G. Stephens, will, with the sanction of the Trustees of the Museum, be published very shortly. The latter sheets of the introduction, comprising Mr. Stephens's analyses and essays, are now in the press. The volume describes the last designs of Hogarth; the satires of his antagonists, Paul Sandby and others; the sketches of the Marquis Townshend; the earlier works of Bunbury Matthew Darly's prints; and in dealing with about 1200 works, covers the period of Junius,' the North Briton, and the Macaronies,' i. e., 1760 1770.”—The Athenæum, April 1, 1882. · Brown (J. Henry) the Rambler's Calendar, 12mo. pp. 111, vellum, uncut copy, 28 6d Nottingham, 1882 A poem in stately blank verse, divided into months, and somewhat akin in character to Thomson's Seasons, although the spirit is that of our own day. A few minor pieces in rhyme are added at the end. Bullen's Collection of Rare Old English Plays, 4 vols. square 4to. hf. vellum, £4. 4s Privately printed, 1882-3 Vols. 1-2 are out, Vols. 3-4 are nearly ready; very few copies remain for sale. "I have to express the strongest feeling of gratitude to Mr. Bullen for this excellent series of old plays-the most valuable that have been issued for a quarter of a century. The play of 'Bernavelt' alone is worth a small library of ordinary reprints; it is one of Fletcher and Massinger's masterpieces. Nor is it a small thing to have recovered plays by Glapthorne and Shirley, though neither of these has the intrinsic worth of the Barnavelt play."-F. G. Fleay, "The Athenæum," March 3, 1883.

Parochial and FAMILY HISTORY OF THE DEANERY OF TRIGG MINOR, in the County of Cornwall, 14 parts forming 3 vols. 4to. with numerous maps, plates, and woodcuts of Mansions, Monuments, Inscriptions, Archæological Relics, etc. and many folding tables of Pedigrees. For a short time only, a copy. may be had in parts below the original subscription price of £5. 14s for £4. 18s or, in 3 vols. cloth, £5. 5s The future selling price will be £8. 8s. 1868-79 Alike as a work of Family and Topographical History, and a learned contribution to English Archæology, the work is of high importance. Only a small number of copies was printed, of which there is now left but a fractional remainder. It will undoubtedly before long rise in value; not only from exhaustion by local purchasers but also by dispersion amongst the many booklovers throughout the kingdom who take an interest in Cornwall. The Indexes of Names are very full and satisfactory. The book begins with the Primeval and early Christian Monuments of the County, and then proceeds in monographs of Parishes as follows:-Blisland, Bodmin, St. Breward, Egloshayle, St. Endellion, Forrabury and Minster, Helland, St. Tudy, Tintagel and Trevalga, St. Teath and Temple, St. Minver, St. Mabyn and Michaelstowe, Lanteglos juxta Camelford and Advent, and Lesnewith, Lanowe alias St. Kew. LIST of FAMILIES, whose Pedigrees are given in Trigg Minor. The Arms of the greater part of these Families are to be found on the same page as the Pedigrees.
