Email WYNDHAM. —A cheap edition of this
charmingwork, price 6s. bound, has just appeared. as
the new volume of " Colburn's Standard Novels," and; it
will doubtless be considered one Lf the most attractive of
this popular series. " Let no one (says the John Bull)
who wishes to read a work of fiction with the stamp of
genius upon it hesitate in procuring ' Emilia Wyndham.'
This novel has the merit of rivettieg the attention, rous-
ing the feelings, and creating an interest that never flags.
It is a tale of domestic life; all the incidents are inci-
dents of the fireside, all the characters are characters of
home; and they form a living group in the memory of
the reader. The author has considerable humour, ap-
proaching that of Moli4re or Addison while his
, dialogue
is essentially dramatic and full of vigour. A lofty moral
tone pervades the whole, which is enforced by a style at
once
p 0 wQrful, rapid, and graceful."

bour, Sir William Massey Stanley, is in difficulties. A
