CURRENT LITERATURE.

The Indian Empire : its History, People, and Products. By W. W. Hunter, C.I.E., LL.D. (Triibner and Co.)—We have already noticed this volume in our review of the " Imperial Gazetteer," and of Dr. Hunter's remarkable article on India, in that gazetteer, of which this volume is in the main a reprint. This handsome book presents us with a very much more convenient form of Dr. Hunter's review of the resources and conditions of our Indian Empire than was the original article. And it contains besides much else from the "Im- perial Gazetteer" that is not in that special article.
