(OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES, Boston, Mass.)—" I found that your little microscopic dictionary was equal to the hard task I put upon it; surprising me by the richness of its little columns, and the exceedingly knowing way in which common French colloquialisms were rendered into corresponding English ones. I was fairly astonished that such an atom of a book could be such a cyclopædia of phrases. I consider the little lexicon the very gem of my library."

FOLK-LORE OF EUROPE DURING THE MIDDLE AGES. By M. GASTER.

The intention of these Ilchester Lectures is to give a sketch of the origin and development of the Slavonic Nations in the Balkan Peninsula, and of the old Slavonic Literature which became the basis of the literature and of the Folk-lore of the various peoples belonging to the Greeko-orthodox Church—such as the Bulgarians, Servians and Russians, and also of the non-Slavonic Roumanians. The old Slavonic literature, based upon the Byzantine, is likewise a reflex of this less-known portion of the Greek literature, and contributes to a better knowledge of it.

The enumeration is lengthy, but compensation will be found in the increased feelings of man's superiority, as indicated by that freedom of will which enables him to fulfil his duty towards himself, his neighbour and his Creator."

SCOTSMAN. "Full of interesting information.

MIND." There is nothing to be added here to what has formerly been said of the author's extraordinary patience and diligence in the composition of a work which he now describes (incidentally) as a history of peoples in their social capacity, including their manners and customs, their government, their religion, their superstitions, and their literary, artistic and scientific advancement, or, more shortly, as a universal history of civilisation."

NEW YORK EVENING POST.-"A vast number of details about the Pacific Islanders which may serve as material for social and religious history. It is a merit of the work that it does not attempt to make theories, but sets down the simple facts in orderly arrangement and without comment.'
