THE BOOK GEMS FOR 1837.—The forthcoming
volume of The Book of Gems is, we understand, paticularly
rich in its beautiful illustrations. It will contain upwards ofso
splendid engravings, from original pictures by the first ar-
tists. It has been universally acknowledged that the idea
of this admirable work is as felicitous as its execution. Had
it been proposed to have engaged one hundred of the most
eminent painters and engravers to have illustrated the most
celebrated poets who have adorned our language, the idea
would, in the abstract, have appeared impracticable ; yet
this has been accomplished, and not only do we find in this
splendid work the most beautiful passages of our poets, but
the most interesting features of their history, condensed in
such a manner as to form a complete library of enjoyment
and reference.

EXTRAORDINARY BIRTHS.—This morning, at
eleven o'clock, a most extraordinary case of fecundity oc-
curred, by the wife of a mechanic named Wallis, residing
in Ryder's-court, Fitzroy-square, giving birth to four
children, three boys and one girl. It is most remarkable
that Wallis is 65 years of age, and his wife 50, and ten
years have now elapsed since she had given birth to any
children, and the last, singular to say, were twins. The
children, with the mother, are likely to do well. Num-
bers of people have been to their house this morning,
and some humane inhabitants in the neighbourhood have
forwarded their assistance to make their situations more
comfortable.
