DR. GRANVILLE'S "SPAS OF GERMANY."---
As the usual season for visiting the Continent has now
arrived, tourists, whether for recreation or health, are
doubtless busily employed in selecting that indispensable
compagnon de voyage, a good " Guide Book" to the spot
towards which they bend their steps. Fashion, no less
than taste, and the necessity often induced by the exigency
of combining the pursuit of health with that of pleasure,
points to Germany as the most distinguished resort of
those crowds of tourists who either fancy themselves
obliged to escape from the ennui of an English summer,
or desire to test the healing efficacy of the wonder-working
waters of the Continent. To all such how opportune must
be the appearance of the new and cheaper edition of Dr.
Granville's celebrated " Guide to the Spas of Germany,"
now comprised in one portable volume, yet containing all
the illustrations, &c., of the former edition, and published
at about one-half the original price 1 As a Contemporary
justly observes—" Dr. Granville's book is as indispensable
to the traveller as his portmanteau or travelling bag, or
purse to ply his way."

The flomps tire Independent says the Tories of
Hampshire, headed by the Earl of Malmesbury, have it in
contemplation to invite his Grace of Wellington to a public
dinner somewhere in the course of the summer. A prelimi-
nary meetir.g will be held at St. John's Rooms, on Fr:day,
the 13th of next month, when the necessary arrangements
will be resolved on.

ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.—The
last meeting for the session was held on Monday evening,
when several valuable communications were read. The
tables were covered with a large collection of charts and
maps, donations to the Society, and the most interesting
was a map of Hawaii, executed by native artists, under
the direction of the:missionaries. Colonel Cohen commu-
nicated some particulars oldie re-discovery of the Aurora
Mantis, in the South Atlantic. Ocean, %ituated half way
between the Falkland and South Georgian Islands, which
were discovered about eighty years since by a Spanish
ship, but afterwards lost. They have since been ex
punted from the Admiralty maps, but may upon this
authority be restored. Mr. Wilkinson communicated some
interesting particulars on the valley of the Nile, and the
present and past states of the level of the river, exhibiting
for the first time his large map of Egypt. The President
announced that the Council .had obtained an appropriate
house in Pall-
mall, to which they would immediately re.
move, and adjourned the meeting over the recess to
November.
