[blocks in formation]

Upwards of 600 pages, including Copious Indices.

TUNES FOR THE FAMILY AND

CONGREGATION.

Selected by S. D. MAJOR.

The Proprietors beg to call especial attention to this publication, which they feel sure, will require merely to be known to be widely and deservedly appreciated. It contains 770 distinct Tunes, embracing arrangements suitable to the varied requisites of all the more recently published Hymn Books.

This selection not only includes all the Standard Tunes from English, German, and other sources; but also some of the more deservedly favourite English Tunes of the eighteenth century, the best compositions from the large collections published of late years in America, the more striking of the Welsh Congregational Tunes, most of the popular English Tunes of the present day, and some Tunes of very considerable merit not before published.

The only Illustrated History of our own Time.

PUNCH

PUNCH.

THE WORLD

' is a historian of the time in which he lives. Future generations may look to these volumes and tell to a nicety what the men and women of the present day are like, can recover the evanescent fashions, can learn the fashionable foibles, can tell how the great men of their time appeared to their humorous contemporaries, can hit to a certainty the leading characteristics as well of things as of men; for the success of the 'Punch' pictures and paragraphs is half stance that there is always an small, of truth in the most outpeculiar faculty of caricature, with pencil, has always disas these volumes testify. Of well; that was if people genevast treasure of who place them storing away for them with even that Punch' with the passing course, some, and allusions need fail to recondite of every volume of go through the

due to the circumelement, large or rageous of them. This with pen as well as tinguished Punch,' course they have sold to be expected. But rally knew what a wit and humour those in their libraries are future days, they would buy more avidity. It cannot be said has lost very much of its interest time; for though there are, of there are very few of his jokes which an ordinary well-read man understand; and to the more them the explanation given with the re-issue supplies the key. To volumes categorically would be equal to a review of the political, social, fashionable, and literary history of the time through which Punch' has lived. For such a task we have neither space nor inclination. Every reader must make his review for himself, and in going through these volumes he will find that they are pregnant with matter which cannot fail to suggest to the thoughtful much that is worth remembering, and that is going nigh to be forgotten, of the events of the last twenty years. The price at which the re-issue is made is low enough to enable any moderately well-to-do reader to place them on a handy shelf in his collection of books."-Standard.

THE HANDY-VOLUME

THIS

SHAKSPEARE.

HIS choice Miniature Edition of "Shakspeare" is in 13 Volumes, 32mo size, and contains the whole of the Plays, the Poems, and a Glossary. The volumes are printed on a slightly toned paper of fine quality, with a new, clear, and elegant type, on a page free from Notes -and the Text has been arranged from a close comparison of the most trustworthy editions. Nothing could be prettier than this diamond edition. The paper is toned, the type is exquisitely beautiful, the text is Shakspeare, pur et simple. It is, besides all these, a very marvel of cheapness, as the result of a happy thought most charmingly realised.
