"The library of the Abbé Don Nicola Pacifico, a zealous botanist of Naples, possesses four volumes of the botanical plates of Cupani, an unpublished work of the most extreme scarcity. They are in the style of Boccone's figures, bat better, of which this a copy of the first volume lately sent to Dr. Smith. See Smith's Travels on the Continent, vol. ii, p. 290.”—MS. Note. CURTIS'S (W.) FLORA LONDINENSIS, revised and

improved by George Graves, extended and continued by Sir W. Jackson Hooker; comprising the History of Plants indigenous to Great Britain, their Uses, Economy, and various interesting Particulars, with Alphabetical, Linnæan, and other Indexes; the Drawings made by Sydenham Edwards and Lindley, 5 vols. roy. folio, (or 109 parts) containing 647 plates, exhibiting the full natural size of each Plant, with magnified Dissections of the parts of Fructification, &c. all beautifully coloured, (pub. at £87. 4s in parts) elegantly hf. bd. mor. top edges gilt, £30. 1838

the same, 5 vols. elegantly bound in green morocco, gilt edges, £36.

Very few copies now remain for sale, and as the present reduced price scarcely repays the cost of colouring, there is no probability that the work will ever be reprinted.

"This is to the present hour, the only extensive work on the Indigenous Botany of this country, which gives well coloured representations of the plants in THEIR

FULL NATURAL SIZE.

"The singular merit of this splendid and valuable publication is too conspicuous to need our eulogium. The specimens from which the Figures are drawn, are uniformly well chosen, and remarkable for their characteristic significance; the colours are vivid and expressive, and the dissections of the Flowers are admirably executed, and will prove more didactic than the lectures of any but very teachers.

"All the parts of the plant are so well described,

the characteristic difference of every species so accurately pointed out, and the minuter parts so fully displayed in numerous and magnified dissections, that no System of Botany can be invented which will not be aided by them; and no lapse of time can occur, when such truth of nature will not be equally valuable.

"The Editor does not confine himself to Botany, but leads the reader into some little acquaintance with the study of the sister science, Entomology, marking, as he speaks of each Plant, the Insects which are usually found to feed upon it.-And where any opening affords an opportunity, the work has its share of elegance and classical treatment of the subject, see Viola odorata, where an illustration of Shakspeare occurs; also Viola tricolor, Bellis perennis, and many other instances.

"This important work is now brought to a close, and may justly boast of UNRIVALLED EXCELLENCE, UNDIMINISHED SPLENDOUR, AND UNABATED ACCURACY."

This, though a complete work in itself, forms AN ALMOST INDISPENSABLE SUPPLEMENT TO THE THIRTYSIX VOLUMES OF SOWERBY'S ENGLISH BOTANY, WHICH DO NOT COMPREHEND CRYPTOGAMEOUS PLANTS. It is one of the most scientific and best executed works on Indigenous Botany ever produced in this country.

"A truly admirable work, which may be honestly designated as so excellent, that nothing can be found to compete with it in the whole range of Indigenous Botany; whether we consider the importance of its critical discussions, the accuracy of the drawings, the minuteness of the analyses, or the unusual care which is evident in the publishing department. After expressing this opinion, we are sure the work will need no further recommendation with the public."
