A NOVEL. 0 0

-" 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-
guage in which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, is
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
raeterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Dtsraelis, Man-
nerves, 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 voucher of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladies who play conspicuous parts in the tale are
Florence Howard, an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
impulsive genius, passionately fond of music and poetry ; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of them all."—Morning Poet.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
The acknowledged efficacy of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEU-
MATIC PILLS, by the continued series of testimonials which have
been sent to and published by the proprietor for nearly twenty years,
has rendered this medicine the most popular of the present age ; and
in corroboration of which the following extract of a letter, written
by Jolla Mollard Wheeler, Esq., Collector of Customs, Jamaica, hav-
ing been handed by his brother, at Swindon, to Mr. Trout for publi-
cation, will fully confirm.
" I know you have never had occasion to take Blair's Pills, but
let me emphatically tell you, in mercyjto any friend who may suffer
from gout, rheumatic gout, lumbago, sciatica, rheumatism, or any
branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using them.
In this country they are of wonderful efficacy : not only am I person
ally aware of their powers, but I see my friends and acquaintances
receiving unfailing benefit from their use. I would not be without
them on any account. If taken in the early stage of disease they
dissipate it altogether ; if in a later, they alleviate pain and effect a
much speedier cure than by any other means within my knowledge."
Sold by Themes Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.
