SrANHorE BuRL RIaa.--T he Jesuits in our
Homes. A Novel. By Helen Dhu. Being
published by Stringer G Townsend, 2s2,
Broadway N. Y,
This is an American Romance, in single
l2mo volume of over four hundred pages, illus
trated by the best artists. 1t delineates. with
graphic power, the subtle intrigues Of:the Jes-
uits in America, in our Homes, in ociety, in
po litics, and in Government. The corrupting
and degrading intrigues of unprncipled politi-
cal demagogues, ofall parties, are brought in
to full view, under the intolerable blazs of
light; while the artistic developments of the
plot, impart to the work the most brilliant char.
actsristics Of the finest romaIoes, 1t has been
subj ectsd TO the severest and most enlightened
criticism; and several of the most accomplished
scholars Who have read the manuscript with
care, have all concurred in the opinion that it
| is the most dramatic and powerful novel that
has been written in this co untry--tbat it must
have an almost unprecedented circulation, simp-
ly upon its merits as highly wrought work Of
sction. But written, as it has been, with the
specific object of enlghtening the mind, and
stirring the hearts of great and free people,
they Go not hesitate to predict for it, such cir
culstion as no other American book has had
The work is written under the influence of a
sentiment of nationality, and it will express the
feelings OF Just as many Americans as the couA"
