We have received four volumes of " Illustrated Guide-Books "

(Ward, Lock, and Co., ls. each), all of them well-established in public favour, to judge from the number of editions through which they have passed, and therefore needing but the briefest notice. These are The English Lake District (we observe a very useful tariff of hotel charges, varying, to speak of pension only, from 87s. at Bowness to 30s. at Workington and at Bowness also) ; Newquay and North Cornwall ; North Wales : Northern Section (here, again, the tariffs are given) ; Leamington, Warwick, and Kenilworth.
