RECENT FICTION.

The new story by Mrs. Harriet Prescott Spofford
entitled @The Marquis of Carabas" tRoberts
Brothers), is a romance Of a daring and highly col
ored description, in which nature and probability
nre purposey put aside fer the sake OF thrilling in
cdent and picturesque scenery. The class OF fiction
to which it belongs, though not high one. is
legitimate, and Mrs. Spshord has produced speci-
men which will do no discredit to her luxurant i'm
aginatlon and dramatic ingenuity. The conception
of the reformed old SLAYER guarding his secret from
the adopted son upon whom he layishes his wealth
and his Affection and prosecuted by villanous
companion OF his evil days recalls the central idea
OF Great Expectations" bat the resemblance is
probably accidental, and the mode of treatment is
original.
1T is an odd coincidence that the latest story of
the Ronnd- Robin Series, Leone James X. Osgood
a. Col should turn upon a device very similar to
that of The Marquis Of Csrabas" Here 1t 10 with
