A NOVEL. 0 0

The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy is be-
half et his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, anal 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
matters that are the prima mobilla of the actions which cha-
racterisenature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though be
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraells, Man-
verses, and Smythes."—Obeerver.

"` Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and Is written in pure and forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en
gag`zg 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
The other ladies who playsonspicuons parts in the tale are
Florence Howard, an intellectual beaaty; Jessie Gcrdon, a wild and
impulsive genius, passionately fond of music and poetry; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of them all."—Morning Post.
