"'East Lynne' has been translated into the Hindustani and Parsee languages, and the success of it has been very great."--DANIEL BANDMANN'S JOURNAL. "I was having a delightful conversation with a clever Indian officer, and listening to his reminiscences of being sent out to serve in China with Gordon. He gave me an account of how he tried to keep the regimental library together under difficulties, and how 'East Lynne' was sent to them from England. Gordon got hold of it, and was fascinated. He used to come riding from a distance, at some risk, to get hold of the volumes as they were to be had."--EXTRACT FROM A LETTER. 2. THE CHANNINGS. _TWO HUNDREDTH THOUSAND._ "'The Channings' will probably be read over and over again, and it can never be read too often."--THE ATHENÆUM. 3. MRS. HALLIBURTON'S TROUBLES. _ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTIETH THOUSAND._ "The boldness, originality, and social scrutiny displayed in this work remind the reader of Adam Bede. It would be difficult to place beside the death of Edgar Halliburton anything in fiction comparable with its profound pathos and simplicity. It is long since the novel-reading world has had reason so thoroughly to congratulate itself upon the appearance of a new work as in the instance of 'Mrs. Halliburton's Troubles.' It is a fine work; a great and artistic picture."--THE MORNING POST. 4. THE SHADOW OF ASHLYDYAT. _ONE HUNDRED AND TENTH THOUSAND._ "'The Shadow of Ashlydyat' is very clever, and keeps up the constant interest of the reader. It has a slight supernatural tinge, which gives the romantic touch to the story which Sir Walter Scott so often used with even greater effect; but it is not explained away at the end as Sir Walter Scott's supernatural touches generally, and inartistically, were."--THE SPECTATOR. "The genius of Mrs. Henry Wood shines as brightly as ever. There is a scene or two between Maria Godolphin and her little girl just before she dies, which absolutely melt the heart. The death-bed scene likewise is exquisitely pathetic."--THE COURT JOURNAL. 5. LORD OAKBURN'S DAUGHTERS. _ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTH THOUSAND._ "The story is admirably told."--THE SPECTATOR. 6. VERNER'S PRIDE. _EIGHTY-FIFTH THOUSAND._ "'Verner's Pride' is a first-rate novel in its breadth of outline and brilliancy of description. Its exciting events, its spirited scenes, and its vivid details, all contribute to its triumph. The interest this work awakens, and the admiration it excites in the minds of its readers, must infallibly tend to the renown of the writer, while they herald the welcome reception of the work wherever skill in construction of no ordinary kind, or a ready appreciation of character, which few possess, can arouse attention or win regard."--THE SUN. 7. ROLAND YORKE. _ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTIETH THOUSAND._
