(Revue EncYCLOPEDIQUE-continued.) " This very interesting and valuable periodical appears to be conducted with much spirit and liberal feeling. In its plan, it resembles our Monthly Review, but is on a much more enlarged scale.”The Literary Chronicle.

“ of the numerous periodical Journals published on the continent, the Revue Encyclopédique unquestionably takes the head. It embraces the whole circle, not only of literature but of the sciences and arts, and furnishes every month a review of about 150 works.”—The Monthly Review.

« We have often laid before the British public extracts from the Revue Encyclopédique, one of the best, perhaps the very best periodical work at the present published in France. We recommend it in particular to those who desire to take a French periodic cal, as the best and the most useful they can order."- The Monthly Magasine.

“ Revista Encyclopedica. Recomiendo encarecidamente el periodico que se publica en Paris con este título. Los redactores son los literatos mas distinguidos de Francia." -Correo literario y político.

“ Revue Encyclopédique. Ce recueil occupe le premier rang parmi le grand nombre d'ouvrages périodiques, publiés tant en France qu'en Angleterre et en Allemagne."Journal d'agriculture des Pays Bas.

“ La Revue Encyclopédique est désormais pour le monde civilisé, ce qu'est la tribune du parlement d'Angleterre pour le monde politique.”—Journal d'Anvers.

" De tous les journaux littéraires et scientifiques publiés aujourd'hui en France, la Revue Encyclopédique nous parait le plus remarquable, et par la quantité des matières qu'il embrasse, et par la manière lumineuse dont elles sont traitées, et par le talent de ses rédacteurs."- Le Phare du Havre.

“ La Revue Encyclopédique, connue depuis près de huit années, peut être comparée même avec avantage sous quelques rapports, à la revue justement célèbre d'Edinburgh." -Le Constitutionnel.

" Ce recueil est un ouvrage de bonne foi, un journal central de la civilisation, un Doble et utile monument, honorable pour la France."-Le Pilote.

" Le Globe is the most original, the most talented, the most philosophical, and the best edited of the French literary journals.”- London Weekly Review.

“ The Editors of Le Globe have given, during the last three years, repeated proofs of talent, integrity, and independence.”—Monthly Review,

“ The spirit with which Le Globe is conducted, the eminent talent that is conspicuous in its pages, and, above all, the impartial tone of its politics and morals, entitle it to that attention amongst us which it has already attained in its own country."— Blackwood's Magazine.

“ On doit louer les redacteurs du Globe de n'avoir épousé aucune coterie, de ne s'être enrolés dans aucun partie. La critique chez eux laisse de coté l'auteur, et ne voit que l'ouvrage. C'est dans ces temps ci un exemple de justice beaucoup trop rare chez les journalistes.” -Revue Encyclopedique.

NEW DRAWING-BOOK.

' DEDICATED WITH PERMISSION TO HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE

DUCHESS OF KENT.

In the month of June, 1828, will be published, SERIES of PRACTICAL INSTRUCTIONS in LAND. f

SCAPE-PAINTING in WATER-COI OURS: containing Directions for Sketching from nature, and the Application of Perspective; Progressize Lessons in Drawing, from the tinted Sketcb to the finished Subject ; and Examples of the Introduction of Figures, Architectural Subjects, particular Effects, &c. as connected with Landscape-Scenery. By JOHN CLARK.' Complete in Four Parts. Illustrated by Fifty-five Views from Nature, Descriptive Objects, &c.

This work is the result of long experience, the Author having been engaged more than thirty years in the study and practice of the Art; it is therefore hoped that the Instructions it contains are such as will facilitate a knowledge of Drawing, and at the same time inculcate a pure taste in this delightful amusement.

All the views are mounted separately on drab-coloured card-board, in imitation of Drawings, so that the members of the must numerous family, or indeed fifty-five per. GODS, might be occupied in inspecting or copying from them at the same time, without inconvenience ; an advantage which does not pertain to any Drawing-Book hitherto published.

The Views, together with the Four Parts of descriptive Letter-press, are all contained in a strong and handsome box, covered with leather, and resembling a royal 4to. volume ; thus presenting an elegent appearance either on the library-shelf or the parlour-table.

The great expense which has been incurred in this Publication must necessarily render the price higher than that of the ordinary Drawing-Books; but it is trusted that this will not be deemed unreasonable, when the labour of the Author, the Number of the Views, and the Style of Execution, are taken into consideration. The object of the Publisher has been to produce a complete Work, and to render it worthy of the distinguished patronage under which he has the honour of submitting it to the Public.

The price of the Work will be Six Guineas; a sum which does not exceed what is usually paid to a Drawing-Master for twelve lessons.
