    ears open . No one will deny him the credit of possessing a special talent in the power of absorbing facts and describing them effectively . - To

    remark that the book is readable would be commonplace praise ; it is valuable , and its value is heightened by the easy anecdotal style of the

    truth narrative , mod as eration well , and as b justice y the general which appear evidences in its of . As the author ' s object in going to America

    was pages to buy an estate and settle on it with his two sons , it will be easily comprehended that the character of his experiences was rather varied and

    sometimes not altogether happy * Thus he trenchantly exposes the pitiless impostures of land agents , putting forth once more the" oft-repeated warning

    respecting too tempting advertisements . Considerations of space preclude us " from quoting the book , but \ J ^ fro b ^ k m K ^ b *^ P what W W ^^ - ~ - * ^ ^ W we V V have V * V v ^ --W said W-W -W ^ P ^» ^ it » W will V W ^» ^ - * W be W * -T ^ tkW understood ^ P ^ V ^ mW -W ^^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^^^ ^*^ ^*^^ *** * ^^ ^^ ^*^

    Australia . There is a breezy briskness about Mr . Henty * s narrative which carries the reader in cheerful humour from the beginning to the

    end . It was in 1829 that the author ' s father and two uncles sailed from England for Australia on board the barque Carolinewhich had been

    char-, tered by their father Thomas Henty , part proprietor of Henty ' s Bank at Worthing , Sussex . The freight of the vessel consisted of farm

    implements , draught and pure horses , pure merino sheep , pure cattle , a plentiful supply of stores and seeds of all kinds . Many farm labourers

    also went out with the ship . We regret that we cannot repeat some of the early experiences of the pioneers . Nothing could be" more

    entertaining or more instructive than the unvarnished narrative of the hardy efforts which , within the memory offering of a man hom , e have to thousands founded a of great our dominion surplus ,
