ERMAN'S TRAVELS through SIBERIA. 8vo.

[In the press.

** On this traveller, the President of the Royal Geographical Society, in his Anniversary Address last year, bestowed the following encomium:-"If we regard M. Adolph Erman as an astronomical geographer and explorer of distant lands, we must all admit that he stands in the very highest rank." And in his Address delivered in May last, the President again made honourable mention of this traveller in the following terms:-" In announcing to you with pleasure that the excellent work of your distinguished foreign member and medallist, Adolph Erman, is about to appear in English, I must not lose the opportunity of stating, that the last communication sent to us by M. Erman is one of very great importance."

"The plan of this work we have before taken occasion to commend. It has, indeed, two great and obvious advantages. In the first place, the narrative style must always be more interesting than the merely descriptive; and, in the next, the express subject of any particular volume must receive more justice than it could hope for in any treatise of general geography. In both respects it must form an admirable companion to such general treatises, which it is by no means intended to supersede, but to amplify, explain, and illustrate. To such works, therefore, as Malte-Brun (improved by succeeding editors), the addition of this companion cannot fail to constitute a complete body of geography, so far as regards the countries and objects to be surveyed.'"-ATHENEUM.

We have no English summary of the history it relates, so brief, compendious, and impartial. M. Dahlmann is a very earnest as well as intelligent writer; and the steady advance of the popular principle in England, through an almost uninterrupted march of two centuries, is startlingly reflected in his clear and transparent relation. Mr. Lloyd's translation is very well executed."-EXAMINER.

De Strzelecki has passed twelve years in voyaging and exploring round the globe; and, out of these, five of continual labour, during a tour of 7,000 miles on foot,' were devoted to Tasmania. It seems needless to add to this, that we have hitherto had no description of the country comparable to his for care and authenticity. Its scientific plan is judiciously preserved throughout the work; but we have, now and then, at the foot of the page, very interesting notes of personal observation or adventure, extracted from M.

"The labour bestowed upon this important work has seldom, we should suppose, been equalled; and we have the fullest conviction, from the merely cursory examination we are able to give to such a stupendous task, that the result justifies all the labour, time, and money expended upon it. Indeed, the whole book bears the most palpable evidence of honest carefulness and unwearied diligence (the points of prime worth in a Concordance); and wherever we have dipped into its pages (about 1800), we have, in every case, had our opinion of its neatness, accuracy, and lucid order, confirmed and increased."-LITERARY GAZETTE.
