The sunny soUTH-"This book is composed of
series Of letters. written in an interesting style
of n narrative, embOdying the most romantic
features Of social life on different kinds of plan
tations. We cnn bear testimony, from our own
personal observation of similar scenes in the
South. to their truthfulness as here depicted.
They are portrayed in vivid, interesting style,
and we would like to see the bool, in the hands
Of thousands of deceived people, who have no
personal knowledge either Of Southerners or
Southern life, except what they have gained from
partisan journals, or those who Intentionally have
written TO deceive" Republic, BuFdlo, ~ Y. ''
The sunny SoUTH,-''This volume is in the
form Of letters. They give, so far as we can
Judge, faithful pictures Of Southern life, and arc
penned without prejudice. They present scenes
quite different from an "Uncle fom's Cabin, !" the
pictures presented here nre quite graphic and we
think the portraits painted arc very nearly natu-
raj colOrs. - Boston Duiiy Bee.
The SUNNY SoUTH.-"We have rarely peepcd
within the covers of more appetizing volume.
Although not intended as an answer to tho foul
untrctLs in the Uncle Tom trash of the last ten
years il neSHr rtheless does numerically hurl back
to their source all lies Of such nature, and We
are glad to believe thar me BOOK Wlll be read III
thousands of Northern homes. The south also
should take it benignantly, for, independanDy Vl
its truthfuness and integrity, it is one Of the live
liest and most entertaining books Of the year.
