A Week at Killarney review by Hall and wife
A London edition titled A Week at Killarney by Mr and Mrs H Hall is praised as a handsome companion to their Ireland work. The volume features steel engravings by Creswick and Bartlett, extensive guide-notes from Dublin to Killarney, and vivid scenery including Gougane Barra Glengariff the Reeks and the Lakes. The piece highlights the boat excursion to the Long Range the Eagle's Nest and Spillane the bugler, and recounts Irish legends about St Patrick Macgillicuddy and the Innisfallen abbot with a rich, picturesque tour narrative.

Critical review of Life Poetry and Letters of Ebenezer Elliott
A negative assessment of John Watkins life of Ebenezer Elliott argues the book is dominated by Watkins's opinions rather than Elliott's biography. The critic condemns the work as poorly executed, noting the autobiography and few letters are the only valuable elements while Watkins's general discussions dilute the portrait of the Corn Law rhymer.
