LITERATURE.—The present season has been cba"
racterised by much greater activity among the publishers, than
we remember for a very long period. One eminent publisher
has issued upwards of thirty new works, many of which have
already attained extensive popularity. Mr. Bentley, to whorlSp
k
we allude, has given us, among many other interesting w°l-
the " Posthumous Memoirs of Sir William Wraxall," one
the most entertaining books ever published, abounding in anec-
dotes of the most distinguished statesmen, wits, and bcauFe_
of the reign of George 111., of the Regency, and of the toe!
of George IV. The new work on Switzerland, by cooPe;
(the celebrated author of " The Pilot," " The Spy," i'gr'C'ir;
exhibits this great writer's talent in a new aspect--earne'Y'„ip
the description of the magnificent scenery of that recun,
region, where his imagination found ample scope for disP'33;
A. De Lamartine's " Pilgrimage to the Holy Land," S'?'',.he
full of the most eloquent illustrations of the Bible and :be
New Testament ; while Mr. Quin's " Steam Vovagsedown
Danube,,, includes vivid and faithful pictures of*that roman,,„
region. Mrs. Trollope's " Paris and the Parisians, in 1835 'of
and Mr. H. Lytton Bulwer's " France," contain a resssl.o,
amusing anecdotes relative to our continental neighilli,l.-
" James's Naval History" is too well known, as a work 01
rivalled 'accuracy and national importance, to need our eulogst
It is now re-published, in a form which will render it acclain
ble to all, enriched with new anecdotes and notes by CV:hor
Chamier, R.N. " Spain Revisited," by the amusing itu'bic
of a " Year in Spain," is characterised by lively and gr"atife
sketches, worthy of Le Sage himself. The valuable
of the Earl of Shaftesburyl" by Dr. Kippis, is now first
lished ; the history of its suppression till the present
would form a prominent feature in the curiosities of
Sir Thomas Picton's " Life," is in itself a kind of
romance; no chieftain's career was more stirring and evenc.nti-
than that of Picton. These books deserve the extensive PAP
larity they have already attained.
