signs by AsGAs, DANDY, WOLF, ZwEcKER,

BURR & Co. .s
These are large octave volumes, very
literally illustrated in very good style. The
author. DR.. WooD, Of London, has displayed
very great industry, aud we think accuracy,
in the preparation and arrangement OF bis
book. He has followed the best authors,
and be has omitted none of the barbarian and
savage races known to the civilized world.
His work contains material that cannot be
found in any one library. The plates are not
only good, but appropriate and useful to the
book. The text is good in style and highly
instructive. We know no greater treat to the
youthful men than studying the plates and
reading the explanations of them. The youth
full mind, moreover, derives benefit from
sudyipg barbarous life. 1t acquires heroic
ideas and fortitude under the trials and
hardships of life from the rude strategy and
implements of savage economy. And since
this book seems to be industriously and nc
curately made out Of the best materials OF
best authorities, we very earnestly commend
it to our young friends as well as their eld-
ers, fer the latter will assuredly find inter-
est in it. We never saw book that enter
tanned the Young reader that did not enchaln
the attention of the matured man and also
his senior. ...'....."

We cannot speak adyisedly Of the merits
of this book but the trials of n Virginia
orphan will excite curiosity and interest in
Old Virginia. We gather from cursory
glance that the heroine must have been to
China. There are letters from that fowery
kingdom, and descriptions of land and sea.
