We are even inclined to cur- tail them; since we might sometimes of- fend irritable authors, who do not wish that the defects of their works should be exposed. But a veridic, enlightened and independent Review is very much need- ed, and we hope to be enabled to furnish one hereafter. 1. Cabinet of Natural History and American Rural Sports. Philad. 1831.lv. 4to. with 24 colored figures of animals. Published by Mr. Doughty. A popular work issued in monthly numbers, with good figures and interesting accounts of quadrupeds, birds, &c.; but some bad names. The authors being chiefly ano- nymous, their wonderful tales and lucu- brations can be of no authority in science 3. The Alphabet of the Primitive Ian guage of Spain, and. Pliilosophy of the Euscaran or Bask people. Extract from the work of Mr. De Erro, by G. VV. Ew- ing. Boston, 1829, 1 thin 8vo with the Bask alphabet. Very valuable philolo gical work, proving the antiquity of the Euscaran language and alphabet, akin to the Etruscan and Greek; and giving the primitive philosophy of numbers. We shall again notice this work. 3. Manual of the Land Birds of the U. States and Canada, by Prof. Th. Nuttall, Boston 1832, thick 12mo. with inany wood engravings. Very good compiU' tion, useful like all manuals, with some original observations, and tolerable fi- gures; but those of birds si.; uld be cO' lored. 4. On the Causes, Cure, and Means of Preventing the Sick Head-ache, By Dr&l
