HUBERT HERVEY, Student and Imperialist. A Memoir. By the Right Hon. EARL GREY, LATE ADMINISTRATOR OF RHODESIA. One vol., demy 8vo., with Photogravure Portrait and other Illustrations and a Map, 7s. 6d. EXTRACT FROM THE PREFACE. 'My knowledge of Hubert Hervey during the last few years of his short career, when he was serving the British South Africa Chartered Company, first in their London offices, and subsequently in responsible administrative posts in Rhodesia, led me to regard him as one of the most chivalrous and high-minded men it has been my privilege to meet. Such was the wealth of Hervey's strong individuality that he left to all who were acquainted with him an abundant store of memories, varied, original and characteristic. But the attraction of his personality was rooted and grounded in the yet deeper strata of great principles and high ideals.' CONTENTS. Chap. I. Eton and Cambridge.-II. Dreams in London.-III.

By JOSEPH R. FISHER, B.A., BARRISTER-AT-LAW. Demy 8vo., cloth. The Tsar's Manifesto of February 15, 1899, and the New Military Law, are regarded in Finland as a virtual abolition of the constitutional liberties solemnly guaranteed to the Grand Duchy by the Tsar Alexander I., and confirmed by all his successors. Finland is one of the most interesting States in Europe, and one of the least known to Englishmen, and this book aims at giving such an account of the land and people as will enable readers to understand and to sympathize with the Finlanders in their present trouble. The author has had exceptional opportunities of becoming acquainted at first hand with the constitutional issues in dispute, and in 'Finland and the Tsars' English readers will for the first time have an authentic account of the origin and significance of the last stand for liberty under the Russian Crown. 4 IN MOORISH CAPTIVITY: An Account of the 'Tourmaline' Expedition to Sus, 1897-1898. By HENRY M. GREY, A MEMBER OF THE EXPEDITION. One vol., demy 8vo., Illustrated, 16s. The author's 'hundred days in Morocco' formed probably as unpleasant an experience as has ever fallen to the lot of an Englishman. Trading in arms and ammunition with the subjects of a foreign potentate against his will is no sinecure, even if the potentate be only Sultan of Morocco. Deprived of the countenance of the British Government, the Tourmaline Expedition was unfortunate from the first. Mr. Grey graphically narrates the incidents of the voyage, the landing at Sus, and the treachery of the natives. Then followed the separation of the party by the Moorish cruiser Hassani, the author's capture and miserable march overland to Mogador, often in chains and subjected all the time to the grossest indignities.

BRITISH MERCHANT SEAMEN IN SAN FRANCISCO. By the REV. JAMES FELL. Crown 8vo., cloth, 3s. 6d. The author spent five years in San Francisco engaged in work connected with the Mission to Seamen, and during that period became thoroughly conversant at first hand with the dangers and difficulties that beset our sailors on the Pacific ports. His account of their troubles is extremely interesting, and written with a moderation that carries conviction. SUMMARY OF CONTENTS.

Lord Brassey, K.C.B., 'in pleasant recollection of many thousand miles in the Sunbeam, R.Y.S.' Mr. Pritchett has, in fact, enjoyed unique opportunities of cruising all over the world, and his collection of sketches of shipping and craft of various types, made on the spot, in every latitude, cannot fail to interest all lovers of the sea. Among the craft sketched will be found an immense variety of vessels large and small, commencing with the Royal Yacht Victoria and Albert, and ending with Malay proas at the Murray Islands in the Antipodes. Mr. Pritchett's skill as a marine painter is well known, and great care has been taken to reproduce his exquisite drawings with fidelity. The descriptive letterpress is enriched with many an anecdote and yarn from the author's world-wide experiences. 6 ANIMAL LIFE AND INTELLIGENCE. By C. LLOYD MORGAN, F.R.S., PRINCIPAL OF University College, Bristol; AUTHOR OF 'HABIT AND Instinct,' etc. A New Edition, entirely revised and largely rewritten, one vol., octavo. In revising this work the author, besides bringing the discussion as far as possible abreast of the most recent work and thought on the subject with which it deals, introduces the results of his own later investigations. He also aims at increased unity of plan, by making the whole discussion subservient to his central theme-a consideration of the rôle which has been played by consciousness in organic evolution. With this end in view much of the treatment is recast, some of the sections which seemed too technical, too metaphysical, or too divergent from the central theme, have been cut out, while others having more direct bearing on that theme have been introduced. The author trusts that any delay in the reissue which may be occasioned by thorough revision may be held justifiable if the work be thus rendered more distinctive in plan and less inadequate in execution.
