of the anthoress herself, who xssSsaaevs was
early transplanted from New England to d:or-
gia; and admirably. has she sketched the rcou-
liar institutions and social features of 10th her
native and adopted homes. The hero of the
book is a planter to the manor; and every inch
gentleman. He visits the North, cloutlcd lv
the saddeSt of all sorrows-a divorce without
death-the burial of living wife in the grave
of shame and eishonor He seeks solacc and
solitude in quiet New England village, ac-
companed only hy his faithful slave Albert,
whose fidelity to his master is too strong for the
seductive arts of the Aholitonists. On bright
Sabbath morning in June, when
Every gale is peace, and every grove il melody,
he enters the little church to minglc in the sim
pie worship of the Puritans, when a sweet voice
| from the choir falls upon his sad heart like a ray
| from Heaven. The damsc whose duIcim,r
tones shed balm upon the wounded spirit of the
stranger, shines upon him like an angel Of light
and love. She is the belle of the vIlagc-the
flower of the valley-thc nun Of that secluded
cloistcr; but she is the daughter of an ultra
Abolition editor and lecturer, who has often
publicly declared that he would rather follow
his daughter to her grave than that she should
become the wife of Il slave owner But love-
which IS even stronger than death, conqucrs all
prcju,lices: and, to make long story short the
beautiful village maiden became the wealthy
S l>fluc; ana the scene changes from
! Massachusetts TO Gcorgia-from the granite
hills and lun@-dcstroying atmosphere of New
England to the cotton fields and 1owcr-sccntcd
hretZeS of the sunny South The incidents are
we'll varied; the scenes beautifully dcscribed;
and the interest admiralty kept up. But the
mor0l of the look is its highest merit 1t brings
| the south and the North together; unitcs them
i'll the tcndercst of relations; enables them 10
look into each others eyes, and to read others
hearts. Let the fanatics of both extremes read
it; and if they have any cardor left in their
higotryeaten sons, they will lay their hands
upon their mouths and their mouths in the
dnst, and confess themselves 1cnitcnfTv Tciorc
God and man for the injustice they have done
to Their fallbe fellow mortals by ignorant and
wicked denunc!atlons of Shareholders on the
one side and Abolitionists on the other
The Ih nfer's Norfheru Bridc' should hc
as welcome as the dove of peace to every fire
side in the Union. 1t cannot he read without
a mostcnIng OF the eyes, sotteniny Of the heart
and a mitigation OF sectional and most ul!chris-
tian prej"dices Ere1~nge Paper.
