BY JUSTIN WINSOR.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

There has just appeared a catalogue in pamphlet form of all the publications of Harvard University, and its officers for the years 1880-1885. This work cannot be praised too highly. It contains most valuable information in regard to the recent literature of our college, and forms an invaluable help for reference. First comes a list of the official publications, in which those of the University, the Library, and Museum of Comparative Zoology occupy the first few pages. Next in order are the publications relating to the university. This is highly interesting to us as students, by reason of the cataloguing herein contained of all that is published in regard to our college papers and societies. There is also a list of class reports, and of discussions pertaining to the place of classics in education. The last division and the one which fills nearly the entire pamphlet is the catalogue of publications of the instructors of the university. We may well be proud of this array of the works of our eminent men. Forty-two closely printed pages of two columns each, are requisite to record the list of the teachings which have gone forth into the world from our college professors. There is nothing in this pamphlet that is not directly to the point. To Mr. Justin Winsor is due the utmost praise for the neat and compact form which he has given to the highly important information contained in this pamphlet.
