A NOVEL. 0 0

-";
The author, we are convince,i, is young, otherwise we could
ardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
% elf of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, ant 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, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
cn matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has market per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man-
uerses, and Smythes."—Observer.
" Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beadly, 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 conspicuons 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, tile noblest and best of them all."—Morning Post.
