THE PARSON'S DAUGHTER.—In speaking
of this Novel, the _Monthly Review says, " Since the
demise of the illustrious father of the Waverley creatio
there is not a disciple of his celebrated school to whom "I
should sooner look for the inheritance of his mantle, than
the very individual who has written the present novel'
We never were less disposed to doubt the truth of this
impression, which has long rested on our minds, than after
the perusal of the Parson's Daughter,' a work in which
the most exalted attributes of the novel-writer shine 00
with a lustre which certainly no contemporary competiOr
will be able to eclipse." This, though in spirit a
.o'l
tribute to the genius of Mr. THEODORE HOOK, seems
be not very happily illustrated. The author of The
Parson's Daughter" may be said to inherit rather tbe
mantle of FIELDING Or LE SAGE than of Sir WALTO
SCOTT. HOOK'S novels are conversant with "that Wbieb
before us lies in daily life," and this he invests with an
interest exclusively his own. " The gods had made Sir
WALTER poetical." HOOK, on the other hand, is the oge
tirist of the parlour awl the drawing-room.

The Frankfort Diet is proceeding in GermaNY
with its counter revolutionary projects! Prussia is
deavouring, through various channels, to convince the
Germans that the smaller States should he united to the
larger ones—that the Constitutions which have here
granted are not suitable—that the inhabitants of the
smaller States would be much happier if under the go'f
vernment of the King of Prussia or the Emperor °,
Austria—lnd, in fine, that the last European arrangernee
of Germany must be disturbed ! Austria, on the otl3!‘
hand, is artfully engaged in getting up disturbances is(
Germany—in encouraging the repetition of the scenes Ot
Frankfort, Hambach, and Tubingen—and thus causing
to be felt and admitted that a new Holy Alliance must L'`
formed—and that the most violent measures must be take 4
against that country. Prussia and Austria are fully agree
that it is not enough to put down the Liberals—to ests:
blish a strict censorship of the press—to dissolve all pow
tical Clubs, Associations, and Secret, Societies—to cl°°:
Universities and to arrest students ; but that Germany 10,!,
he placed under the surveillance of a perpetual and bers!'j
tary Holy Alliance, which shall be ever occuee
in devising means and measures to prevent the spre°,,
of education, journalism, and patriotism. Prue°,
thinks that to divide would be to conquer, and die,
if Austria should be allowed this state, and Prussia th,
other, and so on, that this would be the OA
effectual plan which could be adapted for rooting °0
of Germiny the love of Constitutional Governaleli
and liberal institutions. Austria entertains no ditte'

iathe(pmrenv teenr vll
rence of opinion as to the principal of this measure; b,,tl;
only as to its working, as Austria would be fearful of t'
increasing influence and territory of the King of Prussi°
Their object is, however, the same. They do not differ
as to the end, but only as to the means. Both are firm',

press of liberty, but to aim at securing the succe-s and tu:
perpetuity of despotism. The Diet of Frankfurt is at 01'1
moment occupied with this question. It is vast and ifji:i
portant. Can it succeed ? I believe not ! Germaci b./
aware of the intentions of her oppressors—and thought v
Germans are slow and cold and calculating in their resi'
ance—yet their resistance is sure, well-measured, perselv,,,
ing, and decided.— 0. P. Q.
