ANDREW'S DINNER." + +By the MARQUIS OF DUFFERIN AND AVA. + +_8vo. 9s._ + +"We earnestly commend the perusal of these speeches to the English +reader. They are the best possible antidote for the rashness, ignorance, +and folly which are the too common characteristics of amateur criticism +of Indian politics. They are, moreover, agreeable reading; for Lord +Dufferin, serious and well considered as are his observations, is never +dull, and, whenever occasion permits, breaks away into a +light-heartedness that reminds us that he is a true Irishman, and that +the Sheridan blood flows in his veins. His touch is light; his spirits +are gay; his fancy plays at ease. Whenever, for a moment, the senatorial +purple is thrown aside, we perceive the courteous, kindly gentleman, +sincerely pleased with the world in which he has played so distinguished +a part, and the men and women whom his genial disposition and charming +manners have bound to himself in the firm allegiance of personal +affection. He is proud of his country, of his class, of his past good +fortune, and--as he takes every opportunity of announcing--of his +wife."--_Saturday Review_. + +"In this charming collection there are not many speeches which compare +in importance and oratorical elevation with the brilliant orations and +despatches of Lord Dufferin's Canadian administration; but we have a +volume abounding in light on Indian history and rich in hereditary +refinement of diction and vivacity of perception.... The actual +condition of the Indian Empire at the time Lord Dufferin became Viceroy, +and the healing influence his personality exercised upon the +inflammation produced by many attempts to exploit India for party +purposes, constitute some of Lord Dufferin's strongest claims to +recognition among the great men who have made the English name renowned +in the Indian world."--_Observer_. + + * * * * * + +_ADVENTURES IN THE GREAT FOREST OF EQUATORIAL AFRICA_, + +AND THE COUNTRY OF THE DWARFS. + +By PAUL DU CHAILLU, +Author of "The Viking Age" and "Land of the Midnight Sun." + +_An Abridged And Popular Edition.

With Portrait & Map. 2 Vols. Crown 8vo. 24s._ + +"All who understand and sympathise with Indian life will hasten to read +these two pleasant volumes. The journal is a running commentary on the +multitudinous events which must crowd into such years as she passed in +India, and is none the less pleasant for its simplicity and +unpretentiousness. Perhaps the visit which Lady Dufferin paid to Burmah +three years ago will attract as much attention as any other part of her +travels."--_Daily Telegraph_. + + * * * * * + +_A SOUTHERN PLANTER._ + +By SUSAN DABNEY SMEDES. + +_Crown 8vo. 7s. 6d._ + +"The book is eminently worthy of the great attention it has received. It +puts the case of the Southern planters in a very rational and most +interesting light. It may be described as the very antipodes to 'Uncle +Tom's Cabin.' The picture of the rich, affluent patriarchal life, with +woodlands, pastures and countless flocks, the master exercising paternal +care over the slaves, and the planter's wife, working harder for her +slaves than any slave could work, is extremely interesting and +attractive. Then we have some striking pictures of the war between +Federals and Confederates, and of the tremendous results. But the main +charm of the book is the character of Thomas Dabney himself, who might, +as a reality, be compared with some famous characters in fiction, with +the Doctor Primrose of Goldsmith, or the Père Madelon of Victor Hugo.... +Mr. Gladstone has done well in drawing attention to his character and +his story."--_Literary Churchman_. + + * * * * * + +_FOUR YEARS' TRAVELS IN +AUSTRALIA._ + +AND CAMP LIFE WITH THE ABORIGINES OF QUEENSLAND. + +By CARL LUMHOLTZ, M.A., + +Member of the Royal Society of Science of Norway. + + +_With Maps, Coloured Plates and 120 Illustrations. Medium 8vo. 24s._ + +"Mr. Lumholtz has a very pleasant and modest style of narrative, so that +the whole book is as agreeable as it is instructive; but the portion +most attractive from its novelty is that which details his proceeding +when, for nearly a year, he lived alone among 'a race of people whose +culture--if, indeed, they can be said to have any culture whatever--must +be characterised as the lowest to be found among the whole genus _homo +sapiens_.' The volume is one of the most complete of its kind in all +respects, and a worthy record of the steadfast enterprise of a hardy +Norseman in the Scientific Age. It should be specially remarked that he +effaces himself more than most travellers; yet we can infer from the +style and fine temper of his narrative that he belongs to the higher +class of scientific explorers."--_Spectator_. + + * * * * * + +_DRAMATIC OPINIONS_. + +By MRS.

This has been effected by securing +the service of an artist who has visited the countries which Darwin +describes._ + +"This is an edition de luxe of the first work written by our great +naturalist. Anybody who has read it is not likely to have forgotten it. +It is a kind of natural history 'Robinson Crusoe.' It was during that +famous voyage that Darwin made the observations and laid the foundation +for his famous theory of Natural Selection. The present edition is by +far the best and most attractive hitherto published. The illustrations +are artistic in the highest degree, as everybody will understand when he +knows they are by the artist of Lady Brassey's 'Sunbeam.' Most of them +are from sketches made on the spot by Mr. Pritchett, with Darwin's book +by his side."--_Science Gossip_. + + * * * * * + +_THE BATTLE ABBEY ROLL_ + +WITH SOME ACCOUNT OF THE NORMAN LINEAGES. + +By the DUCHESS OF CLEVELAND. + +_3 Vols. Small 4 to. 48s._ + +"These handsome volumes are a solid monument to the industry and +learning of the Author. On the whole the book is very much above the +average of Antiquarian productions. The accounts of the leading families +are given with accuracy and generally in an interesting manner. The +three volumes are evidently a labour of love, and reflect no little +credit on the industry, the knowledge and the capacity of their +Author."--_Guardian, May_, 1890. + + * * * * * + +_THE VIKING AGE_. + +THE EARLY HISTORY, MANNERS, AND CUSTOMS OF THE ANCESTORS OF THE +ENGLISH-SPEAKING NATIONS. + +ILLUSTRATED FROM THE ANTIQUITIES DISCOVERED IN MOUNDS, CAIRNS, AND BOGS, +AS WELL, AS FROM THE ANCIENT SAGAS AND EDDAS. + +By PAUL B.

COOLEY. + +Chairman of the Inter-State Commerce Commission. +_With Maps, Charts, and 200 Illustrations. (480 pp.) Large 8vo. 31s. +6d._ + +"There is far more of interest and information in the book than we have +been able to allude to; and it is perhaps not entirely unsatisfactory to +the English reader to find, on the authority of the Americans +themselves, that with all their energy and inventiveness, we are +obviously still ahead of them in the art of rendering railway travelling +at once speedy and safe, and in general principles and details. American +engineers are behind no others of this epoch in talent and resource, but +American railway working seems not yet to have surmounted the drawbacks +arising from an inherently loose system of construction and working, +fixed upon it at the outset by the desire for economy and by the lack of +that feeling of responsibility for public safety which seems much more +developed in the English character in connexion with public works of +this kind. England has the credit of having invented the railway system, +with all its vast consequences to the world, and we may be allowed as a +nation to feel some pardonable pride in the assurance that in its +working and management we are still in front of all other +nations."--_The Builder_. + + * * * * * + +_THE RAILWAYS OF ENGLAND_. + +By W.M.

Some such summary as Mr. Acworth gives is +requisite to convey a real and lasting impression of the immensity of +the organization and its daily effect upon the present conditions of +life."--_Birmingham Daily Gazette_. + + +_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_. + +_THE RAILWAYS OF SCOTLAND_. + +THEIR PRESENT POSITION, WITH A GLANCE AT THEIR PAST, AND A FORECAST OF +THEIR FUTURE. + +_With a Map of the Scottish Railway System. Crown 8vo. 5s._ + +"Mr. Acworth has lost no time in following up his interesting book on +English railways with a very readable companion volume. This is a +concise review of the past history of Scottish railway enterprise, and a +suggestive survey of the present outlook, with its notable activity of +competition and exploitation. From both aspects Mr. Acworth's book, with +its admirable map of existing lines and lines in progress, is eminently +satisfactory. Burning questions of amalgamation or of competitive and +retaliatory policies are treated with discretion. They are discussed, as +was inevitable, but discussed within sober and proper +bounds."--_Saturday Review_. + + * * * * * + +_THE ENGLISH POOR_. + +A SKETCH OF THEIR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC HISTORY. + +By THOMAS MACKAY. + +_Crown 8vo. 7s. 6d._ + +"To any one, be he gentle or simple, who wishes to understand how deep +are the problems opening before the man who would administer the poor +law wisely and beneficently, we can honestly commend this book of Mr. +Mackay's. For ourselves, we have derived much pleasure and not a little +instruction from its perusal."--_St. James's Gazette_. + + * * * * * + +_A HANDBOOK TO THE DEATH DUTIES_ + +By SYDNEY BUXTON, M.P., AND +GEORGE STAPYLTON BARNES, Barrister-at-Law. + +_Post 8vo. 3s. 6d._ + + * * * * * + +_A NATURALIST IN NORTH CELEBES;_ + +A NARRATIVE OF TRAVELS IN MINAHASSA, THE SANGIR AND TALAUT ISLANDS, + +WITH NOTICES OF THE FAUNA, FLORA, AND ETHNOLOGY OF THE DISTRICTS +VISITED. + +By SYDNEY J. HICKSON, +M.A. (Cantab.), D.Sc. (Lond.), F.Z.S., Fellow of Downing College, Camb. + +_With 2 Maps and 36 Illustrations. 8vo. 16s._ + +"Dr. Hickson ranks as the naturalist-historian of Malay Archipelago, and +is an undoubted authority on corals and the general fauna of tropical +seas. But he is more than a naturalist--he is an ethnologist and a +folklorist of high value. This work is a valuable, conscientious, and +pleasantly written addition to the libraries of all who, with 'Childe +Harold,' 'converse with Nature's charms, and view her shores unrolled.' +The maps are of especial value."--_Daily Telegraph_. + + * * * * * + +_THE LAND OF MANFRED_. + +RAMBLES IN APULIA AND OTHER REMOTE PARTS OF SOUTHERN ITALY, +WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THEIR HISTORICAL ASSOCIATIONS. + +By JANET ROSS. + +Author of "Three Generations of Englishwomen." + +_With Map and Illustrations. Crown 8vo. 10s. 6d._ + +"A charming little volume. Many of the towns along the coast were +visited by Mrs. Ross, and the leading events connected with their +history are very graphically described. These pages of Mrs. Ross's will +undoubtedly tempt many of her compatriots to visit this fair unknown +land, to its and the traveller's benefit."--_Nature_. + + * * * * * + +_THE PHYSIOLOGY OF INDUSTRY;_ + +BEING AN EXPOSURE OF CERTAIN FALLACIES IN EXISTING THEORIES OF +ECONOMICS. + +By A.F. MUMMERY and J.A. HOBSON. + +_Crown 8vo. 6s._ + +"This is one of the most remarkable contributions to the economic +controversy lately seen. The authors set themselves out as antagonistic +to most of the received theories, and especially to controvert Mill's +position that 'saving enriches, and spending impoverishes the community +along with the individual.' The argument is full of acute observation, +and the industrial process, as we may call it, is exposed to a careful +scientific dissection.... The volume is eminently readable and +valuable."--_North British Economist_. + + * * * * * + +_THE GREAT SILVER RIVER,_ +AND THE ARGENTINE STATES, AS A FIELD FOR BRITISH SETTLERS. + +NOTES OF A RESIDENCE IN BUENOS AYRES. + +By Sir HORACE RUMBOLD, Bart., K.C.M.G. + +_2nd Edition, with a Chapter on the Commercial Resources of the Country. +Illustrations.

The enumeration of mere +details will be avoided, except in so far as they illustrate the working +of general laws, and the development of principles; while the historical +evolution, both of the literary and scientific subjects, will be kept in +view, as well as their philosophical significance. The class for whose +use the Manuals are especially designed are those whose education has +been hitherto somewhat miscellaneous or fragmentary, and who are +desirous of pursuing systematic study in Literature, History, Science, +and Art. + +The remarkable success which has attended University Extension in +England and Scotland has been partly due to the combination of +scientific treatment with popularity, and the union of simplicity with +thoroughness. The University Extension movement, however, can only reach +those resident in the larger centres of population, while all over the +country there are thoughtful persons who desire the same kind of +teaching; and it is for them, as well as for the Extension Lecture +Students, that this Series is designed. Its aim will be to supply to the +public and to the general reader, the same kind of teaching as is given +in the Lectures, to reflect the spirit which has characterised the +movement, and to combine as the Lectures have done, the discussion of +principles as well as of facts, and of methods along with results. + +The Manuals will be issued simultaneously in England and America. +Volumes dealing with separate sections of Literature, Science, +Philosophy, History, and Art have already been assigned to +representative literary men, to University Professors, or to Extension +Lectures connected with Oxford, Cambridge, London, and the Universities +of Scotland and Ireland. + + +UNIVERSITY EXTENSION MANUALS. + + +_The Series will include the following Works:--_ + +THE DAILY LIFE OF THE GREEKS AND ROMANS.
