reet, Covent Garden. * * * * * {22} THE NEW AND IMPROVED EDITION OF BURKE'S PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE FOR 1853 IS NOW READY, In 1 vol. royal 8vo., comprising as much matter as twenty ordinary volumes, with 1,500 accurate Engravings of Arms. Price 38s. bound. This new and thoroughly revised edition has engaged the author's closest attention for a considerable time. Every line of its voluminous contents has been tested by the most minute research, and every page has been submitted to the members of the various noble and eminent families themselves. Much additional information of the deepest interest has thus been obtained. The collateral branches, too, have been fully investigated and inserted. In addition, great improvements have been made in the Heraldic Illustrations, and arrangement of the printing, &c. Also just published, BURKE'S LANDED GENTRY, CORRECTED FOR 1853, In 2 large vols., including the Supplement, printed in double columns (equal in quantity to thirty ordinary volumes). Price 2l. 2s. bound, with a separate Index, gratis, of all the names (upwards of 100,000) mentioned in the Work. The great expense attending the production of this important and truly national Work will preclude its being again printed in so extended and comprehensive a form, and the present opportunity will consequently be the only one afforded for obtaining it. EVELYN'S DIARY AND CORRESPONDENCE. New Edition, with numerous Additions and Original Letters, now first published, and a copious Index. Complete in 4 volumes, 10s. 6d. each. "This very excellent edition of Evelyn's famous 'Diary' furnishes us with much interesting correspondence never before published. These volumes will be treasures to those who delight in genuine curiosities of literature, while to the student of history they will be invaluable. The work is a necessary companion to the popular histories of our country--to Hume, Hallam, Macaulay, and Lingard."--_Sun._ HORACE WALPOLE'S MEMOIRS. Edited by ELIOT WARBURTON. Cheaper Edition, 2 vols. 8vo. with Portraits, 16s. "The Memoirs of Horace Walpole nearly complete the chain of personal, political, and literary history, commencing with Evelyn and Pepys, and ending almost in our own day with the histories of Mr. Macaulay and Lord Mahon. The work is a necessary addition to the library of every English gentleman."--_Standard._ Pu
