for the whole reading world. Goldsmith has
shed over the world the tenderest light of his
genius, and the pastoral scenes in it

any other writer of fiction. AS Sir Walter
Scott said of it, awe read Vicar of Wakefield in
youth and in age, and return to it again and
again, aid bless the memory OF an author who
contrives so well to reconcile US to human
ture." The book, throughout its fascinating
pages, EXHIBITS all the characteristic traits of

special charm of the author of THE Scarlet Let

genius of the author
