Bhagavad-Gita (The); or a Discourse between Krishna and Arjuna on Divine Matter, a Sanskrit philosophical poem, translated with notes, and an introduction on Sanskrit Philosophy, by J. Cockburn Thomson, square small 8vo. original unabridged edition, pp. cxix and 155, cloth, 108 6d Hertford, 1855 The Bhagavad Gita, which was written probably some time before the birth of Christ, and was inserted in the great epic poem Mahabharata, is not only a poem but also the greatest philosophical work which India has produced. It belongs to the Sankhya system—the most important of Hindu schools of philosophy-and is Pantheistic in its character. When we consider that the busy intellect of mankind has been engaged upon metaphysical inquiries for thousands of years, and that no advance has been made in real discovery, the teaching of the Bhagavad Gita is as valuable now as it ever has been, and offers a study as attractive as any other which exists for the student of the History of Religions. The introduction by Mr. Thomson, which gives with admirable condensation an analysis of the doctrines of all the Hindu systems of Philosophy, has long been acknowledged to be a masterpiece. British Museum Publications: SPANISH LANGUAGE in the BRITISH MUSEUM, Vol. I, stout 1875 This has long been a desideratum : and many students will rejoice to find that the labour of reference and inquiry is now enormously facilitated, so far as Spanish literature and history aro concerned. The name of the compiler enhances the value of the catalogue to no slight degree. Catalogue of Additions to the MANUSCRIPTS in the British Museum in the years 1854-1870— Additional MSS. 19,720-24,026, thick royal 8vo. x, 938 pp. cloth, 158 1875 “This collection includes the Correspondence of John Maitland, first Duke of Lauderdale, temp. 1642-82; Private Papers of Thomas Wentworth, Earl of Stafford, 1711-14 ; Lord Carteret, first Earl of Granville; Field-Marshal James O'Hara, second Lord Tyrawly, 1728-41; of Colonel Bouquet and General Sir Fred.

Bond. THE COLLECTION OF ANCIENT GREEK INSCRIPTIONS in the British Museum, edited by NEWTON, part I, Attika, edited by the Rev. E. L. Hicks, folio, viii and 160 pp. 3 plates of the Ground-plan, Sections, and Details of Erechtheion, bds. £1. 1874 “ The Collection of Greek Inscriptions in the British Museum, of which the Attic portion is here published, has been acquired by purchase, by donations, and also through the exploration of ancient sites conducted by the Government, by the Trustees, or by private enterprise. “In the present work the same geographical arrangement has been followed which was adopted by Böckh in his great work, the Corpus Inscriptionum Græcarum, published in 1828 by the Academy of Berlin, and also in the new Corpus, now being published by the same Academy. According to this arrangement Attika stands first in the order of Greek States. “ All the uncial texts have been carefully collated with the original marbles by Mr. Hicks in the first instance and by me afterwards.".-( T. NEWTON, MISCELLANEOUS BOOKS, British Museum Publications continued. Busk's Catalogue of Marine Polyzoa, part 3, Cyclostomata, 8vo. 38 plates representing above 200 species, cloth, 5s 1875 A CATALOGUE of Birds, by R. BOWDLER SHARPE, F.L.S., F.Z.S., &c., &c., Assistant in the Zoological Department, British Museum. Vol. I. Acciptres, 8vo. xvi and 480 pp. many woodcuts and 14 coloured plates of new or little known species of BIRDS OF PREY, cloth, 198 1874 - the same, Vol. II. Catalogue of the Striges or Nocturnal Birds of Prey in the collection of the British Museum, 8vo. xii and 326 pp, with 14 coloured plates of Ouls, cloth, 168 1875 The importance of Mr. Sharpe's previous contributions to Science, such as the "Monograph of the Alcedinidae,' and the Birds of Europe,' fully justify the interest which is felt in the above volame. Ornithological Science will largely gain by it. The 'Catalogue of Birds' will be a companion work to Dr. Günther's celebrated Catalogue of Fishes,' which was also published by the authorities of the British Museum. As in that work, every species will be described in full, and since not only the Birds in the Museum itself will be included, but every known species of every genus, each volume will be a series of monographic revisions of the group or family of which it treats. In addition to this, diognostic tables and keys will be supplied for each genus, and the genera and families will also be fully characterized, woodcuts being added whenever the characters require elucidation. FACSIMILES OF ANCIENT CHARTERS in the British Museum, folio, 23 large photographic facsimiles, with the modern printed form, cloth, £1. ls 1873 The special object of the present publication of Ancient English Charters in facsimile is to preserve as it were the documents themselves, by reproducing them in exact imitation and in a permanent form. They cannot be looked upon without emotion, as monuments of a remote age; and, being dated both as to place and time, they are invaluable for the study of palæography, especially as a standard of comparison for English writings, of which it is most important for the study of the language to fix the true age. The Trustees resolved to have facsimiles made of the series which were the oldest and of worst condition. The process practised by Messrs. Spencer, Sawyer, and Bird, was selected, as giving the photographic copy, untouched by hand, in actual printing. The results show how excellently it is adapted for the purpose; and the prints obtained by it may be accepted as giving all the niceties of the writing with perfect accuracy."-Preface. CATALOGOE of the GREEK COINS: ITALY, 8vo. many hundred woodcuts, cloth, £1. 58 1873 “ This volume contains a Catalogue of the Coins of Ancient Italy in the British Museum, arranged according to the system of Eckhel. “The metal of each coin is stated, and its size in inches and tenths. The weight is given in English grains of all gold and silver coins and of all copper coins of known denominations. Tables for converting grains into French grammes and inches into millemètres, as well as into the measure of Mionnet's scale, are placed at the end of the volume."'-R. S. Poole.

The number hitherto inedited is singularly large, amounting in the gold and silver to about one in fonr. The copper coins, having often been indifferently described by former writers, are not distinguished as edited or inedited.”—Introduction.. 1826 British Museum Publications—continued.
