“The great moral lesson inculcated by this book is indicated by its title; and while it is prominent enough through the whole volume, it comes out at the close with most impressive effect. We need not say it is a lesson which every human being is the wiser and the better for learning. We cordially recommend the work to all who would desire to form a sober and rational estimate of the world’s enjoyments.”—_Albany Evening Journal._ =SOWING AND REAPING=: or What will Come of It? by MARY HOWITT. 1 vol. 18mo., plates. “We commenced it with the intention of just looking it over for the purpose of writing a cursory notice; but we began to read, and so we went on to the finis. It is very interesting: the characters are full of individuality.”—_New-Bedford Mercury._ =STRIVE AND THRIVE=: a Tale by MARY HOWITT. 1 vol. 18mo., plates. “The mere announcement of the name of the authoress, will doubtless bring any of her productions to the immediate notice of the public; but Strive and Thrive is not a book for children only, but can be read with pleasure and advantage by those of a more mature age. It fully sustains the reputation of its predecessors. The style is easy and flowing, the language chaste and beautiful, and the incidents of the tale calculated to keep up the interest to the end.”—_New-York Courier & Enquirer._ =HOPE ON, HOPE EVER=: or the Boyhood of Felix Law: by MARY HOWITT. 1 vol. 18mo. “A very neat volume with the above title, and the farther annunciation that it may be called Tales for the People and their Children, has been written by Mary Howitt, whose name is so favourably known to the reading community.” “This volume like all others that emanate from the pen of this lady, is extremely interesting; the characters are naturally drawn, while the feeling and passion displayed, give the work a higher rank than is usually allotted to Nursery Tales.”—_Commercial Advertiser._ =THE LOOKING GLASS FOR THE MIND=: or Intellectual Mirror, being an elegant collection of the most delightful little stories and interesting tales: chiefly translated from that much admired work L’ami des Enfans; with numerous wood cuts—the twentieth edition. 1 vol. 18mo. The stories here collected are of a most interesting character, since virtue is constantly represented as the fountain of happiness, and vice as the source of every evil—as a useful and instructive Looking Glass, we recommend it for the instruction of every youth, whether Miss or Master; it is a _mirror_ that will not flatter them or lead them into error; it displays the follies and improper pursuits of youthful hearts, points out the dangerous paths they sometimes tread, and clears the way to the _temple of honour and fame_. =THE SETTLERS AT HOME=: by HARRIET MARTINEAU. 1 vol. 18mo.
