[blocks in formation]

With Abstracts of the more important papers; authentic accounts of all scientific voyages and expeditions; Original Papers and Poems by distinguished writers; Criticisms on Art; Critical Notices of Exhibitions, New Prints, New Music, the Opera, Concerts, Theatres, &c.; Biographical Notices of Distinguished Men; with Miscellanea, including all that is likely to interest the informed and intelligent.

Published every Saturday, in London, and may be ordered of all Booksellers.

The Athenæum is confined exclusively to subjects connected with Literature, Science, and Arts; and each yearly volume, complete in itself, forms a perfect history, for the period, of all that is of permanent interest to the intelligent. It places the reader, however far distant, on an equality, in point of information, with the best-informed circles of the metropolis, and is therefore an invaluable present to friends abroad.

The Numbers for January and February, 1832, having been reprinted, the Volume for the last year may still be had. It contains Reviews, with copious extracts, of 457 volumes, with short but sufficient criticisms on 558 other volumes, in addition to the Reports of the Societies, Original Papers and Poems, etc. etc.
