Pocket - Books. — We have received from De la Rne .and Cad' levers'
Pocket-Books and Diaries,—ladies' and gentlemen's--wlaich are rrery handsomely bound in rtunian-leather. The larger of themcontain, if any- thing, even too much information, and we cannot help thinking that they would be quite as much appreciated, if not more so, if some of the more abstruse scientific knowledge were left out, and a little more moth -left for notes and accounts. It would, however, be impossible to overpraise the care with which the information is compiled. We have also- received from De la Rue and Co. a number of richly-painted Christmas Cards— the birds are, perhaps, the moat beautiful—which will be greatly appre- ciated by the young. We would suggest that the flower-pictures would be more appropriate, if restricted to pictures of the few-flowers which are really in bloom in England at Christmas. The doga,are admirably drawn.
