I. The lectures of Mr._Chenevix Trench pomace poetical elegarme ciestyle, and an earnestness of moral purpose, in addition to various learniag and phhological acquirement. The force, the power,, the poetry thatlarlailn the original meaning of words—the historical facts they contain, or the historical events which they establish, andthe teet of a nation's chum* and condition which they may be made to furnish, are the principal hutnot the sole object of Mr. Trench.

Trench was a clergymen„avowedlY addultaiii8 nicto" to the. teachers of youth, and the topic is not overdone either in matter or manner,, while it furnishes variety. of subject and illustration..

Outlines, combines the history of the rimettinhaime"a Britain, and the history of the English language,. in pretty equal propor- tions. He- endeavours. to establish the nature of the ancient Beitish Ian.- ftuWi. and to what extent the Roman had been able to engraft itself upon it.. He: then. traces our present language through the settlement of the Saxon*, the invasions of the Danes' and the Norman.

For use. in Senior Schools. By Daniel Serymgeour; Circus. Place School, Edinburgh. [This, is an attempt to oombine the literary excellence- which characterised the selections of the old " Readers " with the attempt to impart solid in- • formation that has been the aim of some of-their modern successors. Hum- boldt, Bell, Nichol,. Chalmers, and other contemporary writers who have I combined eloquence with science, are freely drawn upon for passages re- lating to natural science ; Brougham, Macaulay, Jeffrey, and similar authors, together with the most eloquent travellers, for extracts bearing upon his- tory, historical characters,. descriptive geography, or natural history. Mr. See geour has also furnished a synopsis of general. history, ancient and me in, and an etymological- appendix. There is some miscellaneous: poetry, which scarcely falb within the prose classification.] A Practical Grammar of the Italian Language; for the use of the Stu- dents of London University College. By L. Mariotti.

[This grammar is. founded upon Robello's " Grammaire Italienne," and Claims to be the first really English-Italian Grammar, the generality of the Italian grammars being translations from the French. Its merit chiefly lies in its mastery of the principles of the language, and the manner in which they are presented. For practical' use, it would. admit of improvement in a new edition. The- exercises are not graduated;-that is, a pupil has to use verbs before he has reached them; and the definitions of parts of speech de- signedly omitted-should be-supplied. The pupil may readily know them, or he may not ; but' they occupy little room, and no grammar can be complete without them."

ph American importation. The book is a series of lectures, taking an en- tire survey of. English literature and language from the Saxon times to the age of Burke- and Johnson. It consists of brief notices of the lives and literary characters of British writers, with specimens of their writings ; re- sembling in fact, Chambers's " Cyclopmdia of English Literature," to which the author acknowledges he is indebted. There is nothing remarkable in the book, beyond the-number of names it-embraces and the extent of ground it travels! over.] BolelPonfis.

[A miscellaneous collection of- prose and poetry from Calcutta,-as the title, meaning a. bowl of puneb„. intimates,. The verse is fluent, but imitative; coutinuallyreminding one-of some otherwriter, from Byron-to the Annual poets.

[This eighth edition contains a good deal' of new matter relating to improve- ments and advances connected with steam power or steam locomotion. Dr. Lardner adduces convincing proofs as to the falsehood of the pointed sentence attributed to him touching the impracticability of crossing the Atlantic. But, notwithstanding his speech from the. Times of the 27th August 1837, his sound advice to the projectors at the outset, and the truth of his prophecy that the thing. wouldMot pay without aid from Government, we doubt whether the false dictum will not-still circulate.
