CLARKE, 1:1, PATERNOSTER ROW And all Booksellers and ewsmen. NOW READY, CHARLES K ENT'S POEMS. THE FIRST COLLECTIVE EDITION. Handsomely bound in cloth, bevelled boards, Crown Octavo, price Seven Shillings and Sixpence. "As a poet their author must live. He has the sweetness of Wordsworth, the vigour of Southey, and the elegant versatility of Coleridge. It is, however, as a poet of the affections that Mr. Kent chiefly excels. The longer and more ambitious poems exhibit extraordinary genius."—The New Monthly Magazine. "As many of these compositions are already old acquaintances, we need only glance at the picturesque and appreciative de lineations of poets in their haunts, called 'Dreamland ;' at the rich and finished transcript from nature, entitled Fructidor ;' at the chivalrous tone of the writer's mind and its sympathy with modern ideas, as evidenced in such poems as Lamartine in February ; at his simple and genuine pathos, of which ' Amelia' is a type ; and at his sympathy with the animated pleasures of rural life, in evidence of which we may cite ' The Morris Dancers.' • Aletheia ' is the longest, and, on the whole, the noblest poem in the collection. It will be recurred to not only for its beauty of description, but for its pure and elevated philosophy. The reader will note not only the atmosphere in which the chief. figure moves, but also the full and appropriate details which enrich the picture. The hih and varied merits of the book ought to insure its popularity."--Athenaeum. " Mr. Charles Kent, the Editor of ' The Sun,' ranks very high as a poet."—Publishers' Circular. "The versatility of style, and the fresh and vigorous writing in these poems, lend a charm which we seldom find in the poetry of the day."—Examiner. "Poems marked by grace, feeling, and strong love of nature, and a cultivated and genial spirit."—Daily News. " The poems which appear for the first time in this volume are not unworthy of the author's earlier productions."—Daily Telegraph. - - - "Mr. Kent - may not aspire to be classed among the Dil Majores ' of the poetic court, but assuredly he will take a very respectable position among the lesser divinities."—Standard. "The, e is much that is very beautiful in the poems before us—a collection of the thoughts, the emotions, the feelings of a whole lifetime."—Tablet. The "Rock" expresses its "cordial admiration for the genius and the taste of Mr. Kent as a poet of very considerable powers and culture," adding, "The real vigour of Mr. Kent's poetical spirit manifests itself in dealing with the feelings. He is equally at home in pathos and in terror, and in strains that go right to the heart and stir the emotions to the lowest depths." " Mr. Charles Kent has long been known to wield a facile pen in writing poems of the class just indicated, and it is but fair to add that he takes high rank among the minor poets."--- Echo. The "Westminster Review." while regretting it " 'cannot join in the chorus of praise, nor share in the enthusiasm which has been raised over Mr. Kent's poems," adds that it " cannot, how ever, part with the book without expressing a word of praise for its generous tone and sympathies." "Hois a true poet, and his works will live."—New.4 of the World. "We have the pleasant task of welcoming, as a real addition to the ranks of our true poets, Mr. Kent. He is.something more than a mere versifier; he is a real poet, and has proved it. 'Milton at Cripplegate '—an exquisite picture of the blind old poet discoursing sweet sounds upon the organ in solitary but resigned sadness—is a poem that ought to live. Such of our readers as care for the roll of Milton's own blank verse, for thoroughly poetic fahcies, for delicate imagery, and fora high and pure tone of moral feeling, we must leave to ponder over this short poem for themselves."—London Figaro. " That very graceful poem which appeared in the Times' as a welcome to Longfellow, and which, from the initials, was attributed to the author of Hypatia, was written by Mr. Charles Kent, the Editor of The Sun,' and was worthy of a priest of Phoebus Apollo."—Punch. " We find in the volume a luxuriant imagery, the fruit of a life-long study of nature. As for flowers ! —Mr. Kent is as well up in them as Shakspere himself. Lastly, it recommends itself to us by its historical sympathies and views, and by the charm ing pictures of domestic life, with its affections and blessings, which it frequently affords us." —The Month.

By Edward Newman. F.L.S., F.Z.S. Giving a full description of the perfect insect from nature; also a description of the Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Food Plant, Time of Appearance, and Localities where found. Bach moth is drawn from nature by George Willis, and engraved in his best style by John Kerchner. The figures zre life-size of every species ; and if varieties require it, three, four, five, and even six figures are given The work is complete in thirty-one monthly numbers, at 6d. each. The work is also issued in quarterly parts, in covers, at Is. Cd. each part. Part X. new ready, price 2s, Back numbers reprinted, and may be had. "We congratulate British entomologists on the completion and publication of this magnificent work."—Field. " Both to the beginner and the proficient in that study this work will be invaluable. '—Daily Telegraph. " It is illustrated with life-size figures from nature of each species, and of the more striking varieties, and it possesses great advantages over all similar works, inasmuch as the caterpillar of each moth. with his habits and season, is described. This, to collectors, will be an immense boon, and by its means they will be enabled to obtain many rare specimens."—Standard. "The completion of Mr. Newman work on the British Moths is a benefit to entomologists of all classes. It is at once a text-book by a high authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or drawing-room table. It embodies the results of many years' earnest and intelligent work by one whose reputation as an ento mologist deservedly stands high. . . . We notice also with satisfaction that Mr. Newman's descriptions, whilst thoroughly scientific and minute, are given in plain and unaffected English. With the help of these and the very excellent woodcuts, even a very young collector may with ease identify any moth be may cap ture. The figures are so well drawn that there is no need of colour to render them life-like. . . . We unhesitatingly commend this volume to our readers. We regard it as . very useful addition to our library." Land and Water, Oct. 9. London—W. Twitanra. 337. Strand. W.O. Best Advertising Paper in the Western Counties. THE WESTERN MORNING NEWS.
