As through the pleasant places of literature as through a garden , not for-£ etting to draw— . 6 ° .... apis Matmse More modoquethe honey of sweet and holy thought from every flower . . ¦ Mr Murray has published a tftrd and cheaper edition of a really valuable ' and fascinating book , Pen-and-ink Sketches in ¦ India , by General Mundy , Governor of Jersey , and author of < Our Antipodes . ' -It is gracefully and profusely illustrated , and lights up with picturesque , careful and pleasant descriptions the whole scene of the campaign in Ind . a Where Sir Colin Campbell is now fighting General Mundy went sporting ; and it is interesting to glance through his accounts of the cities , plains , fortresses , and rivers on the route . ¦ , i _ «¦ T n- c «> A very important volume has been produced by Mr . James Biggs of 53 , Parliament-street , who is at once publisher and editor . It is a Collection of Public Statutes Relating to the General Law of England Passed in the Reign of Queen Victoria , and contains the legislation of 1857 , with an index , table , and register . The utility of such a work is obvious . It appears to have been very diligently compiled . Messrs . Smith and Elder have published this week Select Odes of -Horace in English Lyrics : a Specimen of a New Translation of the Poet . By J . T . Black F . R . S . Edited by Gilbert Malcolm Sproat . —The translator ' s attempt has been to combine an almost literal fidelity of rendering with the spirit of the original . His verse flows not unpleasmgly , and he has ventured to contrast it with that of the Roman in parallel pages .
The Gloaming of Li fe is the title of a memoir of James Stirling by the Rev Alexander Wallace ^ reprinted from our Glasgow contemporary , the . Com monwealth , and published by the Glasgow Scottish Temperance League . We must satisfy ourselves until next week with recording the appearance of the following pamphlets : — Memorandum of Improvements Suggested in the Medical Service of the Army with a Description and Drawings of a New Plan of Equipment for the Medica < Staff Corps . By George Bedford . ( Churchill . ) A New System of Drill in Times of Emerge 7 icy . By Lieutenant Hartley . ( Owers . ) Cause and Effect : the Rebellion in India .

( Lepage . ) Cantillon ' s Legacy : When Was It Paid , and Who Paid It ? containing Mr . Stirling ' s speech and an array of documen tary evidence , published by J . W . Parker * and Son . Mr .

w London , Friday Evening , February 19 . The upward tendency of Consols has been fully maintained throughout the week . Yesterday they oponed at 974 4 for account , and closed after business hours at 97 7-16 9-16 , the rise chiefly owing to an expectation that the interest of the March Exchequer Bills would be reduced fro m 2 Jd . to ljd ., as is deemed very probable . Funds opened this morning at the closing price of yesterday very firmly , closing , however , upon a slight reaction at 97 f 4 for tho account . . ... The railway market quiet but very firm , tho principal improvements being in Midlands , Borwicks , Dovers , Sheffield , and , above all , Caledonians .
