The Voyage of the " Challenger." — The Atlantic : A preliminary account o' 

 the general i-esults of the exploring voyage of H.M.S. " Challenger," 

 during the year 1873 and the early jiai-t of the year 1876. By Sir C. 

 Wyville Thomson, Knt., LL.D., D.Sc, F.R.SS.L.&E., Ac, Director 

 of the Civilian Stalf of the "Challenger" Exploring Expedition. 2 

 vols. Published by the authority of the Lords Commissioners of the 

 Admiralty. London : Macmillan and Co. 1877. Price 45s. 



These handsome, interesting, and instructive volumes are the latest 

 contribution to the history of deep-sea investigation. They follow in 

 natural sequence the author's former work, " The Depths of the Sea," 

 which gave an account of the general results of the dredging cruises of 

 the " Lightning " and "Porcupine," 1868-G',)-70, the scientific work of 

 which was under the direction of Sir Wyville Thomson, Dr. Carpenter, 

 and Mr. J. Gwjaa Jeffreys. These volumes in hko manner deal with 

 the Atlantic portion of the more i-ecent voyage of 11. M.S. " Challenger." 



It naust bo borne in mind that these two volumes are only a 

 preliminary instalment of the authoritative account of the general 

 robiilts of the " Challenger" voyage, and that years may yet elapse before
