 of the Himalayan Mountains, and of the Flora of Cashmere. By J» 

 Forbes Royle, Esq. F. R. S., M. R. A. S., &c. &c. Folio. W. and 

 C. Allen and Co. Leadenhall Street, London. 



Of this splendid and beautiful work which we have already noticed se- 

 veral times in this Journal, seven numbers have now appeared. It con- 

 tinues to increase in interest, and will, when finished, become a standard 

 work on the subjects which it treats. Mr Royle, who, we understand, is 

 about to return to India, will carry with him the thanks of European natu- 

 ralists, for the valuable information he has communicated to them, and their 

 best wishes for the continuance of his health in the vast field of discovery 

 which will again be opened to him. 



6. Lethaa Geognostica ; or Figures and Descriptions of the Characteristic 

 Petrifactions of the different Rock Formations. By Dr H. G. Bronn. 

 2d Part. Heidelberg, 1835. 



This second Part of Dr Bronn's valuable work on Fossil Organic Re- 

 mains, which has just reached us, is equally interesting with the first. 

 We are happy to learn that its continuance is secured, as, when finished, 

 it will form one of our best works on this important branch of geology 

 and general natural history.
