The Sheep ; Management in Health and Diseases. By G. 
Armatage, M.R.C.V.S. Frederick Warne & Co., London and 
New York. 
Works of any value relating to this valuable domestic ani¬ 
mal are lathei uncommon, and on that account anything which 
is to be presented to the ovine breeders and medical attendance 
is not to be overlooked. We certainly have enjoyed the recent 
work of Mr. Armatage, and can recommend it to our readers as 
one which, in its 200 pages, will present in the twenty-five 
chapters all the preliminaries necessary to the cares and man¬ 
agement of sheep. 
Traite de lage des Animaiix Domestiques . Treatise of the 
age of the domestic animals. By Prof. Chas. Cornevin & F. 
Lesbre, of the Veterinary School of Lyons. J. Bailliere & 
Pils, 18 Rue Hautcfeuille, Paris. 
Since 1824, when J. Girard published in book form his first 
ti eatise on the age of the horse, many books have been pre¬ 
sented to veterinarians and breeders of animals in almost every 
language, and piobably none has received more success than the 
part of the work of Goubaux & Barrier’s “External Form of the 
Horse, which was so well translated by Prof. Harger, and 
published by a well-known house of Philadelphia, or that of 
Dr. ITuidekoper, and yet in this last publication of Prof. Cor¬ 
nevin & Lesbre we find some facts which are missing in previous 
works, and elements of close observation. The work is divided 
into twelve chapters, and covers the wide field of the age of 
domestic animals, from the horse down to the fowl. Over 200 
illustrations serve to present to the reader characters of ages 
which will help considerably in the practical application of the 
theoretical demonstration given in the entire work. 
Traite d Obstetrique V etermaire . Treatise of Veterinary 
Obstetrics. By F. St. Cyr & J. W. Violet. Asselin & Hou- 
zeau, Paris. 
We have just received this most important work. We re¬ 
serve the consideration of the entire book at the latter period,
