We understand that several very important publications will shortly be issued from the Oxford University Press. We may first mention the _Fasti Catholici_, or _Universal Chronology_, by the Rev. Edward Greswell, author of the _Harmony of the Gospels_, _the Parables_, &c. It is stated that the present work, which contains the result of the indefatigable labour and research of the Editor for several years, is a still more learned and elaborate production than any of his previous publications. Another, which will excite great attention, is a _Catalogue of the Manuscripts contained in the Libraries of the Twenty-four Colleges and Halls of the University of Oxford_, which has been prepared by the Rev. Henry Octavius Coxe, ore of the sub-librarians of the Bodleian Library, editor of _Roger of Wendover's Chronicle_, and of Lewis's _Collection of Forms of Bidding Prayer_, from the manuscript in the Bodleian Library. And, lastly, we may mention a reprint of Bishop Burnet's _Lives of the Dukes of Hamilton_, which is usually considered as a supplement to Spottiswoode's _History of the Church of Scotland_.
