'THE TIMES' ON 'THE DAY OF REST.'
"This certainly is a most excellent magazine, and one which affords reading of such worth and variety that it is clearly entitled to be mentioned before any of its competitors. Its list of contributors includes the ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY, DR. VAUGHAN, THOMAS BINNEY, JEAN INGELOW, DORA GREENWELL, A. K. H. B., GEORGE MACDONALD, and several other well-known authors. It is full of good engravings, and its publishers deserve to be congratulated on the liberality and enterprise which have placed their new magazine in the very front during the first year of its existence."-Times, Dec. 26th, 1873.
**This most important Work will be Continued throughout the Year, and Completed in December.

AIMÉ HUMBERT, Envoy Extraordinary of the Swiss Confederation. From the French, by Mrs. CASHEL HOEY, and Edited by W. H. BATES, Assistant-Secretary to the Royal Geographical Society. In royal 4to. handsomely bound in cloth, with 207 Illustrations from Drawings by Italian and French Artists, and Sketches from Photographs, 428.
"Full of admirable illustrations. You can scarcely turn a page without coming upon one or two, and they are all drawings of high artistic merit. The sketches are manifestly taken from the life. You see the Japanese in the streets and in the country, worshipping in the temple, and figuring as judge or criminal in the Courts of Justice. Peasant, noble, priest, lady, soldier, doctor, as you look through the pages you unroll a complete panorama of Japanese life."-Guardian.
The LIFE and WORK of THORVALDSEN. From the French, by Mrs CASHEL HOEY. imperial 8vo. with numerous Illustrations, 258. "Thorvaldsen,' by Eugène Plon, translated by Mrs. Cashel Hoey, is worthy of the illustrious artist of whose life and works it treats. The author has keen sympathy with, and admiration for, the character of Thorvaldsen, and, in interpreting his works, displays ample knowledge and critical and artistic culture. The text is illustrated by two exquisite copper-plate engravings-Thorvaldsen's Venus and Mercury, and a large number of woodcuts."-Globe.
A very handsome volume."-Daily News.
"It would be difficult to produce a better book of its kind than M. Plon's Thorvaldsen,' translated-and very brightly translated-by Mrs. Cashel Hoey. The life of the great Scandinavian sculptor was essentially worthy of being put on record, and M. Plon has proved in this volume how well he was fitted for a task from which many men might shrink."-Standard.
The LIFE of GREGORY the SEVENTH. By M. VILLEMAIN, of the French Academy. Translated by JAMES BABER BROCKLEY. In 2 vols. 8vo. 268. M. Villemain's Life of Gregory the Seventh' occupied the learned author's thoughts and leisure during many years of his life, and was left complete at his death. During the disastrous days of the first siege of Paris, the MS. was removed, for safe keeping, to Angers. At the Capitulation of Paris it was brought back to the capital, and housed in the Rue de Lille, where it narrowly escaped the flames kindled by the Commune, the next house being burnt to the ground.
A SALON in the LAST DAYS of the EMPIRE, and other Sketches. By GRACE RAMSEY, Author of A Woman's Trials,' &c. Crown 8vo. 108. 6d.
WORD-SKETCHES in the SWEET SOUTH. By MARY CATHERINE JACKSON. In 1 vol. 8vo. 108. 6d.
"For those who possess artistic appreciation, this book of Miss Jackson's will prove most agreeable reading. Miss Jackson possesses a happy knack of word-sketching, quite novel and refreshing in these days, when guide-books are used so much for padding impressions." Athenæum.
JACKSON'S DIARIES
and LETTERS, from the PEACE of AMIENS to the BATTLE of TALAVERA. Edited by Lady JACKSON. 2 vols. 8vo. 308.
"Sir George Jackson drew pen-and-ink sketches of the royal and illustrious personages with whom he was mixed up; he narrated the progress of negotiations; he repeated the current anecdotes; he described the passing manners, morals, and fashions; he fixed the Cynthias of the minute; and future historians will turn to him, as we now turn to Pepys, for the traits and touches which constitute the charm of history."-Quarterly Review, April, 1872.
"Encore un de ces récits détaillés de nos guerres en Allemagne particulièrement de la campagne de 1806, que l'attention publique recherche avec une curiosité renouvelée, et qui abondent en contrastes, en sujets de comparaisons et d'enseignemens. Sir George et son frère aîné sont deux diplomates anglais militans qui, dans une série de lettres à leur mère ou entre eux racontent jour par jour la période agitée de 1801 à 1809. Sir George, par mission spéciale, reste en Prusse après Iéna, il assiste au bombardement de Copenhague en 1807; sa correspondance se termine par le récit des guerres d'Espagne. D'intéressans épisodes, agréablement décrits avec des couleurs nouvelles ont fait beaucoup remarquer ces volumes."
From the Times, December 19. "These new Tales from the Norse are as pleasant and easy reading, when we have said so much, we do not know that we can add anything more in recommendation of the book to our Christmas readers, except that it is enriched by a beautiful frontispiece by George Howard."
