Mr. Leland has been very industrious in collecting himself the strange lore of `what is really the practical religion of all peasants and poor people, that is, their magical ceremonies and medicine ` and he also sets forth in an interesting manner very much material derived from authorities little known to the common English reader. Fortune-telling,witch-doctoring, love-philtering, and other kinds of sorcery are very fully illustrated the volume is, indeed, quite a cyclopedia in its way.
