I. Ox THE GENERAL SERIES. 



" These works are, indeed, locomotives on the railroad 

 of the mind, to bring with speed and profit the eager i 

 traveller to the terminus he must long seek in vain by any 

 other course." Atlas. 



" Works which, though of pygmy stature, comprise each 

 within its limits, the cream of a well-stored library. The 

 type, though small, is exquisitely clear ; and the pages are 

 so closely packed, that many a large folio contains less 

 matter than one of these extraordinary volumes." 



MoRNixG Advertiser. 



""What a terrestrial globe is to a multitude of maps, 

 these four little books are to an ordinary library. They 

 are the accumulation and condensation of knowledge upon 

 almost every subject ; and they offer, in a compact and 

 portable form, as much real instruction as is usually scat- 

 tered through many hundred volumes." Sun. 



II. Ox "The Treasury of Natural History." 



" The book is equally ads pted for, and ought to have a 

 place on, the library shelf, the drawing-room table, and 

 the nursery floor I but there is another place where, of all 

 others, it is loudly called for, — namely, in every zoological 

 nuseuniy where there should be a copy for every case" 



Cambrian.
