Richmond daily Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1842-1861, 1854-05-23

We acknowledges, few days ago, the receipt of a
handsome volume bearing the above tte-but acknowl-
edged it, fear, in paragraph so exceedingly small
aud which was located in obscure corner OF the pa
per- escape the eyes of our readers, even though
aided by the powers of microscope We therefore de-
sire to call public attention it again-believing TO be
work of considerable merit, aud entitled to favorable
consideration.
This volume is the joint production of two intelligent
and liberal minded young ladies' of the North Misses
Mendell and Hcsme Ii embraces series OF letters writ
ten by them during through portions Of Canada
New York, New Jersey Maryland. Virginia, and NORTH
Carolina Its style is lively and agreeable, often pctur
esque and forcibe. Its sentiments and reflections are.
the main, natural and just the observations OF the
thors particularly upon the peculiar institution Of tn,
SJnth what would be expected from educated and
ishtened Northern minds. We see depicted in this vol
OF the imaginary horrors OF slavery which the
notorious Mrs Stowe and individuals of her class take
malignant pleasure in corurng up aud putting in print
for the sole purpose of eItotng dimes from the deludeG
Aboitionsts of the North. Ga the contrary there is
spirit of intelligent inquiry spirit of fairness aud candor
honest and conscientious love of truth pervadng th
volume which, instead of Offending Southern sentiment
and Southern sensbiliy is calculated to inspire the re
spect and the admiration OF the Southern reader
Though may not be aoe agree with all the relec-
tons, nferences and specuiaoDs Of the authors in re
pect to slavery yet rise from the perusa of their worE
with favorable impressions Of their intelligence frank
ness aud mpartiaty, despite the natural preudces
education aud section. 1t often we witness suc
manifestations of hightoned sefrespect and iberay
the part OF Northern commentators upon the institution
OF the South We, therefore, the readily and cheer
fully commend the work before the liberal patronag
Of the public.
