The Catalogue of the Library of Dr. Kloss o , f Franrfort,

which Mr. SOTHEBY will shortly submit to the hammer, is rich in scarce, curious, and valuable books, besides a variety of manu- scripts. The division of the collection is sixfold,—classics, di- vinity, civil and ecclesiastical law, ancient grammatical treatises, and early specimens of the typographical art illustrative of the progress of printing. Independent of the literary and bibliographi- cal value of this library, many of the books have an adventitious yet higher interest, from having been the property of MELANCTHON, who has enriched them with his annotations. The catalogue is prefaced by a Memoir of the great Reformer, and has several curious lithegiaphic fec-similes of his handwriting.
