Speaking of this Library while yet in progress, the Edinburgh Review remarks: It is not wonderful that the circulation should be extensive; it is said to be 20,000 monthly. We own that our expectations are unbounded of the good to be done by this series of works."

This work contains the original of the story of INKLE AND YARICO; also a most laughable account of the Propagation of the Guaver Tree."

The quaint, forced. and unnatural style which he introduced by his Anatomie of Wit, had a fashion as rapid as momentary-all the court ladies were his scholars, and to parler Euphuisme was as necessary a qualification to a courtly gallant, as those of understanding how to use his rapier, or to dance a measure."-SIR WALTER Scott (Monastery).

"Ah, that I had with me my Anatomie of Wit-that all-to be-unparal lelled volume-that quintessence of human wit-that treasury of quaint in vention that exquisitely-pleasant to read and inevitably-necessary-to-beremembered manual of all that is worthy to be known-which indoctrines the rude in civility, the dull in intellectuality, the heavy in jocosity, the blunt in gentility, the vulgar in nobility, and all of them in that unutterable perfection of human eloquence, which no other eloquence is sufficient to praise, that art which, when we call it by its own name of Euphuism, we bestow on it its richest panegyric."-Monastery.

"Among the many travellers who have contributed to our knowledge of the interesting regions dignified by events recorded in Holy Writ, a prominent place must be assigned to Lord Lindsay. His abilities and accomplishments are of a high order; a spirit of inquiry and a glowing enthusiasm have been aided by various knowledge, and refined by a sincere piety. He exhibits a considerable store both of ancient and modern learning; but his draughts of Helicon have been abundantly tempered by—

'Siloa's brook, that flow'd

Fast by the Oracle of God.'

"Having gone out in the perseverance and devotion of a pilgrim, he has felt and recorded what he saw with the wisdom of a philosopher and the faith of an enlightened Christian."-Quarterly Review.
