3. Forester's _Norway in 1848 and 1849_: London, 1850. Conveys to the mind an excellent and very complete picture of Norwegian scenery, travelling, manners and customs, &c., and gives much valuable information. The plates are very truthful and characteristic. 4. Ross's _Yacht Voyage to Norway_ is not worth much; and 5. Jones's _Angler's Guide to Norway_ is worth less. 6. Barrow's _Visit to Iceland by way of Trondhjem in 1834_ contains much about some parts of Norway. Written in Norwegian, and published in Christiania, is a fine work entitled, _Norge Fremstillet i Tegninger_, 1848. The "Tegninger" are lithographs, eighty-two in number, and well executed and the descriptions are highly interesting. There is also now publishing a series of coloured plates of the Norwegian costumes, denominated _Norske Nationaldragter tegnede efter Naturen af forskjellige Norske kunstnere, og ledsagede med en oplysende Text_: Christiania, 1850. The plates are highly coloured, and the letter-press is in Norsk, German, and English. Mr. Schirmer of Christiania is also publishing a series of magnificent architectural drawings of the old cathedrals of Norway. There are several excellent maps of Norway, of which Munch's is the best but the only geological map is a very large and complicated one in many sheets, I think by Professor Keilhau. On the botany of Norway there are, Hartmann, _Handbok i Skandinaviens Flora_: Stockholm, 1843, and Lund, _Haandbog i Christianias phanerogame Flora_: Christiania, 1846. The Danish pharmacopoeia is still employed by the Norwegian apothecaries. On the dreadful disease found in the Bergen-Stift, called _Elephantiasis Græcorum_, or _Spedalskhed_, Doctors Danielssen and Boeck have put forth a work in French and Norwegian, embodying an immense deal of research and information, accompanied with an Atlas of twenty-four coloured plates. They consider this disease to be identical with the leprosy of Scripture. Their book was published in 1847; and contains references to every known account of the disease up to that date, in a bibliographical list of great length. An article upon it, comprehending a short but complete account of the disease, may be found in the _British and Foreign Med. Chir. Review for 1850_, vol. v. Of Norwegian national songs and music, there are, besides Lindeman's _Norske Field-Melodier_, the following publications:-- 1. _Folke Sange og Melodier, Fædrelandske og Fremmelse, udsalte for Pianoforte_, 1844. 2. _Sangsamling for Norske Selskabskredse: udgiven af det Norske Studenter-samfund_: Christiania, 1839. The students of the Christiania University have much taste for music, and are very fond of singing in parts and choruses. 3. _Scandinaviske Folkesange udsalte for Pianoforte af Niels W. Gade._
