Dod's Parliamentary Companion for 1890-91. (George Bell and Sons.)—There are

none of the Parliamentary Companions which seem to us so compendious and useful as Dod's, and we always welcome a new edition of his Parliamentary analysis. In the present case, his Companion has appeared just too soon to record the Nottinghamshire (Bassetlaw) election of December 15th; but the return of Mr. Roby for the Eccles Divison of South-East Lan- cashire by the narrow majority of 205, is duly recorded; and, indeed, as is usual with Dod, the work is brought well up to time.
