The nick-nacks of literature collected in Mr. D'Israeli's cabinet were selected from sources not generally accessible to ordinary readers. These volumes are not only admirably adapted to minister to the amusement of the lounger and refined trifler, but they have higher capacities, as curious and authentic pictures of the manners of ruder times, and records of the progress of letters from their rise in the dark middle ages, to almost the present era of the universal diffusion of the literary wealth which they go to augment.
