Sotheby of London the following prices were obtained: Horæ in Usum Sarum, beautifully written on vellum with floriated borders and miniatures, sold for 2100 dollars. It was probably executed for Edward, Lord Hastings, Lord Chamberlain to Queen Mary, as his arms, Argent, a mnaunch sable, are emblazoned opposite the first page of the calendar. Subsequently it was in the possession of Henry, Lord Maltravers, who has written on the reverse of the miniature to the Salutation: When you your prayers doe rehers Afterwards it became the property of the Arundel family, as appears from the emblazoned arms of Arundel quartering Maltravers in the border to the Officium de Sancta Trinitate; thence it passed into the Norfolk family, and in 1659 was presented to the Convent of Bornheim by the Cardinal de Norfolk its founder. On the obverse of the first miniature to the Officium de Sancta Trinitate is an autograph letter of Queen Mary of England, commencing Myne owne good Kate" (probably Lady Cather ine Howard), requesting "ofte as you can not se me bodyly wyth yr prayrs I pray you vyste me."

HENRY STEVENS, OF VERMONT, who died on February 28th last, having been warned some time previously by his medical advisers of the precarious state of his health, had early in the year given instructions for the sale of the Second portion of his Historical Collections relating to America, and the Catalogue was in preparation at the time of his decease. The Collection now offered embraces the greater part of his personal or working library, and exhibits in a marked degree his well known penchant for fine or uncut copies of rare books, and his love for elegant and expensive bindings when the books could not be obtained in their original condition. Many volumes contain his Book-plate. A few of the most important Lots are briefly mentioned on the Title of the Catalogue, and in the Advertisement on page 33, but amongst so many volumes on one general subject, it is difficult to discriminate, as the less well-known books are often really the most important historically. For this reason the books have been catalogued rather more fully than usual, and in a few cases notes added, mostly from Mr. Steven's own memoranda. Catalogues of this valuable collection have been sent to THE BOOKMART PUBLISHING CO., for distribution those desiring them may be able to get them immediately, and also from Mr. C. C. Soule, 26 Pemberton Square, Boston. Messrs. Sotheby Wilkinson & Hodge, the widely-known Auctioneers, state in the catalogue that they have a few copies of Part I, of this collection containing an account of Mr. Steven's grand Franklin Collection, which they offer at five shillings each and the publishers of THE BOOKMART can supply written prices of the sale at $1.00, and will possibly be able to supply printed prices of Part II. We regret to learn that the famous library of Lord Crawford and Balcarres-one of the most representative libraries ever got together-is to be sold by auction at Sotheby's. There is a fine collection of a Manuscript claimed to have been lluminated by "Grotto." This is very curious and rare. Also the collection of B. Homer Dixon, Esq., of Toronto, Canada. A valuable Cabinet of Arms and Armor, and objects of great rarity selected from the specimens made from the Fifteenth to the Eighteenth Centuries; and his Admirable Antiquarian Library (some 200 lots) relating to Arms and Armor; also English Topographical Works, Country Histories, and Miscellaneous Literature.
