1. pular Digest of the Laws of England ; with a Dic-
tionary of Law Terms, Maxims, Acts of Parliament, and
Judicial Antiquities ; .correct Table of Taxes and Duties,
Post Office Regulations, Rates of Porterage, Turnpike
Laws, Corn Laws, Prison Regulations, &c. &c.
" This is a very useful publication ; and a second edi-
tion in so short a space shows the Public have found it
out. The only book pretending to a popular view of the
subject is Blackstone's ; and the numerous changes that
have been brought about within the last fifty years have
rendered it almost useless ; and, in many instances, worse
—misleading. It is a vigorous and unincumbered state-
ment of the subject—a competent digest, compressed to
a tangible size, without confusion or obscurity. There
is no nonsense in the book—none of the idle reasons for
things of which Blackstone is full. The second edition
has considerable improvements."—Monthly Magazine, May
1, 1827.

" Of all the Works which have issued f om the Medical
Press, of our Asiatic dominions, this is unquestionably the
most important to the Indian Practitioner; whether we
regard the research of the Author, or the novelty of the
materials on which be has expended such prodigious labour.
Before the publication of Dr. Ainslie's Materia Medica of
llindoostan, in 1813, the knowledge of the Hindoos on
this subject vas more closely locked up from European
eyes, than the most mystical symbols of their mysterious
religion. The importance of these volumes to our coun-
trymen of the East, -professional, mercantile, or military,
will be readily appreciated ; and there are few Englishmen,
we think, in those regions, to whom the labours of this in-
defatigable writer can be indifferent."—Lendon Medico-
Chirurgical Review, April 1827.

HAMEL, the OBEAH MAN. A Novel.
" The descriptions of scenery are alive and strik-
ing; the portraits of character are true and vigorous; the
sketches of manners lively and instructive. Many of the
situations are well conceived, and produce a deep interest
in the reader, while the effect of the whole is heightened by
the novelty of the subject. The author is on entirely new
giound, and—let us add—ground which abounds in ob-
jects of great and powerful interest."—Atlas.
" This is a work of considerable power. The con-
ceptions are vigorous ; the incidents striking ; the manners
new."—Scotsman.
" No writer has described so well as the author of
Hamel, the manners and the climate of the country of the
Antilles."—London Magazine.
" This is an entertaining, we may say instructive, novel.
The scene is new, and the manners described are new. We
are glad that the author, who last year published an
amusing Tour in Jamaica, has selected that island for his
scene. " He is a man Of observation and talent, and has
moreover a turn for humour. The whole of the work
is written with spirit."—Westminster Review.
