The Album Renaissance, which has been sent us by Messrs. Marion and Co., hardly comes within the class of Art productions which we usually notice, its highly-illuminated margins presenting the only form of original art within its covers; while the literature is confined to a statement, which is undoubtedly tree, that " it combines strength with neatness." It is, however, a goodly and handsome album.
