LOTH AIR. 
A JVovel. 
By the Slight Honorable BEP1JOSSHAELI, 
Late Prime Minister of Great Britain. 
‘ Nosse luce omnia salus est adoleseentulis.”— 1 Teeentius. 
After a silence of twenty-three yearsfhis last work “ Tancred ’’ TOspublished in 1847), this 
eminent English novelist reappears with a work m Ins best style. Lothan has all the 
Sant wit the keen and sparkling satire, and the refined gra ? e, ot the most popular of 
its 1 predecessors It deals with current topics of the deepest interest-with Femamsm, 
Ritualism, the Catholic Question, the intrigues of the Jesuits, etc., etc. 
NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 
“ There is not a fast character, a fast trait, or a fast phrase, in the whole of ‘ Lothair,’ yet 
the =torv is a story of yesterday— almost, of to-day—and comes fresh and warm from the au¬ 
thor’s study . ‘ Lothair ’will be read by the whole world, will provoke immense dis¬ 
cussion and will greatly deepen the interest with which the author’s own character, genius, 
and career, have long been contemplated by the nation. — London Daily news. 
“ ‘ Lothair ’ gives proof of rare originality, versatility, flexibility, force and freshness One 
cau only glance over the merits of a novel so pregnant with thought and charactei, nor vould 
we wish to do more were it possible. We should be very sorry to weaken the interest that 
must accompany the perusal of the book. We had thought Mr. Disraeli dared a gieat deal 
in risking his reputation on another novel, but now that we have read it we do not teel called 
upon to pay him many compliments on his courage. As lie wrote he have felt that 
the risk was illusory, and assured himself that liis powers had brightened instead of rustm 0 
in half a lifetime of repose.”— London Times. 
“As a series of brilliant sketches of character, with occasional digression*sinto'abstract 
and speculative topics,‘Lothair’need not fear comparison with the most sparkling of its 
author’s previous works.”— London Observer. 
“Nothing of the origiual verve of Mr. Disraeli’s style lias been lost by the lapses of years. 
Fresh as ‘ Conin° , sbv,’ vigorous as ‘ Vivian Grey, tender as Henrietta Temple, enthralling 
as ‘tancred ’ humorous as any of his former works, ‘Lothair,’ apart from the interest attach¬ 
ing to it on account of the position of its author, would be the literary success ot the season, 
—London Standard. _ . 
“As a literary production the new story is all that the admirers of ‘"Vivian Grey coulu 
have'wished ThcWt hand has lost none of its cunning. The wealth of glowing.descnption 
whose richness becomes at times almost a painful enjoyment, the keen satire, the spar = 
epigram, the wonderful sketches of society, the airy skimming over the surface ot life, 
touchma- upon its fastiionable graces, laughing a little at its fashionable tollies—all are Imre 
as we knew them of old. The brightness is undimmed and the spirit is unsubdued. —New 
York Tribune.
