      Amongst the novelties which Messrs . Cassell & Co . are preparing to add to their already

      comprehensive list of Letts ' s Diaries , two thin diaries in wallets call for special attention . They are both printed on bank paper , with two days to a

      page , with convenient pockets for cards , stamps , < fcc ., No . 19 being bound in satin , in best calf letter-case , and No . 61 in leather , in best morocco

      wallet . They are handsome in appearance and considerably less bulky than most pocket diaries . The cheap Pocket DiariesNos . 1721 and 23

      are now produced with calf , paper covers , , , being , a capital imitation of real calf and a decided improvement on the covers formerly used . A

      complete Australian customs tariff will form a useful addition to the Rough and Commercial series . The well-known Waistcoat Pocket Diary

      in Russia and French morocco cases will in future be sold in boxes for showing on the counterthirteen in each box . The * Alexandra' Diary and

      Pocket Book , size 4 by 3 inches , is elegant and very serviceable . It is printed on metallic paper , with three days to a page , bound in satin and

      inclosed in a French morocco wallet . The wallet is strongly made , with the view of holding the diary for several years . The remaining diaries

      in Messrs . Cassell's list are adapted to meet a great variety of requirements . Particular attention is paid to the letterpress , whilst the binding

      is executed in a substantial and durable manner to stand the wear and tear of everyday use . Yule Tide for 1890 is now in active

      preparation . The enlargement of this annual last year caused such a demand for it that it was out of print at an early date . Its literary and artistic

      attractions will this year bo of exceptional merit . The magnificent ^ j work which Messrs . Cassell

      & Co . produce under the title of * Royal Academy Pictures' is no doubt as popular in the Colonies and abroad as it is in England . We learn that , ¦*
