A STORY OF THE LAST CENTURY.

FROM THE ESCRITOIRE OF THE LATE SAMUEL SCOBEL, CLERK.

"This is a story written in a course of old-fashioned letters, in which the style of the period is extremely well imitated; the contemporary events are touched on just as they would naturally be in the course of a real correspondence. The story is interesting; and there is a tone of good feeling and gentle piety which has a charm that grows on the reader as he proceeds."--_Athenaeum_.
