Map. Post 8vo. 10s. 6d. " This is a truly seasonable publication. There never was a better time than the present for any judicious attempt towards disseminating information respecting the condition, wants, capabilities, and resources of British colonies. W e can cordially recommend Mr. Wilkinson's book to that attentive perusal which its title invites."—Mom. Chronicle. " Mr. Wilkinson points out what class of persons are best calculated to emigrate; the opportunities which lie within their reach of acquiring wealth ; cautions to be observed on landing ; the best ships to go by ; their fares ; what articles of clothing, & c , should be taken out ; what left to be purchased in the colony ; with the prices of everything which may be bought or sold there. Mr. Wilkinson's book, indeed, is by many degrees the best in a practical sense we have seen."—Morning Advertiser.

REG.
With Woodcuts, Fcap. 8vo. 6s. " A more opportune, a pleasanter, a more useful book to the sportsman than this has not been published for many a day. The author is a practical man, and almost everything he writes'about dog-breaking may be relied on. He is most varied and minute, has forgotten nothing ; and the many things he teaches, he teaches well. The volume is interspersed with readable anecdotes of dogs, and scattered over it are numerous explanatory woodcuts. The breed of dogs is not overlooked, and all things are taught that may make every man his own dog-breaker."—Bell's Life.
