"In the two handsome and beautifully printed volumes before us one of the greatest of 

 America's historians has proved that the epistolary Muse pf English literature dare not give 

 her Transatlantic sister odds. There is a portrait of Mr. Motley in the first of these volumes, 

 and the book accurately fulfils the promise of his captivating countenance. A better example 

 of the trust that may be placed in the good looks which have been described as better than 

 any other letters of introduction is not often met with. Our sole object in this notice is to 

 make it clear to all whom it concerns that Mr. Motley's correspondence is a boon to book- 

 lovers, and is as well worth purchasing as it is beyond all question well worth reading. In a 

 word, this correspondence may be not untruly said to be a most valuable addition to a most 

 pleasant department of literature, and as such it deserves all the success which we most con- 

 fidently anticipate for it." — Spectator.

A NOVEL. 

 By the HON. EMILY LAWLESS. 



Crown %vo. 6s. 



"It was not an easy task to write a novel like ' Major Lawrence, F. L. S. ' . . . but in our 

 judgment Miss Lawless has completely succeeded .... altogether there have been few stories 

 published this season which may be read with such sincere pleasure, or studied with more 

 profit. ' ' — Academy. 



"We part with ' Major Lawrence ' with regret ; it is a good book, a pure book, a book to 

 stimulate and to help men and women whose lives are not aU sxmshme."— Yorkshire Post.
