Two pleasing little illustrated volumes are TVordsworth's Ode on Immortality

and Lines on Tintern. Abbey and Milton's L'Allegro and It Penseroso, both published by Messrs. Cassell and Co. Each is copiously illustrated ; but we decidedly prefer the first-named, the more imaginative pictures of the second aiming at a higher mark, bat being less successful, we think, in reaching it. The landscapes which accompany Wordsworth's two poems, wood engravings of the new style, are remarkably pleasing. There are pretty pieces, too, of the same style in the Milton.
