PORTRAITS OF MY MARRIED FRIENDS: OR PEEP INTO
HYMES's KINGDOM By UNCLE Ben.
The title of this book is another example of the
TACT, that promise frequently exceeds performance
The domestic sketches of Uncle Ben show some
faint talent for observation of character; but for
the most part they trite and common place as
his dialogues are vapid and uninteresing Occasion
ally he touches deeper chord; but he rarely surpri
ses the reader with an original thought. STILL the
book is not wholly without merit and NAV be
found we'll worth reading by those who take delight
IN stories descriptive of conugal fangs and petty
household troubles.

EVERY WOMAN HER OWN LAWYER. A private guide
on all matters of Law of essential interest to Wo-
men, &C., &C. BY GEORGE BISHOP.
Here is volume of some three hundred and
seventy-hve pages, w oh is admirably designed to
promote domestic brawls. Ii processes to be, and
doubtless Is complete manual of the legal rights
OF women, and contains, a consequence, many
things which it would be decidedly better for wo-
men not to know. However audabe the object of
the author of this book may have been, its general
tendency is mischievous That every woman should
be made acquainted with what her rights really are
and should be protected against their infringement,
is perfectly just and proper but we doubt whether
the smattering Of knowledge she would acquire by
studying this book, would not be more apt to lead
her astray than tend to her enlightenment

| THE Four SISTERS. A tale of social and domestic
life in Sweden. BY FREDRIKA BREMER. Trans
lated by MARY HowITT.
In all Scandinavia there is no writer of domes-
tic novels that will begin to compare with FREDRIKA
BREMER. How little we knew of the inner life of
the Swedish people until she was introduced to us
by MARY IowITr, and took us by the hand and
showed us the homes and the hearts of her coun-
trymcn E'The Neighbours came to Us like a revela-
ton from the North. All that we knew previously
of Sweden was that BERNADOrrE was king and that
Swedish iron the best in the world OF the
manners and customs of the people we knew abso-
lutely nothing. FREDRIKA BREMER has enlightened
us, she has revealed to many family secret and
taught us to admire the half primitive simplicity,
deep piety, and social hospitality of the descen-
dants of the old Vikingers She tells us that Of all
her works "Thc Four Sisters has the deepest root
in her own life and consciousness All that we
need say is, that it is worthy of her acknowledged
fame.
