CAMP AND QUARTERS;
OR, SCENES OF MILITARY LIFE.
By Major Patterson,
Author of "Adventures in the 50th, or Queen's own Regiment."
"Major Patterson hits the right temper in these lively volumes-his work will be a useful addition to our anecdotical library, reflecting with the fidelity of a mirror the vicissitudes and contretemps of a soldier's experience."--Attas.

In two vols. with Illustrations,
WESTERN INDIA IN 1838.
By Mrs. Postans, Author of "Cutch."
"We notice with much pleasure the opportune appearance of this book. There cannot be a doubt that the present is a critical period in the history of British possessions in India, and it is fortunate to receive at such a time, and in a form that is likely to be popular and attractive, the result of sound reflection, as well of lively and accurate observation, on a subject of incalculable importance to the national interests and honour."--Examiner.
"We need not recommend the work to our readers; it is sure to be read, and it is impossible not to desire to extend the knowledge of a work which all who wish well to England and to India should endeavour to circulate." Colonial Magazine.

In two vols. post 8vo,
THE REAL AND THE IDEAL;
OR, ILLUSTRATIONS OF TRAVEL.
"The author appears to have fused down whole volumes of notes and journals into these pages, in which he not only passes in review all that he has seen or heard among the scenes in which he has moved, but supplies, from the stores of a graceful and accomplished mind, every thing which could be expected to illustrate the subject of his criticism. He has given, in fact, a sort of philosophy of travel."--Naval and Military Gazette.
XV.
In two vols. post 8vo,
TIMON--BUT NOT OF ATHENS.
"This is a singular book, the production unquestionably of a man of strong mind and extensive information, of a man who has read much and reflected more. We have rarely met with a work professing to be, in some respects, one of fancy and fiction, which was at the same time so replete with philosophical truth."--Scotsman.
