On 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-

Man-

" Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains pasaages of exceed-
ing beauty, and is written in pure and forcible language, with great
