MANUALS FOR LADIES. 



THE ENGLISH GENTLEWOMAN; 



OR, A PRACTICAL MANUAL FOR YOUXG- LADIES ON THEIR 



ENTRANCE INTO SOCIETY. 

 Third Edition. Eevised and Enlarged by the Author. Fcap. 8vo, 



cloth, floral gilt edges, 4s. . 



" This work is intended chiefly for young ladies of the upper classes of English societ y. 

 The object of the writer is, by tha experience of a life passed in those circles which con- 

 stitute what is called ' the world,' to supply those who are entering into a new and busy 

 sphere with some of the practical benefits of observation and reflection, to propound the 

 elements of that species of knowledge which, contrary to other sciences, is usually ac- 

 [uired by blunders and errors, the lessons of which are often received with mortification, 

 ud remembered often with regret. This little book, which pretends to no deeper leurn- 

 iig than that which the heart and the memory can impart, is therefore offered to the 

 ounc; who are destined, not for the happy duties of an humble and narrow sphere, but 

 or the arduous introduction into a career usually deemed mure perilous. It is for those 

 \ho must live, more or less, in communion with the gay and the opulent, but who wish 

 ' t<> live unspotted in the world." It is meant to resemble the warning voice of the nurse 

 who sees the children of her care sporting on the bank of a sedgy pool, all green wi.h 

 aquatic plants, and calls them to beware." Extract from the Preface.

 now. It is offered with earnest prayers for the well-being of tha young matron ; in all 

 faithfulness, in all sincerity, to her is proffered such counsels as a mother would give to 

 a beloved daughter entering on the all-important career of married life," Extract front
