4 NEW WORKS AND NEW EDITIONS, 
THE RECOLLECTIONS OF GEOFFRY HAMLYN. 
By Henry Kinestzy, Esq. 
Second Edition. Crown 8vo. cloth, 6s. 
Mr. Henry Kingsley has written a work that keeps up its interest from the first 
page to the last,—it is full of vigorous stirring life, and though an eager 
reader may be prompted to skip intervening digressions and details, hurrying 
on to see what comes of it all, he will, nevertheless, be pretty sure to return 
and read dutifully all the skipped passages after his main anziety has been 
allayed. The descriptions of Australian life in the early colonial days are 
marked by an unmistakeable touch of reality and personal experience ..... 
Mr. Henry Kingsley has written a book which the public will be more inclined 
to read than to criticise, and-we commend them to each other.’~-ATHENEUM. 
THE ITALIAN WAR OF 1848-9, 
And the Last Italian Poet. By the late Hunry 
LUSHINGTON, Chief Secretary to the Government of Malta. 
With a Biographical Preface by G. Stovin Vunwasiss. 
; Crown 8vo. cloth, 6s. 6d. 
© As the writer warms with his subject, he reaches a very uncommon and charac- 
teristic deyree of excellence. The narrative becomes lively and graphic, and the 
language is full of eloquence. Perhaps the most difficult of all literary tasks 
—the task of giving historical unity, dignity, and interest, to events so recent 
as to be stilt encumbered with all the details with which newspapers invest 
them—has never been more successfully discharged, ... Mr. Lushington, in a 
very short compass, shows the true nature and sequence of the event, and gives 
to the whole story of the struggle and defeat of Italy a degree of unity and 
dramatic interest which not one newspaper reader in ten thousand ever supposed 
at to possess.” —SaTURDAY REVIEW.

gives the reader a feeling of gratitude and personal esteem towards the author. 
The author could not have a better style, nor a better temper, nor a more 
excellent artist than Mr. Doyle to adorn his book.”-——SatuRDsy Rzyinw.
