The DIAMOND DICKENs.-Of the last vol
ume of this edition the New York Evening
Post says:
/ Ticknor & Fields have completed their
- Diamond Edition" of Dickens works by
The publication of the fourteenth volume,
which contains - The monumental Tray
eler'' and eight Christmas stories-'Little Be
belle and the Corporal, g Mrs. Lirriper and
the Major - The Death of Edson,' - a. Dr..
Marigold and Sophy,'' &C The Apparition, -
The Boy at Mugby." g Captain Taunton
and Private Doubledick and Mr.. and
Mrs Harry Walmers, Jr'' One hundred
and eighty pages of this volume are devoted
to list of the characters introduced and a
skeleton in brief of the powerful incidents in
the works of Dickens. This is an excellent
feature, and will be of great use to tho ad-
mirers of the novelist when they desire to
revive or revise their recollections of any
pared by Mr. Dickens himself, and is the
first collection that has been made of them.
The author, in an Introductory note, says
- In this volume are brought together va
rious short stories of my writing which have
not yet been collected in England Most of
them reprinted from Christmas numbers
of household Words or Al the Year Round
and represent the portions of those numbers
written by myself as my contribution to-
f wards the execution of my own general de-
sign. They were originally so constructed
that they might express and explain them
selves when republished alone.
