A NOVEL. 0 0 D.
" The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, and by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
swig 2 which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
en the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man-
screen, and Smythes."—Observer.
Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and is written In pure and forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en
gaging novels which the present season has produced. Of the cha-
racter of Amelia Ross we have already spoken, and the extract we
have given above is the surest voucbcr of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladies who play conspicuons parts in the tale are
lerence Howard. an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
frnpulsive genius, passionately fond of music and poetry ; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of thorn all."—Morning Post.
Richard Bentley, New Burlington-street.
