest of which is about half the size of a postage stamp. The ten German packs 
 include several adorned with steel engravings of German landscapes at Baden and on 
 the Rhine, a Jockey club pack, a pack commemorating the Sohiitzenfeet of July, 1862, 
 at Frankfort, a very elaborately adorned illustrated pack, and two packs of common 
 tarots as used by the lower classeB. Among the six Swiss packs are four packs of the 
 tarots used to-day and curiously like the old tarots, and one pack with colored steel 
 engravings of Swiss scenery. 
 
 Among the American packs is a box of the old circular glohe playing cards, pat- 
 ented in 1874, and a most extraordmary set of Brazilian magic musical cards, by 
 means of which an endless succession of new music may be composed. 
 
 The gem of the collection is a duplicate set (the second not complete) of the very 
 scarce heraldic pack issued in the middle of the seventeenth century. These cards are 
 illustrated in Boiteau d'Ambly (p. 139) and in Taylor (plate 88), but as Willshire omits 
 them there is probably no such set in the collection of the^Biitish^Museum.j 
 
 The cuttings are in a^scrap-book.

 *«* " The most amusing of all our early classical poems is a satire called ' The Mirror 
 of Foola,'' written by Nigel Wibbckeb, a monk of Canterbury. The hero, Brunellns, 
 is literally an Ass, who, ambitious of distinction, studies in the UniverBity o£ Paris, 
 and successively all the monastic orders. Dissatisfied both with the learned men and 
 the monks, he seta about forming a new sect of his own, but, caught by his old master, 
 he is compelled to resume his natural station, and close his life carrying panniers."

 *' The only known manuscript of the ' Treatyse of Fysshynge,' formerly in the pos- 
 session of Mr. William Herbert, afterward of Mr. Joseph Haslewood, and now in the 
 
 , famous Deniaon collection, has been examined by Mr. Satchell, who finds it to con- 
 tain an independent text, of a date not later than 1450. It is drawn from the same 
 original as that printed in 1496, but instead of the ' readings between it and the 
 printed copy ' being, as stated in the preface to Mr. Pickering's reprint, 1827, ' very 
 few and unimportant,' it varies the phrase throughout, and in many places alters the 
 sense, besides containing many short passages not included in the printed version."

 *»* A large cut of vessels filled with fools is inserted between 
 the Latin and English titles. The English is in black letter, and the 
 Latin in Roman, in the same order as in the Pynson edition. The 
 wood-cuts, including the one on the title-page, number 117. They 
 are the same as those of Pynson's edition. The borders only differ, 
 being of a uniform type, while those of the previous edition are 
 wood-cuts of several patterns. 
 
 " Barclay's ' Ship of Fools ' is not only important as a picture 
 of the English life and popular feeling of his time, it is, both in 
 style and vocabulary, a most valuable and remarkable monument 
 of the English language. Written midway between Chaucer and 
 Spenser, it is infinitely more easy to read than either. Page after 
 page, even in the antique spelling of Pynson's edition, may be read 
 by the ordinary reader of to-day without reference to a dictionary, 
 and when reference is required, it will be found in nine cases out of 
 ten that the archaism is Saxon not Latin."

 *^* '* Among the ■ few modern books which are really scarce may perhaps be 
 included the first edition of Mr. Frederick Locker's L]/ra Elegautiarum, a collection 
 of vera de Societe unique in its plan, complete, and put together with delicate judg- 
 ment. The first edition was suppressed because it contained some of Lander's 
 pieces. A fuller account of the matter is supplied by a note to a copy which was 
 ' once the property of Mr. Francis Turner Palgrave, himself the editor of one of the 
 most popular anthologies extant, the * Golden Treasury.' Mr. Palgrave's note on 
 the verso of the fly-title is as follows : 
 
 " ' First Edition : Suppressed at once in consequence of Mr. John Forster's refusal 
 to allow the poems by W. S. Landor, whose copyright he was possessed of, to be here 
 republished.' '

 *„;'* First Edition printed by Anthony Verard of this famous book. It 
 accords exHctly with the description given by Brunei. It has, as he describes, 143 
 leaves, printed in two columns of forty- three lines each, without pagination or catch- 
 words, but with signatures, and the last leaf bearing on the recto a large woodcut 
 of the author in his library, with the reverse quite blank. Brunet does not, how- 
 ever, seem to have known of this particular iasi^e, which diflEers from that which he 
 describes in not having the printer's mark on the title, and is therefore probably the 
 earlier impression.

 *** " When we read this violent diatribe against all plays and players, and consider 
 that it was written, at the very time that Shakespeare^s great works had just been 
 given to the world, we cannot help thinking of * the deaf adder that stopeth her 
 ears,' etc. In his peroration the author says, ' Seeing that plays arc inricht with 
 fables, lies, dishonesties and al] kinds of knaveries : seeing the actors of them have 
 been counted ignominious . . . esteemed as vagabonds, corrupters of good man- 
 ners, Bubverters of religion in people's heartes & seducers of men to destruction . . . 
 then do I earnestly entreat every one as they love their own soules to detest &i aban- 
 . don them.' " 
 
 This is a grand example of the esteem in which Shakespeare's plays were held in 
 his own day.

 unknown; the drawings have been attributed to J. Goujon, Jean 
 Cousin, Giovanni Bellino, RafEaeUe, and others. The question as to 
 the original designer will probably give rise to many discussions in

 ful of all sorts of art dependent on blotch, or burr, or any other 
 ' process ' than that of steaidy hand and true line) : out of which dis- 
 dain, nevertheless, some of the plates came into effects both right

 subject of the 9th Plate 1 prepared a new drawing, which has been 
 admirably engraved by Mr. Armytage. The lettering and other

 In a paper on the plates to Pickwick (by S. Buss, in The Academp, December 4, 
 1880), it is stated that on the death of Robert Seymour, *' Messrs. Chapman and Hall 
 were not without offers from artists anxious to share the honour of contributing to 
 this famous publication, some of them being willing to undertalce the work without 
 any payment whatever. Among these applicants was W. M. Thackeray, who had 
 practised etciiing for some years, having received instructions from Mr. Roe of Cam- 
 bridge, dnring his undergraduate course at that university. But his proposal was 
 declined. Thackeray himself mentioned this episode in his life at one of the Royal 
 Academy dinners : — 
 
 *' I can remember when Mr. Dickens was a very young man, and had commenced 
 delighting the world with some charming humourous works, in covers which were 
 coloured light green, and came out once a month, that this young man wanted an 
 artist to illustrate his writings ; and I recollect walking up to bis chambers in Pur- 
 nival's Inn, with two or three drawings in my hand, which, strange to say, he did 
 not find suitable."

 *,* This volume actually contains six different parts or disserta- 
 tions ; but in making the above abridged transcript of the title-page, it 
 was thought sufficient to indicate only the First Part and the Third 
 Part (the letter of Columbus). The early authors, when referring 
 to the "first letter of Columbus" generally quote this collection. 
 The full title of this letter occupying pages 110-131, runs thus :

 *^* As indicated by the title, this work contains the three de- 
 cades of Peter Martyr d'Anghiera, " counsellor of the late sovereigns 
 of Spain, Ferdinand and Isabella," and '• sets forth in a copious, 
 faithful, and learned manner everything concerning the countries 
 recently discovered that may captivate the attention of the reader 
 curious of novelties. " Also, "three books of the same concerning 
 his embassy to Babylon [Cairo], which, besides the finest specimen 
 of oratorical talent, exhibits, in language m ost elegant and of the high- 
 est interest to the reader, every remarkable thing seen by him on the 
 subject of the customs and institutions of the different nations." 
 
 *,* One of the most valuable of sources for the history of the dis- 
 covery of America, the author being at once the friend of Columbus, 
 Vespucci, and Cabot.

 *,j* A beautiful tall copy of the first and excessively rare edition 
 of the publication known among historians as the " Nuevas Leyes." 
 Bich calls the volume "the_/irsi collection of printed laws relating 
 to the New World ; " and Ternaux, " le premier recueil qui ait fete 
 publie." It is not, however, a collection or " Eecopilacion," but 
 two ordinances of Charles V., issued especially to insure the better 
 treatment of the Indians, and for limiting the partition of lands 
 among the conquerors. Leon Pinelo states, on the authority of 
 Juan de Grijalva, that these laws " tan odiosas," were prompted by 
 the publication of the manuscript tract, " Diez y seis remedies contra 
 la peste que destruye las Indias." They were issued at Barcelona, 
 Nov. 20, 1542, completed at Valladolid, July 4, 1543, and ordered 
 to be printed and enforced immediately throughout the Indies. 
 They were announced by the public herald in Mexico, May 34, 1544.

 *#* An elaborate description of this superb work is given in M. Em. Boucher's 
 Catalogue d^'Aug. de S.iint-Aubin. It is embellished with an emblematic full-pnse 
 frontispiece, containing the portrait of Louis-Philippe, the Duke of Orleans, and 2 
 head-pieces by Cochin and Saiiit-Aubin, 56 charming tail-pieces, and 179 fine full- 
 page engravings from ancient cameos and intaglios. The first volume ends with a 
 beautiful allegorical design by the Countess Eleonore de Sabran. The last engraving 
 or tail-piece of the second volume contains 12 highly finished medallion-portraits of 
 the Orleans family. 
 
 *' Of all memorials from antiquity, there are hardly any from which a more varied 
 and refined instruction may be drawn than from engraved stones. They exhibit with 
 marvellous distinctness the images and attributes of the ancient deities, the features 
 of great men and distinguished personages. Some of these cameos reveal to us 
 curious details of primitive beliefs ; others, again, represent religious and moral 
 allegories or present beautiful fragments of Greek sculpture. Many of these en- 
 graved gems combine beauty of material with perfection of execution. . . . For 
 various reasons, they assuredly deserve the attention of the scholar, artist, philos- 
 opher, archjeologist, and the man of refined taste." Preface.

 *»* This work is in every respect a remarkably fine specimen of 
 early gothio or black-letter printing in Italy, and bears the distinct- 
 ive marks of a genuine ineunabidum. It consists of 187 leaves with- 
 out pagination, printed in double columns of 40 lines each. The 
 large initial letters are colored in red and blue ink, and all the small 
 capital letters throughout the text are rubricated or marked with 
 lines in red ink. Like the first products of the early typographic 
 art, it lacks a separate title-page indicative of the date and place. 
 Brunet, Haiu, and Graesse — bibliographers whose dicta carry the 
 greatest authority — all agree, however, in recording this work as 
 printed in 1496 atBrixia.

 *^* Thia copy is printed on yellow paper, one of 10 bo printed. 
 *#* Thifi is a fac-simile reprint of the famous sale -catalogue of Count de Fortsas, 
 facile princeps among modern bibliographical hoaxers. It contains a detailed de- 
 scription of his books, each of them, to say the least, worth its weight in gold. This 
 wonderful collection was announced to be sold on a certain day in 1840 by auction. 
 An extraordinary excitement was created among book-colleators, who from far and 
 
 [near flocked together at Binche, a small town in Belgium, where the sale was to take 
 place. The day before the sale, however, the newspapers of Brussels contained a 
 notice that the little town had bought the entire collection for its public library. 
 This is not the place for narrating all the serio-comic incidents of this rude practical 
 joke ; suffice it to say that the whole affair from first to last was a downright canard. 
 The Count de Fortsas and his book-treasures were found to be a myth. As to the 
 catalogue it had unquestionably been prepared with all the savoir-faire of an expert in 
 
 j bibliography ; the titles of the books with the appended notes seem bo attractive and 
 authentic that one almost regrets that this unique collection was only " airy nothing," 
 without a *' local habitation " beyond this catalogue, which will always occupy a fore- 
 most though unenviable place in the annals of bibliographical hoaxing.

 *,* This iB a new work by Mr. Hamerton, similar in importance 
 to "The Graphic Arts." It consists of a series of Chapters or 
 Essays on landscape in nature, literature, and art, in which, al- 
 though Painting is not unfrequently referred to, there is little of 
 a technical character and nothing likely to repel a general reader 
 who takes some interest in landscape. The text includes an analy- 
 sis of various important divisions of natural landscape and studies 
 of literature in connection with it. Other subjects treated at length 
 are the association of architecture with landscape, the choice of 
 places of residence and sites of houses, and the degree of injury or 
 improvement resulting to natural landscape from human industry 
 and habitation . 
 
 The sea is included amongst the subjects of study, especially in 
 connection with shipping and coast scenery. Several chapters are 
 given to lakes and rivers, of which the author has an intimate 
 knowledge, both from his artistic studies and his love of aquatic 
 recreation. 
 
 Mr. Hamerton, while considering the eflEects of human industry 
 on landscape, has not neglected the presence of men and animals as 
 adjuncts to landscape in nature and the graphic arts.

 1978 SAUVAGES (Les) de L'EUROPE [Par LOUVEL]. 
 16nio, full red morocco, gilt back and edges, with the 
 arms of Madame la marquise de Pompadour stamped 
 on both sides (by Derome). A Eeklin [Paris], 
 MDCCXX (1760). [Sold.] 
 
 *:,* This copy was presented by Louvel, the author, to Mme. la 
 Marquise de Pompadour, whose anna are on both sides of the cover. 
 It contains an original poetic dedication of the book to her in the 
 handwriting of the author and signed by him. Louvel's name is not 
 on the printed title-page, but in the catalogue of the books of Mme. 
 de Pompadour, this book is entered as follows : " No. 1974, Les 
 Sauvages de I'Europe, par M. Louvel. Berlin [Paris], 1760, in-12. 
 m. r." (m. r., maroquin rouge — red morocco). Some bel espnt has 
 added a very amusing line to the end of Louvel's complimentary 
 dedication. A bookplate or escutcheon with the motto " L'honneur 
 & L'amour," shows that the work once belonged to Merard de St. 
 Just, maitre d'hotelto " Monsieur," afterward Louis XVIII., better 
 known, however, as a book-lover. It is told that he once sent a case 
 with his most precious books to America. By a stroke of ill-luck 
 they were captured on the way by the English in December, 1783. 
 On hearing of this mishap, he is said to have good-humoredly re- 
 marked ■' that it would still be a con? elation to him, if only the per- 
 sons into whose hands the books had fallen, were able to appreciate 
 the treasure to its full value." The bookplate of G. de Pixerecourt, 
 a still more famous bibliophile, is affixed to one of the blank leaves 
 with the motto, " Un livre est un ami qui ne change jamais." 
 
 This is one of those books to which the saying " Habent sua fata 
 libelli," may with full truth be applied. It will assuredly prove a 
 real treasure-trove in the hands of the collector, lover, or admirer 
 of whatever is absolutely unique in character and bears the impress 
 of historical associations.

 *«* Ko small sensation was caused in the literary world by the discorery of the ex- 
 traordinary forgeries of the Shelley Letters, printed in this volume They were sold 
 at a large price to Mr. Moxon, who published them in 1852, after they had been ex- 
 amined and thought genuine by Mr. Sotheby, an expert in such matters. No 
 doubts as to their genuineness were expressed in a review which appeared in the 
 Atheneeum shortly after their publication, A fortnight later, however, the same 
 paper announced the startling intelligence that, with two or three exceptions, the 
 letters from which the volume was printed were iforgeries. The discovery was singu- 
 larly made. It was thus, as stated in the Athenaeum : " Mr. Moxon gent a copy of 
 the book to Mr, Tennyson, During a visit which Mr, Falgrave was paying to Mr. 
 Tennyson, he dipped in the Shelley volume, and lighted upon a letter written from 
 Florence to Godwin, the better half of which he at once recognized as part of an 
 article on Florence, written for the Quarterly Eeview so far back as 1840, by his 
 father. Sir Francis Palgrave, who, after comparing the printed letter with the printed 
 article, wrote at once to Mr. Moxon informing him that the letter, by whomsoever 
 written, was a ' crib ' from an article which he had written for the Quarterly He- 
 view,

 *#* These two works contain a series of superb illustrations, engraved and 
 printed in difEerent colors, artistically colored inside covers, extra inside silk covers 
 enriched with designs by Avril, not duplicated in the text. 
 
 L'BvENTAiL is sumptuously bound in blue crushed Levant morocco, super extra, 
 in Jansen style, doubl6 with red morocco, ornamented compartments, corners with 
 delicate toolings {aux petits fer8\ an emblematic design elaborately tooled, fly-leaves 
 of antique watered silk, gilt edges, ''t6moins," and a sliding case. L'Ombrklle is 
 bound in red crushed Levant morocco, super extra, doublfi with blue morocco, the 
 binding in other respects similar to the preceding volume. 
 
 This almost matchleBS copy of L'Bventail has all the lustre of freshness, and was 
 printed in a highly artistic style hefore the copies on Japan paper. Added to this 
 copy is an engraving of the "'Fan" from the '•^Double Collection^" printed in several 
 colors, and a series of full-page illustrations separately printed on Japan paper, and 
 with extra inside silk covers. 
 
 The following passages are translated from the bibliographical description which 
 accompanies the two volumes: — " By comparing the number of copies at my dis- 
 posal, I succeeded in distinguishing four varieties of engravings with regard to fine- 
 ness and delicacy of execution, all of which, however, belong to the * Fiebt Class.' 
 In the first variety the engravings seemed to me of such a fineness, that I believe 
 they have been struck off before the hardening of the plates. Impressions of this 
 description are at all events of the greatest rarity," 
 
 The variation or error occurring in the early impressions, by which they can be 
 distinguished from the copies on Japan paper, shows that they were struck off before 
 these latter. The early impressions can hardly exceed thirty in number. The fine- 
 ness of the impressions, their rarity, and the fact that they were printed before those 
 on Japan paper, will probably give them a value, the maximum of which it would be 
 diflScult to estimate exactly. 
 
 The following shows the variation or error occurring in the early impressions by 
 which they can be recognized. At the lower margin of page 4 occur the following 
 words : 
 
 * Sole ou de moroq ; 
 que Boucher nous ' . . . . 
 
 while all other copies have : 
 
 ' Sole ou de moroq, 
 que Fragonard no ^ . . . . 
 
 1 1 call the first of these copies for artiste impressions (" Genre artiste,") because I 
 consider them as the most beautiful with regard to the printing. 
 
 L'Ombbelle forms a magnificent companion volume to the preceding work, Itcon- 
 tains the portrait of the author, Octave Uzanne, by Avril, in two tints, on Japan 
 paper, and a series of extra Engravings printed on Japan paper. This volume 
 includes a bibliography of the two works, by Gr. Brunox (Paris, 1883), fi-om which the 
 following extract is translated : — " By comparing a number of copies, one with 
 another, I noticed the inequality of the tints in the engraving at page 65, where 
 a darkish-brown passes over into a clear violet one. I soon afterwards became aware 
 of an error or variation in a copy on Japan paper. At the top of page 65 the text 
 reads : 
 
 ' treses sous la plui des bou — 
 levards ; on nous a peint le ' . . . , 
 
 while in most of the ordinary copies the following variation occurs : 
 
 ' tresse sou la plui des bou — 
 levards, on nous a peint le ' . . . . 
 
 Ordinary copies similar to those on Japan paper with the [error (treses) are very 
 [rare, and belong to the IHrst Ulass^ while Ithose .without the [error fall within the 
 Second Ciaas,'"

 *** Wither is one of tlie few masters of octosyllabic verse in our language. Charles 
 Lamb has dwelt lovingly on its curious felicities, and for compass and variety it would 
 not be easy to name its superior. Never was there a purer or more honorable spirit, 
 or one which kept closer to the best it knew ; and aa Wither has revealed himself in 
 his works in a way in which few poets have done, it is natural to read him not only 
 with admiration, but with sympathy."— W. T. Arnold.

 *»* This is a charming volume, to be read at ease iu a rustic seat, 
 or reclining on a green lawn or beneath taU trees. It is a book for 
 the meadows and lanes when the skies are blue and the birds are

 for the chimney-corner, which, amidst the chills of winter, will re- 
 mind us of the vanished beauty of midsummer. 
 
 It contains hitherto unpublished verses from the pen of Lord 
 Tennyson, Lord Lytton, Hamilton Aide, J. A. Symonds, and a 
 number of translations by Mrs. Herbert Hills. It is charmingly 
 illustrated and handsomely printed, and the matter is worthy of its 
 graceful form.
