1. THE SPEECHES OF THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY IN THE 

 HOUSE OF LORDS, with a preliminary dissertation on the revival of De- 

 o sthenic oratory. 



" Those ancient, whose resistless eloquence 

 Wielded at will that fierce democratic, 

 Shook the arsenal and fulmined over Greece 

 To Macedon and Artaxerxes throne." 



' Posterity will resort to this work as to a fountain of the edivinest eloquence 

 and the soundest wisdom/ Morning Post. 



' We envy the editor of this collection the honour of the task he has so ably 

 performed. ' An orator, a statesman, a philosopher, Lord Londonderry has a 

 triple title to immortality.' Quarterly Review. 



' When the eyes of the British public shall have been opened to the intrinsic 

 littleness and false brilliancy of such men as Brougham, Grey, and Plunket, the 

 nobleman whose mighty efforts in rhetoric are here collected will be the idol of 

 his country/ Slackwood. 



' The Marquis has a master-mind/ Lady's Magazine. 



2. CONSOLATIONS OF A LAWYER, OR, BEAUTIES OF TIDD'S PRACTICE. 

 By SIR E. B. SUGDEN, M. P. 



" Neque semper arcum 

 Tendit Apollo/' 



' Long a desideratum in our literature/ Law Magazine. 



. ' Tidd is a master of the English tongue. His style has, perhaps, never been 

 equalled except by the author of the work before us." L"gal Examiner. 



' We are no longer at a loss to discover the source of the peculiar gracefulness 

 of Sir Edward's parliamentary style. He is deeply imbued with Tidd/ 

 Standard. 



3. PLEASURES OF PUSH-PIN, A POEM IN THREE CANTOS. By a re- 

 tired Tory statesman. 



' A deep draught of Helicon/ St. James's Chronicle. 



' Original, exquisite, sublime/ Morning Post. 



' Uninfluenced by party-spirit, we pronounce this to be the noblest poem in 

 the language/ -<4ge. 



' Nobody but Lord Francis Leveson Gower could have sung thus/ Quarterly 

 Review. 



4. CORDERII OPERA OMNIA QU.E SUPERSUNT. Edited by DR. BLOM- 

 FIELD, Lord Bishop of London, Rector of Bishopsgate Without, &c. 

 &c. &c. 



The text is founded on an examination of at least one thousand MSS. 

 readings. The variations of Dindorff, Schweighreuser, Cruginus, and 

 the learned Poppo, are given at the bottom of each page; and an 

 appendix is subjoined on the disputed semicolon in the third dialogue. 

 The editor trusts he has succeeded to some extent in throwing light 

 upon that vitally important and too long neglected point. If so, he will 

 not consider the labour of many years misplaced or unrewarded. 



' Who will say, after this great work, that church preferments are distributed 

 without regard to merit ?' Standard. 



' Such an edition of Cordery can only be rewarded by Canterbury/ Morning 

 Post.
