GRATTAN'S NEW WORK.—The new novel from the pen of the distinguished aukhor of " Highways and Byways," is entitled " Agnes ae Mansfeldt." Mr. Grattan has been most happy in the selection of the histo rical epoch that he has so vividly illustrated. It is perhaps the best proof of . the mental powers which Mr. Grattan posse,sses, that even when he digresses from his story, his matter is still attractive. His reflections on national policy —his views of society—his descriptions of scenery—his portraiture of human passions and feelings, are all the creations of a master-mind. The volumes must become very popular. The Jersey farmers are petitioning the States for a prohibition of French produce, and for other measures to protect the agriculture of the country. They especially complain that the exportation to England of potatoes, which are the principal agricultural produce of the country, is now at an end, owing to the extensive cultivation of the root.— Jersey Paper. TIIE UNKNOWN AUTHOR OF MY AUNT PONTY rooL.—Rumour has been busy in the coteries of literary gossips with the name of the author of this work, and the gentleman himself appears really anxious by,, the preface for the preservation of the anonymous. It is a clever produc tion, and one in which the excellencies are very numerous. The author is not military, but nevertheless his descriptions of battles are spirit-stirring, and his reflections upon them such as would suggest themselves to a cultivated and en thusiastic mind. The work abounds with admirably drawn characters, and we would particularly direct the attention of our readers to one of the happiest of the author's crea tions—my Aunt Pontypool.
