Howitt (A. M.) An Art-Student in Munich. By ANNA MARY HOWITT. 2 vols. post 8vo. price 14s.

"Since Bubbles from the Brunnens of Nassau we have had no local handbook so airy and buoyant, so effervescent and diaphanous, as this young lady's Munich experiences. No vulgar German vind, made up of questionable ingredients, is here; but a rol au vent of choice and del cate materials. Wonder, delight, girlish enthusiasm, deep and varied emot on, sudden transitions from the picturesque and pathetic to the playful and familiar, scenes of artistic blended with those of domestic Bavarian life, keep the reader in a perpetual participation of the fair student's own genuine enjoyments " GLOBE.
