"Mr. Habberton has given us a truly readable and delightful selection from a series of volumes that ought possibly never to go out of fashion, but which by the reason of their length and slightly antiquated form there is danger of our overlook."--_Liberal Christian._ BAYARD TAYLOR'S NOVELS. =I. HANNAH THURSTON.= A Story of American Life. One vol. 12mo, $2. Household edition. $1 50 "If Bayard Taylor has not placed himself, as we are half inclined to suspect, in the front rank of novelists, he has produced a very remarkable book--a really original story, admirably told, crowded with life-like characters, full of delicate and subtle sympathies, with ideas the most opposite to his own, and lighted up throughout with that playful humor which suggests always wisdom rather than, mere fun."--_London Spectator._ =II. JOHN GODFREY'S FORTUNES.= Related by Himself. 12mo, $2. Household edition. $1 50 "'John Godfrey's Fortunes,' without being melodramatic or morbid, is one of the most fascinating novels which we have ever read. Its portraiture of American social life, though not flattering, is eminently truthful; its delineation of character is delicate and natural; its English, though sometimes careless, is singularly graceful and pleasant."--_Cleveland Leader._ III. THE STORY OF KENNETT.= One vol. 12mo, $2. Household edition. $1 50 ="Mr. Hayard Taylor's book is _delightful and refreshing readings_, and a great rest after the crowded artistic effects and the conventional interests of even the better kind of English novels."--_London Spectator._ "As a picture of rural life, we think this novel of Mr. Taylor's excels any of his previous productions."--_N. Y. Evening Post._ "A tale of absorbing interest."--_Syracuse Standard._ =IV. JOSEPH AND HIS FRIEND.= A Story of Pennsylvania. 12mo, cloth, $2. Household edition. $1 50 "In Hayard Taylor's happiest vein."--_Buffalo Express._ "By far the best novel of the season."--_Cleveland Leader._ =V.

Household edition. $1 50 * * * * * BAYARD TAYLOR'S TRAVELS. =ELDORADO;= or, Adventures in the Path of Empire (Mexico and California). 12mo, $2. Household edition. $1 50 "To those who have more recently pitched their tents in California, the narrative of Taylor will have interest as assisting them to appreciate the wondrous changes that have been effected in this region since the days of turmoil, excitement, and daring speculation of which the tourist speaks."--_Sacramento Union._ =CENTRAL AFRICA.= Life and Landscape from Cairo to the White Nile. Two plates and cuts 12mo, $2. Household edition. $1 50 "We have read many of Bayard Taylor's readable books--and he never wrote one that was not extremely interesting--but we have never been so well pleaded with any of his writings as we are with the volume now before us, 'A Journey to Central Africa.'"--_Binghamton Republican._
