The plates in this work are double the size of those in the largest of the Annuals, and have been carefully engraved by the first artists, under the direction of William and Edward Finden. As it is splendidly bound in morocco, richly and appropriately embellished after a design by CORBOULD, it forms decidedly the most magnificent and attractive annual ever published.

"An Annual of the same class to which the Flowers of Loveliness' and Gems of Beauty' belong, and it is superior to both in its plan and execution."-Spectator.

"Every one of the engravings is worth the notice of the collector, and the whole form a charming portfolio: the binding is so rich and tasteful as to merit a distinct notice."-Atlas. "This addition to the list of Annuals, is a pearl richer than all its tribe."-Court Journal.

"Mr. DANIELL has thrown around most of his scenes every charm that truth and nature admitted of."-Court Journal.

"Nor do we doubt of the present work, from the great interest belonging to its subjects, from the ability with which these are treated, and the splendid manner in which it is got up, becoming one of the most popular; for assuredly it will be among the most perma. nently useful Annuals yet published."-Monthly Review.

"In Eastern lands they talk in flowers,

And they tell in a garland their loves and cares;
Each blossom that blooms in their garden bowers,
On its leaves a mystic language bears."

DESIGNED AND

This work teaches the eloquent language referred to in the above beautiful lines. As in the East, so in the fair island of Britain, "flowers are here made to speak the language of sentiment."

"This is a charming little book. Engravings of groups of the most beloved, the most popular, and the most poetical are very neatly and accurately coloured, and interspersed with fanciful and elegant descriptions and analogies, illustrated by quotations from the wide range of English poetry, and from whatever has been most gracefully and fondly said of those darlings of nature."-Tait's Mag.

"One of the prettiest little books we have seen. It contains twelve coloured engravings, a neatly told biography, if we may use the term, of each flower-all the graceful anecdotes connected with them, and some very beautiful and appropriate poetical quotations. It teaches too

All that token flowers can tell,

What words can never speak so well,'

"Well, if we were a young lady, we would neither write nor receive a billet-doux, save in the shape of a bouquet."-Court Journal.

J. D. HARDING'S WORKS.

In Imperial folio, half morocco, price £6. 68.

SKETCHES

AT HOME AND ABROAD.

This very beautiful Work consists of Sixty Views of the most interesting Scenes, selected from a large collection of Foreign and Domestic Sketches made by Mr. HARDING, and executed by him in Lithography, in exact imitation of the original drawings, as they were made upon the spot, with Black Lead Pencil on tinted paper. The only addition to the original Sketches, which were made with scrupulous accuracy, being the introduction of appropriate objects, and figures in correct costume, thus improving the compositions of the subjects as well as adding national character to local interest.

In the "SKETCHES AT HOME AND ABROAD," Mr. HARDING has applied a new mode of his own for introducing the whites in printing instead of laying them on with the pencil. By this process a lasting effect is produced; the tints thus obtained being permanent and free from the liability to dinginess, which has hitherto been such a fatal objection to their production in the usual manner.

The collection embraces so great a variety of subjects, effects, and compositions, that it forms a series of examples of great service to the student and the amateur, and a complete illustration of the Author's Treatise on the Black Lead Pencil.

MR. HARDING'S NEW WORK.

HARDING'S

PORTFOLIO;

A Series of Twenty-four highly-finished Sketches, tinted in exact imitation of the original Drawings.

The improvements recently made in Lithography, particularly in the process of introducing the whites, enabling Mr. HARDING to give to his published Sketches all the appearance of Drawings. As the Sketches have been wholly drawn on stone by Mr. Harding's own hand, they thus POSSESS ALL THE VALUE AND INTEREST OF THE

ORIGINALS.

The work is illustrated by twenty-eight Lithographic Drawings by Mr. HARDING, and he has followed as nearly as possible the course which his experience in actual instruction has suggested to him.
