TROLLOPE.-THE LAURRINGTONS;

Or, Superior People. By Mrs. TROLLOPE, Author of "Widow Barnaby," &c. 3 vols. post 8vo. 31s. 6d. boards.

"Mrs. Trollope gains upon public opinion, as a novel writer, by every successive production of her prolific pen. 'The Laurringtons, her last new novel, is vastly superior to Widow Barnaby,' on which we conclude, from its being associated with her name in the title-page, she founds her pretensions to public regard. The plot is simple; the characters comparatively few, and their positions, sayings, and doings, perfectly in keeping. We predict that the work will be a favourite with the novel-reading portion of the public."-GLOBE.

It forms an indispensable work of reference to men of science and manufacturers, for practical purposes, and to every reader who is incidentally interested in any of the numerous subjects of which it treats.”—ATLAS.

"This work, which is printed in tint lithography, is one of the most beautiful of its kind which we remember to have seen. The preliminary observations, as well as the general instructions, are written in an intelligible, practical manner, which conveys the substance of many a treatise of greater pretensions in few words. Many of the designs are of unusual merit. We would instance the marine views, especially that which includes the figures of two fishermen, and the view of a rustic hut, near which passes a road traversed by a group of travellers. We cordially recommend this excellent drawing-book to all persons desirous of learning the rudiments of the fine arts."-ATLAS.

To give additional interest to the work, it has been printed and bound in the style of the period to which it refers. Smail 4to. 18s. boards; or in morocco, by Hayday, £2. 2s.

"This curious Diary embraces thirteen years of the most important portion of the civil war under Charles I.; and it is interesting to see the views of that deplorable conflict brought home to the hearths and bosoms of domestic life, by interspersing the narrative of public events with pictures of their evil consequences on every class of society. In this consists a true charm; for the fine moral and religious tone, the love of nature, the homely conduct of family affairs, the condition of various ranks, the Isaac-Walton-like simplicity of feeling, are here all finely thrown together to make a general and genuine panoraina of that troubled age. We leave the later dangers of Lord Willoughby, when so nearly sacrificed by those whose cause he espoused, till he found the king's murder resolved upon, to furnish much more agreeable reading to those who may look from our extracts to find this pleasant volume as entertaining as we have done."-LITERARY GAZETTE.
