THE CONTRAST A NOVEL. By EARL MULGRAVE, Author of “MATILDA,” “YES AND NO,” etc. “‘Yes and No’ contained the best _tableaux_ of actual--human--English society in the nineteenth century, of any novel we know of. The same characteristics that distinguished the most agreeable novel are equally remarkable in its successors.”--_Bulwer’s New Monthly Magazine._ “‘Contrast’ cannot fail to prove interesting.”--_Court Journal._ “These volumes possess the rather uncommon merit of a very interesting story. The design is to paint a man whose strong feelings are curbed by an over-fastidiousness--what the French so happily term unhomme difficile.”--_London Literary Gazette._ “Messrs. Carey and Hart have republished, in two neat volumes, Earl Mulgrave’s novel of the ‘Contrast,’ which has been so favourably received in England. It is said to be one of the best novels of the kind, that has issued from the press for years.”--_Philadelphia Inquirer._ “‘Pelham,’ and ‘Yes and No,’ are perhaps the only paintings of the present time which are drawn with the accuracy of knowledge, and the vivacity of talent. Were we to be asked by a foreigner to recommend those novels which, founded on truth, gave the most just delineation of the higher classes in England, it is to the above mentioned works we should refer. _The present volumes, however, are an infinite improvement on their predecessor._”--_London Literary Gazette._ * * * * * In One Volume, 8vo. MEMOIRS OF MARSHAL NEY, COMPILED FROM PAPERS IN THE POSSESSION OF HIS FAMILY. The work has been put together under the direction and management of the Duke of Elchingen, Marshal Ney’s second son, who has affixed his signature to every sheet sent to press. “They may be regarded as the Ney Papers, connected together by an interesting biography; the anecdotes with which they are interspersed have plainly been collected with great pains from all the early friends of that illustrious warrior.”--_Blackwood’s Magazine._ “The memoirs before us are founded upon the papers and documents which he left behind him at his death, consisting of anecdotic and biographical fragments, accounts of his divers missions and campaigns, and the substance of many extraordinary secrets intrusted to him as a general and a statesman. All these materials throw great light upon the history of the French empire, as the details given in the memoirs possess the strongest interest.”--_Pennsylvania Inquirer._ * * * * * In Two Volumes, 12mo. THE BLACK WATCH. BY T. PICKEN. By the Author of the “DOMINIE’S LEGACY.” “One of the most powerful and pathetic fictions which have recently appeared.”--_Times._
