The Technologist. March, 1864. Edited by P. L. Simmonds, F.S.S.

(Kent and Co.)—The speciality of this monthly is the application of science to art, manufacture, and culture. Accordingly, we have two papers on the application of certain vegetable fibres to papermaking another on "Sericulture in Oudh," another on the economic uses of certain nuts and seeds. In short, the work is practical in its character rather than amusing, and will be found less attractive to the ordinary reader than to the agriculturist or manufacturer.
