Part 5. The Dream of Rhonabwy, and the Tale of Pwyll Prince of Dyved.

"Genuine popular legends possess a high literary value, and must always be received with interest, although they may aspire to no greater elevation than that of a mere nursery tale; and amongst the most valuable which modern research has brought to light, must be placed Lady Guest's Mabinogion.' The tales are curious additions to the stock of undoubted Celtic remains. It is interesting to trace in their supernatural machinery the close connexion which subsists between the marvels of the East and of the West; and to find not only some of the wonders, but actually some of the incidents, which amused our childhood in the Arabian Nights,' told with earnest faith and wild poetry, by the Welsh bards of the twelfth century."-ATHEN ÆUM.

HAND-BOOK OF TASTE:

Or, How to Observe Works of Art, especially Cartoons, Pictures, and Statues.
PICTOR. Second Edition. Fcp. 8vo. 3s. boards.

By FABIUS

"We have never met with a compendious treatise on art, and the principles which should guide taste in judging of its productions, that contained more excellent matter than this small unpretending volume. It is expressly compiled for the instruction of the public, and with a view to that era in art which the decoration of the new Houses of Parlia ment, and the present display of the cartoons in Westminster Hall, may be expected to create. It exhibits the opinions of the best artists and critics of all ages. It is not intended to instruct the student in art, though he may profit much by its lessons, but to tell the observer how he may judge of the productions of the fine arts. It is not flattering to set out with saying that England, in the art of design, is not only immeasurably behind Italy, but falls short of what France aspires to, and Germany has accomplished; but this is qualified by the admission that England is, nevertheless, quite capable of efficient progress.

"The following rules, and those which precede them, should be well conned over before visiting exhibitions, and afterwards stitched up with our catalogue."-TAJT'S MAGAZINE.

HANSARD.-TROUT AND SALMON FISHING IN WALES.

By G. A. HANSARD. 12mo. 6s. 6d. cloth.

HARRIS.-THE HIGHLANDS OF ETHIOPIA;

20

Being the Accout of Eighteen Months' Residence of a British Embassy to the Christian Court of Shoa. By Major W. C. HARRIS, Author of "Wild Sports in Southern Africa," &c. Edition, 3 vols. with Map and Illustrations, 2. 28. cloth.

"In taking our leave of this very interesting work, we may express the hope that Major Harris will favour us with a fourth and concluding volume-an addition for which the events that intervened between the liberation of the princes and the departure of the embassy, the nature of the commercial treaty itself, and the adventures which occurred on the return, will supply ample materials. But even as it is, from the discoveries which it has imparted to us, and from the means of communicating with the interior of Africa which it discloses, it is one of the most important which have appeared in the present century, and one which promises to point the way to most extensive good, whether we refer to the advantages which may flow from that country to ourselves, or to those which we may confer upon it."-FOREIGN AND COLONIAL QUARTERLY REVIEW.

HOWITT (MARY).-A NEW SKETCH OF EVERY DAY LIFE:-A DIARY. Together with STRIFE and PEACE. BY FREDRIKA BREMER. Translated by MARY HOWITT. 2 vols. post 8vo. 21s.

"The success already attained by the fair translator in giving these Swedish novels an English dress has been carried out in this new work, the incidents of which are strongly marked with the characteristics of romance. There is not a little of singularity in both the dramatis personæ and train of events, in which real life in the far north is illustrated by Fredrika Bremer: but a high moral purpose is sedulously studied in all she writes. She obviously aims at enforcing the purest principles of domestic life, and her illustrations, however odd, are never inanimate or uninteresting. She is most amiable in her eccentricities, which lose nothing of their freshness and piquancy in their translation."-MORNING HERALD.

HOWITT (MARY). THE CHILD'S PICTURE AND VERSE BOOK, commonly called "Otto Speckter's Fable Book." Translated by MARY HOWITT.: With French and German on corresponding pages, and illustrated with 100 Engravings on Wood by G. F. Sargent. Square 12mo. 10s. 6d. boards.

"Otto Speckter's illustrations are well calculated to please children: some by their truth, others by their humour. The verses, too, are in a kindly spirit-some sly, some chiming in those coral-and-bells measures which ought never to be out of the ear of such as write for the very young. Mrs. Howitt has, in naturalizing this book, done a good deed with a good grace."—ATHENEUM.

HOWITT. THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF JACK OF THE MILL, commonly called "Lord Othmill;" created, for his eminent services, Baron Waldeck, and Knight of Kitticottie; a Fireside Story. By WILLIAM HOWITT, 2 vols. fcp. 8vo. with 46 Illustrations on Wood by G. F. Sargent, 15s. cloth.

"In every respect equal to any of those highly popular works with which the author has already favoured the public. It is a tale of powerful and thrilling interest, told in that peculiar style, so remarkable for its combined grace and nervousness, for which Mr. Howitt has hitherto been so eminently distinguished. Jack of the Mill, or, as he afterwards became, Lord Othmill, is a most wonderful character; he accomplishes feats of ingenuity and achieves prodigies of valour that are quite beyond the reach of ordinary mortals. No difficulties are too great for him to encounter. It matters not whether he has fallen in with gipsies, or whether he is contending with giants, or whether he is fighting against robbers-in all cases he comes off equally victorious. It is, in short, just such a book as one would like to take up of a cold winter's evening, while the rain is falling, and the wind whistling without. The inimitable and multifarious accomplishments of Jack will very soon arrest the reader's attention, and induce him to follow him on, page after page, through his hairbreadth 'scapes' and perilous adventures, until at length he returns home Lord Othmill, Baron Waldeck, and Knight of Kitticottie."-SUNDAY TIMES.

Translated from the Third German Edition, by WILLIAM HOWITT, Author of "The Rural and Social Life of Germany," &c. &c. Fcp. 8vo. with Portrait of the Tailor, 68. cloth.

"He has traversed Germany, Poland, Hungary, and Wallachia several times; gazed with professional delight on the varied costumes in Constantinople and Alexandria; ascended the Nile; climbed the Pyramids; dodged the Bedouins; kneeled as a pilgrim in the Holy City; stood in adoration on Mount Zion; cut a walking-stick on Mount Tabor; washed in the lake of Gennesareth; slept by the side of the Dead Sea; braved the robbers of blest Arcady;' narrowly escaped being married at Malta by damsels who are worse than Sam Weller's widows; and been stoned for his impertinent curiosity in attempting to enter Solomon's Mosque at Jerusalem.

The introductory memoir is distinguished by good feeling and good taste, and is chargeable only with the uncommon fault of being too short."-MORNING CHRONICLE.
