"The plan of the publication appt ar.; t- be a very judicious
ore. The book is suitable both for an antiquary and general
reader, and will convey much intelligence in an agreeable
manner. The illustrations and• views of houses, churches,
tombs, monuments, &c., are very gond ; they possess the merit
of being representations of the places and things they are in-
tended to convey a notion of, and are not mere compositions
ith the names of objects written under them at random.
The work is beautifully got np, ant printed in a good type.
Altogether, this is a publication don which everybody will
derive some new knowledge ; it is full of anecdote, and is'
written with taste and aecuracy."—Tithes, May 9, 1642.

THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS.
On SATURDA y, the 14th of May, will be published,
No. 1, of a New Weekly Newspaper, entitled the ILLUSTRA-
TED' LONDON NEWS, price 6d. stamped, containing 30
engravings every week, from designs by eminent Artists, being
pictorial representations ( f the most. interesting events of the
day, in addition to 48 columns of news. The object of this
puldication is not merely to register the current events of in-
terest at home, to give lengthened details of occurrences abroad,
but to heighten the cne and make ckar the other by the in-
troduction of pictorial representations of the scenes desCribed.
Calling in the aid of pencil to depict that which can only be
but partially accomplished by the pen, we are but following the
text of a learned writer, who has said that " we can convey to
the mind by means of a picture anise circumstances of relative
sit oat ion, and peculiar interest, that he written description could
ever achieve, but which the pencil must at all times materially
enhance," The war in Affghanistan, the sad defeats and suf-
ferings of the British Army, and we !rape its also glorious tri-
umphs, will open a wide field, for pictorial representation, and-
our artists will not fail in their task. Foreign- circamstances,_
however, are but a slight feature in our gallery—the realities of
Lordon life, the physiognomy of its police courts, its theatres,.
exhibitions, public amusements, its out-door society, its daily in.
creasing public buildings, its works of art—all that has the chains
of novelty will be brought before the reader in a pictured fora.
and will give to the country resident that exact impression of.
London progress which no other Journal, by description alone
can convey. Correspondences have been opened in each of
our provincial towns to insure a quick transit of illustrations
of all matters of interest. Racing and sporting scenes, rowing
reviews, public festivals, cattle
sTi sailinge-s.an m
d othaeteches' militarysgricujtalrasseniblies, will be reported with
the pencil as well as by the pen ; is bile, for the particular en-
tertainment of our fair countrywomen, engravings of the
fashions, gardening, fancy needlework, sketches of public balls
and concerts, will be from time to time provided. A vigorous
tone will be adopted in politics, freed at the same time from all
party views. .Arrangements are made for giving with more
than usual effect the fullest. and latest reports of the Parlia-
mentary debates, public meetings, police intelligence, theatrical
information, &c. ... Critical reviews is ill be given of all British
and Foreign literary publications of sterling interest. The
latest accounts of markets, &c., with the tidiest commercial
inlormation, and all the usual contents. Toe illustrations 'are
entirely confided to Messrs. Vizetelly and Co., and will be en-
graved under their superintendence, to insure the public against
anything of an inferior character being introduced into the
columns of this newspaper.
