Hark ! The Herald Angels Sing. With illustrations. (Dutton and

Co., New York ; Griffith and Farran, London.)—This familiar Christmas hymn is here illustrated with fifteen engravings after pictures, most of which are famous. "The Chorister Boys," which serves as a frontispiece, is perhaps hardly good enough for its place ; but few, if any, of the others could be changed for the better. The engravings are of average merit.
