The Modern Elocutionist. Compiled and edited by J. A. Jennings.
(Carson Brothers, Dublin.)—A collection of prose and verse, taken chiefly from the works of modern authors, and intended for the use of teachers and students of elocution.
Messrs. De La Rue and Co. send us a packet containing a numerous assortment of Easter and Birthday Cards, the designs being varied and original, and the colours bright and artistic. The subjects de- picted embrace serious and caricature pictures of children, grown-up people of all ages, birds, and animals ; the Japanese and Oriental ones being the prettiest.—Messrs. Marcus Ward and Co. send us a box of Floral Crosses, with Easter wishes and verses, of a religious and devotional character. The designs are neat, and the various flowers are beautifully drawn and coloured. Most of the smaller cards in both series will be useful as book-markers ; and the larger ones are well adapted for Sunday School and other class-rewards.
