luable accession to the inestimable 
science of gormandizing! Here glut- 
tony may learn to gorge itself into gout 
and apoplexy, in all the different ways, 
we suppose, of all the nations of the 
earth. And how interestingly pictu-

How delightfully instructive !

Papyro-Plastics is a pleasing little 
book for children, on the Art of Mo- 
delling in Paper. The object is to make 
neat representations, in paper, of any 
given object, on a small scale, and it is 
performed by drawing, cutting, folding, 
and painting. The instructions in draw-

of the elementary problems in geometry, 
while the cutting and folding completes 
the given forms of chairs, tables, and 
other articles of furniture; houses, cof- 
tages, bridges, windmills, &c. Itis an 
ingenious and instructive amusement; 
the idea of which, we perceive, is from 
the German.

for the restriction and regulation of the 
employed, might also be characterized) 
as “ fit only to be carried into effect by a 
jury of butchers, with a Judge Jeffreys 
to direct them ;”’ the next, April 21, of 
the same year, on the Earl of Donough- 
more’s motion on the Catholic Claims ; 
and the other on presenting Major 
Cartwright’s petition for Parliamentary 
Reform. 
Among the annual and periodical 
publications, which, though they have 
no pretensions to literature, have the 
distinction of great and almost uniyer- 
sal utility, it would be censurable to 
have overlooked Boyle’s Court Guide, 
which we understand will be ready for 
delivery to booksellers and the public 
on the 3d of December. This very 
convenient little volume, published in 
so small a compass, as scarcely to be an 
incumbrance to the pocket of a tempo- 
vary visitor of the metropolis, and 
generally bound up with a sufficient 
degree
