Todhunter.— THE CONFLICT OF STUDIES ; ANI>
OTHER ESSAYS ON SUBJECTS CONNECTED WITH
EDUCATION. By Isaac Todhunter, M.A., F.R.S., late-
Fellow and Principal Mathematical Lecturer of St. John's College,
Cambridge. 8vo. ioj. 6et.
Mr. Todhunter has enjoyed favourable opportunities for becoming
practically acquainted with the matters on -which he treats. A lowj
f esuience at Cambridge, continued occupation m lecturing, much ex
perience in examinations, both in the University and elseivhere, and a
share in the deliberations of several important Syndicates which have been
employed in the reconstruction of official courses of study have induced
and enabled him to form definite opinions on many points connected with
the general subject of education. The names of the several Essays are:—
1. The Conflict of Studies. II. Competitive Examinations. III.
Private Study of Mathematics. IV. Academical Reform. V. EU-
mentary Geometry. VI. The Mathematical Tripos.

GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS IN GERMANY, and other Lecture-
on the Thirty Years' War. By R. Chenevix Trench, D.D.,
Archbishop of Dublin. Second Edition, revised and enlarged.
Fcap. 8vo. 4.r.
The lectures contained in this volume form rather a new book than a
new edition, for on the two lectures published by the Author sn'eral years
ago, so many changes and additions have been made, as to make the work
virtually a new one. Besides three lectures of the career of Gustavus in
Germany and during the Thirty Years' War, there are other two, one
on " Germany during the Thirty Years' War," and another on Germany
after that War. The work will be found not only interesting and in
structive in itself but will be found to have some bearing on events con
nected with the recent European War.
PLUTARCH, HIS LIFE, HIS LIVES, AND HIS MORALS.
Four Lectures by Richard Chenevix Trench, D.D., Arch
bishop of Dubl n. Fcap. 8vo. 3J. 6d.
