ample, and bon-mot, it may meet the eyes of many who
would turn from a grave treatise."—Westminster Review.
The EXAMINER, for the Years 1809 to 1826, both
inclusive, in IS vols. 4ta. price a 9s. in boards.
This work consists of an interesting Miscellany, forming
at once a very copious ANNUAL REGISTER, and a fund
of amusing details of all kinds. It contains a regular
series of Political Essays, Theatrical Criticism, Reviews of
Books, &c. in addition to the ordinary contents of a News-
paper ; and its size (being the only quarto newspaper in
London) peculiarly adapts it for the library.
PHILOSOPHICAL WORKS.
AN HISTORICAL and CRITICAL DICTIONARY,
selected and abridged from the great Work of BAYLE.
With an original Life of the Author. 11;4 vols. small Bvo.
price 325.- in boards.
" Four more instructive and amusing volumes have not
come from the press for many years, than this Abridgement
of Bayle. We recommend it to every inquiring and think-
ing person who cannot obtain or cannot peruse the bulky
folios of the original. Iu it he will have materials for
thought, matter for argument, and wisdom for guidance,
for years and years."—Atlas.
" The present Abridgment has been executed with very
great judgment and ability, and deserves to be universally
read, since it contains the finest articles written by one of
the most acute critics and profound thinkers of modern
times."—London Weekly Review.
A PHILOSOPHICAL DICTIONARY. Translated
from the French of VOLTAIRE. In 6 vols. Bvo. with
a het-I of Voltaire, and a Vignette after Stothard, price
50s. boards.
" It is remarkable, that the enly'work of Voltaire, which
has not heretofin•e found an English Translator, is the Phi-
losophical Dictionary. 'lt seems superfluous to descant
upon a book whose merits haVe been so long decided.—
There is, probably, no work of equal size in any language
which has been so frequently reprinted in so short a space
of time. Its wit, its variety, the simplicity of its style,
and its extensive and curious research, present a combina-
tion of attractions which cannot fail to procure a lasting
popularity. The Translation is executed with accuracy and
spieit."—Westminster Review.

NAL of a TRAVELLER on the CONTINENT. By
THOMAS JEFFERSON HOGG, Esq., of the Middle
Temple, Barister-at-LaW. In 2 vols. crown Svo. price
18s. hoards.
" This is a most instructive book of travels, and as
amusing as a jest brok. If grave sense, grave humour,
sharp wit, and classical learning, make an agreeable com-
pOund—liere it is. As a mere guide in matters of taste,
it is preferable, in our opinion, to any one of the multi-
tude of books written by travellers who have pursued the
same route : and for force and originality of remark it far
sus asses Forsyth. In popularity, we expect it to exceed
Matiliews's Diary of an Invalid,' as much as it dOes in
inerit."—Atlas.
"Mr. Hogg has talents which would make a journey
from London to York, or from Hyde Park Corner to White-
chapel, or from any place to any other where human beings
could be seen in the intermediate space, new and amusing.
Italy needed such a traveller.",.—London Magazine.

"In all former Hamiltonian Books one important thin..
was wanting to give the literal translation its full advan-
tage : the words of the original are translated with the
and closeness, word for word, the transla-
tiongible; in order therefore to make the sense
apparent, sacrifices have been made, which have essentially
destroyed the virtue of the system.. In these new works
tide has been remedied by adding gi a third and free transla-

" These extremely well executed. With a
series of such we have no hesitation in saying that a per-
son, by reading two hours a day regularly, may attain a
competent knowledge of any European language in s:x
months, without encountering the irksome toil which ren-
ders the study of a foreign language in the usual way so re-
pulsive. By the same process, we think as much Latin
might be taught to a boy in two years as is now taught in
five."—Scotsman.
