This is the Great Text Book of Ethnologists. The remarkable series of coloured plates 

 accompanying this work forms a complete Pictorial Gallery of every variety of the Human Kace 

 Bcattered over the Globe. Advocates of the " One Pair Tiieory" will lind no corroboration of 

 their docti'ines in the facts set forth in Dr. Prichard's learned work. However, if we cannot call 

 all the Races of the World " brothers," we may surely treat them as " friends," and make our- 

 selves acquainted with their leading physical and mental characteristics.

The Natural History of Mammalia embraces an account of the structure and habits of all 

 the known species of Quadrupeds or Mamirals here descril)ed; to which are added observations 

 ii])on their geographical distribution and classification. Since the fossil and recent species illus- 

 trate each other, notices of the leading characters of the E.xtmct Species are also included. 



The genera, and many of the species, are illustrated partly by engravings on steel, and partly 

 by wood engravings. The modificatitons observable in the structure of the skulls, teeth, feet, and 

 other parts, are almost entirely illustraed by wood engravings.
