MIDNIGHT MEETING MOVEMENT. Office, 5, Red Lion-square, W.C., London.—During the last 10 years this Institution has been instrumental in rescuing a vast number of poor girls from a life of degradation and misery. The plan adopted has been to seek the wanderers in the streets of London and gather them together at the midnight hour, when short and faithful addresses have been given. During the present year the Meetings have been held nearly every week in some of the most frequented districts of the metropolis. The promoters have abundant evidence that these efforts have been most successful in effecting a great moral change in many fallen ones. To enable them to •continue their important work, FUNDS are earnestly solicited, and will be thankfully received by Mr. John Stabb, Hon. Sec., 5, Red Lion-square, W.C., London ; and at the Union Bank of London (Carey-street Branch), W.C. Lly(te . " APARTMENTS TO LET" Is the Title of CHARLES CLARKE'S CHRISTMAS ANNUAL. Third series, for 1870, price 4d. C. H. CLARKE, 13, PATERNOSTER &OW And all Booksellers and 1 , ewsmen. NOW READY, CIIARLES K ENT'S POEMS. THE FIRST COLLECTIVE EDITION. Handsomely bound in cloth, bevelled boards, Crown Octavo, price Seven Shillings and Sixpence. "As a poet their author must live. He has the sweetness of Wordsworth, the vigour of Southey, and the elegant versatility of Coleridge. It is, however, as a poet of the affections that Mr. Kent chiefly excels. The longer and more ambitious poems exhibit extraordinary genius."—The New Monthly Magazine. - "As many of these compositioni are already old acquaintances, we need only glance at the picturesque and appreciative de lineations of poets in their haunts, called 'Dreamland at the rich and finished transcript from nature, entitled Fructidor at the chivalrous tone of the writer's mind and its sympathy with modern ideas, as evidenced in such poems as Lamartine in February ;* at his simple and genuine pathos, of which Amelia' is a type ; and at his sympathy with the animated pleasures of rural life, in evidence of which we may cite The Morris Dancers.' Aletheia 'is the longest, and, on the whole, the noblest poem in the collection. It will be recurred to not only for its beauty of description, but for its pure and elevated philosophy. The reader will note not only the atmosphere in whicii the chief figure moves, but • also the full and appropriate details which enrich the picture. The high and varied merits of the book ought to insure its popularity. .--Athenteum. " Mr. Charles Kent, the Editor of The Sun,' ranks very high as a poet."—Publishers' Circular. "The versatility of style, and the fresh and vigorous writing in these poems, lend a charm which we seldom find in the poetry of the day."—Examiner. "Poems marked by grace, feeling, and strong love of nature, and a cultivated and genial spirit."—Daily News. " The poems which appear for the first time in this volume are not unworthy of the author's earlier productions."—Daily Telegraph. "Mr. Kent may not aspire to be classed among the Dii Majores ' of the poetic court, but assuredly he will take a very respectable position among the lesser divinities."—Standard. "There is much that is very beautiful in the poems before us—a collection of the thoughts, the emotions, the feelings of a whole lifetime."—Tablet. The "Rock" expresses its "cordial admiration for the genius and the taste of Mr. Kent as a poet of very considerable powers and culture," adding, "The real vigour of Mr. Kent's poetical spirit manifests itself chiefly in dealing with the feelings. He is equally at home in pathos and in terror, and in strains that go right to the heart and stir the emotions to the lowest depths." • - - - "Mr. Charles Kent has long been known to wield a facile pen in writing poems of the class just indicated, and it is but fair to add that he takes high rank among the minor poets."— Echo. The "Westminster Review." while regretting it " cannot join in the chorus of praise, nor share „in the enthusiasm which has been raised over Mr. Kent's poemt," adds that it " cannot, how ever, part with the book without expressing a word of praise for its generous t ,ne and sympathies." "He is a true poet, and his works will live."—News of the World. "We have the pleasant task of welcoming, as a real addition to the ranks of our true poets, Mr. Kent. He is.something more than a mere versifier ; he is a real poet, and .has proved it. ' Milton at Cripplegate '—an exquisite picture of the blind old poet discoursing sweet sounds upon the organ in solitary but resigned sadness—is a poem that ought to live. Such of our readers as care for the roll of Milton's own blank verse, for thoroughly poetic fancies, for delicate imagery, and fora high and pure tone of moral feeling, we must leave to ponder over this short poem for themselves."—London Figaro. " That very graceful poem which appeared in the Times' as a welcome to Longfellow, and which, ' from the initials, was attributed to the author of Hypatia. was written by Mr. Charles Kent, the Editor of The Sun,' and was worthy of a priest of Phoebus Apollo."—Punch. -• • - " We find in the volume a luxuriant imagery, the fruit of a lifelong study of nature. As for flowers ! —Mr. Kent Is as well up in them as Shakspere himself. Lastly, it recommends itself to us by its historical sympathies and views, and by the charm ing pictures of domestic life, with its affections and blessings, which it frequently affords us." —The Month.

It is at once a tent-book by a lamb authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or drawing-room table.
