SANCTITY OF THE GRAVE COMBINED WITH ECONOMY OF CHARGE . THE LOND ON" NECROPOLIS , or "WOKINQ CEMETERY , is situated within an easy distance from town , by South-Western Railway , starting from the Company ' s private station in "Westminster JBriageroad . This Cemetery is of a dry sandstone formation , and so extensive that over-crowding or desecration of the dead by after removal is impossible in it- Indeed it is expressly stipulated by the act under which this Cemetery was established that a separate grave should be provided for each interment , which should not afterwards be reopened except at the expressed desire of the friends of the deceased , for the purpose of depositing the remains of another member of the family . The London Necropolis Company undertake the entire - arrangements connected with the interment of the dead at less than half the charges ordinarily incurred . They offer seven distinct scales of charges from which to select , four of which varying from 17 ? . 4 s . to 71 . 10 s ., including coffin , furniture . Ac ,, and the performance of the funeral from the house to the station , and thence to the Cemetery ; tfce other three varying from 81 . 15 s . to 21 . 5 s ., and including coffin and all undertaking expenses , and dispensing only with the funeral cortege from the house to the station .

' " The book strikes us as being most useful as a handbook for teachers . It is just the sort of help for a tutor to have lying bv him as a guide to his lecture . The main facts he will find marshalled iti strict chronological order , and he will be assisted by references to the statute-book and the old chroniclers . Tn © 'Annals' will , in short , supply the dry bones of an historical lecture , which each teacher must clothe for himself with life and spirit . But the work will also be highly useful to students-, especially for the purpose of refreshing the memory . and . getting details into order , after the perusal of more regular narratives . We trust to see it extensively- employed in tho Universities . At Oxford it may be especially serviceable . A reliable guide to the Original authorities , and one which pives its proper prominence to the early history , may * if it falls into the hands of either students or teachers , dp something to dispel the illusion that English history can' bo profit ably studied by beginning at the momentar y overthrow of . English nationality , and that , after all the labours of Turner , Li-ngard . iPalgrave , Kenible .

Just published , fcap . Svo , cloth , price 5 s .. THE SCHOLAR AND THE TROOPER ; OR OXFORD DUUIXG TUB GREAT REBELLION . By tho Rev . \ V . E . IIEYG ATE , MA . " Mr . Heygate has managed these discussions with much skill , and the chapters in which they occur will certainly not , as he seems to apprehend , be condemned as dull ... . . . Within those three years the star of the king rose high , and set again for ever . Mr . Hevgatc has filled his canvas with . ¦ figures full of lire and individual character , and has sketched them with discriminating sympathy . We may congratulate 3 Tr . Heyjrate upon - having repaired the neglect of his constitutional' privilege * -as an undergraduate . There is abundant evidence that he has not only collected the historical materials of his narrative with conscientious perseverance , but has surveyed tho actual scenes of contest with a learned eye . The result is a vivid and truthful picture , in which we lose sight , of the labour in our admiration of the art . . . . There is nothing in the spirit or the conduct of the story which is not worthy of cordial acceptance ; and it lias passages which no vulgar pen could havo written , and . which few will read unmoved . "— 'Siztfim / ay Review , Sept . l \ IS . jS" This is decidedlv the best book of its kind which ^ ye have yet had from the p « n of Mr . Ileygato . It exhibits in undiminished force the lively interest its author takes in the historical period to which it relates We commend the book as one which Churchmen may well introduce intatheir homes riiut their parish libraries . It is not every book on the Groat Rebellion that so . much can be said of . " — Guardian , Oct . 13 , 1 S 5 S . JT . H . and Jas . PA-KKElt , Oxford , aud 377 , Strand . London .
