An ExGLIsH OPINION on Az AMERICAN
BooK.-The London Saturday Review, in an
article on the art OF light writing by way OF
illustration volunteers the following ON Will
lis Convalescent: ...s ....t ..s.
"But no one should write a book which il all
Introduction, and all about nothing. We have.
however, lately come across such a book. 1t
is called the ConValeseent, and is by MIR. N.
T.. Willis, of American notori<ty. You open
the book and find that il begins with letter
10 n certain General Morris The letter says
that il is freezing that Willis has got cold;
that Willis pig is ill; that Willis chickens are
afraid OF Willis cat. The letter ends by say :
ing that Willis must send it To the post You
pass on to ths next letter Willis cold is no
better; the frost continues; the pig IL much the
same; the chickens are still restless; Willis
must take this letter 10 the post. A third let-
ter, containing equally impor tant in formation,
follows. There is no stopping and no change.
Willis goes on through the whole book record
ing all that has happened to him or Inns not
happened to him in an American country
house some distance up the Hudson. Ii is in
vain that We expect that Smiths drag must be
going TO stop. 1t rolls on and on until the
book is finished. We never get beyond Willis
cold, and pig, and chickens. As q light con-
versationai way of introducing subject, we
can fiincy an author publishing these doInes-
tic details, but that they should be put all by
themselves, without any visible PURPOSE is
curious. And what makes II still more odd Is,
that these letters were sent separately To a
New York paper as soon as they were writ
ten. There is no reason to suppose that Nor.
ris saw the letters addressed to him un iii they
were placed before him printed. Tho rcade n
OF New York papers must haye a singular
taste, ~ hat should We think il Mr. Dickens
wrote to the Times 70 state simply that he was
out Of Goals and intended To- order somsl Ii
is most useful that writer should learn ths
art OF writing about the little things that per.
sonally interest him, and OF weaving sneh de-
scriptions into the exposition Of importAul
subjectsi but light beginnings without any
sense, or purpose, or sequel whateyer,a ,are posi-
lively foolish.
