DISCOVERS OF A NEW WORK BY THE AUTHOR
OF " DON QUIXOTE."—" It would be unpardonable not
to make special_ mention of the fact, that this month
Bentley's Miscellany contains a translation, with excel-
lent prefatory and explanatory notes, of" El Buscapii,"
the long lost wook of Cervantes, recently discovered in
manuscript at Cadiz. Its discovery is a real event in
the literary history of Europe."—Morning Chronicle.
GAME PRESERVING..—There is no mistake respect-
ing game being a serious injury to produce, because it is
now admitted by Parliament. The 'preamble of the new
Game Law, passed on the 22d ult., 'says " And
whereas it has been found that much damage has
been and is continually done by hares to the pro-
duce of inclosed lands, and that great losses have
thereby accrued and do accrue to the occupiers of
such lands." At last this has become a legalised "great
fact," and the day cannot be far distant when another
step in the right direction must be made in regard to the
game preserving system, as well as the game laws. No
reasonable person can doubt it.—From a Correspondent.
