Leigh's A Town Garland. ' By Henry S. LEiGH, Author of 'Carols of Cockayne."

"If Mr. Legh's verse survive to a future generation—and there ts no reason why that honour should not be accorded productions so delicate, so finished, and so Full of humour—thetr author will probably be remembered as the Pos} of the Strands... Very whimsically does Mr. Leigh treat the subjects which com mend themselues to him. His verse is always admirable in rhythm, and his rhymes are happy enough to deserve a place by the best of Barham... . . The entire contents of the volume are equally noteworthy for humour and for daintiness of workmanship." —ATHENAUM.
