NOTES ON BOOKS, CATALOGUES, SALES, ETC.

The Devices and Mottoes of the later Middle Ages (_Die Devisen und
Motto des Spaeteren Mittelalters, von J.V. Radowitz_), just imported
by Messrs. Williams and Norgate, is one of those little volumes which
such of our readers as are interested in the subject to which it
relates should make a note of. They will, in addition to many novel
instances of Devices, Mottoes, Emblems, &c., find much curious
learning upon the subjects, and many useful bibliographical
references.

Messrs. Sotheby and Wilkinson still sell, on Saturday next, the very
beautiful collection of Oriental Manuscripts of the late Dr. Scott;
on Monday and Tuesday, his Medical Library; on Wednesday, his
valuable Collection of Music; and on Thursday, his Philosophical and
Mathematical Instruments, Fire-arms, and other miscellaneous objects
of interest.
