W ,AND SHARKS AND SEA GULLS.
By CAPTAIN GLASCOCK, R.N.

Author of '1 Tales of a Tar," " Naval Sketch Book," ho►

" There are good things both of land and sea in this story.
Much good-humour, laughable adventure, and an admirable vein
of feeling for the mixture of the tender, mysterious, and awful.
The murder at Willesden, for instance, is a masterpiece of natural
and apprehensive relation. Captain Glascock's ' Land sharks and
Sea Gulls' has, indeed, both entertained and affected us."—Exa-
miner.
