From the London Art Union

" We have recently tried some Lead Pencils manufactured
by Messrs. Rowney and Co., which we can confidently recom-
mend. Their quality is good, both as respects colour and
firmness ; they are free from grit, do not easily break, and,
moreover, are remarkably cheap."

From George Barnard, Esq., Head Drawing-Master to Rugb
School.

" 85, Great Portland-street, London.
" Gentlemen,—ln reply to your inquiry respecting my opi-
nion of the quality and value of your new Pencils, I do not
hesitate to say, that I find them excellent in all respects, with
entire freedom from grit, and working well whether hard or
soft. These qualities, combined with their moderate price,
render them very valuable to Artists and their Pupils.
"Truly yours, " GEORGE BARNARD."

NEW LOCAL NOVEL.
THE SLAVE CAPTAIN,
_ A LEGEND OF LIVERPOOL.

By JOHN DIGNAN,
Author of " A Romance of Liverpool Life ;" with Illustrations

by Landells.
•
" We had occasion to speak in warm terms of Mr. Dignan's
Romance of Liverpool Life,' but the present work of fiction
far transcends, in our opinion, the former one."—Albion.
" The editorial habits of Mr. Dignan have insured condensa-
tion and a striking brevity of detail, while the hand of the
practised litterateur is to be traced in the clever setting of the
ornaments and the elaborate polish of the entire work."—
Liverpool Journal.
" We do not often read books thrmigh ; hut we have this—
really and truly. The beauty of the book, added to its local
interest, is its originality."—Liverpool Lion.
" Our practical knowledge of Mr. Dignan's talents and style
of composition induces us to recommend him to prosecute his
present career in imaginative literature."—European Times.
" The Slave Captain' is written in a graceful, pleasing style;
the plot of it is interesting and well developed, and the hand
of the practised literary man is to be traced throughout"—
Liverpool Mail. _ _

" Mr. Dignan has displayed all the requirements of a no-
velist ; skill in construction, great power of conception and
delineation of character, combined with perfect purity of taste
and expression. Above all, the moral conveyed throughout
the work is excellent."—Lirerpool Standard.
