"ARMS OF NATURAL DAUGHTERS" (4th S. ii. 467.)-I beg to refer E. W. to the coats of arms of the Mulgrave and Falkland families. An ancestor of the former family, Sir William Phipps, by his marriage with Lady Catherine Annesley (daughter of James, fourth Earl of Anglesea, and Lady Catherine Darnley, natural daughter of James II.), introduced in the second and third quarters of his shield the arms of his wife's father (Annesley) and mother, the latter being the royal coat of arms upon a bordure gobony, argent and azure. From this it would appear that Catherine Darnley possessed the right to bear her father's arms and transmit them to her children.

Viscount Falkland, by his first marriage with Amelia Fitzclarence, daughter of William IV., bears in the third quarter of his shield the royal arms on a bordure, as described in former example, but with the slight difference of an ermine spot on the argent of bordure. In both cases it is to be remarked that the arms are borne without abatement. On the other hand may be quoted the arms of the Earls Lucan, Newburgh, and Waldegrave. The first and second descended from natural daughters of Charles II.; the latter from a natural daughter of James II. These three coats have no reference to the royal source of the maternal ancestors of these families. It would appear probable that natural daughters do not possess the right of the paternal coat of arms, except by special grant, as one would infer was the case in the first two instances quoted.

NOTES ON BOOKS, ETC.

Saint George and the Dragon, illustrated by John Franklin. (Virtue.)

We regret that we did not receive this beautiful volume in time to bring it under the notice of the readers of our Christmas number. The version of the legend of our National Patron Saint which Mr. Franklin has chosen, is that printed in the third volume of Percy's Reliques, and the story as there told is illustrated with great power and beauty in twelve large engravings with quaint and appropriate borders, and a number of head and tail pieces. Though Mr. Franklin has had before his eyes some of the illustrations with which the artists of Germany have illustrated the legends and ballads of their native country, his work is as original as vigorous; and the admirable manner in which his drawings have been engraved by Mr. James D. Cooper has contributed in no small degree to the beauty of this very characteristic volume.

The Handbook of Heraldry, with Directions for tracing Pedigrees and deciphering Ancient MSS.; also Rules for the Appointment of Liveries, &c. By John E. Cussans. Illustrated with One hundred and fifty Plates and Woodcuts. (Hotten.)

Mr. Cussan's Introduction to Heraldry is, as he frankly avows, in a great measure a compilation, but it has two merits-first, that of being very judiciously compiled from the materials which he had before him, and second, that of

treating of many branches of the subject which have not hitherto been included in such manuals, namely, such as directions for emblazoning, for tracing and setting out pedigrees, and deciphering ancient manuscripts. The chapters on the appointment of Modern Liveries, and on French and American Heraldry, will in like manner have an interest for some readers, so that the book, which is very handsomely got up, and written especially for beginners in heraldry, can scarcely fail to be popular.

THE MANUFACTURE OF WATCHES AND CLOCKS.-A most interesting and instructive little work, describing briefly, but with great clearness, the rise and progress of watch and clock making, has just been published by Ma. J. W. BENSON, 25, Old Bond Street: 99, Westbourne Grove; and the Steam City Factory, 59 and 60, Ludgate Hill. The book, which is profusely illustrated, gives a full description of the various kinds of watches and clocks, with their prices; and no one should make a purchase without visiting the above establishments or consulting this truly valuable work. By its aid persons residing in any part of the United Kingdom, India, or the Colonies, are enabled to select for themselves the watch best adapted for their use, and have it sent to them with perfect safety. MR. BENSON, who holds the appointment to the Prince of Wales, sends this pamphlet to any address on receipt of two postage stamps, and we cannot too strongly recommend it to the notice of the intending purchaser.

brings these symptoms, so frequently the forerunners of serious diseases, and when neglected, too often terminating in palsy and apoplexy. The moment giddiness, dimness of sight, or headache comes on, Holloway's Ointment should be freely rubbed into the nape and glands of the neck, and his Pills should be simultaneously taken to complete the patient's security; which will be thoroughly guaranteed by a strict obedience to the directions for use which envelop every pot and box of these purifying and preservative remedies. The Ointment and Pills act beneficially by driving the blood from the head, balancing the circulation, removing all undue pressure from over-gorged veins, and invigorating the nervous system.
