Mr. Gleig's reconstruction of BRIALMONT'S LIFE OF WELLINGTON is completed. The two concluding volumes comprise the period between the capitulation of Paris and the Duke's death. Their principal contents therefore relate to political history, but the last two chapters and the appendix, occupying together nearly half the fourth volume deal with the Duke's personal characteristics as displayed in every phase of hislife.

THE IIFE OF THE LATE BISHOP OF CALCUTTA has been written by his son-in-law from very ample materials, and with the sanction of his son. The late prelate had been for eight years vicar of Islington, when in 1832 he was promoted to the metropolitan see of India which he oc- cupied until his death in January 1858, in his eightieth year.

The time unavoidably occupied in the composition and production of Mr. Oliphant's elaborate Nennauvii OF ma EARL or Thenes Mis- sioN co Cinice. AND JAPAN, has enabled the author to increase the im- mediate utility of his work, with reference to recent events in China and their probable consequences. With this intention, he has entered at greater length than he would otherwise have done into details connected with the policy which Lord Elgin thought it expedient to adopt, and the difficulties with which he had to contend at the mouth of the Peiho.

Mr. Albany Fonblanque junior, whose excellent little treatise informs us "How we are Governed," has now written another which will help us to avoid going to law, by imparting to us a more exact know- ledge than is usually possessed by unprofessional persons of the most im- portant RIGHTS earn WRONGS that a British subject, whether man or woman, may acquire or commit in the ordinary relationships of life. Being professedly "A. Manual of Household Law," the little volume abstains from discussing subjects that do not properly come within its scope, such as the intricate obligations of the trading and commercial

From the School to the University is a natural transition and it has been made by two distinguished writers of fiotion. In transition, Magazine we read from month to month Tom Brown's experiences at Oxford, and the author of "Eric" having in that tale portrayed, from the moral point of view' the life and temptations of a boy at school, now aims in the story of JULIAN HONE "at giving a faithful picture of certain aspects of an undergraduate's career "—at Cambridge, doubtless, though the name is suppressed.

Of Mr. W. Winwood Reade's nauseous novel, LIBERTY HALL, which also professes to be a picture of English University life, it is enough to say, that it represents nothing so truly as the author's depraved taste and obliquity of understanding.
