Macmillan's School Atlas, Pkysical and Political. By J. G. Bar-
tholomew. (Macmillan and Co.)—This atlas reproduces on a smaller scale, and in a way that makes it suitable for moderate moans, many of the most useful features in the "Library Reference" Atlas lately published by the same firm. The " Astronomical Geography," exhibiting "The Solar System,"
"Eclipses," " Seasons," "Tides," &c., is one of the matters common to both. So are the plates that represent "The World, with the Limits of the Ocean, and their Drainage Areas; " "The World : showing Height of Land and Depth of Sea ; " "Characteristic Land Surface Features and Ocean Currents of the World," &c. In some respects tho School Atlas is more full than the larger work ; in the general maps it is naturally less so, England, for instance, being represented by one map instead of six. We should say that this is a very useful work, and excellently well adapted to its purpose.
