LITERATURE.

STABLE ECHNOMY.
Blackwood, Edinburgh ; Cadell, London. 1838.

All owners of horses will be obliged to Mr. Stewart for
giving to the public this treatise on the management of
horses, in relation to stabling, grooming, feeding, watering,
and working. We believe it to be the best arranged book
on the subject that has yet been publi-hed. The informs-
tion conveyed is valuable ; the advice given sound and sa-
lutary ; and the classification of the several subjects so ac-
curate and well managed, as to enable the reader to find,
without trouble or difficulty, any information he may seek.
This is a desideratum for which we may look in vain in the
more costly and pretending volumes of White, the great, and
not undeservedly respectable, authority in ail such mattcrs.
Stewart's little work, we repeat, is an excellent digest, and
conveys more knowledge on the several 'subjects of which it
treats than is generally to be found after long and laborious
search in the verbose and ill-arranged volumes of almost all
his predecessors, The woodcuts, too, with which the book
abounds, serve a practical purpose of much general utility.
