This Flora of Ceylon is issued under the authority and with the assistance of the Government of the Colony, and has been written with special reference to local use; one principal object being to enable

observers here to ascertain readily the name of any tree, shrub, or herb they may meet with growing wild in the country. For this purpose copious analytic keys and full descriptions are given, as well as the Sinhalese and Tamil names, the distribution of each species through the island, its period of flowering, and varied information as to its history, properties, and uses. An endeavour has also been made, by references and quotations, to embody all previously published information on the Botany of Ceylon, so that the book will form a comprehensive work of reference for everything relating to the plants of the colony.

TARVER (J. C.), late French Master Eton College.

The

Royal Phraseological, French-English and English-French Dictionary. 2 vols. Royal 8vo, cloth boards, price £1 5s. each. "Most readily do we acknowledge the flood of light which has been thrown on French phrases by Mr. Tarver . . . . His work is really a valuable addition to our Dictionary shelf-the most important shelf in every man's library. The nice skill with which he has compared and contrasted the phrases of the two most influential of modern tongues can hardly be over-praised. Such a book might well deserve a distinct notice; but we are happy to take this opportunity, meantime, of saying that one of the volumes has now been in constant use with us for five years; and we should be at a loss to name another recent one of its class which we have found more useful. The idea was happy, and the execution has been most laudably careful. We have been infinitely obliged to it in reading the lighter French literature of the day-so full of vocables fresh from the mint of camp or guinguette, and lively audacious terms povavтa ovveroioiv undreamt of by the forty-which would have puzzled Voltaire as much as Johnson."-Quarterly Review.
