THE NEW NOVEL, " WOODLEIGH." By the
author of " Wildflower," "One and Twenty," &c. 3 vole.
The very agreeable impression which this writer has
left upon the public mind will not be diminished by ' Wood-
leigh.' Here we find the same felicitous portraiture of
character the same power of extracting its romance from
ordinary life ; and the same skill in story-telling which
were admired in his previous novels. We find also closer
adherence to the probabilities of life than in ' Wildflower,'
while the author dives deeper into the human passions.' The
book has sterling.meriti _IA is likely.. to sustain and extend
an already high reputation,"— The Press.
