    Mr. Mayhew's London 'LKEOVBi—{Continued). Comfc nion volume to the preceding, THE CRIMINAL PRISONS OF LONDON, and Scenes of Prison Life. By Henry Mayhew and John Binny. Illus- trated by nearly two hundred Engravings on Wood, principally from Photographs. In one large vol. Imperial 8vo. Cloth, 10/6. This volume concludes Mr. Henry Mayhew's account of his researches into the crime and poverty of London. The amount of labour of one kind or other, which the whole series of his publications represents, is something almost incalculable. %* This celebrated Record of Investigations into the condition of the Poor of the Metropolis, undertaken from philanthropic motives by Mr. Henry Mayhew, first gave the wealthier classes of England some idea of the state of Heathenism, Degradation, and Misery in which multitudes of their poorer brethren languished. His revelations created, at the time of their appearance, universal horror and excitement—that a nation, professedly CJiristia7L, should have in its midst a vast population, so sunk in ignorance, vice, and very hatred of Religion, was deemed incredible, until further examination established the truth of the statements advanced. The result is well known. The London of Mr. Mayhkw will, happily, soon exist only in his pages. To those who would appreciate the efforts already made among the ranks which recruit our dangerous classes, and who would learn what yet remains to be done, the work will afford enlightenment, not unmingled with surprise.
