BY THE HON. C. STUART SAVILE.
3 volumes.
THE PETREL.
A TALE OF THE SEA.
By a Naval Officer. 3 vols.
"The best nautical novel which has appeared for a long time. It cannot fail to remind the reader of the best tales of Captain Marryat."
--Britannia.
"This story possesses an attraction which is all engrossing. Admiral Fisher has proved by this tale that he can use his pen with no contemptible skill."--Dispatch.
ERNEST VANE.
BY ALEX. BAILLIE COCHRANE, M.P.
2 volumes.
""Ernest Vane" is of high merit as a production of genius. The work is in parts, surpa.s.sing beautiful. It is rich in imagery, almost exhaustless in observation. It deals with pa.s.sion in its intensity, and not unseldom penetrates the darkest recesses of the human heart. Its pages abound with brilliancy of thought and depth of feeling."--Morning Post.
SIN AND SORROW.
A TALE.
2 vols. (just ready.)
Pa.s.sAGES IN THE LIFE OF Mrs. MARGARET MAITLAND, OF SUNNYSIDE.
Written by herself. 3 vols.
"The most gratifying work of its cla.s.s since the great delineator of Scottish manners ceased to exist."--Tait"s Magazine.
"This work has given us much pleasure. Mrs. Maitland might claim cousinship with the Rev. Micah Balwhidder."--Athenaeum.
"Our readers will enjoy this work--its genuine nationality of tone and sentiment, its refined and poetic homeliness, and its strokes of quiet humour. The author may be described as a refined or feminine Galt. In the pathetic element we are not unfrequently reminded of Wilson"s "Lights and Shadows.""--Scotsman.
THE MAID OF ORLEANS.
By the Author of "Whitefriars," "Owen Tudor," &c. 3 vols.
"An excellent novel. The character of the "Maid of Orleans" is drawn with a glow and fervour, a mixture of elevation and simplicity, which are alike powerful and attractive."--Athenaeum.
"A romance of surpa.s.sing interest, rarely equalled for vigour, brilliancy, pathos, and dignity of style."--Weekly Chronicle.
The OLD WORLD and the NEW.
BY MRS. TROLLOPE. 3 vols.
"In all respects one of the very cleverest and interesting novels of the day."--Herald.
"A very clever novel, presenting in marked contrast the "Old World and the New" during the eventful epoch out of which we are emerging."--Post.
ROCKINGHAM; OR, THE YOUNGER BROTHER.
Second Edition. 3 vols.
"We beg to call our readers" attention to "Rockingham; or, the Younger Brother," a book which, from internal evidence, must have been written by a person constantly mingling in the highest English society. The work abounds in interest, and, indeed, we should be at a loss to name another recent novel that shows anything like the same power of painting strong pa.s.sion."--Quarterly Review.

BY FREDRIKA BREMER.
Translated by Mary Howitt. 1 vol. 10s. 6d.
THE HALL & THE HAMLET.
