THE WILD SPORTS INDIA. With Remarks on the Rear.
ing and Breeding of Horses and the Formation Light
Irregular Cavalry. By Captain HENRY SHAKspEAR
Commandant, Nagpore Irregular Force vol, 12mo,
PIP. 2S3. 1860.
This Is the work of genuine sportsman-one OF
those men who seem born for no other purpose than
to destroy the lie of lower animals. 1t is not often
that such people take to writing books, but
when they do their productions are apt to be pecu-
iarly fascinating to large class of readers. There
seems, indeed, to be enough of the savage still ex-
listing in almost everybody to make the recital of
adventures among wild beasts next in the order of
interest to those of genuine war. This little book
is fit to rank with those of Cumming, Gerard,
and other heroes Of the chase whose deeds in
Africa and elsewhere have rendered them so ia
nous.

THE EIGHTH COMMANDMENT. CHARLES REApE vol.
limo, PIP. 276. 1860.
This volume is devoted to an exposition of the
morality of international theft, practsed under the
usages of modern civilization upon intellectual
property. The authors especial grievance seems
to be the adaptation of French plays by the Lon
don playwrights, with little regard to the interests
of the Partisan authors or their assignee, Mr.
Reade.

ours, and are, conjecture, intended to show
where the joke comes in.
