Home travellers will be glad to have the Handbook for

North- amptonshire and Rutland (E. Stanford, 7s. (id.) in a second edition; which has been revised by " H. M. C.," under whose care it appears, as well as by various experts in topographical and arehitectural matters. Mr. W. Grey, of Moreton Pinkney Manor, has written on the Washington memorials at Sulgrave and elsewhere.—We may mention at the same time a volume of illustrations of one of the greatest of modem- works, The Port of Manchester : an- Illudrated History of the Manchester Ship Canal (Hind and Light, Manchester).
