General BEAUCHAMP WALKER says of this work :-"I recommend the first two numbers of Colonel von Verdy’s 'Studies' to the attentive perusal of my brother officers. They supply a which I have often felt during my service in this country, namely, a minuter tactical detail of the minor operations of the war than any but the most observant and fortunately placed staff officer is in a position to give. I have read and re-read them very carefully, I hope with profit, certainly with great interest, and believe that practice, in the sense of these 'Studies,' would be a valuable preparation for manoeuvres on a more extended scale."-Berlin, June, 1872.

SONGS OF TWO WORLDS. By a NEW WRITER. Fcap. 8vo, cloth, 5s.

"The New Writer' is certainly no tyro. No one after reading the first two poems, almost perfect in rhythm and all the graceful reserve of true lyrical strength, can doubt that this book is the result of lengthened thought and assiduous training in poetical form.

These poems will assuredly take high rank among the class to which they belong." British Quarterly Review, April 1st.

"No extracts could do justice to the exquisite tones, the felicitous phrasing and delicately wrought harmonies of some of these poems."-Nonconformist, March 27th.

"Are we in this book making the acquaintance of a fine and original poet, or of a most artistic imitator? And our deliberate opinion is that the former hypothesis is the right one. It has a purity and delicacy of feeling like morning air."-Graphic, March 16th.

'If these poems are the mere preludes of a mind growing in power and in inclination for verse, we have in them the promise of a fine poet. The verse describing Socrates has the highest note of critical poetry."-Spectator, Feb. 17th.

EROS AGONISTES. By E.
B. D. Crown 8vo, 3s. 6d.

"The author of these verses has written a very touching story of the human heart in the story he tells with such pathos and power, of an affection cherished so long and so secretly.

It is not the least merit of these pages that they are everywhere illumined with moral and religious sentiment suggested, not paraded, of the brightest, purest character."-Standard.

THE LEGENDS OF ST. PATRICK, & OTHER POEMS. By AUBREY DE VERE. Crown 8vo, 5s.

"We have marked, in almost every page, excellent touches from which we know not how to select. We have but space to commend the varied structure of his verse, the carefulness of his grammar, and his excellent English. All who believe that poetry should raise and not debase the social ideal, all who think that wit should exalt our standard of thought and manners, must welcome this contribution at once to our knowledge of the past and to the science of noble life.Saturday Review.
