CAREY & LEA
HAVE RECENTLY PUBLISHED THE FOLLOWING
VALUABLE WORKS.

  • The WATER WITCH, or the SKIMMER of
    the SEAS. By the Author of the Pilot, Red Rover, &c. In
    2 vols.

    “We have read the whole of Cooper's forthcoming novel, The Water Witch,
    or Skimmer of the Seas
    . It relates, as its name implies, scenes and exploits of
    naval life; and in our opinion, these are delineated with a deeper interest, and
    a more vigorous spirit than he has exhibited even in that admirable sea-picture,
    the Red Rover. * * * * A chase through the difficult channel of the East River,
    a pursuit at sea, a naval battle and explosion, and the escape of a few persons
    on a raft from the burning vessel, are depicted so as to fix a breathless interest
    at every page. We have no hesitation in classing this among the most powerful
    of the romances of our countryman.”

    U. States Gazette.

    “We have read the whole of Mr. Cooper's new novel, The Water Witch. It is
    another tale of the sea, proving that the author's march is truly `on the mountain
    wave,' and his home `on the deep.' We could not break from the volumes, and
    may predict that they will excite the same interest in the minds of almost every
    reader. The concluding chapters produce intense emotion.”

    National Gazette.

      New Editions of the following Works by the same
      Author.

    • NOTIONS of the AMERICANS, by a Travelling Bachelor,
      2 vols. 12mo.

    • The WISH-TON-WISH, in 2 vols. 12mo.

      “We can conceive few periods better calculated to offer a promising field to
      the novelist than that which these pages illustrate;—the mingling of wildest adventure
      with the most plodding industry—the severe spirit of the religion of the
      first American settlers—the feelings of household and home at variance with all
      earlier associations of country—the magnificence of the scenery by which they
      were surrounded—their neighbourhood to that most picturesque and extraordinary
      of people we call savages;—these, surely, are materials for the novelist, and
      in Mr. Cooper's hands they have lost none of their interest. We shall not attempt
      to detail the narrative, but only say it is well worthy of the high reputation of
      its author.”

  • JOURNAL of the HEART, edited by the
    Authoress of Flirtation.

    “This is a most charming and feminine volume, one delightful for a woman
    to read, and for a woman to have written; elegant language, kind and gentle
    thoughts, a sweet and serious tone of religious feeling run through every page,
    and any extract must do very scanty justice to the merit of the whole, ******
    We most cordially recommend this Journal of the Heart, though we are unable
    to do it justice by any selection of its beauties, which are too intimately interwoven
    to admit of separation.”

    Literary Gazette.

  • The ARMENIANS, a Tale of Constantinople,
    by J. Macfarlane, in 2 vols.

    off by the bold pencil of the author of Anastasius.”

    Edin. Lit. Journ.

  • The YOUNG LADIES' BOOK, a Manual of

    This is a work recently published by Messrs. Vizetelly, Branston & Co. London,
    with upwards of seven hundred embellishments, engraved in a superior
    style on wood. The volume is a duodecimo of more than five hundred pages,
    and sells in England for one guinea. It is intended to make the American edition
    a perfect fac-simile, or as nearly so as practicable in this country, and to afford
    it at $ 4, neatly bound in silk, and elegantly gilt. This work cannot be
    classed as Annual, but may be said to be a Perennial, a suitable memorial for all
    times and seasons. It differs essentially from the whole class of Literary Gifts
    usually presented to Young Ladies, being a complete manual for all those elegant
    pursuits which graee the person and adorn the mind.

  • The POETICAL WORKS of CAMPBELL,
    ROGERS, MONTGOMERY, LAMBE, and KIRKE WHITE,
    beautifully printed, 1 vol. 8vo. to match Byron, Scott, Moore, &c.
    With Portraits of the Authors.

  • The CHEMISTRY of the ARTS, on the Basis
    of Gray's Operative Chemist, being an Exhibition of the
    Arts and Manufactures dependent on Chemical Principles,
    with numerous Engravings, by Arthur L. Porter, M. D.
    late Professor of Chemistry, &c. in the University of Vermont.
    In 8vo. With numerous plates.

    The popular and valuable English work of Mr. Gray, which forms the groundwork
    of the present volume, was published in London in 1829, and designed to
    exhibit a Systematic and Practical view of the numerous Arts and Manufactures
    which involve the application of Chemical Science. The author himself, a
    skilful, manufacturing, as well as an able, scientific chemist, enjoying the multiplied
    advantages afforded by the metropolis of the greatest manufacturing nation
    on earth, was eminently qualified for so arduous an undertaking, and the
    popularity of the work in England, as well as its intrinsic merits attest the
    fidelity and success with which it has been executed. In the work now offered
    to the American public, the practical character of the Operative Chemist has
    been preserved, and much extended by the addition of a great variety of original
    matter, by numerous corrections of the original text, and the adaptation
    of the whole to the state and wants of the Arts and Manufactures of the United
    States; among the most considerable additions will be found full and extended
    treatises on the Bleaching of Cotton and Linen, on the various branches of Calico
    Printing, on the Manufacture of the Chloride of Lime, or Bleaching Powder,
    and numerous Staple Articles used in the Arts of Dying, Calico Printing,
    and various other processes of Manufacture, such as the Salts of Tin, Lead,
    Manganese, and Antimony; the most recent Improvements on the Manufacture
    of the Muriatic, Nitric, and Sulphuric Acids, the Chromates of Potash, the
    latest information on the Comparative Value of Different Varieties of Fuel, on the
    Construction of Stoves, Fire-places, and Stoving Rooms, on the Ventilation of
    Apartments, &c. &c. To make room for the additional practical matter, and
    not to enhance the price of the work to the American reader, between two and
    three hundred pages of the theoretical or doctrinal part of the original work
    have been omitted; indeed, most of the articles on the theory of chemistry, such
    as Electricity, Galvanism, Light, &c. which have little or no immediate application
    to the arts, and which the chemical student will find more fully
    discussed in almost every elementary work on the science, have been either
    wholly omitted or abridged. Many obsolete processes in the practical part of
    the work, used in some instances, the description of arts not practised, and from


    Advertisement

    Page Advertisement
    their nature not likely to be practised in the United States, have also been
    omitted; in short, the leading object has been to improve and extend the practical
    character of the Operative Chemist, and to supply, as the publishers flatter
    themselves, a deficiency which is felt by every artist and manufacturer, whose
    processes involve the principles of chemical science, the want of a Systematic
    Work which should embody the most recent improvements in the chemical
    arts and manufactures, whether derived from the researches of scientific men,
    or the experiments and observations of the operative manufacturer and artizans
    themselves.

  • PATHOLOGICAL and PRACTICAL RESEARCHES
    on DISEASES of the BRAIN and SPINAL
    CORD. By John Abercrombie, M. D. (Nearly ready.)

    “We have here a work of authority, and one which does credit to the author
    and his country.”

    North Amer. Med. and Surg. Journ.

    By the same Author,

    PATHOLOGICAL and PRACTICAL RESEARCHES
    on DISEASES of the STOMACH, the INTESTINAL
    CANAL, the LIVER, and other VISCERA of the
    ABDOMEN.

    “We have now closed a very long review of a very valuable work, and, although
    we have endeavoured to condense into our pages a great mass of important
    matter, we feel that our author has not yet received justice.”

  • A RATIONAL EXPOSITION of the PHYSICAL
    SIGNS of DISEASES of the LUNGS and PLEURA, Illustrating
    their Pathology and Facilitating their Diagnosis. By
    Charles J. Williams, M. D. In 8vo. with plates.

    “If we are not greatly mistaken, it will lead to a better understanding, and a
    more correct estimate of the value of auscultation, than any thing that has yet
    appeared.”

  • ARNOTT'S ELEMENTS of PHYSICS.
    Vol. II. Part I. containing Light and Heat.

  • ELEMENTS of PHYSICS, or NATURAL
    PHILOSOPHY, GENERAL and MEDICAL, explained
    independently of TECHNICAL MATHEMATICS, and containing
    New Disquisitions and Practical Suggestions. By
    Neil Arnott, M. D. First American from the third London
    edition, with additions, by Isaac Hays, M. D.

    *** Of this work four editions have been printed in England in a very short
    time. All the Reviews speak of it in the highest terms.

  • BECLARD'S GENERAL ANATOMY.
    Translated by J. Togno, M. D. 8vo.

  • A TREATISE on FEVER. By Southwood
    Smith,
    M. D. Physician to the London Fever Hospital.

    “There is no man in actual practice in this metropolis, who should not possess
    himself of Dr. Smith's work.”

    Lond. Med. and Surg. Journ. Feb.

    “With a mind so framed to accurate observation, and logical deduction, Dr.
    Smith's delineations are peculiarly valuable.”

    Medico-Chir. Rev. March.

    “No work has been more lauded by the Reviews than the Treatise on Fevers,
    by Southwood Smith. Dr. Johnson, the editor of the Medico-Chirurgical Review,
    says, `It is the best we have ever perused on the subject of fever, and in
    our conscience, we believe it the best that ever flowed from the pen of physician
    in any age or in any country.”'

    Am. Med. Journ.

  • SKETCHES of CHINA, with Illustrations
    from Original Drawings. By W. W. Wood, in 1 vol. 12mo.

    “The residence of the author in China, during the years 1826-7-8 and 9, has
    enabled him to collect much very curious information relative to this singular
    people, which he has embodied in his work; and will serve to gratify the curiosity
    of many whose time or dispositions do not allow them to seek, in the voluminous
    writings of the Jesuits and early travellers, the information contained
    in the present work. The recent discussion relative to the renewal of the East
    India Company's Charter, has excited much interest; and among ourselves, the
    desire to be further acquainted with the subjects of `the Celestial Empire' has
    been considerably augmented.”

  • HISTORY OF ENGLAND,

    By Sir JAMES MACKINTOSH, Vol. I.

    BEING A PORTION OF

    The Cabinet History of the British Islands,

    EMBRACING

    HISTORY of ENGLAND. By Sir James Mackintosh, Vol. I.

    “Our anticipations of this volume were certainly very highly raised, and unlike
    such anticipations in general, they have not been disappointed. A philosophical
    spirit, a nervous style, and a full knowledge of the subject, acquired by
    considerable research into the works of preceding chroniclers and historians,
    eminently distinguish this popular abridgment, and cannot fail to recommend it
    to universal approbation. In continuing his work as he has begun, Sir James
    Mackintosh will confer a great benefit on his country.”

  • HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir Walter Scott, 2 vols.

  • HISTORY of IRELAND. By Thomas Moore, 1 vol.

  • HISTORY of SCOTLAND. By Sir Walter
    Scott,
    Bart, in 2 vols. 12mo.

    The History of Scotland, by Sir Walter Scott, we do not hesitate to declare,
    will be, if possible, more extensively read, than the most popular work of fiction,
    by the same prolific author, and for this obvious reason: it combines much of the
    brilliant colouring of the Ivanhoe pictures of by-gone manners, and all the
    graceful facility of style and picturesqueness of description of his other charming
    romances, with a minute fidelity to the facts of history, and a searching scrutiny
    into their authenticity and relative value, which might put to the blush Mr.
    Hume and other professed historians. Such is the magic charm of Sir Walter
    Scott's pen, it has only to touch the simplest incident of every day life, and it
    starts up invested with all the interest of a scene of romance; and yet such is his
    fidelity to the text of nature, that the knights, and serfs, and collared fools with
    whom his inventive genius has peopled so many volumes, are regarded by us as
    not mere creations of fancy, but as real flesh and blood existences, with all the
    virtues, feelings and errors of common place humanity.”

    comprising Observations on the Arrangements, Police, and

    Military Hospitals—first American from the third London edition,
    with Life of the Author, by his son, Dr. John Hennen.

    “The value of Dr. Hennen's work is too well appreciated to need any praise
    of ours. We were only required then, to bring the third edition before the notice
    of our readers; and having done this, we shall merely add, that the volume
    merits a place in every library, and that no military surgeon ought to be without
    it.”

    Medical Gazette.

    “It is a work of supererogation for us to eulogize Dr. Hennen's Military Surgery;
    there can be no second opinion on its merits. It is indispensable to the military
    and naval surgeon.”

    consequences of this generic disease; by John Macculloch,
    M. D., F. R. S. &c. &c. Physician in Ordinary to his Royal
    Highness Prince Leopold, of Saxe Cobourg.

    “In rendering Dr. Macculloch's work more accessible to the profession, we
    are conscious that we are doing the state some service.”

    Med. Chir. Review.

    “We most strongly recommend Dr. Macculloch's treatise to the attention of
    our medical brethren, as presenting a most valuable mass of information, on a
    most important subject.”

    practitioner, and a text-book for the student, containing a `plain and practical
    digest of the information at present possessed on the subject, and results of the

    “The style of the stories is no less remarkable for its ease and gracefulness,

    than for the delicacy of its humour, and its beautiful and at times affecting simplicity.
    A lady must have written it—for it is from the bosom of woman alone,
    that such tenderness of feeling and such delicacy of sentiment—such sweet lessons
    of morality—such deep and pure streams of virtue and piety, gush forth to
    cleanse the juvenile mind from the grosser impurities of our nature, and prepare
    the young for lives of usefulness here, and happiness hereafter. We advise parents
    of young families to procure this little book—assuring them that it will
    have a tendency to render their offspring as sweet as innocent, as innocent as
    gay, as gay as happy. It is dedicated by the author `to her young Bedford
    friends, Anna and Maria Jay'—but who this fair author is, we cannot even guess.
    We would advise some sensible educated bachelor to find out,”

  • The PRACTICE of PHYSIC, by W. P.
    Dewees, M. D. Adjunct Professor of Midwifery in the University
    of Pennsylvania, 2 vols. 8vo.

    “We have no hesitation in recommending it as decidedly one of the best
    systems of medicine extant. The tenor of the work in general reflects the highest
    honour on Dr. Dewees's talents, industry, and capacity, for the execution of
    the arduous task which he had undertaken. It is one of the most able and
    satisfactory works which modern times have produced, and will be a standard
    authority.'

    Lond. Med. and Surg. Journ. Aug. 1830.

  • DEWEES on the DISEASES of CHILDREN.
    Third edition. In 8vo.

    The objects of this work are, 1st, to teach those who have the charge of children,
    either as parent or guardian, the most approved methods of securing and
    improving their physical powers. This is attempted by pointing out the duties
    which the parent or the guardian owes for this purpose, to this interesting,
    but helpless class of beings, and the manner by which their duties shall be fulfilled.
    And 2d, to render available a long experience to these objects of our affections,
    when they become diseased. In attempting this, the author has avoided
    as much as was possible, “technicality;” and has given, if he does not flatter himself
    too much, to each disease of which he treats, its appropriate and designating
    characters, with a fidelity that will prevent any two being confounded, together
    with the best mode of treating them, that either his own experience or
    that of others has suggested.

    It fills a blank in the historical library which ought not to have remained so
    long a blank. The language throughout is at once chaste and animated; and
    the narrative may be said, like Spencer's Fairy Queen, to present one long gallery
    of splendid pictures. Indeed, we know no pages from which the artist is
    more likely to derive inspiration, nor perhaps are there many incidents in literary
    history more surprising than that this antique and chivalrous story should
    have been for the first time told worthily by the pen of an American and a republican.”

    Medical Formulary, being a collection of prescriptions derived
    from the writings and practice of many of the most eminent
    physicians in America and Europe. By Benjamin Ellis,
    M. D. 2d edition, with additions.

    “A small and very useful volume has been recently published in this city, entitled
    `The Medical Formulary.' We believe that this volume will meet with a
    cordial welcome from the medical public. We would especially recommend it
    to our brethren in distant parts of the country, whose insulated situations may
    prevent them from having access to the many authorities which have been consulted
    in arranging materials for this work.”
