HERMANN AGHA. An Eastern Narrative. By W. Gifford 

 Paegrave, Author of ' Travels in Central Arabia ' &c. Second 

 Edition. 2 vols, crown 8vo. cloth, extra gilt, 18s. 



1 Eeads like a tale of life, with all its incidents : the young will take to it for 

 its love portions, the older for its descriptions, some in this day for its Arab 

 philos ophy .' — Athenceu m . 



1 The cardinal merit, however, of the story is, to our thinking, the exquisite 

 simplicity and purity of the love portion. There is a positive fragrance as of 

 newly-mown hay about it, as compared with the artificially perfumed passions 

 which are detailed to us with, such gusto by our ordinary novel-writers in their 

 endless volumes.' — Observer. 



SEPTIMIUS. A Romance. By Nathaniel Hawthorne, 

 Author of 'The Scarlet Letter,' ' Transformation,' &c. Second Edition. 

 1 vol. crown 8vo. cloth, extra gilt, 95. 



A peculiar interest attaches to this work. It was the last thing the author 

 wrote, and he may be said to have died as he finished it. 



The Athenceum says that ' the book is full of Hawthorne's most characteristic 

 writing.' 



' One of the best examples of Hawthorne's writing ; every page is impressed 

 with his peculiar view of thought, conveyed in his own familiar way.' — Post.
