" Ever thc Same . " Written by Bro . ALFRED B . EMANUEL ; composed by C . RICHARDSON London : John Shepherd , 20 , Warwick Lane , Paternoster Row , and of the author , 27 , Somerford Grove , Stoke Newington . This beautiful ballad has now reached a fifth
edition . It is really charming in melody , and the poetry is very pretty . ; It is in thc key of E flat ; compass E flat to E flat . It has been sung with much enthusiasm by many popular singers , including Mr . Sims Reeves . It cannot fail to please wherever sung ,
either in drawing or concert room . AA e beg to recommend it to our musical brethren , and feel confident whilst so doing they will be highly delighted . " Often . " New Song . AVords and music by CARL WAGNER . London : Bro . Alfred B .
Emanuel , " Bijou Lodge , Burnt Ash Lane , Lee , S . E . This excellent composition may be classed with Carl AVagner ' s great production , which have all proved great successes . Both words and
music are good , and should be placed 111 every drawing-room . AVe congratulate the composer of this pathetic song , and may say great power has been displayed in its arrangement ; and we trust that it will obtain a large and well-deserved circulation .

Love , 40 , St . Enoch Square . The sole end of this edition of the " Secreta Monita " of the Jesuits , is thc enlightenment of our fellow-countrymen as to the aims and ends of that confederation . And thc editor has tried in this little work to rouse a Protestant spirit

Ihe writer has very ably shown that the Campbells were equal to any of their compeers in the various arts , manufactures , and commerce . And were also eminent in thc pulpit and the press , the synod and the senate ,

In the appendix are given some prominent facts in the history of the Clan , omitted by McEwin and Colvin , by the first setting forth an epitome of the history of the younger branches , and afterward giving a sketch of a few of the most distinguished men of the name , amongst whom are Baron Campbell , Lord Clyde , anel
many other noted celebrities . AVe have much pleasure in recommending this valuable anil well-written history .
