and Fox, and Burke; of Thurlow, and Sheridan, and

in the historic narrative in their various degrees of ce- 
lebrity, and are characterised always with force and

W7(/i 51 extremely clever and comic Illustrations; 
extra cloth, gilt, (pub. at £1. Is) reduced to 10s 
1844 
" That very capital and comic work, 'Three Courses 
and a Dessert,' was published at a lime when the rage 
for comic stories was not so great as it has since be- 
come, and Messrs. Clark and Cruiksliank therefore only 
sold their thousands where Messrs. Dickens and Phiz 
dispose of their lens uf thousands. But if our recom- 
niendation can in any way influence the reader, we 
would enjoin him to secure a copy of the 'Thiee 
Courses,' which contains the best designs of George 
Cruiksliank, and some of the most amusing tales in our 
language." — Weft. Rev. 
"This is an extraordinary performance. Such an 
union of the painter, the poet, and the novelist, in one 
person, is unexampled. A tithe of the talent that goes 
to making the stories would set np a dozen of annual 
writers ; and a tithe of the inventive genius that is dis- 
played in the illustrations, would fnrnish a gallery of 
the Colour-mixers iu Essex Street and the- Strand." — 
Spectator. 
"The most amusing book we have read for many a 
day." — Aihentcum. 
"There must oe no smiling heie. A man who does 
not laugh outright is a dullard, and has no heart ; and 
there are some of these designs which have the liles5e<l 
faculty of creating laughter as often as you see them." — 
yVett. Rev.

reduced to 12s 1843 
This original and entertainino Diary is of 
THE SAME CHARACTER AND PERIOD AS EtELYN's, TO 
WHICH IT FORMS A VERY DESIRABLE COMPANION. 
The nature of this "Diary and Correspoudenct" may 
be in some degree anticipated, from the fact that the 
Diaiist was not only a brother of the celebrated 
Algernon Sidney, but that he succeS5:»ely filled the 
high Court and Political offices of Groom of the Bed- 
rhaiiiher. Master of the Bobcs, Envoy to the States of 
Holland, Cliii'f Secretary of State, Lord Lieutenant, 
General and Governor ok Ikeiand, Master-General 
of the Ordnance, Lieutenant-General of the Forces, 
and linally. Groom of the Stole, and First Gentleman 
ol the Bedchamber. He was also Member of Parlia- 
ment for Jiramber ; and (no trilling advantage in the 
Times and Court in which he ligured) contessedly the 
handsomest man of his day. That the Diary of such a 
• person, so placed in regard to the Court and Times of 
Charles II., must abound in features of unsurpassed in- 
terest and amusement need scarcely be stated. " A 
publication of great and permanent interest, that will 
take its place beside Evelyn and Pepys." — Naval and 
Militarp Gaxettg,
