CUVIER.--HISTOIRE NATURELLE DES MAMMIFERES, avec des Figures Originales Enluminées, Dessinées d'après les Animaux vivants, ouvrage publié sous l'Autorité de l'Administration du Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle, par F. CUVIER et E. GEOFFROY SAINT-HILAIRE, 3 vols. royal folio, _containing 360 exquisitely coloured plates of animals_, (published at 47l 5s) _very splendidly half-bd. turkey morocco, gilt edges_, 24l *** The advertiser having purchased of the Parisian publishers all the remaining copies of this magnificent work, is enabled to offer them at the above extremely reduced price. This is the finest work on mammiferous animals ever published in any country, and has always been considered, both for the high talent displayed in the text and the extremely beautiful execution of the plates, which resemble drawings, as taking the first place in the class to which it belongs. As very few copies remain for sale, and the price is so extremely low, the book must soon become scarce, and rise in value. "Un des ouvrages les plus exacts et les mieux exécutés que l'on ait encore donnés sur les Mammifères."--_Brunet._ "It is unnecessary to dilate upon the splendid style in which this work is brought out, or on the ability and fidelity that characterise as well the figures as the descriptions contained in it, since these must be well known to all who have seen any of the numbers. It will doubtless form the standard work of reference for the Mammalia. Necessarily too expensive for general circulation, public libraries, and the collections of the rich can alone possess it; but to these it is indispensable; while the manner in which it is executed renders it worthy of a place by the side of their most costly and elegant volumes."--_Zoological Journal._ DENNY'S MONOGRAPHIA PSELAPHIDARUM ET SCYDMÆNIDARUM BRITANNIÆ; or an Essay on the British Species of the Genera Pselaphus of Herbst, and Scydmænus of Latreille, in which those Genera are subdivided, and all the Species hitherto discovered in Great Britain are accurately described and arranged, with an Indication of the Situations in which they are usually found, 8vo. _with 14 coloured plates, containing 40 Figures of Beetles_, (pub. at 1l 1s) _extra cloth bds_. 12s Norwich, 1825 This volume has for some time been considered scarce, and sold for more than the published price.
