A Practical Handbook to the Principal Professions. By Charles Eyre
Pascoe. (Hardwick° and Bogue.)—Gives complete information about the examinations and other preliminaries necessary for those who would enter the Civil Service, the Army, the Navy, and the Legal and Medical professions (the Clerical profession has been purposely omitted). The changes in these arrangements are so rapid that it is necessary to be well informed, and that for some time beforehand, of what is required. We can recommend this handbook confidently.
In connection with the Cabal difficulty, Messrs. Stanford send us two maps, one showing the Indian and Afghan frontiers, the other being a map of Western Asia. Messrs. Johnston also send us a map of Afghanistan, showing the north-west frontiers of India and part of the southern boundaries of Russia in Central Asia.
