Selection of Cathedral Chants. No. I. By E. MERRIOT. This

number is an excellent sample of the work which Mr. Mi:a- RIOT appears to have undertaken. He had selected his materials front the best authors, admitting such only as have the solemn and devotional character which the chant ought to possess, and rejecting all that are disfigured by modern prettinesses. Among the original ones are three by Mr. TURLE, well worthy of association with those of CROTCH, COOK E, and E DoN.
