      NEW NOVEL . AGNES VALMAR . 3 vols . post 8 vo . OFINIOirS OF THE PRESS . " It h » S the one great merit of a novel—that it maintains the reader ' s curiosity , in-terests and amuses him . The reader Wp . oe not likelj to lay down the vork till lie has finished it . and he will ftnd it tedious nowhere ....... wit lias undeniab le freshness of feeling ^ occasional elaiuence , and some passages with a tou . ohing truth in them . " —Examiner . . . " The hook is written iii a pleasant and agreeable style ; the dialogues are easy and -well put together ; and th « descrit » - tionS of feeling are of themselves sufficient to excite an interest that will cause the story to be extensively read . ' — Observer . "The doctrine ivhich this charmingly- written novel is intended to inculcate is , tbafc where hearts . are made for each other , it Jta _ vain tojittompt . to pait them . In illustration of this truth—if such it be—the author has composed a most powerful tale . As a sample o » f unselfish low , she ( the heroine ) stands unrivalled in fiction . " —John Bull . " It embodies a , atrange develbtSemeiit Of the tender passion , wrought out by some stirring situations and much passionate dialogue , both giving ; deended evidences of power . "—Sunday Times . " -This is a good novel : natural and consisteat in its delineation of character , skilful in the construction and developemelkt ) of the plot , graphic in description , and sparkling ever and anon with animated , narrative and lively dialogue Displaying , as it does , some points of originality , with considerable dramatic power , it is no wonder that the reader finds his attention agreeably enchained from the beginning to the end of the romantic but not extravagant history . " —Morning JPosi . . <• • - ¦ ¦ ~ - , . - The novel before us is precisely one of those which we think is eminently successful in the regions of sentiment The incidents and situations of the tale are very well managed ; the dialogue is well sustained ana lively , and the pathos of some of the scenes , especially towards the end of the tale , is extremely fine . "We venture to assert that 'Agnes V&lmar' will be a favourite . ~ Weare sure it deserves to bef so . — Dublin livening Mail . "There is an ardour and characteristic intensity about its style , of which great use might be made which , reminds ua of the excited tone ( A composition of Wllkie Collins's BasiL "—The Press .

      Just published , 2 vols ., post 8 vo , 18 s ., T HE LIFE of JEROME CAHDAN , of MILAN . PHYSICIAN . By HENHY MORLEY , Author of " Palisay the Potter , ' &o . "' Every page carries its evidence of a laborious and honest study of the ma . n , of a real knowledge of hia writings , of a thorough perception of his character in its most startling inconsistencies . The curtain rises on those distracted and tuTbulent Italian cities of three hundred years ago , and there passes onco more before the scene Ihe vioious and exiravagant studout , the laborious writer of books , the po > pular practising physician , fclto astrologer , the mathematician , the gambler of dissolute habits , tne > philosopher of untiring study , the man at whose feet the princes of the oaibh seemed to 1 )« pouring out thoir treasures , yet the man soon after , both poor and old , lying on a desolate death-bod — -who were all comprised in tko person of Jerome Cardan . . . . . Nothing can exceed the pathetic , because the simple and . quite unaffected , manner fa which these incidents are related by Mr . Morloy . There are few things in romance more vivid or sustained than their interest , so perfectly natural , so strikingly dramatic" —Examiner . London : Chapman and IIali ,, 19 . % Piccadilly .
