of Arthur Hugh Clough._"--FRASER'S MAGAZINE.

modern fiction._"--GLOBE. "_Told with delightful vivacity,
thorough appreciation of life, and a complete knowledge of
character._"--MANCHESTER EXAMINER.

=Culmshire Folk.=--By IGNOTUS. Three vols. Crown 8vo. 31_s._ 6_d._
"_Its sparkling pleasantness, its drollery, its shrewdness, the
charming little bits of character which frequently come in, its
easy liveliness, and a certain chattiness which, while it is never
vulgar, brings the writer very near, and makes one feel as if the
story were being told in lazy confidence in an hour of idleness by
a man who, while thoroughly good-natured, is strongly humorous, and
has an ever-present perception of the absurdities of people and
things._"--SPECTATOR.

8vo. cloth. 5_s._

endeavour._"--AUTHOR'S PREFACE.
