Nursery Numbers ; a New Book of Old Rhymes. (Marcus

Ward.)— This is shook of the same class as the last. It consists of illustrations of the old never-to-be-improved-on nursery rhymes. The costumes of the personages are, perhaps, a little too " wsthetic" and antiquarian ; but that is not wholly out of place, considering the subject. They are splendidly coloured ; and we can testify by personal experience that they are eminently appreciated by children.
