We have received Vol. II., Part I., of the Catalogue

of the Library of the India Office, by J. F. Blumhardt, M.A. (Eyre. and Spottiswoode). It is interesting to see the propor- tionate share occupied by various subjects. "Arts and Sciences" occupy sixty-three pages, of which "Divination and Magic" claim more than three. " Astrology " divides a page with "Astronomy." " Literature " has shoat seventy, of which fiction claims more than two-fifths. " Theology " is nearly equal, and " School-Books " occupy not quite half as much.
