MR. AIURBAY'S LIST OF NEW WORKS. 11 



A METHODICAL, AJ^ALYTICAL, & HISTOEIOAL 

 GRAMMAR OF THE ENGLISH TONGUE. 



BY PROFESSOR MAETZNER, of Berlin. 



Tbanslated by CLAIR J. GRECE, LLB. 



3 vols. 8vo. 36s. 



"A stupendoushj elaborate loorh, ichich only the patience of a German professor could have 

 brought to completion. It is an exhaustive treatise, from every conceivable point of view, on, 

 the grammar of our language. We cannot but appreciate it as a high national compliment ; 

 at the same time we must confess to some astonishment that an English grammar should be 

 carried to afar greater length than any Greek grammar with which ice are acquainted. One 

 would suppose that our tongue was not so complex and intricate as to require for its discussiox 

 three closely-printed octavo-volumes averaging each 500 pages." — Spectator. 



THE LAND OF MOAB. 



BY CANON TRISTRAM, M.A., LL.D., F.R.S., 



Author of " The Land of Israel," " Natural History of the Bible." 

 Second Edition. "With. Map and Plates, Post 8vo. 15s. 



" Canon Tristram carries a pen, and a very deft and ready pen, and when there is anything 

 to tell he knows how to tell it ; and so Moab has been reft from the domain of the iinknown and 

 unknowable, and lies all mapped out and photographed and described. Altogether the book is 

 a very interesting one, and tve can only hope future explorers will imitate Mr. Tristram's 

 part in the zeal and thoroughness of his research." — Saturbay Eeview. 



"Mr. Tristram's volume is a very pleasant and readable story of travel told by one vjho is 

 an old hand at the work, who keeps his ears and eyes open, and has the art of skilfully 

 describing what he observes." — Spectator. 



THE NATURALIST IN NICARAGUA. 



A NARRATIVE OF A RESIDENCE AT THE GOLD MINES OF CHONTALES 

 AND OP JOURNEYS IN THE SAVANNAHS AND FORESTS; 



With Observations on Animals and Plants. 



BY THOMAS BELT, F.G.S. 



With Illustrations. Post Svo. 12s. 



"An excellent attempt to deal with tlie natural history of one of the finest and most fruitful 

 countries of the globe. Mr. Belt has taken for his model Mr. Bates's ' Naturalist on the Eiver 

 Ama-zon,' and to that gentleman he dedicates his tvork. We may say, in the first place, that 

 the present book is well worthy of thut on which it was formed, and, in the second, that loe can 

 bear personal testimony to the fidelity of the first four chapters, and we can therefore trust 

 the remainder, which we have also read with deep interest." — Standard.

" Those who desire to read tales of adventures in the Polar Seas, while at the same time theg 

 obtain a connected account of geographical discovery in the Arctic regions, should procure Mrs. 

 Chisholm's charming volume. The authoress has consulted all tlie best authorities, and culled 

 from tiiem facts which she has weaved into one harmonious narrative of sKstamed inie7'estf
