The latest offshoot of the tree of scientific knowledge, Prehistoric Archæology, has struck a firm root in the soil of public interest, and gives signs of vigorous and fruitful life. . . . . Among the miscellaneous papers here brought together, as well as in the controversial remarks which they were the means of eliciting, there is much matter of the highest interest and value. An Association which has brought out already such an amount of industry and talent amongst its members, may be congratulated on its prospects of continued and increasing success.' SATURDAY REVIEW.

Editor of the Quarterly Journal of Science;' President of the Liverpool Operative Trades' Hall. Mr. SAMUELSON's book is conceived throughout in an excellent spirit. It contains a vast amount of information, and there is not a working man in England who will fail to profit by carefully reading and studying it. FROM THE BUILDER. These instructive particulars as to German workmen do not seem to have been written with the exclusive view of running down the British workman, and running up the foreigners; but they show wherein our own workmen may well take a lesson from them, both by following and by avoiding their example. man. FROM THE ARCHITECT. Mr. JAMES SAMUELSON is well acquainted with the habits and feelings of the English working His association with workmen as President of the Liverpool Operative Trades' Hall enables him to speak with authority upon the subject he has taken in hand in this interesting little volume. The Author is a true friend of his fellow-workers, whom he would wish to see sober, steady, thrifty, and well-informed in their several handicrafts. FROM ENGINEERING. Many such efficient and profitable aids to self-help for the benefit of the working classes exist throughout Germany, and Mr. SAMUELSON has done good service in describing them so well and fully as he has done. FROM THE WEEKLY DISPATCH. Now that Trades Unions have obtained legai recognition among us, it will be generally allowed that their organisation should be such as to benefit, in the most effectual manner possible, those composing them, and indirectly the community at large; all information purporting to aid so desirable an end, therefore, deserves careful consideration, and the unpretending volume before us is valuable from the comparison it enables us to make between the efforts for social amelioration in Germany and those among ourselves.
