But remember our Savior's blest word,
That they who will love Him, and trust in

Are forever at home with the Lord.

And enhancing the vision see,
A glorious city so wOndrouS and fair,
And the pearly gates op'ning for me.

Far away to that land of sweet rest,
Ineffable bliss, for my Savior is nigh;

4 New American Novel. by Hester Edwards
Porch.

A New American Novel. by Hester Edward.
Porch.
This is eminently novel for the
times; it has evidently been written
with the purpose of exposing the ten.
dency in the present day towards lift
ing aesthetic culture to an eminence
above moral and even religious con.
| siderations. 1t undertakes to show
in short that physical and moral
beauty do not always go together, and
that fatal errors may arise from the
confusion between aesthetics and eth
les so prevalent in the literature of the
day.
Our authors method of doing this is
to make her hero a man OF wealth,
who is the Idedl Fanatic of her imagi-
nation. He is the descendant of a
race of wealthy but dissolute ances-
tors, the last ofwhom had squandered
the immense wealth he inherited, and
left to Harold st. George the task of
retrieving the family fortunes by his
genius and energy. The description
given of this gentleman in the second
chapter will sufficiently illustrate the
authors purpose regarding him:
Mr.. ST. George did not himself real
ize that he had inherited any of those
vices which had so nearly proved the
destruction of his race, but notwith-
standing this Inconsistencies, was the
veriest slave to one of the most Can
gerous and subtle of them, an almost
insane love of the beautiful in both
art and nature. He called it the wor-
ship of the ideal; and utterly ignoring
its grossness, by every sophistry reason
could frame, had taught himself to be-
lieye that physical and spiritual per-
lection were inseperable.
1t is the purpose OF the novel to re-
flute this mistake of the hero's, and
this is done by depicting his behavior
under the conflicting influences of
two ladies; one. of them, Miss Clare
Vivien, a lovely girl, whose affections
he had unconsciously won when she
was very young; the other, Miss Maud
Tremaine, splendidly beautiful, but
morally hateful. How this purpose is
worked out her readers will have a
delightful task in finding out, and we
will not chill their interest by prema-
turely disclosing the fact.
One criticism and one only we will
venture: We can't help thinking she
has overdrawn the Wickedness of Miss
Maud. OF course, the drift of the novel
required that her brilliant physical
charms should be cOntrasted by signal
moral obliquity, but we can hardly
contemplate with patience the idea
that Maude Tremaine has her anti
type in actual life. Miss Porch can
not surely have met with her, but
must have evolved her from her in
ternal consciousness.
Clare Vivien on the other hand, is
a delightful portrait, and the aesthetic
but rather weak-mined hero is drawn
with a skillful hand.
We commend the book rs an enter
tanning, and in some respects, instruct !
i've novel to our novel readers.
