This is one of the most available and valuable bibliographical works
extant. Its object is indicated by its title. Such a book should be in
the possession of every student, scholar, book-collector, and
librarian. There is hardly a subject which can attract the attention
of an inquisitive mind, which is not included in this collection, and
the titles of the best books, in different languages, which relate to
it given in full, with the various editions, and their price. It would
be needless to dilate upon the value of such a work. The compilers
deserve the highest credit for the labor, intelligence, and expense
they have devoted to it. The cost is but one dollar.
_Sybil Lennard, a Record of Woman's Life._
Mrs. Grey is one of the most popular novel writers of the present day,
and Sybil Lennard is unquestionably the best of her works. It is
published by Mr. T. B. Peterson, by whom the advance sheets were
procured from England.
_Chambers' Miscellany._
Part No. 5, of Chamber's interesting Miscellany has been published,
and the articles it contains are of the highest order of excellence.
Messrs. Zieber & Co. are the Philadelphia publishers.

POSTHUMOUS WRITINGS OF JOSEPH C. NEAL, ESQ.--We have several admirable
Charcoal Sketches by Mr. Neal--a rich legacy bequeathed expressly to
us by our gifted and lamented friend. Now that the fountain, whose
outpourings have so often enriched our pages, is forever closed, these
gems of genius will have a new and peculiar value. We commence their
publication in our present number.

THE NEW YORK MIRROR.--This journal is edited with surpassing ability;
and its continued and advancing popularity is creditable to the taste
of the community in which it is published. Spirited, independent, and
liberal, it not merely, as its name indicates, reflects the light of
the age, but shines with a lustre of its own. It is well worthy its
good fortune.
