ADAM GRAEME OF MOSSGRAY. 



u ' Adam Graeme ' is a story awakening genuine emotions of interest and delight by its 

 admirable pictures of Scottish life and scenery. The plot is cleverly complicated, and 

 there is great vitality in the dialogue, and remarkable brilliancy in the descriptive pas- 

 sages, as who that has read 'Margaret Mailand' would not be prepared to expect? 

 But the story has a 'mightier magnet still,' in the healthy tone which pervades it, in its 

 feminine delicacy of thought and diction, and in the truly womanly tenderness of its 

 sentiments. The eloquent author sets before us the essential attributes of Christian 

 virtue, their deep and silent workings in the heart, and their beautiful manifestations in 

 the life, with a delicacy, a power, and a truth which can hardly be surpassed," Morning 

 Pott. 



THE LAIRD OF NORLAW. 



"We have had frequent opportunities of commending Messrs. Hurst and Blackett's 

 Standard Library. For neatness, elegance, and distinctness the volumes in this series 

 surpass anything with which we are familiar. ' The Laird of Norlaw ' will fully sustai a 

 the author's high reputation. The reader is carried on from first to last with an energy 

 Of sympathy that never flaga" -Sunday Times. 



"'The Laird of Norlaw' is worthy of the author's reputation. It is one of the most 

 exquisite of modern novels." Observer. 



IT WAS A LOVER AND HIS LASS. 



" In 'It was a Lover and his Lass,' we admire Mrs. Oliphant exceedingly. Her story is 

 a very pretty one. It would be worth reading a second time, were it only for the sake of 

 one ancient Scottish spinster, who is nearly the counterpart of the admirable Mrs. Mar- 

 garet Maitland." Timet. 



AGNES. 



" 'Agnes' Is a novel superior to any of Mrs. Oliphant's former works." Athenaeum. 



" Mrs. Oliphant is one of the most admirable of our novelists. In her works there are 

 always to be found high principle, good taste, sense, and refinement ' Agnes ' is a story 

 whose pathetic beauty will appeal irresistibly to all readers." Morning Pott. 



A ROSE IN JUNE. 



"'A Rose in June' is as pretty as its title. The story is one of the best and most 

 touching which we owe to the industry and talent of Mrs. Oliphant, and may hold its own 

 with even ' The Chronicles of Carlingford.' "Timet. 



PHCEBE, JUNIOR. 



"This last 'Chronicle of Carlingford' not merely takes rank fairly beside the first 

 which introduced us to ' Salem Chapel,' but surpasses all the intermediate records. 

 Phoebe, Junior, herself is admirably drawn." Academy. 



LIFE OF THE REV. EDWARD IRVING. 



'A good book on a most interesting theme." Times. 



11 A truly interesting and most affecting memoir. ' Irving's Life' ought to have a niche 

 in every gallery of religious biography. There are few lives that will be fuller of in- 

 struction, interest, and consolation." Saturday Review.
