HISTORY OF ROMAN CLASSICAL 
LITERATURE. 
By R. W. BROWNE, M.A., Ph. D., Prebendary of St. Paul’s, and Professor of Classical 
Literature in King’s College, London. 
‘ Professor Browne is not only a classical scholar, but one of the most graceful of English modern writers. In 
clearness, purity, and elegance of style, his compositions are unsurpassed ; and his sketches of the lives and works 
of the great authors of antiquity are models of refined taste and sound criticism. This is a work which, for utility of 
design and excellence of execution, may challenge comparison with any which the present century has produced ; 
nor can we hesitate to regard it as a very valuable instrument for the instruction of the national mind, and the 
elevation of the national taste.’— Morning Post. 
In post 8vo. 7s. 6d. 
GEMS AND JEWELS: 
Their History, Geography, Chemistry, and Ana, from the earliest Ages down to the Present 
Time. By Madame BARRERA. 
‘ A really charming volume, as amusing as it is instructive, and in its graceful “ getting up” worthy of a place 
in every locality where useful books are as highly valued as carcanet or ruby. We cheerfully recommend her 
pretty volume to the general public.’— Athenjbom. 
Crown 8vo. 5s. 
STORIES FROM THE SANDHILLS OF 
JUTLAND. 
By HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN. Translated by Mrs. Bushby. 
‘ These stories are not exceeded by any of the same hand. His fancy, humour, tenderness, are in no respect dimmed 
or deadened. He is, as of old, a king and ruler in his own world without a peer. Few tales have been more touching 
than the first. “The Mad King’s Daughter” is also a capital t»le ; but, for one reason or other, every one of these 
stories could be commended. It is long since we have dealt with a book so fresh, so individual, so full to over¬ 
flowing with gamesome fantasies, right feelings, and pure morals as this.’— Athenjectm. 
‘ Andersen’s tales are welcome to every household and every age. They stand unrivalled for delicate 
humour and gentle wisdom.’— Saturday Review.

THE LETTERS OF JAMES BOSWELL TO 
THE REV. WM. TEMPLE. 
‘ Equally with the famous biography of Dr. Johnson, these Letters have the charm of sincerity—a charm which, 
as long as the world lasts, will be the greatest whieh the writings of one man can have for another. Boswell never 
disappoints us. He ls.an unfailing joke. Whether he writes about love, or riches, or literature, he is always the 
same, inimitable and inexhaustible. It is rarely that we come across a volume with so much to entertain us and 
make us laugh.’— Saturday Review.
