" The masterly manner in which Mr. Moore has 

 brought together his arguments, the great extent and 

 minuteness of his researches into ancient author- 

 ities, his intimacy with the customs and traditions of 

 other times, and his close and critical knowledge of the 

 ancient languages, will surprise the reader of his Trav- 

 els, who may have measured his talents by his songs."

THE ECONOMY OF MACHINERY AND 

 MANUFACTURES. By Chares Babbage. 

 18mo. 



" Of the many publications which have recently issued 

 from the press, calculated to give a popular and attractive 

 form to the results of science, we look upon this volume 

 as by far the most valuable. Mr. Babbage's name is 

 well known in connexion with the general subject of 

 which he has here undertaken to treat. But it will be 

 difficult for the reader who does not possess the volume 

 itself, to understand the happy style, the judgment and 

 tact, by means of which the author has contrived to lend 

 almost the charm of romance to the apparently dry and 

 technical theme which he has chosen." — Monthly Rev. 



OUSELEY'S REMARKS on the STATIS- 

 TICS and political institutions

 pectation," — Mational Oaiette.

 Wines, In 2 vols. 12mo. 



" The author is a gentleman of classical education, a 

 shrewd observer, a lively writer, whose natural manner 

 is always agreeable ; whose various matter is generally 

 entertaining and instructive; and whose descriptions 

 are remarkably graphic. The greater portion of his pages 

 have yielded us both profit and pleasure." — JVat. Oaz.

 vol. 12mo. 



[This edition exclusively contains the important documents and papers 

 which would have led to the seizure of the work in France, had they been

" Upon its high interest we need not enlarge : the personal adventures of 

 the princess, her journeyings on foot and on horseback, in disguise and in 

 her own character, her mental and bodily sufferlrigs, her hopes and her des- 

 pair, are a romance, and seem to belong to another age. They recall the 

 wanderings and the perils of our own Charles Kdward, with all the addi- 

 tional interest which must attach to the daring and the suffering of a vro- 

 ma.u."—Athtnsum.

 most curious and important works which has lately is- 

 sued from tbe press." — Spectator. 



" It was written at the suggestion of the late Mr. 

 Huskisson, and displays the fruits of much industry and 

 research, guided by a sound judgment, and embodying 

 more learning than is usually brought to bear on sta-

 philosophical spirit, knowledge and reflection, richness 

 of moral sentiment, and elegance of style, has altogether 

 no superior — perhaps no equal— among bis contempora- 

 ries. Some time ago we made copious extracts from the 

 beautiful work. We could not recommend the whole

 literary character, to the habits and consti- 

 tutional peculiarities of Men of Genius. 

 By R. R. Madden, Esq. In 2 vols. 12mo. 



" This is a very valuable and interestine work, full of new views and 

 curious deductions ; beginning with general remarks on the influence of lit- 

 erary habits on the c<»«islitution, and thence proceeding to make the theory 

 more actual by its application to particular instances. 



" His physical jiosraphies, if we may so term them, of Burns, Cowper, 

 Byron, and' Scott, are of a very curious and novel kind ; written with equal 

 feeling and observation. He traces Cowper's malady to its lioie source, 

 monomania on religious subjects; and the tone of the remarks is at once so 

 just and so candid, that we cannot do better than give a brief portion."^ 

 Literary Gazette.
