LITERATURE.

Tait's Edinburgh Magazine.

Every Man his Own Trumpeter. By George Thorn-
bury, author of the " Songs of the Cavaliers and
Roundheads," " Art and Nature at Home and
Abroad," &c. 3 vols. Hurst and Blackett.
It is seldom that the lovers of fiction meet with
so brilliant and spirited a romance. It is through-
out replete with life and vivacity, but as it proceeds
on its course the interest deepens, anct the attention
of the reader is excited to the utmost, whether his
feelings are those of admiration for the courage of
the young warrior, or of sympathy for his sufferings
and indignation at his wrongs. The career of
Cmsar de Mirabel is one well calculated to attract.
He was possessed of many great qualities ; the
follies of youth did not obscure the brightness of
his name, while the voice of renown early sounded
the exploits of his daring spirit. There is some-
thing fascinating in the records of those days of the
" Grand Monarquo," despite their drawbacks and
imperfections ; they seem to glitter in the pages of
history, made radiant with glory, beauty, and grace.
The courtly cavaliers, who were alike the pride of
camps and the ornament of palaces, are eminently
fitted to be the heroes of fictitious legends or ima-
ginary chronicles.

" Oh, never yet was theme so meet for roundel or romance,
As the ancient aristocracy, the chivalry of France."
The two cousins, Mirabel and Bellerose, who figure
prominently in these pages, meet with some strange
adventures, than which none arc so memorable as
those they encountered in what might be termed
the living tomb of the Bastille. Mirabel had the
misfortune to offend the Lieutenant of Police, who
watched his hour and wreaked his vengeance on
his hasty and impetuous enenrr, by trans-
ferring him from. the society of his friends to
the solitude of the house of terrors, of which
he was a janissary. There is a great deal
met with concerning the inhabitants of the Bastille,
which is nevertheless entertaining, but it is in the
account of the escape that the excitement is awak-
ened and the interest becomes most intense. The
two cousins, for Bellerose had been also incarcerated,
were surrounded by sleeping guards, beneath them
there rose the sound of revelry from those in-dwellers
of the prison who were not aware of the momentous
drama enacting above. Courage and prudence alone
could have enabled them to pass the sentinels at
the outer gates with the bearing suitable to their
disguise. 'When they thought themselves secure,
all seemed lost for a moment by a dog recognising
them, but they contrived to surmount that obstacle
and stood outside the fearful stronghold. A more
inspiriting page is before us when the war sounds
the summons to the fight, and Mirabel hastens to
encounter tangible enemies in the light of day—an
exchange he willingly makes for the deadly foes
who strike in the night and let not their deeds be
known—not that he is then free from the shafts of
malice ; in his regiment was a despicable man
named Lazare, related to D'Argenson, the lieutenant
of police. This man did not come so much in his way
at first, but at a more critical period he nearly
effected his ruin. Some of the martial characters
are described in a powerful manner. The stern old
colonel, who was nevertheless an enthusiast in all
points connected with military honour, and who
hailed with a stern joy any soldier worthy of the
name ; the demure Major Bondy, who, in peace,
was an object of ridicule to the critical bserver for
hie peculiarities, but in the field of battle seemed
transformed into a conquering hero, the herald of
victory, appear life-like portraits, so replete are
they with fire and energy. The spirit of Mirabel
early recommended him to these discriminating
censors, and he was thus secured the post of honour-
able danger in many an engagement. He was at
last appointed governor of a besieged city, and in the
walls of the citadel had ample opportunities of
learning the soldier's hardest lesson, that of endur-
ance. He whose spirit would have upheld him in
any reverse, whose . daring could have led him
through hosts of levelled spears, quailed not at the
presence of guant famine, and did not yield up his
charge till necessity compelled him to do so.
Treachery had been at work, end more than the
strength of the besiegers had undermined the forces
of the gallant defenders of St. Damien. Caesar de
Mirabel was not one of those who tread a royal
road to fame, or become distinguished without
themselves knowing why, he had to pass through
many an ordeal before he could rest, his laurels
won and his renown established. He met with a
chilling repulse instead of an approving welcome,
when he was presented before the authorities, and
he found that with a frame worn with fatigue and
famine, and a mind harassed by heavy cares, and
overwhelming responsibilities, he must again urge
war against a secret enemy, His was not the
spirit that faints within, although then, if ever
there seemed an excuse for such a feeling, he roused
himself as for a dying effort and animated by the
courage of despair he prepared as a forlorn hope to
fight the battle of his own fair-fame, attacked and
traduced by adepts in cunning, treachery, and
deceit. He was at last successful, and amid the
triumphant congratulations of his friends he was
received with those honours which as truly belong
to the constancy that bravely sustains reverses, as
to the courage that boldly ensures success. Belle-
rose is not so conspicuous as his friend, but his
character possesses a charm all its own in grace
and kindliness. He seemed to appear in the most
unexpected manner in the hour of emergency, ready
to join in any danger, or assist at any hazardous
endeavour, increasing pleasure by his lively sym-
pathy, or lightening the burden of care by his
ready wit, and efficient assistance. The heroine,
Aurora, does not appear much on the scene, but she
is a delightful protraiture, attracting by her grace
and vivacity, and singularly unfitted to become a
denizen of the convent to which fate she had been
condemned at an early age. Her old aunt is a most
amusing sketch, her advent strikes terror to all the
household, and peace and happiness fly fast before
her footsteps. It is pleasing to find her at last
outwitted by her emissaries, whom she believed so
perfect. This work has a fair prospect of success ;
its characters are striking, its plot skilful, and its
style flowing. It contains some passages of excit-
ing interest, and some that arc sketched in a most
masterly manner. The adjuncts of time and circum-
stance are not wanting to imr art additional attrac-
tions, but are so rendered as to increase its
brilliancy and heighten its charm. It seems a
page of The past unfolded before us in its chi-
valric splendour, and a record of stirring scenes
whosemerit will long dwell in the memory of its
readers.

Ethel Beranger. By Caroline Gifford Phillipson,
authoress of " Lonely Hours," &c. 2 vols.
Newby.
This is a story of the old romantic style, of which
it is perhaps a favourable specimen, as it is unim-
peachable m its morality, and the plot is in some
respects uncommon. The heroines are represented
as beautiful and perfect in character, though suffer-
ing from the persecutions of evil-minded men and
uncongenial destinies. The heroes are not quite so
attractive, but as the worst of them awakes to a
sense of his misconduct before his death the reader
has no right to complain. It is a story very- well
calculated to enlist the sympathies and awake the
interest of a numerous class of novel readers, who
might ttrtainly find many similar works of a less
harmless character.

This magazine contains its usual attractive
variety. It opens with a paper on the recent emi-
gration statistics, and strongly upholds female
emigration as most desirable for both countries.
It is followed by the continuation of the interesting
story of " Etoile." "An Afternoon on Ballarat"
gives a graphic picture of Australian lifer. The
papers on "Woman and Womankind" are continued
with their usual sense and judgment. The school-
mistress is the subject of this number, and the
author points out forcibly the serious responsibili-
ties of such a position—the widespread results for
good or evil that follow from her conduct. Another
series of papers, " Tangled Talk," generally repays
perusal. A brief memoir of the brave but ill-fated
Count de Lally will be read with interest. There
are several other papers of varying merits.

The Art Journal. No. XLV.
The chief plates in this number represent the
Marriage of St. Catherine, from Van Dyck ; the
Farm at Laaken, a charming scene, from a picture
by Rubens ; and an engraving from the statue of
the late Lord Fitzgibbon, as "The Young Hussar,"
by P. M‘Dowell, R.A. The remainder of the jour-
nal is full of attractions for the lovers of art. An
interesting memoir of M. Le Jenne, among the
papers on British artists, has several woodcuts of
his graceful groups of little ones. Mr. and Mrs.
S. C. Hall's "Book of the Thames" continues with
unabated interest, giving us views of those stately
old mansions which used to stand, with their plea-
sant gardens sloping down to the water's edge,
where the noise and turmoil of a commercial tho-
roughfare is now constantly sounding. An illus-
trated essay on the "Objects of Decorative Art in
South Kensington Museum," will also'attraet the.
reader. All topics of the month connected with art
and the development of the public taste receive fair
consideration.

The Photographic Art trournal. Nos. IV., V., and

King William-street.
VI. William Lay,
This elegant and beautiful addition to our artistic
literature is one thtit is likely to become an imme-
diate favourite with all persons of refined and culti-
vated tastes. Each number contains two or three
photographs ; one a portrait, the other, some
familiar scene, such as Windsor Castle, the New
Suspension Bridge, or the scene of Gray's " Elegy,"
the beautiful churchyardlpifitoke Fogle. Among
