8mo._ This is a delightful little story, interesting from its incidents and characters, and conveying excellent morality and humanity in a pleasing dress. The illustrations are those of the London edition, and are admirably graphic. Cruikshank's mode of making a face expressive of character by caricaturing it, is well exhibited in his sketches in the present volume. _The Book of Visions, being a Transcript of the Record of the Secret Thoughts of a Variety of Individuals while attending Church._ The design of this little work is original and commendable. It is written to do good, and we trust may answer the expectations of its author. It enters the bosoms of members of the cabinet, members of congress, bankers, lawyers, editors, &c ., and reports the secret meditations of those who affect to be worshipers. It is published by J. W. MOORE of this city. DESCRIPTION OF THE FASHION PLATE.
