    jBib liotheca Cantiana : a Bibliographical Account of what has been published on the History , Topography , Antiquities , Customs , and Family History , of the County of Kent . By John Russell Smith . 8 vo . pp . 360 . Smith . This is a work by the publisher , our good friend in Compton street , who , next to Mr Miller of Oxford street , has been the first to patronize our catalogue-publishing aspirations , and

    therefore has our cordial good wishes for his own sake , as well as for the merit of what he publishes . No lover , that can afford it , of fertile , manly , sea-breathing Kent , the unconquered county , the bough-carrying bargainer with William the First , will be without the volume now before us ; the merit of compiling which ,

    in the way in which Mr Smith has done it , is not to be easily appreciated by those who do not know what it is to be obliged to consult a multitude of books , and to have a conscience in doing it . It contains much original information , and matter interesting to the Historian , Biographer , Lbcalist , and Politician , including a list of acts of Parliament .

    ingenious blending of a real scene , the battle field at night , during a truce , with the scene the dreamer sees with his mind ' s eye , his sunny home . The soldier is gazing on the ground , which seems to open , and reveal the treasures he is thinking of . Ehrenbreitstein is a curious little miniature of a giant .

With Descriptions of the Plates , by John Carne , Esq . London : Fisher , Son , and Co . 4 to . pi . 37 , pp . 76 . This is one of that class of anmials , which , treating of matters of fact , possesses a kind of perennial interest , though np less handsomely got up than its fellows . The views in the present

    volume are all by Mr Bartlett , whose improvement in the art of view-taking we have watched with pleasure ; they include sopj . e of the most striking scenes in the romantic region from which they are taken . The descriptive letter-press is pertinent a ^ d frh teresting . It appears to be parr tiallv composed of the notes of the intelligent artist .
