NEW PUBLICATIONS.

THROUGH the courtesy of Hon. Casey
Young we are in receipt of the Official
Gazette of the United States Patent
Office, No. "a. 1t Is complete record
of the patents issued during the week
ending June oath, all of them hand
somely illustrated.
WE have received from the publisher,
VIII. Newton, 8 pamphlet entitled "The
only authenticated copy, full and COM
plete, of the Last Will and Testament OF
George Washington, OF Mount Vernon,
embracing Schedule of his Real Estate
and Explanatory Notes thereto by the
testator, to which is added important
Historical Notes, Biographical Sketches,
and Anecdotes"
Mr.. J. P. PRESCOTT is agent for Eu-
rope Illustrated, a pictorial publication
Of rars merit, and one that should find
place in every well selected library. It
is issued to subscribers only, in semi
monthly parts at thirty cents each, and
will, when completed, make q super
royal quarto of four hundred and fifty
pages Of letter-press, and one hundred
and fifty full-psge steel engrsviDgs. The
illustrations are taken from original
drawings made upon the spot, by some
of the most widely celebrated artists OF
Europe, including Leitch Turner, Allom
and Bartlett, and are engraved on steel
in a style worthy both of the scenes de-
linested and of the artists whose works
are thus transferred. The reader Is first
introduced to Paris, and, after being
shown every place of interest in the gay
capital, is taken round the suburbs, and
thence into the provinces. After sur
veying the greater part of France,
Belgium is next entered upon, and
thence the traveller naturally turns up
ward along the banks of the Rhine, the
picturesque beauty Of which is 1nsur-
passed IN any other country OF the
world. To have begun at any other
point than France, which presents An
epitome of European life and character,
would have been like the Interpolation
of the prelude In the middle OF a piece
of music.
