IHOCIIELAGA ; OR, ENGLAND IN TUE NEW WORM)
EDITED BY ELIOT WARBURTON, ESQ.—A second edi:
Lion of this attractive book has already been called for
by the public. The Examiner justly observes, " This is
not the work of a common writer. The author has a
vein of deep thought, as well as a quirk susceptibility to
external characteristic forms. his book is full of plea-
sant reading, and suggestive, at the same time, of im-
portant practical reflections. His object is to convey to
Vnglish readers more correct notions and a more 'We-
-1 quAte estimate, than have hitherto prevailed, of the im-
portance cf Canada to England as an integral part of the
empire. But, in truth, the most striking parts of the
work—those which arrest the attention most, and cling
longest to the memory—relate to the United States.
What he has attempted to do is a bold and useful un-
dertaking ; to contrast the social condition -that nuly
be attained under the modified and mixed constitutio us
of England with that which can be obtained under the
dernocratical institutions of the United States. The mere
conception of such a work indicates power and origi-
nality, and what has been produced is full of valuable
matter."

We have to announce the serious indisposition of
the Earl of Portsmouth. His recovery is exceedingly
doubtful. The Noble Earl, it is well known, has long
been subject to aberration of mind, His Lordship is at
present at his country residence, Hurstbourno Priory,
Hants.
