We have to notice a compendious and useful edition of

Plato's Apology of Socrates and Crib, by Dr. Wilhelm Wagner. (Deighton and Bell, Bell -and Daldy.)—The annotations are compressed within a small compass, but deal with all the difficulties that are likely to meet the student. A youth cannot do better than make his first acquaintance with Plato through these treatises ; and he will find an efficient help in Dr. Wagner.
