THE FAIRY GODMOTHERS and other Tales.
By Mrs. ALFRED GATTY.
"Her love for Fairy literature has led Mrs. Alfred Gatty to
compose four pretty little moral stories, in which the fairies are
gracefully enough used as machinery. They are slight, but well
written, and the book is altogether very nicely put out of
hand."--_Guardian._

PLAIN SERMONS, addressed to a Country Congregation. By the late
Rev. EDWARD BLENCOWE, Curate of Teversal, and formerly Fellow of
Oriel College, Oxford.
"Their style is simple, the sentences are not artfully
constructed, and there is an utter absence of all attempt at
rhetoric. The language is plain Saxon language, from which 'the
men on the wall' can easily gather what it most concerns them to
know."
"Again, the range of thought is not high and difficult, but level,
and easy for the wayfaring man to follow. It is quite evident that
the author's mind was able and cultivated, yet, as a teacher to
men of low estate, he makes no display of eloquence or
argument."--_Theologian._
"Plain, short, and affectionate discourses."--_English Review._
