edition, 2 vols. 8vo. cloth
1894
"The Compendious character of The Forrester" therefore fits it to become the
companion of the country gentleman as well as of the timber dealer. Mr. Nisbet is to
be congratulated on the amount of minute pains which he has expended on every point
treated in these two handsome volumes. A good Index and numerous illustrations
render them still more valuable.

"The value of The Forrester" as a practical manual of growing and disposing of
timber is extreme.

"Sir Walter Scott's plantations were the delight of his leisure. Any book which, like "The Forrester,' largely contributes to extending this rustic taste, and there by increasing the happiness of country-dwellers, is much to be commended. To sit under the trees which a man himself has planted is to realize one side of Paradise:

"Without doubt the most important feature of the Congress was the new international geological map, which has been under course of preparation in Berlin since the Congress meeting of 1881, and is now exhibited for the first time. A Report on its progress was read by Dr. Hauchecorne, of Berlin. The topographical groundwork bas been prepared by Kilpert, to scale 1: 1,500,000; the system of geological colouring followed has been most successful, and the Congress has certainly every reason to be satisfied with the result of the co-operation of the various surveys and societies to produce an international map. The whole map will contain forty-nine sheets; only six are now ready for issue, including the North-west part of Europe, Northern Germany, with parts of France, Belgium, Poland, etc. The next part, to be issued within a year, will contain ten sheets, and will include the British Isles, France, Spain and Portugal, Italy, and Switzerland. Some difficulty has arisen in regard to the older palæozoic rocks of various districts, and also as to the method of showing the Quaternary beds. It is now settled that solid rocks, where their distribution is known, will be shown by thin bands of colour over the general colour for Quaternary beds.

"The subscription for the entire map is £4, but this can be paid in instalments as the various parts are published. The proportion for the first part will be 10s; and after December, 1894, the subscription price will be raised.”—Nature, September 20th, 1894. 330 GIBBON'S History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire; with notes by Milman and Guizot, edited by W.
