PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED.

The first two volumes of a HISTORY OF THE REIGN OF HENRY IV. of France, by Miss Freer, have been issued without a prefatory line ' but the title page informs us that the materials for the work have been drawn from numerous unpublished sources, including M.S. documents in the Bibliotheque Imperiale, and the Archives du royaume de France, &c.

TILE POITS AND THE JESUITS OF THE PRESENT CENTURY, by Dr. Michelsen, is a history of the order in every European State where it obtained a footing after its dissolution by Pope Clement XIV. in 1773, and terminates with its overthrow in the revolutions of 1848.

In the new edition of Mr. Whiteside's ITALY IN THE NINETEENTH Ceorrenv, the author says he has by a careful revision compressed the substantial contents of three volumes into one, not omitting anything of permanent interest.

A REVIEW OF THE LITERARY HISTORY OF GERMANY, from the earliest period to the beginning of the nineteenth century, will be wel- comed by a rapidly increasing class, the English students of Teutonic literature. Though the summary given is very condensed, the reader will find, especially if the subject be quite new to him, that he will derive from Mr. Solling's book a considerable amount of information on the earlier periods of German authorship. The Lay of the Nibelungen, and other primitive legends ; legends about animals and the epos of " Rek- ecke Fuchs," are all succinctly noticed. The Minstrels and Master Singers have some pages dedicated to the products of their genius. The literature of the Reformation period, with Martin Luther as its repre- sentative; and the " Volkslied," or popular poetry of the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth centuries, also receive illustration. The little volume contains both abstracts and extracts. Among the latter, is a ser- mon on the Resurrection of the Dead by the great leader of the Reforma- tion, which is accompanied with an interlineal translation. An alpha- betical list of remarkable authors from the sixteenth century to the ap- pearance of Klopstook, is subjoined. Mr. Soiling intimates a conditional intention of completing his useful task, by a second part of the "Re- view," in which the distinguished men of a more recent period, will be subjected to his critical appreciation.
