T. C. Crokeh, because, in proportion as 

 information is multiplied relative to that 

 fine and interesting country, public intelli- 

 gence will promote its wished-for im- 

 provement. The work is purely antiqua- 

 rian; and, as the ground was in part unex- 

 plored, the information is new and curi- 

 ous. The whole is enriched witli a great 

 number of very neat lithographic en- 

 gravings from original drawings; and, like 

 the information in the letter-press, they 

 will prove at once new and interesting to 

 general readers. 



Mr. Ten N A NT's Continental Tour is a 

 pleasant book for summer reading; and 

 conveys a popular, though not very pro- 

 found, view of the Low Countries, Ger- 

 many, France, and Switzerland. For our 

 parts, we do not like it the worse because 

 the author has forborne to bore ns with 

 political economy and its vagaries, nor 

 with agriculture and its calculations. In 

 its way, this book is in good keeping, and 

 its general interest is exalted hy the intro- 

 duction of some unpublislied letters of 

 Napoleon, which exhibit the character of 

 that great man in an amiable ponit of 

 view. The fac-siniiles verify them. 



The disorganization of the Spanish colo- 

 nies has, it seen)s, enabled a number of 

 pirates of all nations to rendezvous in the 

 neighbourhood of Cuba, who, besides 

 plundering much in vessels, have barba- 

 rously treated the crews. Of these atroci- 

 ties a Mr. Aaron Smith has published a 

 faithful narrative, and it n:erns a general 

 perusal. Poor Smith, it appears, being 

 taken among pirates, was himscit tried as 

 one at the Old Bailey ; but, happily, 

 acquitted.
