By Captain MARRYAT.
Captain Marryat has done for naval stories what Dibdin did
for the sailors' songs, he has stereotyped the British sailor for all
time. While the songs of the latter are repeated in every quarter
of the globe, the naval stories of the former are welcomed with
delight at countless firesides at home and abroad. No wonder,
then, that 20,000 copies of " Peter Simple " have been ordered
before publication.

THE PIRATES OF THE MISSISSIPPI.
By F. GERSTAECKER.
Is a true picture of ' River Life in America" at the time the
Union was first formed, when crews of pirates, taking possession
of some of the islands that stud this mighty river, by their
nightly excursions therefrom carried dismay and terror for miles
around. It contains graphic descriptions of scenery, is full of
exciting adventure, and reminds the reader strongly of Captain
Marryat's famous fictions.
