4. The Teignmouth, Dawlish, and Torquay Guide. By 

 N. T. Carrington. The Natural History by W. Turton, 

 M. D., and J. F. Kingston. In 2 vols. Published at Teign- 

 mouth. — We have lately examined several of the guides to 

 different districts in England, and consider this as one of the 

 best. The first volume contains full and accurate accounts of 

 the antiquities and descriptions of the scenery ; the second vo- 

 lume, which is entitled Natural History of the District, con- 

 tains full, and we think very interesting lists and notices in re. 

 gard to tlie animals, vegetables, minerals, and geological appear- 

 ances. We can safely recommend these volumes to the atten- 

 tion of our travelling friends. 



5. Elements of Practical Chemistry. By David Boswkll 

 Reid, Chemical Assistant to Dr Hope. 1 vol. 8vo. 500 pages, 

 with numerous Wooden Cuts. — From the style and execution 

 of Mr Reid''s former work, we were entitled to expect that the 

 present one would sustain the reputation he had obtained as an 

 active and skilful chemist. That he stands equally high in our 

 estimation as formerly, may be inferred from our recommend- 

 ing the present volume of practical instructions to the student 

 of chemistry, and also to those who may wish to become practi- 

 cally acquainted with this all-engrossing and delightful branch 

 of science.
