Current (The) Gold and Silver Coins of all Countries, their Weight and Fineness, and their Intrinsic Value in English Money, with Facsimiles of the Coins. By Leopold C. Martin, of Her Majesty's Stationery Office, and Charles Trübner. In one volume, medium 8vo., 141 Plates, printed in Gold and Silver, and representing about 1,000 Coins, with 160 pages of Text, handsomely bound in embossed cloth, richly gilt, with Emblematical Designs on the Cover, and gilt edges. 1863. £2 2s.

This work, which the Publishers have much pleasure in offering to the Public, contains a series of the Gold and Silver Coins of the whole world, current during the present century. The collection amounts, numerically, to nearly a thousand specimens, comprising, with their reverses, twice that number; and the Publishers feel confident that it is as nearly complete as it was possible to make it.

It seems almost superfluous to allude to the utility of the work. It is evident that it must become a highly valuable Handbook to the Bullion-dealer and the Money-changer; and to the Merchant and Banker it will prove a sure and safe work of reference, from the extreme accuracy of its details and computations.

The elegance and splendour of the work admirably adapt it as a choice and instructive ornament to the drawing room table; the amusement to be found in the comparison of the taste of different countries as exemplified in their Coins, may chase away many a halfhour's ennui.

In the valuation of the substantial Coins, and the notation of their relative worth in English money, the minutest accuracy has been observed, as also in the statements of their relative purity, which are given according to the legal Mint regulations of each country. In exceptional cases only, where official information was not to be obtained of the weight and fineness of the Coins, assays as found at different places, are reported.

The exact weight of the Coins is expressed both in English troy grains and in French grammes, and the fineness by the English technical terms, as well as in French milliémes; the general tendency of our time towards the decimal metrical system making such a notation almost indispensable. For easier reference, tables of British reports for milliémes of gold and silver have been affixed.

Delepierre.-ANALYSE DES TRAVAUX DE LA SOCIETE DES PHILOBIBLON DE LONDRES. Par Octave Delepierre. Small 4to., pp. viii. and 134, bound in the Roxburghe style. 1862. 10s. 6d.

"It is probably not generally known, that among the numerous learned associations of the British metropolis there exists one called the Philobiblon Society. This somewhat exclusive union of bibliographic philosophers was established in 1853, under the auspices of the late Prince Consort, and after the model of the French Academy-it being one of the fundamental rules of the Society never to depass in number the immortal Forty. The statutes of the Philobiblon provided for the annual issue of a volume of historical, biographical, critical, and other essays, contributed by any of the forty members, and printed in a very limited edition -not a single book to be disposed of for money. To enhance the value of the works thus published, it was arranged that every member should receive only two copies of each volume, to be signed by the president and secretary of the society, and with the name of the possessor on the title-page.. . The contents of this half-a-dozen semi-mysterious and rare works have just been revealed in a curious little book published by Messrs. Trübner and Co., and got up in exact imitation of the products of Caxton's press. The work is dedicated by M. Octave Delepierro, the author, to the Duke D'Aumale, the patron of the Philobiblon since the decease of Prince Albert, and one of the leading members from the beginning.”— Spectator.

"Two unpretending but very useful books have been lately compiled by M. Delepierre and Mr. Nichols. The former, whose 'History of Flemish L terature' has already been noticed in these columns, has printed an abstract of the multifarious works issued by the Philobiblon Society of London, of which, by the way, he is the honorary secretary. How great a boon such catalogues as these are to historical and literary enquirers can only be estimated by those who have experienced the want of them. The gentlemen whose works we have named at the head of this paper, have done, in their way and degree, a service to literature which may be compared with those rendered by the compilers of the Calendars of the State Papers."Saturday Review.

"M. Delepierre, the secretary, is alsɔ a very important contributor. By way of tantalizing the public he issues this Analyse,' which is a descriptive catalogue of the precious rarities collected by the society."-Literary Budget.

"The account which M. Delepierre gives of these volumes makes us regret that their contents have remained, as he tells us, almost unknown to the public, since many of the contributions appear to be of much interest."-Parthenon.

Delepierre.-MACARONEANA ANDRA; overum Nouveaux Mélanges de Litterature Macaronique. Par Octave Delepierre. Small 4to., pp. 180, printed by Whittingham, and handsomely bound in the Roxburghe style. 1862. 10s. 6d. This Volume, together with the one published by the Author in 1852, form the completest collection of that peculiar form of poetry in existence.
