In this book, many phases of life and character are presented with great dramatic force.

woman,

The style of the work is exceedingly animated, and the author's sympathy with Nature, in all her forme of beauty, is every where apparent.

EDITH HALE; a New England Story. In one volume, 12mo. Price $1.25.

This is a novel characterized by its truthfulness of local coloring, both in scenery and in manners. Without espousing any side, unless it be the people's, it has somewhat to do with the pastoral relation, after the manner of" Sunny Side" and "Shady Side." But the plan of the book is new, and the style shows much of the fruits of reading.

MODERN PILGRIMS; showing the Improvements in Travel, and the Newest Methods of reaching the Celestial City. By GEORGE WOOD, author of " Peter Schlemihl in America." In two volumes, 12mo. Price $1.75.

The idea of this work was suggested to the author by the inimitable " Celestial Railroad "of Hawthorne. But in the application of the idea to the religious societies of modern times, the author has followed a path of his own. No description can do the work justice. It is full of trenchant satire upon life, manners, and opinions; and at the same time it has much of pathos, which cannot but awaken sympathy.

It is proper to add, that the author takes the same stand-point with honest John Bunyan.

MARGARET PERCIVAL IN AMERICA. Being a Sequel to "Margaret Percival." By REV E. E. HALE. 12mo., muslin. Price, 75 cents.

"The volume is an interesting one, as unfolding the wide contrast between the religious life of England and the United States. It is written in a style of exquisite beauty, exhibiting on every page the marks of generous feeling and large scholarship. We have read it with great interest, and recognize its truthful portraits of New England life."-Philadelphia C. Chronicle.

NOVELS AND TALES.

"For we speak that we do know, and testify of that we have seen."

Fifty-second thousand. In one volume, 12mo. Price $1.25.

This powerful anti-slavery work has had a very large eircle of admirers. No person can read it without being struck with the wonderful vividness of the author's descriptions of character and manners. The dialogue is spirited, dramatic, and, where negroes are introduced, their dialect is imitated with exquisite fidelity.

CASTE; a Story of Republican Equality. By the author of "Ida May." In one volume, 12mo. Price $1.25.

This is, in the best sense, a Novel, and not merely an Anti-Slavery tract in disguise. The characters and scenes have a vividness which only genius can impart to ideal creations. "Cast: "is not a "sectional" book. Its blows fall as much upon Northern as upon Southern society. And while the vast majority will read the book for the intense interest of the story, it will awaken thinking men to a new phase of the all-absorbing question.

MARTIN MERRIVALE, HIS MARK. BY PAUL CREYTON. With fifteen full-page illustrations, and twenty-two initial letters, from designs by Billings. In one large volume, 12mo. Price $1.50.

"It is a genuine, all-sided, heartsome book, with no sign of consciousness in all its exquisite humor, beanty, and pathos. We have not seen a better delineation of New England rusticity than Paul Creyton's 'Cheesy,' and his Step-mother.""-New-York Courier and Inquirer.

FATHER BRIGHTHOPES; or, an Old Clergyman's Vacation. By PAUL CREYTON. 18mo. Price, muslin, 50 cents; muslin, full gilt, 75 cents.

IRONTHORPE, THE PIONEER PREACHER. BY PAUL CREYTON. 18mo. Price, muslin 50 cents; full gilt, 75 cents.

Few writers have succeeded in interesting so wide a circle of readers as " Paul Creyton." Although his works were designed for mature minds, yet such is the purity and naturalness of his style, that young people, and even children, are delighted with him. Few books published in America have had a greater, or more deserved popularity than the charming series above.

A new work, by Paul Creyton, of great power and originality, is in press.

TALES FOR THE MARINES. BY HARRY GRINGO, (Lieut H. A. Wise, U. S. N.) Author of "Los Gringos," etc. In one volume, 12mo. Price $1.25.

Of this brilliant Nautical Novel, N. P. Will's thus speaks in the Home Journal:

"We deliberately believe that the living writer who can give the most pleasure in the way of fun and novelty, is Harry Gringo. We think him an unworked mine of a new and peculiar intellectual ore.-a keen knowledge of men and things, and subtile powers of analysis underlying all his sparkling effervescence and wonderful sense of the ludicrous. He may have a niche all to himself in the temple of fame."

VASSALL MORTON; a Novel. By FRANCIS PARKMAN, author of "The Conspiracy of Pontiac," etc. In one volume, 12mo. Price $1.25.

This story commences in Boston, and its characters are those of the present day. In the course of the narrative, the action is transferred to Europe: and, in the arrest of the hero, and his subsequent escape from an Austrian dungeon, we have one of the most thrilling scenes in modern fiction.
