LE FOLLET.

The same elegant engravings of the fashions—
drawn with the utmost nicety and coloured with a
fastidious and even artistic brush—decorate this little
monthly feuilton. The publication is altogether with-
out a competitor.

THE ART-UNION MONTHLY JOURNAL.
For splendour and profusion of illustration the
Art- Uniox still commands applause. The number
for November is not one jot inferior to any of its
predecessors, and the engravings, whether on steel,
copper, or wood, are eminently worthy of commen-
dation. The frontispiece, being a plate copied from
a picture in the possession of S. C. Hall, Esq., F.S.A.,
is exquisite. Ariel's song, " Come unto these yellow
Sands" is the theme; R. Huskisson is the painter ;
T. A. Prior is the engraver; E. Brain is the printer.
They have all performed their offices in its produc-
tion admirably; and Mr. Huskisson, who is, we un-
derstand, a young artist, displays in the composition
very great promise, both in conception and execution.
Mrs. S. C. Hall's charming fairy tale of love, " Mid-
summer Eve," is brought to a conclusion. The
criticisms, essays, and miscellaneous intelligence which
make up the letter-press are, as usual, characterised by
much intelligence.

Mr. Blyth, said the case was one of importance to the
licensed victuallers of Birmingham and the trade gene-
rally, as it involved the legality of a practice frequently
adopted in the town, that of having a measure for selling
fourpenny worth of brandy; It was provided by Act of
Parliament that it was illegal to sell by any measure other
than the aliquot part of a quart, when such aliquot part
was asked for by the purchaser, and the question was,
in the present case, whether a measure purporting to be
an aliquot part of a quart could be used. There was no
pretence on the part of the spirit dealers that the four-
pennyworth brandy measure was an eighth-part measure,
it was merely a matter of convenience between the
vendor and his customer. Mr. James said they had no
means of ascertaining that the public had justice done
to them unless the measures were stamped. Mr. Harding
said it would be for Mr. Way, the inspector, to prove
that they were used as eighth-part measures. The
