g of the Society in Southwark early in the month of February, and to exhibit upon the occasion a collection of such objects of antiquarian interest relating to Surrey as may be contributed for that purpose. Parties are invited to favour the Society with the loan of such objects. BOOKS RECEIVED.--_A Peep at the Pixies, or Legends of the West_, by Mrs. Bray: written for the entertainment of a family circle, these amusing records of the doings of the little people will find favour with all lovers of folk lore.--_Ada's Thoughts, or the Poetry of Youth_, may be commended for its natural, simple, yet elevated tone.--_Essay on Human Happiness_, by C. B. Adderley, M.P.; the first of a series of _Great Truths for Thoughtful Hours_. A set of little books similar in object and design to Pickering's well-known series of _Small Books on Great Subjects_.--_Beauties of Byron, Verse and Prose._ This selection, made for Murray's _Railway Reading_, will be acceptable to many who would object to place the collected edition of the noble bard's writings in the hands of the younger members of their family.--_Speeches on Parliamentary Reform_, by the Right Hon. T. B. Macaulay. This new number of Longman's _Traveller's Library_ is well-timed, and very acceptable. * * * * * BOOKS AND ODD VOLUMES WANTED TO PURCHASE.
