Erasmus in Praise of Folly. (Reeves and Turner.).-.-A very sumptuous

edition of Erasmus's famous Encomium, printed in type that it is a pleasure to read, and on paper which it is a delight to touch. And then we have tbe original illustrations, the "many curious Cuts, Designed, Drawn, and Etched by Hans Holbein." Altogether, the volume is one for which we have every reason to be thankful to the publisher; who will, We hope, get their due reward.
