A NOVEL. 0 D.
•' The author, we are convinced. is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
h.tif of his heroes and heroines. fie is a writer of genius, inspired
by a hi,th standard of morality and religion, and by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage i which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobile of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
haa marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraells, Man-
nerses, and Smythes."—Observes.
" gilwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages 3f exceed-
in; 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. 01 the cha-
racter of Amelia !loss we have already spoken, and the extract we
hav4given above is t4e surest voucher of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladfes who play coaspicuons parts in the tale are
Florence Howard, an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
impnisive genius, passionately fond of music axd poetry; and Julia
alaitland, the noblest and best of them ail."—Morning Post.
