NOTES ON" BOOKS, ETC. 



Original Papers illustrative of the Life and Writings of 

 John 3Iilton, including Sixteen Letters of State tvritten 

 by him, now First published from 3ISS. in the State 

 Paper Office ; with an Appendix of Documents relating to 

 his Connection with the Powell Family. Collected and 

 Edited by W. Douglas Hamilton, of H. M. State Paper 

 Office. Printed for the Camden Society. 



The Camden Society have again rendered good service 

 to English Literature bv the publication of the present 

 volume, of which the varied and important contents are 

 so amply set forth in the title-page that we may confine 

 ourselves to the expression of our satisfaction that Mr. 

 Hamilton should thus have placed at the disposal of the 

 admirers of Jlilton, and all future Editors of his wocks, 

 these new materials for the personal and literary history 

 of the great poet. 



December seems to be a healthy month for Periodicals. 

 Frascr exhibits more than its usual excellence, and to 

 judge by its announcement of papers for the January 

 Number, means to open the New Year vigorously. Mac- 

 millan's Magazine opens, like Fraser, with a good article 

 on National Defences, and its crack paper, " Tom Brown 

 at Oxford" improves, as Tcm Brown ought to do at 

 Oxford. The Constitutional Press, in addition to its pre- 

 sent great attraction of Miss Youngc's tale of Hopes and 

 Fears, contains several excellent papers, among the best 

 of which is that on Sir E. B. Lvtton.

This is a rival in point of cheapness — for it is to be 



completed in nine shilling numbers — of the Boswell, 



which we have just noticed.
