ESSAYS ON EASTERN QUESTIONS. By W. Gifford 

 Palgrave. 8vo. \os. 6d. 



" These essays arc full of anecdote and interest. The book is decidedly 

 a valuable addition to the stock of literature on which men must 

 base their opinion of the difficult social and political problems sul;- 

 gated by the designs of Russia, the capacity of Mahometans tor 

 soz'ereigtitv, and the good government and retention of India.''' — 

 Saturi A/ Review. 



DUTCH GUIANA. With Maps and Plans. 8vo. gj. 



''^ His pages are nearly exhaustive as far as facts and statistics go, 

 while they are lightened by graphic social sketches as well as sparkling 

 descriptions of scenery." — SATURDAY Review.

With Portraits after Richmond and from Photograph, engraved by 



Jeens. With Map. Fifth Edition. Two Vols. Crown 8vo. I2s. 



"Miss Vo7ige'swork is in one respect a model biography. It is made 



up alfnost entirely of Pattcfons own letters. Aware that he had left his 



hotne once and for all, his correspondence took tJieforyn of a diary, and 



as we read on we come to k?iow the ?nan, and to love him almost as if we 



had seen him." — Athen^UM. "Such a life, with its grand lessons oj 



unselfishness, is a blessing and an honour to the age in which it is lived ; 



the biiigraphy cannot be studied without pleasure and proft, and indeed 



we should think little of the man who did tiot rise from the study of it 



better and wiser. Neither the Church nor the nation which produces 



such sons need ever despair of tts future." — SATURDAY Review.
