" I must be permitted to observe that they who suppress such
memorials of modern times do all that in them lies to leave
the history of the 18th century in darkness. In the 16th century
it Was the fashion to preserve original papers ; in the 18th, it is the
fashion to destroy them : hence we know more of the reign of
Elizabeth than we do of the reign of George."—Lord Hailes.

the method so strongly recommended by Captain Basil Hall, and
other eminent writers.

CHURCH REFORM.—THE ORTHODOX
WHITE LIE.
Are there ten men in the Church of England, competent from in-
quiry to decide upon the question, who entertain the slightest doubt
of thing IN (1 John, v. 7) being a forgery ? And yet, there stands
the thing ( 'leaven bless its dear little knaveship !) there—in her
authorised version of the Word of God—stands the thing, as snug
and smug as when, peradventure, hardly a man could have been
found in the Church of England who would not have stood aghast
at the very thought of its being even suspected of imposture by any
wicked wight doomed, of course, for his sin against the Holy Ghost,.
to " perish everlastingly." But—THE Church in error Havow-
ing herself in error ! We shudder, verily, from head to foot, and
with our pious and good Immutables, exclaim-0 naughty--
naughty—religious Truth !

THE RHINE: LEGENDS, IRADITIONS,
HISTORY. FROM COLOGNE TO MAINZ.
By JOSEPH SNOWE, Esq.
The want of a work which should include all the " legends,
traditions, and history" of that most romantic and remarkable por-
tion of the Rhine lying between Cologne and Mainz has been long
felt by the European public. It is quite true that much has been
written on these subjects, in various languages ; and that a. great
deal has been done towards elucidating them in several forms. In
so far the subject is not a new one. But• still it is not less true,
that the wild and wondrous legends which appertain to each par,
titular castle on that immortal river—the extraordinary traditions
which attach themselves to almost every spot on its shores—the
spirit-stirring histories connected with its cities and towns and
hamlets, through the long period when it was not alone th sole
highway of central Europe, but the centre of European civilisation
itself, have never been gathered together as yet, nor given zn any
thing like an entire form to' the world. Ihe present atteimpt is
made to supply, as far as possible, that desideratum in general
literature.

To those who have traversed the shores of that stream, and to
those who intend to travel thither, it is believed than this book
that there can be no more acceptable offering. It is forurty hoped
that it will again awaken in the minds of the one the dormant
beauties of the glorious scenes over which they have heretofore
wandered, and fix them more firmly in their mer.tory by connecting
them -with the facts of history, or the poetry of romance ; while to
the others it is trusted that it will serve as a stimulant to quicken
their apprehension of coming pleasure, by exciting their reason,
their imagination, and their fancy. Thus recollection of the past,
and anticipation of the future, will, it is presumed, be blended by-
it into one harmonious whole.
The pains bestowed on this production, and the time employed
in its completion, entitle the Author to hope for public favour.
-Nolling has been left undone to secure it in a legitimate manner.
The whole will be complete in a series of twenty-four Monthly
Parts., forming two handsome octavo volumes. Each Part will
contain two sheets of Letter-press, with beautiful Wood-engra-
vings from Drawings by Mr. Butler, illustrative of the Legends or
thesLocalities. Each successive Part will also contain a double
plate, forming a section of a most superior picturesque Panorama
of the shores of the Rhine between the two Cities which form the
termini.

Part I will be published on the Ist May, Price One Shilling.
