" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very
useful pamphlet has been published by Dr. Culverwell, the
proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the neighbourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the practical regulations which the writer
endeavours to enforce. —Fterald and Standard, Nov. 12, 1861.
" The Poet-office Turkish Bath 4,10, St. Martin's-le-Grand.
Culverwell has already established the reputation of
en ab'e physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
Philauthr4ist, in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, adinstitution that more nearly than any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Tutkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
one of the best set of 'lJaths, at 10. St. Martin's-k-Grand,
Which the country can produce; perfect in all Its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
Which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
s been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the
Yiaitor. . We may justly say that if a man ever feels
himself regenerated and new made, it is on:comingiout:of

DR EAM LAND. With other Poems,

„__ .

"Mr. Kent has undeniable merits—warm and high-toned
feeling, a pleasant combination of grace and humour, and no
small power to individualise. ' Pope at Twickenham' is a
cabinet picture. Marianne' will commend itself to all
mothers by its gush. of parental tenderness, and its acquaint-
ance with baby wiles and mysteries. ' Pructidoe shows what
Dutch fidelity of word painting. the author can master when
he tries. His fruit is as vivid and well characterised as if
Lance had painted it."—Atheneum.

"The charm of- Mr. Kent's poetry, as it is the first condi-
tion of success to all poets, Is that he is in sympathy with his
subject and not only with himself ; that he is truly poet and
not eg,otist. Bnt it is by no means his only merit. lie is a mas-
ter of versification. lhe flow o' his verse is smooth and me-
lodious, and enriched with a copious and ornate vocabulary.
`Shelley at Marlow 'is a painting exquisitely delicate. The
vision of Shelley with which Mr, Kent presents us is almost
perfect. 'DREAMLAND' is a work conceived in a noble
spirit, and executed With scholarly taste, frequently with
flashes of true poetic inspiration. the Dying Bridegroom'
is distinguished by a genuine pathos, which leads us to be-
lieve that Mr. Kent would succeed eminently in some story
of the affections. "—The London Review.

"Mr. Kent's poems come before the world with the advan.•
tage, not only of an author's name, but of a name already
agreeably and musically known in the metrical literature of
the day. • His 'Aletheia' was very favourably received by the
public, and has no doubt been the companion of many
thoughtfUl readers who will gladly welcome another volume
from his pen. A series of portraf's drawn with true poetic
sympathy and veneration, The best of all, we think, is that
of Scott. There is something in the lines that will remind
the reader of the chime of Scott's own Verse."—John Bull.
"Verses, many of them extremely tender and harmonious,
and all indicating a mind carefully cultured and imbued with
elegant tastes."—Daily News.

"Poems of very considerable excellence, Fructidor 'is a
very close and vigorous word-painting of an orchard. Mr.
Kent's volume is healthy and vigorous in sentiment, correct
in composition, and contains many happy touches of true
fancy, very gracefully expressed."—The Critic.
"The pictures Mr. Kent makes are carefully drawn and
effectively coloured. His work is on the whole in good taste.
It possesses the undeniable, yet, in these days, rare merit of
intelligibility, and is, moreover, very readable."—The Art-
World.

" We like some of Mr. Kent's minor poems even better than
`Dreamland.' He is a real poet, unquestionably, and often
versifies with extreme felicity. Of his poetic power the
Monody on Lord Strangford ' affords ample proof : while
his capacity to make word-music is shown in The Morris
Dance, s.' "—The Press.
