LA PlCCioLA.—Ercry one is inquiring the nature
of the story just published under the above fanciful title. I.°
satisfy the curious, let us explain that " La Picciola" is the
history of a young French nobleman, developed by a series el
fanciful incidents, such as the mind of a Frenchman could alone
have conceived, or the powerfully wielded pen of an acorn;
pushed writer alone have rendered acceptable. No one we shoull;
imagine, ever stopped short amid the pathos of " Paul and
Virginia," or the eloquence of " ..ktala," to call in questioa
the probabilities of the narrative ; and it must be a very hard"
hearted reader who will pause while the destinies of "
Picciola" are depending, to enquire whether the story be
portrait of—
" Natural sorrow, fear, and pain,
Which has been, and may be again."
We are well content that the romance should have oceurreti--
if only to the imagination of a miter of such promise as M. 13°
Saintine.
