popular writers Whoim prOd'aptiiiiia have hitherto appeared in
a periodical and Bel shed 'foil; We' authEir of " Harry Lor-
requer," and "—Arles. O'Malley," is certainty the one whose
dashing sketches, are most adapted :,for a continuous
perusal, and his adniirers will be doubtless glad to

after month, for a portion of the story ; but that it will be
placed in their hands in a complete shape, in 3 volumes,
with, for the first time, the illustrations of the inimitable
George Cruikshank. " Arthur O'Leary," we hear, is likely
to be considered the most lively and diverting of all Mr.
Lever's works, as his hero's " wanderings" extend to France,
