PECULIAR. A TALE OF THE GREAT
TItANSITION. Edited by WILLIAM HOWITT.
" This tale contains a living interest and positive value.
But it is rather in artistic treatment, in the delineation of
character, in the development of the clot, and in the liveli-
ness of the narrative, that the real merit consists. All the
characters are admirably described."—Post.

SECOND EDITION of BARBARA'S
HISTORY. By AMELIA B. EDwARDS.
From the Times, M arch ?S. —"lt is not often that we light
upon a new novel of so much merit and interest as Barbara's
History.' It is a work conspicuous beyond the average for
taste and literary culture, and felicitous in its delineation of
some very delicate a❑d refined shades of character. It is a
very graceful and charming book, with a well mana:i ed story,
clearly cut characters, and sentiments expressed with an ex-
quisite elocution. The dialogues especi illy spa kle with re-
partee. It is a book which the world will like, and which
those who commence it will care to finish. This is high
praise of a work of art, and so we intend it."
