Extract fiom the Adrerlisement.—" The Xaiurai. H/story of Selborne lias 

 probablj' been sup;ios*d by many to be formed upon a more local aud conBned 

 plan than it really is. In fact, the greater part of the Observations are appli- 

 cable to all that ]X)rtion of the island in which the Author resideii, and were 

 indeed made in various places. Almost the oidy matter absolutely local, is 

 the account of the Antiquities of the Village of Selborne; and this seemed 

 to stand so much apart, that, however nell calculated to gratify the lovers of 

 topographical studies, it was thought that its entire omission would be no loss 

 to the Work, considered as a publication m Natural History." — ' The Editor 

 flatters himself that, in its present form, it will prove an acceptable addition 

 to the library of the Naturalist, and will in particular be useful in inspiring 

 young persons, and those who pass their time in retirement, with a taite for 

 the very pleasing branch of knowledge on which it treats."

" Although the pieceding notices and extracts can convey to our readers a.
