Mrs. Lenox was standing where they had left her. When she saw the girl returning, pale, repressed, all the sparkle gone, she went to her, and put her arms round her; Claudia laid her head down upon the other's shoulder. Thus they stood for several moments in silence. Then, still without speaking, Claudia went away. When Mrs. Marcy reached the stairway which led down to her own apartment, on the other side of the hall bridge, "Why, where is Claudia?" she said. "Here I am," said her niece, appearing from the darkness. "You will come down with us for a moment, won't you, Mr. Lenox?" suggested the lily. "Just for one _last_ look?" "Do not ask him," said Claudia, smiling; "he is worn out! We have already extended that look over two long hours. Good-bye, Mr. Lenox; and this time, I think, is really the last." * * * * * BY CONSTANCE F. WOOLSON. HORACE CHASE. 16mo, Cloth, $1 25. JUPITER LIGHTS. 16mo, Cloth, $1 25.

There is a certain bright cheerfulness in Miss Woolson's writing which invests all her characters with lovable qualities.--_Jewish Advocate, N. Y._ Miss Woolson is among our few successful writers of interesting magazine stories, and her skill and power are perceptible in the delineation of her heroines no less than in the suggestive pictures of local life.--_Jewish Messenger, N. Y._ Constance Fenimore Woolson may easily become the novelist laureate.--_Boston Globe._ Miss Woolson has a graceful fancy, a ready wit, a polished style, and conspicuous dramatic power; while her skill in the development of a story is very remarkable.--_London Life._ Miss Woolson never once follows the beaten track of the orthodox novelist, but strikes a new and richly-loaded vein which, so far, is all her own; and thus we feel, on reading one of her works, a fresh sensation, and we put down the book with a sigh to think our pleasant task of reading it is finished. The author's lines must have fallen to her in very pleasant places; or she has, perhaps, within herself the wealth of womanly love and tenderness she pours so freely into all she writes. Such books as hers do much to elevate the moral tone of the day--a quality sadly wanting in novels of the time.--_Whitehall Review, London._ * * * * * PUBLISHED BY HARPER & BROTHERS, NEW YORK. _The above works are for sale by all booksellers, or will be sent by the publishers, postage prepaid, to any part of the United States, Canada, or Mexico, on receipt of the price._ BY CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER THE GOLDEN HOUSE.
