    Shadow of a Life , ' by J . Lawrence Hornibrdok . This is a story of villains and villainous deeds . Mr . Hornibrook ' s style is melodramaticaireKof ten

    lives in a chateau of the good old-fashioned sort , prolific of sliding panels and secret pas-: sagesand he has his nephew immured within

    , a damp dark vault . However , fortunately for the cause of justice , the Count is not left unopposed in his wicked machinations , and mainly ,

    through the action of an irresistible detective his true character is brought , to light . The story will doubtless be read with interest by lovers

    of sensational improbability . From the same . — « Alma : or , the Story of a Little

    Music Mistress , ' by Emma Marshall . In a brightly sympathetic manner , that is bound to enlist sympathy , the author here relates Ihe

    troubles and trials of a brave , unselfish girl , who was the sole support of her mother and three young brothers . The lot may not be

    entirely original , nor remarkabl p e for any newness of treatment ; but Mrs . Marshall , by her pure womanly style and absence of anything like

    affectation , has rendered the » arration remarkably interesting . Few readers who take up * Alma' but will bo charmed by the fresh lovable

    heroine , and will follow her fortunes with unwearying attention to the close . In some

    respects the story is highly pathetic ; and it is

    pleasant to think , after reading it , that the pathos has been produced by none but the most

    legitimate means . Art trickery is happily absent from Mr 3 . Marshall's fiction . * "
