<span class="large">By <span class="smcap">John Ruskin</span>, LL.D.</span></h2>
<p>“<i>I say we have despised literature; what do we, as a nation, care
about books? How much do you think we spend altogether on our
libraries, public or private, as compared with what we spend on our
horses? If a man spends lavishly on his library, you call him mad—a
bibliomaniac. But you never call one a horse-maniac, though men
ruin themselves every day by their horses, and you do not hear of people
ruining themselves by their books. Or, to go lower still, how much do
you think the contents of the book-shelves of the United Kingdom, public
and private, would fetch, as compared with the contents of its wine-cellars?
What position would its expenditure on literature take as compared
with its expenditure on luxurious eating? We talk of food for
the mind, as of food for the body: now, a good book contains such food
inexhaustible: it is provision for life, and for the best part of us; yet
how long most people would look at the best book before they would give
the price of a large turbot for it! Though there have been men who
have pinched their stomachs and bared their backs to buy a book, whose
libraries were cheaper to them, I think, in the end, than most men’s
dinners are. We are few of us put to such a trial, and more the pity;
for, indeed, a precious thing is all the more precious to us if it has been
won by work or economy; and if public libraries were half as costly as
public dinners, or books cost the tenth part of what bracelets do, even
foolish men and women might sometimes suspect there was good in reading
as well as in munching and sparkling; whereas the very cheapness
of literature is making even wiser people forget that if a book is worth
reading it is worth buying.</i>”—<span class="smcap">Sesame and Lilies; or, King’s

<h3><i>Belgravia Magazine.</i></h3>
<p><i>That the purpose with which “BELGRAVIA” was originated has been
fulfilled, is shown by the popularity that has attended it since its first appearance.
Aiming, as may be inferred from its name, at supplying the most
refined and cultivated section of London society with intellectual pabulum suited
to its requirements, it sprang at once into public favour, and has since remained
one of the most extensively read and widely circulated of periodicals. In passing
into new hands it has experienced no structural change or modification. Increased
energy and increased capital have been employed in elevating it to the
highest standard of excellence, but all the features that had won public appreciation
have been retained, and the Magazine still seeks its principal support in the
homes of Belgravia. As the means through which the writer most readily reaches
the heart of the general public, and in consequence as the most important of aids
in the establishment of morals and the formation of character, fiction still remains
a principal feature in the Magazine. Two Serial Stories accordingly run through
its pages; supplemented by short Stories, Novelettes, and narrative or dramatic
Sketches: whilst Essays, Social, Biographical, and Humorous; Scientific Discoveries
brought to the level of popular comprehension, and treated with a light
touch; Poetry, of the highest character; and records of Adventure and Travel,
form the remaining portion of the contents. Especial care is now bestowed
upon the illustrations, of which no fewer than four appear in each number.
Beyond the design of illustrating the article they accompany, these aim at maintaining
a position as works of art, both as regards drawing and engraving.
In short, whatever claims the Magazine before possessed to favour have now been
enhanced, and the Publishers can but leave the result to a public that has seldom
failed to appreciate all earnest, persistent, and well-directed efforts for its amusement
and benefit.</i></p>

<p>“<i>Mr. Cussans has, from sources not accessible to Clutterbuck, made most
valuable additions to the manorial history of the county from the earliest period
downwards, cleared up many doubtful points, and given original details concerning
various subjects untouched or imperfectly treated by that writer. The
pedigrees seem to have been constructed with great care, and are a valuable addition
to the genealogical history of the county. Mr. Cussans appears to have done
his work conscientiously, and to have spared neither time, labour, nor expense to
render his volumes worthy of ranking in the highest class of County Histories.</i>”—<span class="smcap">Academy.</span></p>

<p><i>In seeking to restore the “GENTLEMAN’S MAGAZINE” to the position
it formerly held, the Publishers do not lose sight of the changed conditions
under which it now appears. While maintaining an historical continuity which
dates back to the reign of George the Second, there will be no attempt to burden
the present with the weight of a distant past, or to adhere slavishly to traditions
the application of which is unsuited to the altered conditions of society at the
present time. It is sought to render the Magazine to the gentleman of to-day
what in earlier times it proved to the gentleman of a past generation. New
features will be introduced to take the place of those which disappear; in the
most important respects, however, the connecting links between the present and
the past will be closest. Biography and History, which have always formed a
conspicuous portion of the contents, will retain the prominence assigned them,
and will be treated with the added breadth that springs from increased familiarity
with authorities and more exact appreciation of the province of the
Biographer and the Historian. Science, which confers upon the age special
eminence, will have its latest conclusions and forecasts presented in a manner
which shall bring them within the grasp of the general reader. The philosophical
aspect of Politics, the matters which affect Imperial interests, will be
separated from the rivalries of party, and will receive a due share of attention.
Archæology (under which comprehensive head may be included Genealogy, Topography,
and other similar matters), Natural History, Sport and Adventure,
Poetry, Belles Lettres, Art in all its manifestations, will constitute a portion
of the contents; and Essays upon social subjects will, as heretofore, be interspersed.
Under the head of Table Talk matters of current interest will be
discussed, and facts of historic value will be preserved. A Work of Fiction by
some novelist of highest position will run through the pages of the Magazine,
and will be illustrated by artists of known excellence. With a full sense of
what is involved in their promise, and with a firm resolution to abide by their
pledges, the Publishers undertake to spare no exertion that is necessary to secure
the highest class of contributions, to place the Magazine in the first rank of
serials, and to fit it to take its place on the table and on the shelves of all classes
of cultivated Englishmen.</i></p>

Mr. Moyr Smith’s illustrations, too, are admirable. Look at that
white rabbit. Anyone would see at the first glance that he is a rabbit with a
mind, and a very uncommon mind too—that he is a fairy rabbit, and that he is
posing as chief adviser to some one—without reading even a word of the story.
Again, notice the fairy-like effect of the little picture of the fairy-bird ‘Don’t-forget-me,’
flying away back into fairy-land. A more perfectly dream-like impression
of fairy-land has hardly been given in any illustration of fairy tales

<p>“<i>The great charm of the book lies in the clever and artistic way the dialogue
is managed, and the diverse and various expedients by which, whilst the love of
thought on every page is kept at a high pitch, it never loses its realistic aspect....
It is giving high praise to a work of this sort to say that it absolutely
needs to be taken as a whole, and that disjointed extracts here and there would
entirely fail to convey any idea of the artistic unity, the careful and conscientious
sequence of what is evidently the brilliant outcome of much patient thought and
study.... Enough has now been said to recommend these volumes to any
reader who desires something above the usual novel, something which will open
up lanes of thought in his own mind, and insensibly introduce a higher standard
into his daily life.... Here is novelty indeed, as well as originality, and
to anyone who can appreciate or understand ‘The New Republic’ it cannot
fail to be a rare treat.</i>”—<span class="smcap">Observer.</span></p>

these to a large extent of a slightly artificial character. This volume will serve to
show him in other, and certainly as attractive, aspects, while, at the same time,
enabling us to a considerable extent to see how faithfully he developed himself on
the poetical or fanciful side.... This is a book which claims, as it ought to
obtain, various classes of readers, and we trust that the very mixed elements of
interest in it may not conflict with its obtaining them. For the lightest reader

<p>“<i>To Messrs. Chatto and Windus belongs the merit of having done more to
facilitate the critical study of the text of our great dramatist than all the Shakespeare
clubs and societies put together. A complete facsimile of the celebrated
First Folio edition of 1623 for half-a-guinea is at once a miracle of cheapness and
enterprise. Being in a reduced form, the type is necessarily rather diminutive,
but it is as distinct as in a genuine copy of the original, and will be found to be as
useful and far more handy to the student than the latter.</i>”—<span class="smcap">Athenæum.</span></p>

<p>“<i>It would have been a real loss to bibliographical literature had copyright
difficulties deprived the general public of this very amusing collection. One of
Thackeray’s habits, from his schoolboy days, was to ornament the margins and
blank pages of the books he had in use with caricature illustrations of their
contents. This gave special value to the sale of his library, and is almost cause
for regret that it could not have been preserved in its integrity. Thackeray’s
place in literature is eminent enough to have made this an interest to future
generations. The anonymous editor has done the best that he could to compensate
for the lack of this. It is an admirable addendum, not only to his collected
works, but also to any memoir of him that has been, or that is likely to be,
written.</i>”—<span class="smcap">British Quarterly Review.</span></p>
