In her songs, whether in pure English, or in the Cumbrian or Scottish dialect, she is animated, simple, and tender, often touching a chord which thrills a sympathetic string deep in the reader's bosom. It may, indeed, be confidently predicted of several of these lyrics, that they will live with the best productions of their age, and longer than many that were at first allowed to rank more highly.--_Chambers' Journal, 1842._ * * * * * _F. Cap 8vo. Price 2s., in neat Cloth binding._ ROBERT ANDERSON'S CUMBERLAND BALLADS. As a pourtrayer of rustic manners--as a relator of homely incident--as a hander down of ancient customs, and of ways of life fast wearing or worn out--as an exponent of the feelings, tastes, habits, and language of the most interesting class in a most interesting district, and in some other respects, we hold Anderson to be unequalled, not in Cumberland only, but in England. As a description of a long, rapid, and varied succession of scenes--every one a photograph--occurring at a gathering of country people intent upon enjoying themselves in their own uncouth roystering fashion, given in rattling, jingling, regularly irregular rhymes, with a chorus that is of itself a concentration of uproarious fun and revelry, we have never read or heard anything like Anderson's "Worton Wedding."----Whitehaven Herald._ CARLISLE: G.

BY ROGER PIKETAH. We have been greatly entertained by these stories, which reveal to us traits of a humoursome, shrewd, sturdy race, of whom from their geographical isolation, very little has been communicated to us by the compilers of guide books or by local sketchers.--_Carlisle Patriot._ We can honestly say the tales are not spoiled in serving up. They come upon the reader with almost the full force of _viva voce_ recital, and prove conclusively that Roger Piketah is a thorough master of the "mak o' toak" which he has so cleverly manipulated.--_Whitehaven News._ Whoever Roger Piketah may be, he has succeeded in producing a good reflex of some of our Furness traditions, idioms, and opinions; and we venture to predict it will be a favorite at penny readings and other places.--_Ulverston Advertiser._ _F.
