4. NATHALIE. By JULIA KAVANAGH.
“‘Nathalie’ is Miss Kavanagh’s best imaginative effort. Its manner is
gracious and attractive. Its matter is good.”--_Athenæum._
5. A WOMAN’S THOUGHTS ABOUT WOMEN.
BY THE AUTHOR OF “JOHN HALIFAX, GENTLEMAN.”
“A book of sound counsel. It is one of the most sensible works of its
kind, well-written, true-hearted, and altogether practical. Whoever
wishes to give advice to a young lady may thank the author for means of
doing so.”--_Examiner._
6. ADAM GRAEME. By MRS. OLIPHANT.
“A story awakening genuine emotions of interest and delight by its
admirable pictures of Scottish life and scenery. The author sets before
us the essential attributes of Christian virtue, with a delicacy,
power, and truth which can hardly be surpassed.”--_Post._
7. SAM SLICK’S WISE SAWS & MODERN INSTANCES.
“The reputation of this book will stand as long as that of
Scott’s or Bulwer’s Novels. Its remarkable originality and happy
descriptions of American life still continue the subject of universal
admiration.”--_Messenger._
8. CARDINAL WISEMAN’S RECOLLECTIONS OF THE LAST FOUR POPES.
“A picturesque book on Rome and its ecclesiastical sovereigns,
by an eloquent Roman Catholic. Cardinal Wiseman has treated a
special subject with so much geniality, that his recollections
will excite no ill-feeling in those who are most conscientiously
opposed to every idea of human infallibility represented in Papal
domination.”--_Athenæum._
9. A LIFE FOR A LIFE.
BY THE AUTHOR OF “JOHN HALIFAX, GENTLEMAN.”
“In ‘A Life for a Life’ the author is fortunate in a good subject, and
has produced a work of strong effect.”--_Athenæum._
10. THE OLD COURT SUBURB. By LEIGH HUNT.
“A delightful book, that will be welcome to all readers, and
most welcome to those who have a love for the best kinds of
reading.”--_Examiner._
11. MARGARET AND HER BRIDESMAIDS.
“We recommend all who are in search of a fascinating novel to
read this work for themselves. They will find it well worth their
while. There are a freshness and originality about it quite
charming.”--_Athenæum._
12. THE OLD JUDGE. By SAM SLICK.
“The publications included in this Library have all been of good
quality; many give information while they entertain, and of that
class the book before us is a specimen. The manner in which the Cheap
Editions forming the series is produced, deserves especial mention. The
paper and print are unexceptionable; there is a steel engraving in each
volume, and the outsides of them will satisfy the purchaser who likes
to see books in handsome uniform.”--_Examiner._
13. DARIEN. By ELIOT WARBURTON.
“This last production of the author of ‘The Crescent and the Cross’
has the same elements of a very wide popularity. It will please its
thousands.”--_Globe._
