We are glad to notice a new edition of Areopagitica

(A. and C. Black_ 103. net), published under the direction of Mr. Sydney Humphries. The fact that the whole profit derived from. its sale is to be devoted to the London Library would in itself be a com- mendation. But the volume is very finely produced,. and the design and blackness of the type are highly creditable to the printers. Under the same auspices and in a similar binding has been issued an edition of Hamlet (L. and C. Black. 10s. net), the profits from which are to be given to the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre.
