Modestly, with an evident desire to tell only the truth, Major Greely gives the history of his experi ences, from the time when the expedition left the United States to the day when it returned, little more than a fifth of what it set out. Though he narrates in detail the execution of private Henry for repeated thefts, he declines to touch on the subject of the cannibalism which aroused so much unnecessary animadversion. These volumes are full of valuable matter. No account of travel produced this winter is comparable with them; not one is so beautifully illustrated or treats of matter so important.

The section of the second lecture, on seeds which mimic animals, we regard as the perfection of popular scientific style. The object of the lecture on Leaves' is to show that the endless variety of shape and character and hue, which has often been regarded as a beneficent arrangement made specially with reference to the enjoyment and delight of man, is really due more to considerations of utility, of fitness, and purpose; and the investigation of some of the typical forms is carried out in a manner well calculated to enforce this conviction." - British quarterly rev., April.

Heaps of information (not always correct) are 'shot' (like rubbish) all over the place; and if this information is necessary and ought to be given, why is other information equally necessary withheld?"
