CATALOGUE OF BOOKS.

MR. ALCOTT and MR. LANE have recently brought from England a small but valuable library, amounting to about a thousand volumes, containing undoubtedly a richer collection of mystical writers than any other library in this country. To the select Library of the late J. P. Greaves, "held by Mr. Lane in trust for universal ends," they have added many works of a like character by purchase, or received as gifts. In their Catalogue, from which the following list is extracted, they say, "the titles of these books are now submitted, in the expectation that the Library is the commencement of an institution for the nurture of men in universal freedom of action, thought, and being." We print this list, not only because our respect is engaged to views so liberal, but because the arrival of this cabinet of mystic and theosophic lore is a remarkable fact in our literary history.
