give a place to such a sketch as the 'Bewildered Pleasure-seeker;" in which, without a word of preachment, the amount of hard service exacted by the world of fashion from its votaries, is accurately reckoned up for the warning of those who are under the influence of the glamour of anticipation. The papers on the co-operative movement, also, will well repay perusal ; and, on the whole, the number is an excellent one.". Atlas.

A NEW FAMILY PAPER,

PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY, IN TOWN & COUNTRY. PRICE ONE PENNY. On MARCH 14th, 1867, the Proprietors of The Christian World will issue the FIRST NUMBER of an Interesting and Instructive Periodical, for Universal Reading, to be entitled

"HAPPY HOURS.'

TAPPY HOURS is intended to be essentially a Family Paper of genial, cheerful, and instructive reading, attractive to the Young, and in its tone and character such that no parents or otherwise responsible persons can object to place it in the hands of their children or the servants of their households; whilst it will aim also to revive or deepen old lessons in the minds of more mature and advanced readers, and so prove of general interest in the Family Circle. It will contain the following among other Special Features:

I-WORKS OF IMAGINATION by writers of
high character and acknowledged ability.
The object of this department will be to
interest all classes of readers by continued
and completed stories, which will appear in
each number, opening up, as far as possible,
new scenes illustrative of different forms of
life and thought in past times, and also, and
especially, of the life and thought of the
present time.
II-BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES, intended
chiefly for the young, but written so as also
to supply a pleasing chapter of light literature
for readers of more mature years. The first
of this series of Papers will be entitled, "Boys
who have become Famous Men."
III-AN ARTICLE OR ESSAY on some Social

or Economical Subject connected with the
higher grades of Human Thought, and adapted
to suggest inquiry into objects of common life
and duty. It will be a reflection on topics of
thought suggested by Passing Events, and
the aim will be to make it at once wholesome,
entertaining, and instructive.
IV.-STORIES OF ADVENTURE. old and
new. The first paper of this series will be
entitled, "The Fathers of English Com-
merce," and will relate to those great men-
English Vikings who laid the foundation of

our naval and commercial greatness, and of the vast colonial empire to which these gave birth. V.-CAREFUL SELECTIONS, giving the spirit and tendency of New Books. The object in this department will be to present a perfectly unbiassed view of the Newest Books, and to present that view in a lively paper, and in such a form as will convey a fair general idea of their contents. VI.-SKETCHES OF WORK & WORKERS from Real Life. It is hoped that this feature will be one of much interest; and it will be varied from time to time by a reflex of the impressions of practical workmen with respect to practical trade principles, so that the young house or ship carpenter, mason, engineer, spinner, dyer, &c., &c., may have assistance in his handicraft in a simpler and less technical form than that usually given in treatises on trades. VII-SKETCHES FROM NATURAL HISTORY, &c., by skilful and experimental naturalists.

VIII.-PUZZLES OF EVERY KIND AND Description, from mere plays on letters, words, and phrases, to easy problems in elementary mathematics.

In addition to these, the Journal will contain POETRY, AMUSING SELECTIONS, ANECDOTES, NOTICES of REMARKABLE DAYS and EVENTS, HISTORICAL and OTHER QUESTIONS for Boys and GIRLS, HISTORICAL GLEANINGS, MORAL STRUGGLES and TRIUMPHS-RECOGNISED and UNRECOGNISED, SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS, &c., &c., &c.

In these and like features the Publishers hope to present a Journal, pure in tone, and so thoroughly instructive and interesting, as to bring into thousands of family circles many "HAPPY HOURS."

London: JAMES CLARKE & CO., 13, Fleet Street; and to be had of all Booksellers and News-agents in Great Britain.

THE ALDINE EDITION OF THE POETS.

MESSRS. BELL & DALDY, having become sole Proprietors of the Copyright of the ALDINE Edition of the BRITISH POETS, originally published by the late Mr. Pickering, have endeavoured to give increased value to the new issue by a careful revision of the texts, by the correction of errors, and by the addition of any illustrative matter that recent literary investigation has provided. Nearly all the authors have undergone this revision, and the services of the most competent editors have been secured. The publishers believe that the handiness of its size, the elegance of its external appearance, and the care which has been taken to secure correctness and completeness, render this the best, most accurate, and most scholar-like edition that has yet been produced.

Complete sets, in 52 vols., very handsomely bound in smooth green cloth, price £12 18s. 6d.

A limited number of copies (only 150 for the English market) on large paper, crown 8vo, price £18 18s. NoT A DOZEN COPIES NOW REMAIN OF THIS LARGE PAPER EDITION.

RECENTLY PUBLISHED ILLUSTRATED WORKS.

"The SOSII of Fleet Street publish not so much for the flimsy taste of accidental purchasers, but with a view of making solid and permanent contributions to Art. Many of their books this year are intended, and the intention is realized, to stand as contributions to the History of Art, and may be classed rather as galleries founded on principle than as collections gathered by the accidents of the market."-SATURDAY REVIEW.
