Man.—Messrs. Stanford have published, with accompanying notes, A Map of

the Parliamentary Boroughs within the County of London. Before 1832 London had eight boroughs, and part of the representation of two counties. In 1867 it had ten, and part of three counties. It has now fifty-six, returning fifty-seven Members, not counting the University. (The two Hams are not within the county.) This is a most seasonable publication. The map, which has on its face the populations and political representation of the boroughs, is a good piece of work.—We have also received from the same publishers, in four sheets, Stan/ore's New Orographical Map of the World, in which the various elevations are marked by variations of colour.
