The following are the principal Authors selected from: "The Literary Coronal is filled with the choicest flowers that have flourished in the Garden of recent Literature, and contains a vast deal of matter in a portable form; it is rich even to satiety in the golden thoughts that have dropt from the pen of living genius. We warmly recommend it therefore to that numerous class of men who read as it were by stealth, and can only now and then snatch a private hour from the cares and fatigues of business; for such readers it must necessarily have inestimable attractions, and in our opinion possesses advantages over every other work of the kind, within the range of our observation."-Scots Times.

The few incidents which compose the career of White are accurately detailed, and his literary powers justly and pleasingly estimated, but the affectation of hypercriticism, so much in vogue, and the redundancy of literary digression, are not for a moment permitted to intrude. ** Observe to order the Glasgow University Press Edition, being the most complete and cheapest edition published in one volume.

This day is published, The Fourteenth Edition, with important Additions, Alterations, and ILLUSTRATIONS of MASONRY. By the late WILLIAM PRESTON, Esq. Past-Master of the Lodge of Antiqui-ty, acting by immemorial Constitution. "We have no hesitation in praising it, since we happen to know that the most distinguished personage in literature, whom Scotland can or ever could boast of, has deliberately pronounced it to be the best book of its kind that has fallen into his hands. It is chiefly remark able for skilful condensation of much matter, which has lost none d its value by undergoing that process-accurate and extensive histori cal knowledge, and elegance and vigour of diction. The formations of the plan of the work, and its various details, and the preparatory study, must have cost much more labour than the composition itsel for a plan more perfect-embracing such a variety of objects (all the is interesting and curious in Scottish scenery)-and showing the geographical relations in which these objects, and the roads conducting to them, stand to each other, never came under our observation." RUDIMENTS of GEOGRAPHY, on a New Plan, The value of the whole work is much enhanced by a number of designed to assist the Memory by Comparison and Classifica- Maps, upon such a truly original and ingenious plan as do credit to the inventor.-Each of these is devoted to an entire tour, occupees a page, and consists of three columns, in which are distinctly trend all the places of any note, (mountains, lakes, rivers, towns, village. villas, &c.) along the route to be pursued, their relative distation, and the roads that diverge from the route."-Caledonian Mercury 11th May, 1829.

WOODBRIDGE, A.M.

In the Moral and Political Chart, the outlines of each country contain a number, showing its Population, and several emblems indicating its Government, Religion, and State of Civilization; and form, in effect, a Moral Picture of the World. This Atlas has been compiled from the best Authorities, and contains all the late Discoveries of Parry, Weddell, Denham, and Clap-man, 16th April, 1828. perton. But its principal claim to attention is founded on the entire novelty of the plan; each Map presents, not only the geographical outlines of countries, but a series of numbers affixed to the Mountains, Rivers, and Cities, which indicate their comparative rank, and enable the Student, by reference to the Table of Classification, to discover their actual magnitude. The Isothermal Chart exhibits the Climate of different Regions, as determined by Thermometrical Observation, with their most important Productions, and presents a striking illustration of the diversity existing in the same Latitudes, according to the situation of Countries.

TO THE DYSPEPTIC, BUTLER'S COOLING APERIENT POWDERS,-produce an extremely refreshing Effervescing Drink, preferable to Soda, Seidlitz, or Magnesia Water, and at the same time A MILD AND COOLING APERIENT, peculiarly adapted to promote the healthy action of the Stomach and Bowels, and thereby prevent the recurrence of Constipation and Indigestion, with all their train of consequences, as Depression, Flatulence, Acidity or Heartburn, Headache, Febrile Symptoms, Eruptions on the Skin, &c. &c. and by frequent use will obviate the necessity of having recourse to Calomel, Epsom Salts, and other violent medicines, which tend to debilitate the system. When taken after too free an indulgence in the luxuries of the table, particularly after too much wine, the usual disagreeable effects are altogether avoided. In warm climates they will be found extremely beneficial, as they prevent accumulation of Bile, and do not debilitate. The rapid sale of the first Edition of the Scottish Tourist is a decided proof of the superiority both of its plan and execution over any similar work. The second Edition, besides being illustrated by four new Plates, will be found to contain very considerable Additions and Improvements.

Of whom may also be procured, BUTLER'S CARBONATED EFFERVESCING HARROWGATE SALTS,-which contain all the solid ingredients of the celebrated Springs of Harrowgate, with the very important addition of the Volatile Gases in an immediate state of disengagement, by the addition of pure water, and altogether will be found a valuable substitute, proper for those Invalids who are unable to reside at Harrowgate. The Water of the Harrowgate Springs is very successfully used in cases of Scurvy, Scrofula, and Bilious and Gouty Affections; and it has, in particular, acquired great celebrity for the removal of the most complicated and obstinate Cutaneous Eruptions. The Salts are sold in 4s, 6d, and 10s. 6d. Bottles.

Sold at 10s. the thousand Caps, and 288. the thousand Tubes,-by BUTLER & Co., Chemists, 73, Prince's Street, Edinburgh,-also by most respectable Gunmakers in all parts of the Kingdom. N.B.
