Atlantic Coast Pilot.— Boston to New 

 Yokk.— V. S. Coast Survey, Washington, D. 

 C.; John Serviae Bradford, AaBlstaut, U. S. 

 Coast Surrey. 



. Coast and Geodetic Surrey baa again 

 laid yachtsmen under obligations to it by the 

 publication of the most complete coast pilot yet 

 compiled for any stretch of coast at home or 

 abroad. By the use of the charts already in its 

 possession and the systematic arrangement of 

 (he surveys made from Boston to New lork, a 

 •volume has boon given to the nautical public for 

 the small price of §3.60, which under other cir- 

 cumBtataefl could not have been produced for 

 leas than ten times that sum. It contains nu- 

 merous charts on an 80,000 scale on parchment, 

 am! views of approaches to channels and har- 

 bors ; a general description of the coaat line and 

 adores; a detailed description of aU dangers and 

 obstructions; sailing directions; position of light- 

 houses and beacons ; information concerning 

 fog-signals, tidea, currents, ice and compass vari- 

 ations ; the pilot laws of New York and t>lso an 

 appendix relating to the currents at the entrance 

 to the Gulf of Maine. The volume is in short i 

 complete collection of all that is required by tin 

 coa=tiug and yachting fraternity. As a book of 

 roferenoe upon all mutters relating to tho coast- 

 line and off shore character of the sea and sound 

 it is an invaluable guide to mariners, and the ex- 

 tremely low price at which tho book is issued 

 places it within the reach of all. The efforts the 

 Coaat Survey is making and the amount of i 

 ful work turned Out by it upon tho niggardly 

 pittance allowed by Congress sh ould receive the 

 heartiest approval or those who desire to see in 

 government something more practical than the 

 disgusting display of sensationalism and section- 

 al animosities which occupy most of the time of 

 the wise men at Washington. Vet the very 

 iatence of this bureau , one of the few in which 

 Americana may tako pride, was threatened with 

 extinction at the same moment that a raid for 

 millions for pensions was made upon the Treas- 

 ury. The body of the work is printed in large, 

 clear type, the more important parts in pica and 

 the lesser dangers and notioes in minion, w 

 the sailing directions are well leaded. With this 

 on the- shelves of the ship's library, there will be 

 no need of other charts, and no excuse for feel- 

 ing one's way with the board or following a 

 hooker, customs still too frequent among ama- 

 teur sailers. But to be appreciated, this now 

 volume must be seen. It is to be obtained at 

 all the navigation stores in this city. The same 

 material is also published in seven different 

 parts for local use ; each part 60 cents. They 

 run from Boston Bay to Monomoy ; Buzzard's 

 and Narraganaett Bays ; Block Island and Fish- 

 er's Island ; Sound with Gardiner's Bay ; Nan- 

 tucket and Vineyard Sound ; Long Island Sound 

 and East River ; harbors in same and South ooaat 

 of Long Island. In these forma the informatioa 

 ia somewhat more handy and readily found. A 

 colored chart of the sea approaches of New York 

 is a special feature of the book, showing the 

 deep tonguo-liko gulley that makes in toward 

 the Sandy Hook Light-Ship. 



Sjl.th Australia, Illustrated by Photo- 

 graphs and Maps. Edited by Win. Marcus, 

 Esq. Sampson, Low & Co., London, Pub- 

 lishers, 1876. 



In view of the coming World's Exhibition at 

 Sydney and Melbourne, present interest iu the 

 development of Australia will be heightened. 

 Any information, therefore, relating to that won- 

 derful country will he welcomed by a great num- 

 ber of people. We presume it is safe to say, 

 however, that comparatively few persona have 

 any idea at all of the great and varied resources 

 of this continent, of the progross of its settle- 

 ment, or its present condition. They behave it 

 to be atlll a wilderness inhabited chiefly by kan- 

 garoos and savages, just as there are Londoners 

 even now, who imagine all Americans to bo abo- 

 rigines less than half redeemed by the inocula- 

 tion of the English Colonists who came here to 

 settle. If such is the opinion of any one, a pe- 

 rusal of the book before ua will instantly unde- 

 ceive him. Indeed, if we take ila principal 

 towns, cities, fields and plantations as standards 

 of estimate and measure, he will find them 

 scarcely surpassed by countries which have an 

 antiquity. The public buildings of Adelaide, for 

 instance, will compare favorably with those of 

 European cities, while the vast sheep and stock 

 ranges, granaries, and the Hill River farm, with 

 its wonderful machinery and implements, seem 

 the exact counterpart of tho stock rangeB of 

 Texas and Colorado and tho Dalrymple and War- 

 ner farma of Minnesota. The volume before us 

 contains 432 octavo pages, and is full of statis- 

 tics of rmicb value to emigrants and capitalists. 

 Just what all Australia was, and what a portion 

 of it Btill remains, may he gathered from another 

 volume which has just come from the printer.
