third magnitude inclusive; and many other tables too numerous 

 to be particularly noticed here, are all of the best description, 

 and will be found to be highly useful in every case of accuracy 

 where the aid of such tables is required. 



In short, this work contains one of the best small collections 

 of useful tables any where to be found, printed in a neat man- 

 ner ; and the permanent accuracy of the greater part is secured 

 by stereotype plates. We, therefore, confidently recommend it 

 to the notice of the public for the valuable matter which it con- 

 tains, for the accuracy of the tabular part of its contents, and 

 for the general utility of the whole, and that too at a very mo- 

 derate price.

 tory of the Himalayan Mountains^ and of the Flora of Cashmere, 

 By J. F. RoYLE, Esq. F.L.S., F.G.S., &c. No. 2. Folio. 

 Parbury, Allen and Company. London, 1834. 



We have great pleasure in announcing the publication of the 

 second Number of Mr Royle''s beautiful and valuable work ; 

 which contains, independently of nine well drawn and accurate- 

 ly coloured plates of new plants, and a geological section of the 

 Himalayan mountains from Sidowra to the Shatool Pass, also a 

 general description of the physical features of our Indian Em- 

 pire, and the commencement of a series of observations on the 

 botany of the Himalayan mountains, which cannot fail to in- 

 terest the botanist and instruct the general reader. 



.3. The Natural History of Animalcules ; containing Deseriptio7is of 

 all tJie known Species of Infusoria, with instructions for procuring 

 and viewing them, ^c. : Illustrated hy 300 magnified figures on 

 steel. By Andrew Pritchard, Esq. London : Whittaker 

 and Co. 8vo. Pp. 104. 1834. 



The discoveries of Professor Ehrenberg in regard to the 

 form, structure, functions, and distribution of the Infusoria, 

 first made known to the British public through the Edinburgh 

 Philosophical Journal, excited a very general interest among the 

 cultivators of the philosophy of zoology. The present volume 

 of Mr Pritchard on the Infusoria will, we doubt not, be read 

 with pleasure, and constantly consulted by all those who may 

 engage in the study of this curious branch of Natural History.
