W. WestalPs Views of the Ixikes of. Cumberland. — Four 

 views, the number for 1835, 3s. 6d. each, are about to be pub- 

 lished. A notice of this fact is not wholly out of place, rightly 

 speaking not at all so, in this Magazine ; and may be welcome 

 to those of our readers who have visited the lakes, or may 

 purpose visiting them. One view exhibits " Keswick Lake, 

 from Friar's Crag: — Evening;" another, "Bowness Bay, Lake 

 Windermere, from above the Vicarage Road;" another, 

 " Lake Windermere, from Low Wood Inn ;" and the remain- 

 ing one, " Bassenthwaite Lake, from the Keswick Road, near 

 the sixth Milestone." The more obvious of the features in 

 each view are designated by names written at the foot of the 

 plate, opposite the features called by these names.
