gin ; the MRS roads also being so arranged, that the mute, from

By GEORGE CARRINGTON GRAY.
London : Printed for Sherwood, Jones, and Co. Paternoster row.
••• This Road Book, which is quite novel in its plan and
execution, differs from all others in the folloalog important par-
ticulars:—

I. It is compressed within the limier of a pocket volume; and is
so constructed as to be easily referable in every possible respect, the
General Index being so arranged, that reference may at once be had
to any required line of route, at whatever considerable town or wa-
tering-place the Traveller may happen to be.
2. The different lines of route are so arranged as to show the va-
riations, not only to the ultimate point of distance, but to all the
intermediate points on the line ; this being effected by meaneof a
compact and purposely adapted type, whereby every page contains
as much in quantity as would otherwise be diffused through a plu-
rality of pages.
ti. The whole is so disposed as to obviate much of the intricacy
which, from the very nature of the subject, appears almost inherent
in works of ttlis description ; the cross-rattle es yell pp =40%0
node being heti arranged on an entirely new ohm, 00 the
to and fro distinguished by novel species of ligures. •
