THE

BRITISH BOTANIST:

or,

A Familiar Introduction to the Science of

Botany,

Explaining the Physiology of Vegetation, and the Principles both of the artificial and natural Systems of Linnæus, and also the Arrangement of Jussieu ; to which is added, a Synopsis, or View of the British Genera; in which the Derivation and Meaning of the Name of each Genus are given, the whole intended chiefly for the Use of Young Persons.

In 12mo. illustrated with 15 plates, price 7s. 6d. in boards, or with the plates coloured, 10s. 6d. "In this Treatise we have one of the most unexceptionable preliminary guides that has fallen within the range of our cognizance; for it is perspicuous without prolixity, correct without pedantic formality, and comprehensive without intricacy or irrelevant discussion. Altogether, therefore, this publication promises to conduct the young ladies and gentlemen of our island into the Temple of Flora, without a greater expenditure of trouble or effort than they often bestow on the most frivolous amusements."

Monthly Review for Dec. 1821.

The Author of "Time's Telescope," in the VoJume for 1822, also says, "It is far more comprehensive than other introductory books on this subject hitherto published."

Meditations

on

THE SCRIPTURES;

Chiefly addressed to Young Persons, on the Importance of Religious Principles and Conduct.

By the Rev. RICHARD WALOND, A.M. Rector of Weston under Penyard, and Treasure of the Cathedral Church of Hereford. "These Meditations are full of wisdom and piety, and appear extremely well calculated for warming the hearts of the young, and inspiring them with the love of virtue. Those on the Life and Character of Jesus,' possess many beauties, and will be read with delight both by old and young." Scottish Episcopal Review and Magazine, March, 1822.

THE

OLD TESTAMENT,

Arranged on the Basis of Lightfoot's Chronicle, in Historical and Chronological Order, in such Manner, that the Books, Chapters, Psalms, Prophecies, &c. may be read as one connected History, in the very Words of the Authorized Translation. To the above are added Six Indexes.

By the Rev. GEORGE TOWNSEND, M.A.
Of Trinity College, Cambridge.

In Two very large Volumes, 8vo. 11. 16s. Extract from Mr. Horne's new Edition of his Introduction to the Critical Study of the Holy Scriptures, vol. ii. page 502, and Supplement to the first edition, page 139.

"The writer of these pages, on the completion of the present work, proposed to himself to attempt a harmony of the entire Bible. This laborious undertaking has happily been rendered unnecessary as it respects the Old Testament, by Mr. Townsend's Arrangement. This beautifully printed, and carefully executed work, is indispensably necessary to those who are preparing for the sacred office. The notes are very appropriate, and possess the rare merit of compressing a great variety of valuable information into a small compass."

"The reader needs not be told that this is a learned work, but he has no occasion to apprehend that it is a work intended only for scholars and professed theologians. The passages extracted, will be sufficient to show, that the author has used his talents so skilfully that the full strength of his argument may be appreciated by any man of common understanding, and ordinary attention."
