AUSTRALIAN VIEWS OF ENGLAND. By _Henry Parkes_. Crown 8vo. cloth. 3_s_. 6_d_.
"_The following letters were written during a residence in England, in the years 1861 and 1862, and were published in the_ Sydney Morning Herald _on the arrival of the monthly mails.... On re-perusal, these letters appear to contain views of English life and impressions of English notabilities which, as the views and impressions of an Englishman on his return to his native country after an absence of twenty years, may not be without interest to the English reader. The writer had opportunities of mixing with different classes of the British people, and of hearing opinions on passing events from opposite standpoints of observation._"--_Author's Preface_.
THE LIFE OF SIR WALTER RALEGH, based upon Contemporary Documents. By _Edward Edwards_. Together with Ralegh's Letters, now first collected. With Portrait. Two vols. 8vo. 32_s_.
"_Mr. Edwards has certainly written the Life of Ralegh from fuller information than any previous biographer. He is intelligent, industrious, sympathetic: and the world has in his two volumes larger means afforded it of knowing Ralegh than it ever possessed before. The new letters and the newly-edited old letters are in themselves a boon._"--_Pall Mall Gazette_.
