The Antiquary, Vol. XXXII'. (Elliot Stock, 7s. 6d.), is not

less interesting than usual. We may mention among its contents, "The Ramblings of an Antiquary," with notes on Hardwick Hall, Mr. F. Haverfield's "Quarterly Notes on Roman Britain," "A Journey from London to Edinburgh in 1795," and the "Inven- tory of Church Goods of St. Peter on Cornhill " (three parts).

Many of our readers will doubtless be interested either for themselves or for others in the information supplied by The Routes and Mineral Resources of North-Western Canada, by E. Jerome Dyer (G. Philip and Son).—With this may be men- tioned British Columbia for Settlers : its Mines, Trade, and Agri- culture, by Frances Ilacnab (Chapman and Hall).

In the series of "The Olive Books "—so called, we suppose, from the colour of their binding—we have Guesses at Truth, selec- tions by P. E. Gertrude Girdlestone from the well-known work of the brothers Augustus and Julius Hare (Routledge and Sons).

We gladly mention and commend to all who may be interested in the subjects with which the periodical deals, the third annual volume of Middlesex and Hertfordshire Notes and Queries (Hardy and Page).
