*** Of the 75 Churches described and Nustrated in this
work, 42 were erected by Sir Christopher. Wren shortly after
the great fire : a connected series of views. of these Um dings,
such as is here for the first lime published, cannot fail to be
interesting both to the admirers. of. that great architect, and
to the promoters of Church Building in the present day. Of
the more important, views both of the exterior and interior
have been (riven ; drawn and engraved by the well-known
artists and engravers, McKenzie and Billings, Le Keux and
Challis. The steel engavings amount in number to fifty-
nine, and those on wood, by S. Williams, to fifty-seven ; so
that the work is decidedly cheaper than of those usually de-
signated " Annuals." Of the descriptive part it may be
sufficient to say, that it has been pronounced creditable to
the Author, by all the most respectable periodicals. The
following highly favourable notices appeared at various times
during the publication of the work in numbers, and the names
of the periodicals attached to the extracts will be a sufficient
warrant, for their impartiality ; but if it could possibly
strengthen this assurance, the proprietor pledges his word
that no one. of them has been solicited, and they may there-
fore be fairly considered as the perfectly unbiassed opinions
of the various editors.
CIVIL
ENGINEERS' AND ARCHITECTS' JOURNAL.--NO.
3.—" This very useful and popular work has arrived at its
eleventh number.... The author is entitled to the warmest
encomiums of the profession, for his efforts in the endeavour
to inculcate into the minds of the public a taste for this im-
portant branch of architecture."
THE ASIATIC JOURNAL.—" Three parts of this elegant,
acceptable, and very cheap work, have appeared, and they
do infinite credit to the artists and the authors. Each num-
ber contains two views of a Church, with historical and an-
tiquarian matter.

LOUDON'S ARCHITECTURAL MAGAZINE.—" The two
numbers before us contain four exquisitely-engraved plates of
St. Paul's Cathedral,—a beautiful wood Engraving of the
Cathedral as it appeared before the fire in 1666, and others
of the monuments to Lord Nelson, the Marquis Cornwallis,
and Bishop Heber. The letter-press appears to be compiled
with taste and judgment, combining historical relation with
critical and professional remarks : and on the wrapper of
each number is given a glossary of technical expressions, for
the use of non-professional readers. The extreme cheapness
of the work, and the superior manner in which it is got up,
cannot fail to ensure it a very extensive sale."
THE LITERARY GAZ ETTE.—" This undertaking is worthy
of the rising talent of Mr. Godwin, and promises to be a
very complete and interesting production. The number be-
fore us is altogether a favourable specimen."
THE SAME. Nov. 10.—" This pretty little publication
proceeds with undiminished neatness and accuracy in its
graphic, and with increasing interest in its typographic de-
partment." _ _

of a very neat kind. In this number there is, moreover, a
view of St. Mary-le-Bow, Cheapside, and another of St.

are of more than ordinary interest. The latter especially

"YANG,"
THE CENTRAL FIRE

WWHEN Ke-shin, or "The Dreaded Hour," was appoint-
V V ed Commissioner at Canton, and every Journal headed
the intelligence then received with" Settlement of the Chi-
nese Dispute—Three Millions to be paid the English—Trade
resumed at Canton," &c., CAPTAIV PIDDING'S 18 ,
years' experience of the Chinese told him that his country-
men had been duped ; and he predicted that, " though Ke-
shin might promise millions, he would never pay a dollar ;
that, instead of resuming trade, he would e orce its stop-
page, to keep the English without tea ; " a d that " Elliot
would rue the hour" when he first relied Ke-shin's pro-
mises. The public now know whose ju ment of the Chi-
nese has proved correct, CAPTAIN EL OT'S or CAPTAIN
PIDDING'S ; and they see that CAPTAI. PIDDING'S predic-
tion has been verified to the letter. " ANG," the Chinese
definition of whose name is " The Central Fire," has suc-
ceeded Ke-shin. " YANG " has officially recommended
" the withholding all tea from the English, until their sup-
ply is quite exhausted," when he foretels that " they will
become reverently submissive, and give gold for the precious
leaf." Commodore Bremer's despatch mentions that " the
Chinese had removed all the tea from Canton," and the
statement that " 200,000 Chinese were ready to sack and
burn the city," is singularly prophetic of Yang's name.
CAPTAIN PIDDING still thinks that the force sent out will
be found insufficient to coerce China, that no tea will come
out whilst bullets pour in, and that " teas will be dearer
than ever." CAPTAIN PIDDING'S Teas were formerly sold
under the title of " Howqua's Mixture," and " Howqua's
Small Leaf Gunpowder" ; but hundreds of Grocers and Tea-
dealers, anxious to profit by the celebrity of tea which he
alone imports, and which they found it impossible to procure,
have given the same title to rubbish of their own mixing, so
that there is now scarce one but has his " Howqua s,"
" Mowqua's," " Saoqua's," or some other mixture. Against
such imposition, the only security is
" CAPTAIN PIDDING'S NAME."
This they have not yet forged, and his signature is on every
really genuine package. For country agencies, address Cap-
tain Pidding, 22, College-hill, London.

SCHWEPPE'S SODA AND POTASS WATERS
AND JERATED LEMONADE. ,
THE continued preference of the Public for the above
celebrated preparations (notwithstanding the low price
at which imitations are rendered), so abundantly proves
their superior quality, that it only remains for the manufac-
turers to express their acknowledgments, and to caution
consumers against an imposition frequently practised by un-
principled persons filling SCHWEPPE'S bottles with a
spurious composition, and passing it off as SCHWEPPE'S
manufacture. None are genuine without a label represe t-
ing the name of their firm.
SCHWEPPE'S LIQUID MAGNESIA.
This elegant solution is produced by the aid of thei ower-
ful machinery skilfully directed, and consists of t purest
distilled water, and the best carbonate of magnetia. This
invaluable alkali in the
.fluid form is so rapidly ;superseding
its use in the solid state for cases of Gout, Ctrviltel, Diseases
of Children, Sea Sickness, &C., avoiding, asil does, the in-
jurious tendency of the latter to lodge and accumulate in the
bowels, that the Public abtention cannot be too often directed
to the source where they may obtain the preparation in the
highest state of perfection. Manufactured at 51, Berners'-
street, London ; and sold, wholesale, at their branch manu-
factories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby, and at the Lon-
don Patent Medicine Houses.
