CRITICAL AND MISCELLANEOUS ESSAYS :
(A new Edition in the Press.)
" Mr. Carlyle would be pronounced, even by those who
had nowhere seen him but in this accustomed theatre [refer-
ring to his course of lectures on German literature], to be a
man of keen research, of independent and original powers of
thought, of a genius fitted to grapple with difficulties, and to
handle vigorously materials unweildy and intractable. Those
who have the advantage of knowing him elsewhere than in
a lecture-room cannot but feel the most cordial interest in
the success of a man so endeared, by the virtues of his pri-
vate character, to all who know, in such a world as this, the
value of truth, generosity, and honour."—Times.

THE COLONY OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA :
A Manual for Emigrants to that Settlement or its Depen-
dencies : comprising its Discovery, Settlement, Aborigines,
Land-Regulations, Principles of Colonial Emigration ; Sta-
tistical, Financial, and Agricultural Reports ; also Instruc-
tions and Hints to Settlers, Directions for the Anchorages,
&c.; and the latest Map extant. By NATHANIEL OGLE.
With an Appendix, containing Governor's Commission,
Land Regulations, List of the Names of the Proprietors,
their original Grants and number of Acres, Tenures, Condi-
tions, Transfers, &c.

" As site is concerned, the colony of Western Australia
is at present most favourably situated for commerce of any
spot in the southern hemisphere, and the object of Mr.
Ogle's volume is to bring the capabilities of that colony be-
fore the public."—Colonial Gazetteer.
" We know this is a good book, and, what is more and
better, we feel that it is a TRUE book. Every page bears
upon it the impress of truth and sincerity of purpose. We
have read many works upon the same subject, but none with
so much pleasure or so much instruction as we have derived
from that now before us. Mr. Ogle's work is a great and
valuable accession to the store we already possess of colonial
information. To all who have either motive or inclination
to emigrate, we can truly recommend its perusal. The map
of the colony is the best extant, and the views of some of
the settlements are highly picturesque."—Salisbury Herald.
"The most valuable, because the most practically useful por-
tion of this work, is that copious department which is devoted
to an account of the actual condition of the colony of Western
Australia, or, as it is better and more specifically designated,
Sw.an River. This account is compiled and drawn up with so
much care, and from such apparently unquestionable sources
of information, that it may be safely depended upon as a ground
for the adoption of individual views as to the adaptation of
the colony to the wants and circumstances of the various
classes of persons who may be contemplating emigration."—
New Monthly.
" To those who were either present at Mr. Ward's motion
upon the subject of 'emigration' in the last session, or to those
who have read the able debate which that motion occasioned,
the work of Mr. Ogle respecting the colony of Western Aus-
tralia must prove exceedingly interesting. It is a compila-
tion of facts which seem to have been collected with great
care ; and if the authorities upon which Mr. Ogle relies be
trustworthy, no one who reads this book can entertain the
slightest doubt that the Western Australian colony presents
the greatest advantages to the emigrant, whatever maybe
his circumstances."—Morning Chronicle.

THE PALACE 0-F

ARCHITECTURE;

A ROMANCE OF ART AND HISTORY.
BY GEORGE WIGHTWICK,
ARCHITECT.

To be illustrated with a Coloured Map, and upwards of Two
Hundred Plates and Woodcuts.

The object of this work is to bring forward the subject of
Architecture in a more popular manner than has ever yet
been attempted. It is addressed not more to the young
Student than to the general reader of either sex, and aims at
exhibiting in an attractive point of view what has hitherto
been too exclusively connected with conventional science and
mathematics. The picture, the poetry; the sentiment, and
the associations with which the subject teems, are therefore
prominently regarded ; while as much of the science as is
necessary to critical appreciation and a knowledge of the
general principles of design, is involved in its treatment.
