MARIE ANTOINETTE.

MARIE ANToINETTE AND HER soN. An his
tortcal novel. By l.. Muhlbach with illustra-
tions. New York: ID. Appleton 4 Co.
Messrs. d. Appleton & Co. deserve the
heartiest thanks of the reading public for re-
producing in America so promptly and so
admirably the historical romanoes of Louisa
Muhlbach, which are unquestionably the most
complete and meritorious works of the kind
that have been written since the days of Sir
Walter Scott, and which cannot be too widely
read. 1t would be well, indeed, II such books
might take the place altogether of the ocean
OF fwishy-washy, sentimental, sensational trash
which floods the land, and we believe we
cannot better entertain and pioneer our readers
than by making few extracts from the latest
American issue of this invaluable SERIES The
mournfully exquisite story of Marie Antoinette
is one of snose which will increase in mean-
oholy pathos with every passing generation,
and jdst now it becomes fraught with unusual
interest to us because living representation
of the beautiful and unhappy queen is to be
soon given us by Madame Ristori the only
actress in the world, probably, who has the
courage to attempt first, and succeed in, such
q delineation.
