"It is an admirable addition to our Lexicography, supplying a great desideratum, as exhibiting the biography of each word its birth, parentage and education, the changes that have befallen it, the company it has kept, and the connexions it has formed by rich series of quotations, all in chronological order. This is such a Dictionary as perhaps no other language could ever boast."— Quarterly Review. "A work indispensable to every one who is curious in his mother tongue, and without which no library can be considered complete."— Spectator. "In most cases Richardson's Dictionary, the only one from which I can promise you effectual help, for it is the only English one, in which Etymology assumes the dignity of a Science, will put you in the right pusition for judging why the word has been suggested to you."-Trench on the Study of Words. 8vo. cloth, price 158, A Smaller Edition, with all the EXPLANATIONS and ETYMOLOGIES, but without the Quotations.

"Geology in the Garden' is a pleasing idea; it suggests at once the simple plan and story of the book, but we scarcely thought when we opened it, the garden would have given so wide a range- so much scope of subject available for so much instruction, as Mr. Eley has made it convey. We have derived both pleasure and instruction from Mr. Eley's book, and there are but few which it has fallen to our lot to read, that we could recommend to our readers so sincerely, or with so much pleasure."-The Geologist.
