TRAVELS IN ALGEIRA AND TUNIS IN 1845.—" We have
here two most interesting and entertaining volumes upon
Northern Africa, under the rule, or misrule, of the French.
The gallant author, Captain Kennedy, who, in conjunction
with Viscount Fading, has recently travelled through Al-
geria and Tunis, gives a most graphic and picturesque ac-
count of his adventures, including those among the wild
Arabs and Bedouins of the Desert. Captain Kennedy and
Lord Fending appears to have visited every place of note.
Tunis ; Srax, the rose garden of the Desert ; Kairouan, one
of the most sacred cities of the Mahometans, and to which
scarcely any Europeans had previously been allowed to
penetrate; the site of ancient Carthage; the magnificent
amphitheatre of El Jem ; as well as many other localities of
almost equal interest. At the present time, when the recent
unhappy events in Africa have attracted so much attention,
we feel especial pleasure in recommending this entertaining
work, as one which throws much light on the customs and
condition of a brave but unfortunate people, and affords much
valuable information as to all that is remarkable in the
country they inhabit."—Floods Magazine.

monu-
ment, that all remits, high and low, rich and poor, might have an
opportunity of contributing to it. No spot in Scotland could be
fixed on more appropriate or more magnificent for a monument to
Wallace than the Abbey Craig—it would be an honour to Scotland,
and an ornament to the district rendered classic to the heroic deeds
of the Wallace and the Bruce. It may be mentioned that the gen-
