Mabel in Rhymeland. By Edward Holland. (Griffith, Ferran, and Co.)—This

is a book of the "Alice in Worderland" kind. Mabel, the heroine, meets with the personages of various nursery-rhymes,—with the " Man in the Moon, who came down too soon, to ask his way to Norwich," with " Little Jack Homer," with " Little Miss Moffet," and a variety of other heroes and heroines of fable and legend. The illustrations seem fairly good ; whether the children will find the stories amusing we are inclined to doubt.
