of evidence; and we hope there will also be catholicity of view, and liberality of deduction. Reynard the Fox is a capital child's book, that is, in its original form; we cannot say so much for the continuations. There are many admirable German tales, which might come under the same division with it. In the more graceful, as well as in the wilder legendary lore, The Empire is unrivalled. Translations from Steffens and Tieck would well repay the publisher. Impressions, Thoughts, and Sketches, 'during two years in France and Switzerland. By Martha Macdonald Lamont. London: Edward Moxon. Letters addressed by a daughter to her mother-and pleasant letters they are. The greater number were written during a twelvemonth's residence in Paris, and relate to the every-day indoor life of the French; though sometimes, we are told of sight-seeings, or visits to Marshal Macdonald, to whom, we presume, the authoress is distantly related; and sometimes have very fair criticisms on books. The later letters from Belgium and Switzerland, run more in the ordinary strain of tourists. Miss Lamont is lively, observant, well read; and does not philosophise, as she calls it, amiss. Her style is here and there ambitious, perhaps, from retouching for publication. She is a little too fond of nature, dear goddess;' and there are other feminine affectednesses, but the work is one of promise. Infant Salvation; or, an attempt to Prove that all who die in Infancy are Saved. By David Russell, D.D. Third Edition. Glasgow: James Maclehose. We are glad to see on our table a third edition of this admirable treatise, which leaves nothing to be desired on a subject of deep and general interest. The volume is distinguished by the same lucid arrangement, thorough investigation of all topics pertinent to the question, sound sense and evangelical spirit, which lend such a charm to the other productions of the author. Life in the Sick-room: Essays. By an Invalid. London: Edward Moxon. We like the general purpose of these essays-to show the subjects of incurable but slow disease that they are by no means shut out from usefulness or enjoyment; to suggest the trial of observations and employments, having in them more or less of solace and advantage; and to inculcate courageous submission, in place of indolent and peevish impatience. All this is good, so far as it goes, but in higher matters we are directly at issue with the writer-Miss Martineau, as we are informed. She accounts pain and sorrow to be in every case, and of necessity, purificatory, and, as might be expected, asserts the final happiness of all men. Nor is it any wonder, that while she speaks often of God, of sinfulness, faith, and prayer,—the Son of God, the great Sacrifice, Saviour, and Intercessor, should not be so much as named above three or four times in the two hundred and twenty pages. It is unnecessary to 743 say that the volume is well written, and will in various ways interest such as are able to discern between good and evil; but we cannot recommend it to invalids indiscriminately. The Poetical Works of Leigh Hunt. A New Edition. English Songs, and other Small Poems. A New Edition. London: Very neat editions, greatly improved, and issued at the low price of half-a-crown each. Mr. Moxon is determined to have no successful rival in the publication of elegant and cheap editions, of our poets, both living and dead. Literary Entelligence.
