THE SOLAR ECLIPSE, 



Or, THE TWO ALMANACKS ; containing More Enquiries in 

 Astronomy. Plate and diagrams, Is. or Is.Gd. bound and coloured. 



" Just the sort of book we love to put into the hands of young persons. It 

 invites them to enquiry and makes them laudably curious. There is in this 

 little -work much valuable information, both on the solar system and ou 

 Comets, which, just now, will be peculiarly attractive." London Journal. 



"There are editions on common paper which may be had for a trifle, and 

 one of which should be in every family within the nation, where ignorance 

 or children may be found. We cannot conceive of any means by which the 

 majesty and power of the Almighty is to be so easily and forcibly impressed 

 upon the uninformed mind, as by putting this little tract into the hands of 

 such. That must be a heartless and wicked parent, who will not enjoy the 

 earnestness and ingenuity of the thousand interrogatories that will there- 

 after be innocently proposed by the same enquirer."--.Jf<m<Wy Review.

THE REVOLUTIONS OF THE GLOBE, 



Familiarly Described. By ALEXANDER BERTRAND, M.D. &c. 

 With an Appendix, giving a succinct account of every Theory, from 

 that of Ray, in 1692; to that of George Fairholme's "Geology of 

 Scripture," in 1833. 



"It is one of the most agreeable works we have met with. The object of 

 the author is, to convey to the idlest and least learned reader an idea of the 

 wonders of Geology. * * * The surface of the globe is not a new sub- 

 ject ; yet see how interesting our author makes it Spectator*

THE FOSSIL FLORA OF GT. BRITAIN; 



Or, Figures and Descriptions of the Vegetable Remains found in a 

 Fossil State in this Country. By JOHN LINDLKY, Ph.D. F.R.S. 

 JL.S. and G.S. &c. &c. ; and WILLIAM HUTTON, F.G.S. &c. 



"This excellent work has now readied the eighteenth number, and, as we 

 understand, draws near to its completion. The numbers contain about ten 

 plates each, which are carefully drawn, and beautifully engraved. The plants 

 are named and described; their analogies to existing species pointed out; 

 their localities indicated. When the number of plates, and their accuracy 

 and beauty is considered, its price is very moderate, the charge for the whole 

 as far as it has gone, not much exceeding four pounds. It is the first work 

 in which any account approaching to completeness of the Fossil Flora of Great 

 Britain has been given. * To the Geologist it is indispensable. The 

 Botanist must find it instructive; and to all liberal and enquiring minds it 

 presents interesting matter for reflection, as a record of extinct races of or- 

 ganized bodies, throwing light on the state of the Globe myriads of years be- 

 fore man existed. * * '"Scotsman, Oct. 7, 1835. 



" This curious and interesting volume, * * * In truth, it may be consi- 

 dered as a geological annual." Atherueum, on the First Volume. 



"This work is an important contribution to the science of British, and, in- 

 deed, of universal geology ; and we trust will be so patronised by the scien- 

 tific men of our country, as to cause it to be proceeded in with spirit and 

 satisfaction by its authors and proprietors. * The preface is a rich and 

 valuable essay on Fossil Botany." London's Mag. of Natural History, $c 



* No. XXII, being the Sixth Number of Volume III, price 5s. C</., will 

 be published on July 1, 1837 ; to be continued every Three Months.
