The enediency of a translation of the Systetua Nauru has long
been acknowledged, and the want of it often lamented—the prin-
cipal view of the present Editor has been to deliver it in as intel-
ligible, correct, and useful a form as the nature of such a laborious
undertaking would admit. Tht; Linn Pan terms are rendered as
nearly as possible to the idiom of the English Language, and a ge-
neral explanatory dictionary of such as are peculiarly appropriate
to the science, affixed to the last volume, which also contains a
Biographical account and Formaitvf the Author. The Work Is also
accompanied by such Copperplates as are properly introductory to
the several Departments of Birds, Fishes, Insects, Botany, &c.

ATHENIE OXONIENSES : the History of all
the Writers and Bishops who have had their edue.eion in
the University of Oxford front the year 1500. First written by
ANTHONY A.WOOD, M.A. of Merton College; and now ve:l
considerably augmented in Text and Notes by PHILIP 8L163,
Fellow of St. John's College, Oaf nd.
In the present republication of this very valuable body of Eng-
' Ilsh biography, every word of the two former editions has been
retaiued with the most exact fidelity, so that the curious reader is
no longer under the troublesome necessity of collating the book
as first published by the Author, with the subsequent edition
given to the world under the care of Bishop Tanner.-11ssides
'the text of the two former editions, the present contains a
vast number of Notes by Bishops Humphreys, Kennet, Tanner,
by Sir Kelpie Sydenbam, Dr. Rawlhum, Mr. Baker Loveday,
Morant, Peck, Wanley, Whalley, and Watts; with several
by the present Editor, and many of great value, which have been
communicated by intelligent collectors of the present day; added
to which, each volume contains some few new Lives of firs ins
whose connection with the University had eseard the indus-
trious inquiries of the Oxford Biographer. The two volumes
already before the public contain the Atheism and Fastl Oxo-
nienses front the sear 1540 to 1640, and the remainder of
the orignal Work will be comprised in two more; it is then
proposed to continue the Lives and Annals to the yea: ISCO,
adopting a plan similar to that pursued by the first Author.
—For this purpose very copious materials are already collected
and It is earnestly requested that such gentlemen as possess any
curious and authentic documents relative to the Oxford writers,
will have the kindness to communicate them to the Editor, who
will spare no exertions on his part to render the Work as per-
feet sad interesting as possible.
