Messrs. Marcus Ward's Christmas and New-Year's Cards, Tablets, and Calendars

have reached us, and are equal in excellence of design and variety of character and colour to those of previous years. The borders and vignettes, into which are introduced pictures of flowers, fruits, cereals, birds, animals, and fishes, are all very pretty and in- genious. The note-paper and envelope is a neat and clever conceit. They range in price from Id. to 2s. each, and are thus within the reach of all classes.
