Rylands in his "Catalogue of the Birds of Lancashire" {Naturalist, Vol. II., 

 p. 349), it has been heard on the north-west side of England as high up as 

 Carlisle, but no further. 



Although we could otherwise but ill afford it, and although we must be exceed- 

 ingly brief, we cannot resist the temptation of recommending each individual part 

 of this work on its first publication.

The former of these Journals is issued on the 1st of every month, the latter 

 on the 15th. We have already (p. 283) recommended previous numbers to our 

 readers, as occasionally containing notices of interest on Natural History. The 

 works consist chiefly of reviews, original and extracted communications, notices 

 of recent patent inventions, &c. Wood-cuts, and sketchy full-lengths of indi- 

 viduals — the latter mostly of local interest — are given with each number. 



LITERARY INTELLIGENCE. 



Mr. Van Voorst announces that Professor T. R. Jones, of King's College, 

 has in preparation A General Outline of the Animal Kingdom, with 300 engrav- 

 ings, to be published in 15 monthly parts, the first to appear in July. The work 

 is intended to exhibit the structure and internal economy of every class of living 

 beings, and their adaptation to the circumstances in which they are designed to 

 exist. — Mr. T. B. Hall intends to publish in the autumn, by subscription, a 

 Flora of Liverpool, with a map. The plan, as set forth in the prospectus, is so 

 excellent, and Mr. Hall's zeal and knowledge as a botanisi are so creditable, that 

 we have no doubt of its proving a valuable flora. The Editor of this Journal 

 will be happy to receive the names of such intending subscribers as may not find 

 it convenient to address their letters to the author at Woodside. — The following 

 and other new books and periodicals have been received for review, and will 

 receive early attention : — The Connexion of Natural and Divine Truth, by the 

 Rev. Professor Powell, M.A., F.R.S., &c. ; A Treatise on Insects, by James 

 Wilson, F.R.S.E., M.W.S. ; A Treatise on Molluscous Animals, by the Rev. 

 Dr. Fleming; A Treatise on Mineralogy, by Professor Jameson.
