Inorganic Chemistry. By A. Humboldt Sexton. (Blackie and Sons.)—This text-book

is on a similar plan to the general run of chemistry primers, except that the mathematical part is placed at the end instead of at the beginning, a rather better plan, we are inclined to think, than the usual one. The style, though clear, is somewhat short and brief; a little fullness of style is always desirable in this class of text-book. The book seems quite up to the average standard of elementary science primers.
