NEW BOOKS.

We have received from D. Appleton & Company, New York, through A. Waldteufel, the following new books:

The Movements and Habits of Climbing Plants. By Charles Darwin, M.A., F.R.S. Second edition revised. With Illustrations. D. Appleton & Company.

Darwin brings to the consideration of this subject─especially interesting to all botanists─the same vigor of thought and fine line reasoning that characterize his writings on the evolution of the human race. He is always fascinating, always instructive.
