Scaoor.-Boons.—Of school-books we have received in " Blackie's Latin Series,"
edited by R. G. Tyrrell, Litt.D. (Mackie and 'Bat), The First Oration of Cicero against Catiline, edited by Charles Haines Keene, M.A. (Is. 6d.) ; and from the same publishers. Macaulay's Essay on itaton, edited by John Downie, M.A. (2a.). Macaulay certainly does not show to the best advantage in this essay, but there is something in the contention that good use may be made of his errors and exaggerations. An appendix gives his " Retractations," on which a skilful teacher may found some in- structive remarks.—French Conversations. By Mdlle. Dehora de- St. Mande. Books III.-VI. (Swan Sonnenschein and Co. la each.)—Practical Lessons in Bookkeeping. By Thomas Challice Jackson, B.A. (W. B. Clive. 3s. 6d.)—A volume of the " University Tutorial Series."
