V.
HUMBOLDT'S COSMOS.
Cosmos: a General Survey of the Physical Phenomena
of the Universe. By Alexander Von Humboldt. From the
Fourth German Edition. 8vo. Muslin gilt. To be completed
in Four Numbers. Two now published.
The work contains the latest results of the sciences and the last conclusions
drawn from them upon the mind and understanding of a great philosopher.
The work is one of the finest and most finished blossoms which
the cultivation of natural sciences has ever produced.—Broadway Journal.
This work, therefore, will be henceforth the text-book of all who would
learn how nature has herself unfolded the story of her birth, and how
those she nourished by her truths have recorded what she taught.—London
Critic.
