 sixteen plates of Quadrupeds, &c., by B. WATERHOUSE HAWKINS, 

 F.L.S. Royal 16mo. 10*. d. coloured. 



"The present increase of our stores of anecdotal matter respecting every kind of 

 animal has been used with much tact by Mr. White, who has a terse chatty way of putting 

 down his reflections, mingled with easy familiarity, which every one accustomed daily 

 to zoological pursuits is sure to attain. The book is profusely illustrated." Atlas. 



" Mr. White has prosecuted natural history in almost all its branches with singular 

 success, and in the beautiful work before us has gone far to raise up young aspirants as 

 eager, if not as accomplished, as himself. No book can better answer its purpose ; the 

 descriptions are as bright as the pictures, and the kind-hearted playfulness of the style 

 will make it an especial favourite. Unlike some popular manuals, it is the product of 

 first-rate science." English Presbyterian Messenger. 



19. VOICES FROM THE WOODLANDS; or, History of Forest Trees, 



Lichens, Mosses, and Ferns. By MARY ROBERTS. Royal 16mo. 



Twenty plates by Fitch. 1 Os. 6d. coloured. 



"The fair authoress of this pretty volume has shown more than the usual good 

 taste of her sex in the selection of her mode of conveying to the young interesting in- 

 struction upon pleasing topics. She bids them join in a ramble through the sylvan 

 wilds, and at her command the fragile lichen, the gnarled oak, the towering beech, the 

 graceful chestnut, and the waving poplar, discourse eloquently, and tell their respective 

 histories and uses." Britannia.

scription of the Plants most common to the British Isles, adapted to tin,

 enabling them with little difficulty to discover the scientific names of the common plants 

 they may find in their country rambles, to which are appended a few facts respecting 

 their uses, habits, &c. The plants are classed in months, the illustrations are nicely co- 

 loured, and the book is altogether an elegant as well as useful present." Illustrated
