A magnificent edition—to our taste the _most_ magnificent edition—of Robinson Crusoe. The designs by Grandville are in a very superb style of art—bold, striking, and original—the _drawing_ capital. * * * * * _Somerville Hall, or Hints to those who would make Home Happy.

An interesting note on the poem “Agathè.—A Necromaunt, In Three Chimeras” found in this issue of Graham’s is that it was plagiarized by Mr. Tasistro. It was previously published as a stand alone publication in 1831, titled “Death-Wake, or Lunacy, A Necromaunt. In Three Chimeras.” by Thomas T. Stoddart. Copies of Mr. Stoddart’s poem can be found online for those interested in comparing the two. page 64, Miss Mary, having completed ==> Miss Catherine, having completed page 64, Miss Catherine made some objection ==> Miss Mary made some objection [End of _Graham’s Magazine, Vol. XX, No. 1, January 1842_, George R.
