This article presents information about books and literature. G.P. Putnam's Sons resume publication of Washington Irving's works, which have for some years past borne the imprint of publishers J.B. Lippincott & Co. Their fall announcements include the books "Egypt and Iceland," by Bayard Taylor, and "Winter Homes for Invalids,' by Joseph W. Howe. The death of Professor Jeffries Wyman is a great sorrow and irreparable loss. His published writings, mainly papers in the transactions of scientific societies and journals, and of considerable number, are none of them popular in character or in the least pretentious, but none of them ephemeral in value. They are all solid and implicitly trustworthy contributions to scientific knowledge.
