CAREY & LEA HAVE RECENTLY PUBLISHED THE FOLLOWING VALUABLE WORKS. I. HISTORY OF ENGLAND, BEING A PORTION OF The Cabinet History of the British Islands, EMBRACING HISTORY of ENGLAND. By Sir JAMES MACKINTOSH, Vol. I. "Our anticipations of this volume were certainly very highly raised, and unlike such anticipations in general, they have not been disappointed. A philosophical spirit, a nervous style, and a full knowledge of the subject, acquired by considerable research into the works of preceding chroniclers and historians, eminently distinguish this popular abridgment, and cannot fail to recommend it to universal approbation. In continuing his work as he has begun, Sir James Mackintosh will confer a great benefit on his country.”—Lond. Lit. Gazette. HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir WALTER SCOTT, 2 vols. HISTORY of IRELAND. By THOMAS MOORE, 1 vol. II. HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir WALTER SCOTT, Bart. in 2 vols. 12mo. The History of Scotland, by Sir Walter Scott, we do not hesitate to declare, will be, if possible, more extensively read, than the most popular work of fiction, by the same prolific author, and for this obvious reason: it combines much of the brilliant colouring of the Ivanhoe pictures of by-gone manners, and all the graceful facility of style and picturesqueness of description of his other charming romances, with a minute fidelity to the facts of history, and a searching serutiny into their authenticity and relative value, which might put to the blush Mr. Hume and other professed historians. Such is the magic charm of Sir Walter Scott's pen, it has only to touch the simplest incident of every day life, and it starts up invested with all the interest of à scene of romance; and yet such is his fidelity to the text of nature, that the knights, and cerfs, and collared fools with whom his inventive genius has peopled so many volumes, are regarded by us as not mere creations of fancy, but as real flesh and blood existences, with all the virtues, feelings and errors of common place humanity."-Lit. Gaz III. CLARENCE; a Tale of our own Times. By the Author of REDWOOD, HOPE LESLIE, &c. In two volumes. IV. CAMDEN; a Tale of the South. In two Vols. V. ATLANTIC SOUVENIR, FOR 1831. Embellishments.-1.

SKETCHES of CHINA, with Illustrations from Original Drawings. By W. W. WooD, in 1 vol. 12mo. "The residence of the author in China, during the years 1826-7-8 and 9, has enabled him to collect much very curious information relative to this singular people, which he has embodied in his work; and will serve to gratify the curi osity of many whose time or dispositions do not allow them to seek, in the voluminous writings of the Jesuits and early travellers, the information contained in the present work. The recent discussion relative to the renewal of the East India Company's Charter, has excited much interest; and among ourselves, the desire to be further acquainted with the subjects of the Celestial Empire' has been considerably augmented." VIII. FALKLAND, a Novel, by the Author of PELHAM, &c. 1 vol. 12mo. IX. MEMOIR on the TREATMENT of VENEREAL DISEASES WITHOUT MERCURY, employed at the Military Hospital of the Val-de-Grace.

By JOHN HENNEN, M. D. F. R. S. E. Inspector of Military Hospitals-first American from the third London edition, with Life of the Author, by his son, Dr. JOHN HENnen. "The value of Dr. Hennen's work is too well appreciated to need any praise of ours. We were only required then, to bring the third edition before the notice of our readers; and having done this, we shall merely add, that the volume merits a place in every library, and that no military surgeon ought to be without it.”—Medical Gazette. "It is a work of supererogation for us to eulogize Dr. Hennen's Military Surgery; there can be no second opinion on its merits. It is indispensable to the military and naval surgeon."-London Medical and Surgical Journal. XI. PATHOLOGICAL and PRACTICAL RESEARCHES on DISEASES of the STOMACH, the INTESTINAL CANAL, the LIVER, and other VISCERA of the ABDOMEN. By JOHN ABERCROMBIE, M. D.

XVI. A New Edition of a TREATISE of SPECIAL and GENERAL ANATOMY, by the same author, 2 vols. 8vo. XVII.

D., F. R. S. &c. &c. Physician in Ordinary to his Royal Highness Prince Leopold, of Saxe Cobourg. Dr. Macculloch is a great philosopher and logician. His views are calculated to do much good. We have therefore taken great pains to concentrate and dif fuse them widely through the profession. Nothing but a strong conviction that the work before us contains a multitude of valuable genis, could have induced us to bestow so much labour on the review. In rendering Dr. Maceulloch's work more accessible to the profession, we are conscious that we are doing the state same service.”—Med. Chir. Reviewv. We most strongly recommend Dr. Macculloch's treatise to the attention of our medical brethren, as presenting a most valuable mass of information, on a most important subject.”—Am.
