The Locomotive Publishing Company send us some specimens of their

Railway Pictorial Postcards. (2s. per dozen.) They are very effective representations of locomotive engines of our many railways, home and foreign. We can imagine two classes of persons to whom they will be highly interesting. There are boys with a mechanical turn who know one kind of locomotive from another, a "Swansea," for instance, from a "Farncombe" or a. "Barcombe"; the other will be of dwellers in some remote region where the sight of these things are unknown, where long journeys are made by the help of horse or ox. Moat of our readers will be able to think of someone, of this class or of that, to whom a packet of these cards will be a welcome present.
