itness
for the task by the _Glossary of Architecture_ with which his name has
been so long and so honourably connected. The work, which supplies a
deficiency which the architectural student has {346} long felt, is
produced in the same handsome style, and with the same profuseness of
illustration, as its predecessor, and will be found valuable not only to
archaeologists who study history in brick and stone, but also to those
who search in the memorials of bygone ages for illustrations of manners
and customs, and of that greater subject than all, the history of our
social progress.

BOOKS RECEIVED.--_History of England from the Peace of Utrecht
to the Peace of Versailles_, 1713--1783, by Lord Mahon, vol. ii.
1720--1740. This second volume of the new and cheaper edition of Lord
Mahon's work extends from the accession of Walpole and Townshend to
office in 1720, to the Declaration of War against Spain in 1739, and
contains a valuable appendix of original papers.--_The Annals of Roger
de Hoveden, from_ A.D. 732 _to_ A.D. 1201, _translated from the Latin,
with Notes and Illustrations_, by Henry T. Riley. Vol. I. A.D. 732 to
A.D. 1180, is a new volume of the valuable series of Translations of
Early English Chronicles, which is to give so important a character to
Bohn's _Antiquarian Library_.--_Thomas a Becket and other Poems_, by
Patrick Scott. Notices of new poems scarcely fall within our vocation,
but Mr. Scott is a true poet, and we cannot refuse to praise the present
volume, and more especially the little poem which owes its origin to the
notice of the opening of the coffin of Lady Audrey Leigh in our 156th
Number.--_The Family Shakspeare, &c._, by Thomas Bowdler, Vol. V. This
fifth volume contains Troilus and Cressida, Coriolanus, Julius Caesar,
Antony and Cleopatra, and Cymbeline.
