MEssRs. EpIToRs ALLOW me 10 call the
attention OF your readers to new publication
Although there may be no novelty even in the
announcement of novel in these days of book
writing, yet there may be pecularities in the
appearance of some that entitle them to special
notice. Some writers have the advantage of
prestige, and the works OF others arc heralded
by the patronage of the press, or the eclM of
borrowed fame while Others have to earn their
way by the charm of their own excellence. This
is the case with little book entitled Vanity
and Virtue" written by Rose Barrett. The author
has not been ashamed to append to the work her
own real name. And pretty name IL y. 100.
There is something in name; and Rose Barrett
certainly does strike you as i'oehc there Is some
thing in 1t both modest and fragrant And who
is she that thus comes forth limidly, but I'M
blushingy, to occupy place amid the living
writer's of the day2 We happen to know our
dvthoress. She is young girl, whose home is
rural and sequestered. She does not claim the
higher advantages of scholastic culture, nor the
ampler facilities for literary endowment, which
so many of the less gifted enjoy ; and yet she
has given to the public little book-significant
in title-enchanting in contents, Tor which she
need not feel abashed. We have read the work
and realized in the perusal pleasant treat, and
do not hesitate to pronounce 1t one that displays
considerable taste and skill in its structure. Its
characters are well chosen, its plot admirably
| woven, while its diction is good and Its senti-
menls pure and noble There are biographies!
errors ia the book, and some faults OF grammar,
| which closer review by the author and better
attention of the compositor might have relieved.
We speak of it as book superior in merit 10
many a contemporary romance that has found
| favor with lovers OF light literature, and If the
| fair authoress will continue to cultivate her gifts,
we are not afraid to predict that In a few years
she will give to the world work that will
demonstrate her genius, and yield gorgeous
| harvest of which :" Vanity and Virtue" is tho
F" first fruits"
A star has appeared in the literary armament
not of the first magnitude, it is truc,-but never
theless star, and henceforth ii muet be reckonet
among the stellar lights. INDEX.

The Shiyering Season,

II is impossible to suppose that any human eeing

actually suffering from the distressing complaint ne
glect to edopt the certain means OF cure 1t ought
to be known in every locality subject to this scourge
or which Is infested with remttent fever, or aay
other epidemic produced by malaria, that HOSTEL

generates these distempers. This admirable inyigc-
mathematics, agreeable, and possessing rarer me-
dicinal virtues than any other tonic at present
known, will break up The paroxsysms OF intermittent
or remittcnt fever in from fortyeight hours to ten

where periodical ftyers have been combatted with
this powerful vegetable Choogogue. In thieyish

to be pervaded by ,era poison they seldom take the
