The Englishman s Political Legacy . The writer is one of those Reformers who prunes with a hatchet . He sees corruption on all sides , and lays about him vigorously in eveTy direction , not sparing his tongue meanwhile . Truly , if he have overdone it a little , there was strong temptation . We should rather have taken him for the executor of a will , than the bequeather of a legacy .

The Squib Annual , 1836 . Humorous verse , with a strong infusion of caustic satire , forms the staple of this amusing publication . The illustrations are by Seymour , a man who has neither superiors nor rivals in his art , that we know of , with the exception of H . B . and George Crurkshank . The vision of Captain Ross at the North Pole shows ( in the figure of the Frost Fiend ) how the grotesque may ascend into poetical sublimity .

Schlegel ' s Philosophy of History . Translated from the German ; with a Memoir of the Author . By J . B . Robertson , Esq . 2 vols . 8 vo . In these lectures there are , as every one acquainted with the writings and reputation of Frederick Schlegel would anticipate , many passages rich in profound and beautiful thought , and in pure and philanthropic feeling . Many , however , will not be prepared for the strength and
extent of influence which the Catholic Theology exercised over the writer ' s mind . His notions of human nature , and ita degraded condition , appear to us to have put him wrong at the very outset ; to have invalidated the principles on which he bases his Philosophy of History , and perverted eoine of his views of its facts : yet these great deductions leave much which will be read with interest and instruction .
The work is rather somehow done into English than translated The mechanism of the sentences is frequently most clumsy , compli cated , and barbarous .
