each. The Pictorial World continues its bright course with the 



courage it evinced in starting, and is the most -welcome amongst 

 many periodicals devoted to the advancement of art. Every number 

 contains some superb examples of wood engraving, besides instruc- 

 tive and entertaining illustrations of events, discoveries, and the 

 news of the day. The establishment of a first-class illustrated 

 newspaper, at the low price of threepence, must be regarded as 



an important event in the history of literature. The Garden 



Oracle, for 1875, is announced to contain a great variety of new matter 

 of interest and importance to amateur horticulturists, and amongst 

 other things there is a new and carefully prepared selection of the 

 very besc hardy herbaceous plants.
