The manufacture of this Ink is conducted by them on sound Chemical Principles, under the personal supervision of an eminent Chemist, a Fellow of the Royal Society, who, for many years, has given his attention and research to the perfecting of Letterpress Ink.

This Ink possesses the property of keeping the Roller in good working order, so as never to loose the grip. It distributes freely-works sharp and clean-washes easily off the types-dries readily on paper, and sets off but little. Colour deep and permanent, never changing to brown.

It does not skin in the barrel or dry on the roller, and is entirely divested of that unpleasant effluvium so injurious to the health of the workmen. Scottish Chemical Works, Leith, 1851.

J. BARRETT AND CO.. As Agents for England, having now had several months' experience in the sale of the above Inks, have every confidence in further introducing them to the notice of the Trade, as fully bearing out, in every respect, the recommendation of the manufacturers as given above.

THE author of "The Ogilvies" has just ready, "The Head of the Family," a new novel, in 3 vols. ; likewise, a Christmas five-shilling book, with illustrations, entitled "Alice Learmont: a Fairy Tale.' UNDER the novel and significant title of "The Wide, Wide World," a tale will be published on the 12th instant, edited by a Clergyman of the Church of England.

THACKERAY'S new novel will not appear until January; the simultaneous publication of this work in America has been secured by the Messrs. Harper and Brothers.-Mr. Murray announces for the 18th inst. the publication of the first two volumes of the Grenville Papers.-Mr. Bartlett's publishers have added to the list of that gentleman's popular and tastefully-illustrated gift-books on the Holy Land, &c., a volume which promises to equal the success of any of its predecessors, entitled "Footsteps of Our Lord and His Apostles."-The Religious Tract Society announce for the commencement of the new year, the first number of "The Leisure Hour: a Family Journal of Instruction and Entertainment."

P. R. James has cemented his connection with American literature by publishing a new work of fiction conjointly with Mr. Maunsell B. Field, of New York; each author writing a chapter alternately, it is announced under the title of Adrian; or, The Clouds of the Mind." "Aims and Obstacles," a novel, is likewise announced by Mr. James in America: it was, we believe, published anonymously, some years back, in this country.
