JAMES NASMYTH, ENGINEER: an Autobiography. With Portrait and 90 Illustrations. Post 8vo. 6s. "The whole range of literary biography may be searched in vain for a more interesting record of an active, useful, successful, and happy life, than is presented by the delightful autobiography of James Nasmyth." Edinburgh Review.

"We should not know where to stop if we were to attempt to notice all that is instructive and interesting in this volume. It will be found equally interesting to students of human nature, to engineers, to astronomers, and even to archæologists. Among other merits, there are few books which could be pur with more advantage into a young man's hands, as affording an example of the qualities which conduce to legitimate success in work-Quarterly Review.

"It would he impossible to give any notion here of the increasing activity of mind which gives life to every page of this book; nor can we even hint at the number of charming little mechanical 'dodges' contrived for all manner of purposes by Mr. Nasmyth in his odd moments."-Saturday Review

"An autobiography which is quite a model, both in charming simplicity of style and in modest self-effacement. One of the most ."-Globe. pleasant and interesting books we have met for many a day.'

MEN of INVENTION and INDUSTRY (recently published) Post 8vo. 6s.

"Dr. Smiles has probably done more, by his many interesting books, He is to uphold the dignity and power of labour than any other writer the prose laureate of industry and its captains have found in him one who is not only enthusiastic himself, but who is also capable of infusing others with a like enthusiasm.... We have no doubt that these latest chapters in the history of industry and scientific investigation will be quite as popular as their predecessors."-Times.

W. WESLEY & SON, 28, ESSEX-STREET STRAND, LONDON,

The TIMES, October 16th, 1885.-"The new electoral divisions set up by the Redistribution of Seats Act, 1885, Lay for all Parliamentary purposes superseded the ancient and well-known county. It is therefore important that the area a contents of these new divisions should become generally known, and for this purpose the 'Parliamentary County Atl and Handbook of England and Wales,' just published by Mr. Stanford, will be found of real service. It is extreme handy in form (a flexible octavo), and the numerous maps are so set in as to be easy of consultation. The contents a very varied...... We have maps of all the Counties of England and Wales on a uniform scale, with the boundaries and nam of the new divisions marked and written in red, and further distinguished by various tints of colour. There are, besile plans of towns returning more than two members coloured to show the Parliamentary divisions.....Accompanying a these maps is a carefully compiled handbook of useful statistical and other information......Its utility to all who have a interest in public affairs is evident. The whole get-up of the volume, binding, letterpress, and maps, is worthy of a praise."

The DAILY NEWS, October 23rd, 1885.-"This important volume, issued opportunely in view of the approachin General Election, is probably destined to be known to Parliamentary agents and other busy persons under the brief an ready name of Stanford, while to others it will, no doubt, be distinguished as The Parliamentary Atlas..... Perhaps we say that it offers by the combined labours of the printer, the map draughtsman, and the colourist a survey of Engla and Wales from every point of view whence the geographer, the politician, the ecclesiastical diguitary, the statistia the lawyer, the fiscal administrator, the urban and county authority, and the parochial officer have occasion to regard the country, we should come even nearer to an indication of its scope and purpose. Its maps number altogether eighty-ni of which many occupy a double page or fill out a folding leaf......Condensation, however, has been so well applied to th task of presenting digests of numberless Parliamentary returns, and other recent authorities, that the 'Parliamentary Atla is brought within the compass of a substantial octavo, strongly and handsomely bound."

The STANDARD, October 21st, 1885.-"For completeness and compactness leaves nothing to be desired. A glan: at its contents shows that it is far more than a mere county atlas."

The PALL MALL GAZETTE, October 20th, 1885.-"In Stanford's Parliamentary County Atlas of England an Wales' we have not a mere collection of maps, but attached to each county (here we are happy to say the counties are hi down on a uniform scale of three miles to a centimètre) are several pages of statistics bearing upon the acreage, populatio and all the legal and administrative subdivisions of the county......We cordially commend this publication as one of the not least useful concomitants and consequences of the Reform Act of 1885.

The WHITEHALL REVIEW, October 15th, 1885.-"The letterpress connected with this publication will be of extreme value at a time so near to the General Election. It gives a list of parishes, petty sessional divisions, and unions with population tables, and other information concerning county statistics and local administration.'

The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, October 24th, 1885 Full of matter which Parliamentary candidates s likely to find indispensable. Indeed, this beautiful atlas, produced in the form of an octavo volume, will not c admirably serve a temporary purpose, but promises to be of enduring value. The eighty-nine coloured maps it contain not only include maps of all the counties of England and Wales, but such physical and statistical maps as will rejoice the hearts of students......Moreover, the volume is a handbook as well as an atlas, and is full of the most valuable statistic with regard to registration divisions.
