HISTORY of ENGLAND. By Sir JAMES MACKINTOSH, Vol. I. "Our anticipations of this volume were certainly very highly raised, and unlike such anticipations in general, they have not been disappointed. A philosophical spirit, a nervous style, and a full knowledge of the subject, acquired by considerable research into the works of preceding chroniclers and historians, eminently distinguish this popular abridgment, and cannot fail to recommend it to universal approbation. In continuing his work as he has begun, Sir James Mackintosh will confer a great benefit on his country."-Lond. Lit. Gazette. HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir WALTER SCOTT, 2 vols. HISTORY of IRELAND. By THOMAS MOORE, 1 vol.

II. HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir WALTER SCOTT, Bart. in 2 vols. 12mo.

The History of Scotland, by Sir Walter Scott, we do not hesitate to declare, will be, if possible, more extensively read, than the most popular work of fiction, by the same prolific author, and for this obvious reason: it combines much of the brilliant colouring of the Ivanhoe pictures or by-gone manners, and all the graceful facility of style and picturesqueness of description of his other charming romances, with a minute fidelity to the facts of history, and a searching scrutiny into their authenticity and relative value, which might put to the blush Mr. Hume and other professed historians. Such is the magic charm of Sir Walter Scott's pen, it has only to touch the simplest incident of every day life, and it starts up invested with all the interest of a scene of romance; and yet such is his fidelity to the text of nature, that the knights, and cerfs, and collared fools with whom his inventive genius has peopled so many volumes, are regarded by us as not mere creations of fancy, but as real flesh and blood existences, with all the virtues, feelings and errors of common place humanity."-Lit. Gaz.

Valuable Works

VII. SKETCHES of CHINA, with Illustrations from Original Drawings. By W. W. WOOD, in 1 vol. 12mo. "The residence of the author in China, during the years 1826-7-8 and 9, has enabled him to collect much very curious information relative to this singular people, which he has embodied in his work; and will serve to gratify the curiOsity of many whose time or dispositions do not allow them to seek, in the voluminous writings of the Jesuits and early travellers, the information contained in the present work. The recent discussion relative to the renewal of the East India Company's Charter, has excited much interest; and among ourselves, the desire to be further acquainted with the subjects of the Celestial Empire" has been considerably augmented."

VIII. FALKLAND, a Novel, by the Author of PELHAM, &c. 1 vol. 12mo.

IX. MEMOIR on the TREATMENT of VENE REAL DISEASES WITHOUT MERCURY, employed at the Military Hospital of the Val-de-Grace. Translated from the French of H. M. J. Desruelles, M. D. &c. To which is added, Observations by G. J. Guthrie, Esq. and various documents, showing the results of this Mode of Treatment, in Great Britain, France, Germany, and America, 1 vol. 8vo.

X. PRINCIPLES of MILITARY SURGERY, comprising Observations on the Arrangements, Police, and Practice of Hospitals, and on the History, Treatment, and Anomalies of Variola and Syphilis; illustrated with cases and dissections. By JOHN HENNEN, M. D. F. R. S. E. Inspector of Military Hospitals-first American from the third London edi. tion, with Life of the Author, by his son, Dr. JOHN HENNEN. "The value of Dr. Hennen's work is too well appreciated to need any praise of ours. We were only required then, to bring the third edition before the no tice of our readers; and having done this, we shall merely add, that the volume merits a place in every library, and that no military surgeon ought to be without it."-Medical Gazette.

"It is a work of supererogation for us to eulogize Dr. Hennen's Military Surgery; there can be no second opinion on its merits. It is indispensable to the mi litary and naval surgeon."-London Medical and Surgical Journal.

XI. PATHOLOGICAL and PRACTICAL RESEARCHES on DISEASES of the STOMACH, the INTESTINAL CANAL, the LIVER, and other VISCERA of the ABDOMEN. By JOHN ABERCROMBIE, M. D.

"We have now closed a very long review of a very valuable work, and al though we have endeavoured to condense into our pages a great mass of impor tant matter, we feel that our author has not yet received justice."-Med. Chir Review.

XII. A COLLECTION of COLLOQUIAL PHRASES on every Topic necessary to maintain Conversation, arranged under different heads, with numerous remarks on the peculiar pronunciation and use of various words-the whole so disposed as considerably to facilitate the acquisition of a correct pronunciation of the French, By A. BOLMAR. One

vol. 18mo.

XIII. A SELECTION of ONE HUNDRED PERRIN'S FABLES, accompanied by a Key, containing the text, a literal and free translation, arranged in such a manner as to point out the difference between the French and the English idiom, also a figured pronunciation of the French, according to the best French works extant on the subject; the

whole preceded by a short treatise on the sounds of the French language, compared with those of the English.

XIV. The First Eight Books of the ADVENTURES of TELEMACHUS, accompanied by a Key to facilitate the translation of the work.

XV. A TREATISE on PATHOLOGICAL ANATOMY, by WILLIAM E. HORNER, M. D. Adjunct Professor of Anatomy in the University of Pennsylvania.

"We can conscientiously commend it to the members of the profession, as a satisfactory, interesting, and instructive view of the subjects discussed, and as well adapted to aid them in forming a correct appreciation of the diseased conditions they are called on to relieve."-American Journal of the Medical Sciences, No. 9.

XVI. A New Edition of a TREATISE of SPECIAL and GENERAL ANATOMY, by the same author, 2 vols. 8vo. XVII. COXE'S AMERICAN DISPENSATORY, containing the Natural, Chemical, Pharmaceutical and Medical History of the different substances employed in medicine, together with the operations of Pharmacy illustrated and explained, according to the principles of modern Chemistry. To which are added Toxicological and other tables, the prescriptions for Patent Medicines, and various Miscellaneous Prepa rations. Eighth Edition, Improved and greatly Enlarged. By JOHN REDMAN COXE, M. D. Professor of Materia Medica and Pharmacy in the University of Pennsylvania. In 1 vol. 8vo.

XVIII. An ESSAY on REMITTENT and INTERMITTENT DISEASES, including generically Marsh Fever and Neuralgia-comprising under the former, various anomalies, obscurities, and consequences, and under a new systematic view of the latter, treating of tic douloureux, sciatica, headache, ophthalmia, tooth-ache, palsy, and many other modes and consequences of this generic disease; by JOHN MACCULLOCH, M. D., F. R. S. &c. &c. Physician in Ordinary to his Royal Highness Prince Leopold, of Saxe Cobourg.

"Dr. Macculloch is a great philosopher and logician. His views are calculated to do much good. We have therefore taken great pains to concentrate and diffuse them widely through the profession. Nothing but a strong conviction that the work before us contains a multitude of valuable gems, could have induced us to bestow so much labour on the review. In rendering Dr. Macculloch's work more accessible to the profession, we are conscious that we are doing the state some service."-Med. Chir. Review.

"We most strongly recommend Dr. Macculloch's treatise to the attention of our medical brethren, as presenting a most valuable mass of information, on a most important subject."-Am. Med. and Phys. Journal.

XIX. WISTAR'S ANATOMY, fifth edition, 2

vols. 8vo.

XX. The ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY, and DISEASES of the TEETH. BY THOMAS BELL, F. R. S., F. L. S. &c. In 1 vol. 8vo. with plates.

"Mr. Bell has evidently endeavoured to construct a work of reference for the practitioner, and a text-book for the student, containing a plain and practical digest of the information at present possessed on the subject, and results of the author's own investigations and experience.'"***"We must now take leave of Mr. Bell, whose work we have no doubt will become a class book on the important subject of dental surgery."-Medico-Chirurgical Review.

XXI. MORALS of PLEASURE, illustrated by Stories designed for Young Persons, in 1 vol. 12mo,

"The style of the stories is no less remarkable for its ease and gracefulness, than for the delicacy of its humour, and its beautiful and at times affecting simplicity. A lady must have written it-for it is from the bosom of woman alone, that such tenderness of feeling and such delicacy of sentiment-such sweet lessons of morality-such deep and pure streams of virtue and piety, gush forth to cleanse the juvenile mind from the grosser impurities of our nature, and prepare the young for lives of usefulness here, and happiness hereafter. We advise parents of young families to procure this little book-assuring them that it will have a tendency to render their offspring as sweet as innocent, as innocent as gay, as gay as happy. It is dedicatad by the author to her young Bedford friends, Anna and Maria Jay'-but who this fair author is, we cannot even guess. We would advise some sensible educated bachelor to find out."-N. Y. Com. Adv.

XXII. The PRACTICE of PHYSIC, by W. P. DEWEES, M. D. Adjunct Professor of Midwifery in the University of Pennsylvania, 2 vols. 8vo.

The profession need not be informed how much a work like that now published was wanted. It has been the particular object of the author to endeavour to accommodate the mode of managing the diseases of which he treats to the many pathological discoveries recently made, both in this country and in Europe; and having also availed himself of his long experience, he trusts that his work will remove many of the embarrassments experienced by practitioners.

XXIII. DEWEES on the DISEASES of CHILDREN, Third edition. In 8vo.

The objects of this work are, 1st, to teach those who have the charge of children, either as parent or guardian, the most approved methods of securing and improving their physical powers. This is attempted by pointing out the duties which the parent or the guardian owes for this purpose, to this interesting, but helpless class of beings, and the manner by which their duties shall be ful filled. And 2d, to render available a long experience to these objects of our affections, when they become diseased. In attempting this, the author has avoided as much as was possible, "technicality;" and has given, if he does not flatter himself too much, to each disease of which he treats, its appropriate and designating characters, with a fidelity that will prevent any two being confounded, together with the best mode of treating them, that either his own experience or that of others has suggested.

XXIV. DEWEES on the DISEASES of FEMALES. Second edition with additions. In Svo.

XXV. DEWEES'S SYSTEM of MIDWIFERY. Fourth edition, with additions.

XXVI. CHAPMAN'S THERAPEUTICS and MATERIA MEDICA. Fifth edition, with additions.

XXVII. The ATLANTIC SOUVENIR, for 1830, in elegant fancy leather binding, and with numerous embellishments by the best Artists.

The publishers have spared neither pains nor expense in endeavouring to render this, their fifth annual volume, still more worthy the high degree of favour which its predecessors have enjoyed. All the impressions being from steel render them equally perfect, and the binding being a fancy leather, the whole will be rendered more permanent. In the list of Authors will be found many of the most distinguished writers in this country.

A few copies remain unsold of the ATLANTIC SOUVENIR, a Christmas and New Year's Present for 1827, 1828, and 1829, with numerous embellishments by the best Artists.

XXVIII. A CHRONICLE of the CONQUEST of GRENADA, by WASHINGTON IRVING, Esq. in 2 vols.

"On the whole, this work will sustain the high fame of Washington Irving. It fills a blank in the historical library which ought not to have remained so long a blank. The language throughout is at once chaste and animated; and the narrative may be said, like Spencer's Fairy Queen, to present one long gallery of splendid pictures. Indeed, we know no pages from which the artist is more likely to derive inspiration, nor perhaps are there many incidents in lite rary history more surprising than that this antique and chivalrous story should have been for the first time told worthily by the pen of an American and a re publican."-London Literary Gazette.

XXX. The WISH-TON-WISH, by the Author of the SPY, PIONEERS, RED ROVER, &c. in 2 vols. 12mo.

"We can conceive few periods better calculated to offer a promising field to the novelist than that which these pages illustrate;-the mingling of wildest adventure with the most plodding industry-the severe spirit of the religion of the first American settlers-the feelings of household and home at variance with all earlier associations of country--the magnificence of the scenery by which they were surrounded-their neighbourhood to that most picturesque and extraordi nary of people we call savages;-these, surely, are materials for the novelist, and in Mr. Cooper's hands they have lost none of their interest. We shall not attempt to detail the narrative, but only say it is well worthy of the high reputation of its author. All the more serious scenes are worked up to the highest pitch of excitement; if any where we have to complain of aught like failure, it is in the lighter parts, and some of the minor details, which are occasionally spun out too much."-London Literary Gazette.
