TH H E R E T • I C.
Translated from' the 'Russian of LAJETCHNIKOFF,
by THOMAS. -8.--sB.4w, B.A. of Cambridge, Adjunct
Professor of English- Literature in the Imperial Lyceum of
Tsirskoe Selo.
The-first volitine of The Heretic' is as good as one of
Scott's •romanees. - It has this draw-back, of course, that
.Lajerehn.koff follows Scott : but without a doubt we say of the
Russian, that the Great Romancer has had no such following in
England. • • • • The translator of the book before
us is. well qualified, by his attainments and zeal, to attempt the
naturalisation of this literature in England."—Examiner, Jan.
27, 1844. ''
" The industry and talent of Mr. Shaw has, in the volume
before us, furnished us with a Russian tale of the first merit,
rendere;(l directly into English, arid 'preserved, as far as the
genius-of 'our language will. permit, with all its original beau-
ties and characteristics."—Morning Post, Jan. 18, 1844.
We are inclined to believe that molt of our readers will
agree with us in thinking that if M. Lajetchnikoff has suc-
ceeded in faithfully illustrating the.vranners of the age of Ivan
the Great, he has also shown that he possesses brilliancy of
fancy, fervour of thought, and elevation of sentiment, as well
as knowledge of the movements of the heart, revealed only, to
the few who have been initiated into nature's mys•eries.
Blackwood, Feb , 1844.
" This is an historical romance. It possesses a freshness and
a novelty which canr.ot but commend it to every reader. Its
characters are drawn with such simplicity of outline—if we
may hazard the expression—that they at once fix the atten-
tion ..... . • . The, work has more the air and fresh-
ness of an original production than the bald stiffness of a mere
translation."—Atlas, Jan. 20, 1844.
" Mr. Shaw has here introduced us to a most extraordinary
and striking romance, by a Russian author; of considerable et-
lebrity."—Morning Chronicle, Jan.
27, 1644.

CABBURN'S ANTI-DOLORIC OIL.
RHEUMATIC GOUT.
The following letter has been addressed to Mr. Cabburn
from J. Rogers, Esq., the present Mayor of Stafford :
" Dear Sir,—At the request of Mr. Thorpe, I send you the
accompanying statement, being anxious to recommend your
medicine to others, and I could furnish .you myself with many
similar testimonies to induce persons afflicted with rheumatism,
gout, lumbago, &c., to avail themselves of the surprising effects
of your valuable discovery.:4 am, dear Sir, yours, respectfully,
S. ROGERS, Mayor of Stafford."
" To Mr. CsaauaN,
" Dear Sir,-1 was induced, in August last year, to' try a.
bottle of your Oil, in consequence of the excruciating pain I
felt in my hips, and which 1 had continued to feel for seven or
eight years, so much that at times I could not walk, and at
others I have not been- able to help myself from the loss of
strength and agonising pain in any shoulders. But, thank God,
I have now found a certain cure for my affliction in your very
valuable Oil. Dear Sir, make what use you please of this letter,
and if any name is made to me, I will personally, or by letter,
satisfy all inquiries.—l am, dear Sir, &c„
‘, GEORGE THORPE, Forgate-street, Stafford."
