we have now to welcome the author as a fiction writer of high
excellence. Mr. Howitt has evinced rare power in the por-
traiture of his principal character, the inimitable Madam
Dorrington, one of those genial souls casting sunshine and
gladness on the cold realities of the world. There is no
heroine in modern fiction we should venture to compare with
her. The characters of the sterner sex, too, are admirably
drawn. Jeremiah Gould, the learned Vicar of Westwood,
with his child-like simplicity and genial love for the whole
human family, would have done no discredit to Goldsmith's
pen. Indeed, there is a spirit of love and a descriptive power
in setting forth country virtues throughout this work truly
