In the "Scott Library" (Walter Scott, is. 6d.) we have
BefleCtions on the French Revolution, by Edmund Burke, with an Introduction by George Sampson. Mr. Sampson gives an excellent account of the circumstances which led to the writing of the book, and of the breach with Burke's political friends of which it was a sign. It is str 'age how the history of the Liberal party repeats itself ! Another volume is Orations of Cicero, selected and edited, with an Introduction, by Fred. W. Norris (Is. 6d.) The translation is that of W. Guthrie. and the orations chosen are• Pro Hoed() Amerino, In Caecilium, In Catilinam (4), Pro Murena, Pro Archie, Pro Milone, Pro Marcell°, Philippics (I.-II.) The Introduction gives a geneeil account of the orator, and a descripti al of the circumstances under which the several orations were d, livered.
