BOOKS RECEIVED.--_The Relations between the Holy Scriptures and some parts of Geological Science_, the fifth edition of a well-known and much esteemed work by the late Dr. Pye Smith, forms the new issue of Bohn's _Scientific Library_. His _Antiquarian Library_ has been enriched by the publication of the second volume of _The Works of Sir Thomas Browne_, containing the last three books of the _Vulgar Errors_, his _Religio Medici_, and _The Garden of Cyrus_. The fifth volume of _The Works of Plato_, containing the _Laws_, translated by George Burges, has been added to the _Classical Library_. _Home Truths for Home Peace_, or, _"Muddle" Defeated; a Practical Inquiry into what chiefly mars or makes the Comfort of Domestic Life, chiefly addressed to Young Housewives_, is an attempt at the exposure and destruction of their most insidious and deadly enemy, and deserves to be well known for the good sense, right feeling, and quaint humour, with which its praiseworthy object is inculcated. Lebahn's _Henry von Eichenfels_, _Wonderful History of Peter Schlemihl_, _Egmont by Goethe_, _Wilhelm Tell by Schiller_. Although there is no royal road to learning, it is unquestionable that the journey may be shortened, and the path rendered less wearisome by the company of judicious guides. The four books edited by M. Falck Lebahn, whose titles we have just enumerated, consisting of well-known masterpieces of his country's literature, each accompanied by a vocabulary, complete, both as regards the words and the difficult phrases in the several works to which they are attached, belong to this class, and will greatly facilitate the self instructor in his acquirement of a language which is not only one of the richest in Europe in indigenous works, but far richer than any other in its translations from all other languages.
