are extremely rare; but as soon as it rises, the papers are filled with accounts of the most horrible atrocities." We wish Mr. Collet had given this passage in the original, or, at least, the name of the work from which it is borrowed. The author, he says, is anonymous.

The speculator on Phrenography (the word comes of an honest stock, and has quite as much intelligence as its own brother, the favourite Phrenology) will be much gratified by the large plate of fac-simile autographs. It contains XLIV signatures of some of the most illustrious names in our history; and is in our eyes by far the most desirable part of this volume.
