NOTES ON BOOKS, SALES, CATALOGUES, &C.

Mr. Bohn has just published the second volume of his very useful and
complete edition of _Junius' Letters_. It contains, in addition to a new
essay on their authorship, entitled _The History and Discovery of
Junius_, by the editor, Mr. Wade, the Private Letters of Junius
addressed to Woodfall; the Letters of Junius to Wilkes; and the
Miscellaneous Letters which have been attributed to the same powerful
pen. Mr. Wade is satisfied that Sir Philip Francis was Junius; a theory
of which it is said, "Se non e vero e ben trovato:" and, if he does not
go the length of Sir F. Dwarris in regarding Sir P. Francis, not as the
solitary champion, but the most active of the sturdy band of politicians
whose views he advocated, he shows that he was known to and assisted by
many influential members of his own political party. Some of the most
curious points in the Junius history are illustrated by notes by Mr.
Bohn himself, who, we have no doubt will find his edition of Junius
among the most successful volumes of his Standard Library.

We have received the following Catalogues:--W.S. Lincoln's (Cheltenham
