"There is a time for all things," says Solomon ;

HEATH Will vainly try to impugn this maxim of the royal visdom. People are fond of the firstlings of the season, but any thing entirely out of season seems monstrous : we should not relish a peach in January or admire a dahlia in December. Here is a picture.hook of the Annual tribe, in a warm autumnal covering of maroon eonn, with the inviting title of Beauty's Costume, and containing a bevy ni twelve "beauties "—enough for the travelling seraglio of a Pacha._ selected from Mr. If l'ATit's picture harem, and attired, as the fide magnificently sets forth, "in the dresses of all times and nations." Mr. LEITCH Racittr, moreover, supplies "original descriptions" of some half-dozen lines to each : yet with all this we are not charmed. Perhaps because we have seen the fair creatures before; though they appear in computty for the first time, and with the addition of not very brilliant colour.
A series of ten pretty little views of celebrated beauty. spots in the Scenery of Edinburgh and Mid Lothian, taken by W. B. SCOTT, and engraved very neatly by R. SCOTT, will be very acceptable to such as wish to possess a small, accurate, and inexpensive memorial of pie, turesque scenes in the Scottish capital and its vicinity.
