We have received the fourth half-yearly volume of Travel and
Exploration, Edited by Eustace Reynolds-Ball (Witherby and Co., Is. 6d.) This is "an Illustrated Monthly of Travel, Exploration, Adventure, and Sport." We wish the undertaking continued prosperity, for its usefulness is undoubted. There is a certain wastefulness in the publication of separate volumes,' necessarily costly, in which notes of travel are sometimes published. These are often quite worthy of record, but hardly of record of this kind. In the pages of such a magazine as this they would find a more suitable home, and, if it meets with the success which it deserves, a larger circle of readers. As we turn over these pages we find a wonderful variety of scene. Here are some of the names —we choose the more obscure—Wadai, Pacasmayo, P6pocatepetl, Walamo, and Skardu. Sport, we should say, has a distinct place in the contents, and in these papers not a few useful hints may be found.
