LENDING BOOKS.

Doctor Gerhard, of Jena, used to write in his books a Latin inscription, thus translated:—­“I belong to Gerhard’s library; take care neither to soil nor tear me; neither keep me in your possession out of the library more than one month.  Do not steal me.”

TO THE PUBLIC.

With the present Number of the Mirror is published a SUPPLEMENTARY SHEET, half of which is occupied by THREE ENGRAVINGS, viz. an authorized Ground Plan of St. JAMES’S and the GREEN PARKS—­a View of BUCKINGHAM NEW PALACE, and of the GRAND ENTRANCE to the PALACE GARDENS at Hyde Park Corner.  The Supplement also contains minute references and descriptions of the above Engravings, and the REPORT of the EXPEDITIONS of Captains Parry and Franklin, recently returned to England.  The daily increasing interest of the above subjects (which so largely engross the public attention) cannot fail to render the above Number proportionally acceptable to our readers; whilst the illustrations will recommend themselves by the fidelity of the sources from which they are executed.
