'In matters of reprints, such as this is, it is always well to retain as much as possible the old spelling, and the old form of printing. By this means we are constantly reminded that we are reading a seventeenth century writer and not a nineteenth; and hence students will apply more checks to their process of reasoning than they might be inclined to do if the book were printed in modern form. This is, we are glad to say, applicable to the present excellent reprint, which is issued in old spelling, and contains in the margin the figures of the pagination of the first edition.'

THE ANTIQUARY, October 1881. 'We have received from Mr. James Thornton, of Oxford, an excellent reprint of Hobbes's Leviathan.' The book is one which is not always easy to obtain; and a satis factory reprint at a reasonable price may do more to advance the knowledge of Hobbes's philosophy than one of the condensed handbooks which are now extensively popular.' WESTMINSTER REVIEW, January 1882.

REMARKS on the USE and ABUSE of SOME POLITICAL TERMS. By the late Right Hon. Sir GEORGE CORNEWALL LEwis, Bart., sometime Student of Christ Church, Oxford. A New Edition, with Notes and Appendix. By Sir ROLAND KNYVET WILSON, Bart., M.A., Barrister-at-Law; late Fellow of King's College, Cambridge; Author of 'History of Modern English Law." Crown 8vo. 6s.

FROM THE EDITOR'S PREFACE.

'The value of the book for educational purposes consists not so much in its positive results, as in the fact that it opens a vein of thought which the student may usefully follow out to any extent for himself, and that it affords an instructive example of a thoughtful, scientific, and in the best sense academical style of treating political questions.

With regard to my own annotations, the object which I have chiefly kept in view has been to direct attention to such later writings as have expressly undertaken to fix the scientific meaning of the political terms here discussed, and above all "Austin's Lectures on Jurisprudence," to which the present work may be considered as a kind of companion volume.' QUESTIONS and EXERCISES in POLITICAL ECONOMY,

with References to Adam Smith, Ricardo, John Stuart Mill, Fawcett,
Thorold Rogers, Bonamy Price, Twiss, Senior, Macleod, and others.
Adapted to the Oxford Pass and Honour and the Cambridge Ordinary
B.A. Examinations. Arranged and edited by W. P. EMERTON, M.A.,
B.C.L., Christ Church, Oxford. Crown 8vo. cloth, 3s. 6d.

This volume consists of Questions mainly taken from various Examination Papers with references in the case of the easier questions, and hints, and in some cases formal statements of the arguments pro and con. to the more difficult questions. There are also two Appendixes on the debated questions Is Political Economy a Science?' and 'Is Political Economy Selfish?'

A SERIES OF HANDBOOKS TO EXAMINATIONS.

Edited by F. S. PULLING, M.A., Exeter College.

THE object of this Series is to guide Students in their reading for the different examinations. The amount of time wasted at present, simply through ignorance of the way to read, is so great that the Editor and Authors feel convinced of the necessity for some such handbooks, and they trust that these Guides will at least do something to prevent in the future the misapplication of so much industry.

Each volume will be confined to one branch of study, and will include an account of the various Scholarships and Prizes offered by the University or the Colleges in its department; and will be undertaken by a writer whose experience qualifies him to speak with authority on the subject.

The books will contain extracts from the University Statutes relating to the Examinations, with an attempt to explain them as they exist, and advice as to what to read and how to read; how to prepare subjects for examination, and how to answer papers; a few specimen questions, extracts from the Regulations of the Board of Studies, and a list of books.

THEOLOGY. By the Rev. F. H. WOODS, B.D., Fellow of St. John's College. Crown 8vo. cloth, 2s. 6d.
