"It is a great misfortune that the history of our country that is nearest our own times young men are least acquainted with. It is not written in histories that were read at school, and they are not old enough, as I am old enough, to remember almost every political fact since the great Reform Bill of 1832. I wish young men would read some history of this period. A neighbour and a friend of mine, a most intelligent and accomplished clergyman-Mr. Molesworth-has pub lished a work, being a political history of England from the year 1830 -that is, from the first Reform Bill-until within the last two or three years; a book honestly written, in which facts are plainly, and I believe truly stated, and a work which would give great information to all the young men of the country, if they could be prevailed upon to read it."

"A novel which is both romantic and natural, which has much feeling without any touch of mawkishness, which goes deep into character without any suggestion of painful analysis-this is a rare gem to find amongst the debris of current literature, and this, or nearly this, Mr. Black has given us in the Princess of Thule.'....The bright freshness of the author's descriptions brings his scenes in clear outline and beautiful colour before the reader, and makes him feel that, should his bodily vision ever encounter the landscapes which the author has presented to his mind's eye, he will greet them as old familiar friends."-Saturday Review. "It has, for one thing, the great charm of novelty, for there are few people, if we except, perhaps, yachting men, who know much about the Lewis and the life there. There is a picturesqueness in all that Mr. Black writes; but scarcely even in the Adventures of a Phaeton' are there the freshness and sweetness and perfect sense of natural beauty we find in this last book."-Pall Mall Gazette. "We have sought in vain for some weak point in Mr. Black's wonderful story. We began to suppose that our judgment was blinded by the glamour of the beautiful Princess, or by our love for her, or by the marvellous glow of those northern twilights, every varying effect of which Mr. Black is never tired of describing, nor we of reading. We searched for exaggerations, caricatures, prosiness, repetition, commonplace, English anachronisms, anything to save our judgment from a weak and unconditional surrender to our author, but we searched almost in vain." Spectator. SEVENTH EDITION, crown 8vo. 6s. this day, STRANGE ADVENTURES of a PHAETON. (8vo. Edition, Illustrated by Waller, 10s. 6d.) "Fresh, charming, piquant."-Standard. "A charming book, full of beautiful scenery, and just such a bright and pleasant thread of story as beguiles the reader on."-Blackwood. "The descriptions of the scenery and the little incidents of the journey are gloriously fresh and vivid.”—Guardian, "It is not too much to say that this is one of the sprightliest, most genial, and most wholesome novels we have seen for a long while."-Echo. "The book is a really charming description of a thousand English landscapes, and of the emergencies, and the fun, and the delight of a pic-nic journey through them by a party determined to enjoy themselves."-Times. "One of the prettiest and best told stories which it has been our good fortune to read for a long time. We cannot hope that our notice of it can give anything like an adequate idea of this excellent novel; besides, we wish our readers to enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed it; and to do this they must read it for themselves. ...The interest is well sustained, the humour is delicate and refined, the characters are skilfully developed, the pathos is genuine and restrained."-Pall Mall Gazette. "The readers of Christina North' are not likely to have forgotten that bright, fresh, picturesque story, nor will they be slow to welcome so pleasant a companion to it as now waits for them in the two pleasant volumes before us....It abounds in happy touches of description, of pathos, and of insight into the life and passion of true love, and is therefore sure to attract a goodly circle of young readers, whose appetite still endures for pure, healthy fiction."-Standard. "We have here a novel which is like a lovely little cabinet picture, full of minute touches of detail, full of beautiful thoughts and picturesque writing; one which carries with it a pleasant dreamy enjoyment, such as is engendered by the sound of bees humming, and all the other agreeable associations of a warm summer's day."

By GUSTAVE MASSON, AssistantMaster and Librarian, Harrow School. Square, half bound, 6s. [This day. This volume, though cast in the same form as other dictionaries, has several distinctive features which increase its value for the student. In the French-English part, etymologies, founded on the researches of Messrs. Littré, Schéler, and Brachet, are given. The list of diverging derivations, at the end of the volume, will be very useful to those who are interested in tracing the various developments of original Latin words. But that which makes it almost indispensable to students of the political and literary history of France, is to be found at the beginning of the work, where M. Masson has drawn up clear and complete tables of historical events, viewed in connexion with the developments of literature and language, between the death of Charlemagne, 814 A.D., and that of Louis Philippe, 1850. These tables are illustrated by remarks on the various social moods, of which the works produced were the expression. Appended also is a list of the principal Chronicles and Memoirs on the History of France which have appeared up to the present time; the French Republican Calendar, compared with the Gregorian; and a Chronological list of the principal French Newspapers published during the Revolution and the First Empire. We feel sure that all who study this work will allow that the author has signally overcome the lexicographer's natural tendency to dryness. As a dictionary it is unusually copious, and as a book remarkably handy. THIRD AND CHEAPER EDITION, SOMEWHAT ABRIDGED. JOHN COLERIDGE PATTESON'S LIFE. BY CHARLOTTE M.

"Such a life, with its grand lessons of unselfishness, is a blessing and an honour to the age in which it is lived: the biography cannot be studied without pleasure and profit; and, indeed, we should think little of the man who did not rise from the study of it better and wiser.

By GUISEPPE MARIA CAMPA- 'My Life, and what I Learnt in It,' is likely at this time to prove of special interest. The author, Signor G. M. Campanella, passed his novitiate in a monastery in the South of Italy. Thence he was called to Rome as Cantatore Cappelano Pontefico. He soon, however, laid himself open to suspicion on account of his known Liberal views, which were not to be tolerated at the Papal Court. He was banished from the Eternal City, and recommended to return to his Neapolitan convent. A brief time of hope was then dawning for Italy, to be overclouded, however, by disappointment. It was the year of revolutions, 1848; the Italian people rose in arms to drive out the foreigner that had so long held the northern part of the peninsula in thrall. Α Neapolitan battalion of volunteers was raised, and Signor Campanella accompanied these troops to Venice in the capacity of chaplain. Here he became acquainted with the well known General Pepe and the patriot Daniele Manin. The author relates his singular monastic experiences, tells of the Sistine Chapel choir, and ends with a personal narrative of the exciting scenes witnessed during the liberation of Italy. The book, for all these reasons, promises to be of unusual interest."-Court Journal. THE NEW AND POPULAR NOVELS, AT EVERY LIBRARY. those in SORROW.

LITERATURE The Life of Napoleon the Third. Derived from State Records, from Unpublished Family Correspondence, and from Personal Testimony. By Blanchard Jerrold. With Family Portraits in the possession of the Imperial Family, and Fac-similes of Letters of Napoleon the First, Napoleon the Third, Queen Hortense, &c. 4 vols. Vol. I. (Longmans & Co.) IT has probably not passed without observation that after the poisoning of Benedict the Eleventh, in 1304, the French party carried the election of Bernard de Got (Clement the Fifth), and that a Napoleon (Cardinal Napoleon Orsini) was the chief of that successful party. At the same time the anti-French party in Italy was strongest in Florence; and at the ahead of that party was the noble but decayed family of the "Buonaparte." The family JD the shared in the subsequent persecution, and went into exile. The two names, Napoleon and the not yet Frenchified "Buonaparte," met in one person between four and five centuries later, at the modest table of a humble but respectable lawyer, Carlo Buonaparte, whose ancestors in Corsica had borne the prefix "Messer" to their name, whereby was inof F dicated that they were of, at least, gentle birth. Of the son who was the survivor of the three sons of the unhappy marriage of Louis Bonaparte and Hortense de Beauharnais, Mr. Jerrold has undertaken to tell the history; and in this volume he gives us the first of four octavos, which will ultimately run to someallowances must be made for him on the score thing like a couple of thousand pages. Great of difficulties. An Imperial historian, who appears to write, if not to Imperial order, at least under a certain restraint, must go to his task as much fettered as a court-painter who is commanded to depict some great courtincident, and who is generally driven half mad, before his work is half finished, by silly suggestions, which are meant to be orders, and by following which he would mar his reputation. At the table of that lawyer, in Ajaccio, five boys and three girls, the survivors of thirteen children, sat with their parents, who furnished them with frugal fare, and speculated on their future condition. Of the boys, one became an Emperor; three, Kings; one was satisfied with the title of Prince; and the destinies of the girls were equally brilliant. The mother, moreover, of this family, lived to see the splendour and to survive the wreck of her children's fortunes. Whose without error; they who loved her best were constrained to admit her follies; to bow their heads when it was asserted that she wronged her husband." After Hortense had altogether abandoned the ex-King Louis, the latter obtained, by force of law, the guardianship of the "Louis, the future Emperor, elder of his sons. was," says Mr. Jerrold, "from his birth to his manhood his mother's child." An anonymous French writer, whose biographical sketch of the husband of Hortense is now under our eye, writes :-"Il épousa Hortense . . . . et en eut plusieurs enfans dont le public malin lui contesta quelquefois la paternité.” nature was inherited by Louis Napoleon it would not be easy to say. He never was known to make any allusion to the husband of Hortense, but he spoke frequently and affectionately of his mother. Louis Napoleon, though "born in the purple," according to Mr. Jerrold, had not imbibed imperial qualities in his childhood. In a little autobiography of himself, he states that to an invitation of the Empress Josephine to ask for anything he liked best, he "requested to be allowed to go and walk in the gutters with the little streetboys!" He and his brother were rather roughly handled by the great Emperor. When they went to breakfast with him, "he came up to us, took us by the head between his hands, and in this way stood us upon the table!" Their governess was more careful of Louis, for, one cold day, as he was about to water some flowers, the lady, in order to prevent him from being chilled, filled the watering-pot with warm water! This is almost all of interest which Mr. Jerrold has to tell us of the childhood of Louis Napoleon. We may, perhaps, except the copy of an infantile letter to Hortense, which Mr. Jerrold gives in types, and also a lithographed fac-simile, and of which important document the following is a transcript :-" Petite Maman,-Oui-oui a fait pouf dans le dada. Oui-oui n'a pas bobo-il aime maman beaucoup à cœur. OUI-OUI." The above is among the unpublished family correspondence. Accordingly, at starting, Mr. Jerrold does not go easily in harness. He makes various slips. He talks of "the private home of Napoleon and Josephine and their children," of which children we have never heard before, and are not likely to hear again, as in the next page we are told that " Napoleon was childless." Madame Campan is in one and the same page with and without the "de." Sometimes the writer is "I," at other times he is "We." Louis Bonaparte, we are told, was early "with Napoleon to learn war at the cannon's mouth, and SO he learned it thoroughly. He was a stout, brave, unambitious soldier." A few pages, later, however, we find that King Louis " was never a man of war," and so on. When Mr. Jerrold comes to the marriage of Hortense (who, under the Republic, had been apprenticed to her mother's dress-maker) with Louis, he is as much troubled as the reader by opposing statements about the feelings of the one for the other, and about the gay and clever Hortense's love affairs generally. The two were married in January, 1802, when "the purple was glowing on the horizon." In October of the same year, their first, shortlived son, Napoleon, was born. In 1805, a second son, Louis, was born in the Rue Cérutti, Paris. In the following year, the father was raised to the dignity of King of Holland, which he endured rather than enjoyed for four years. In 1808, the brilliant Queen Hortense had left the tranquil King. Mr. Jerrold says: "In addition to political differences, there were conjugal jealousies on differences, there were conjugal jealousies on both sides." He had previously stated that the Queen had reproached her husband for his indifference to women; but now, in 1808, “in all this trouble, and with both the Emperor and Empress far away from Paris, Queen Hortense gave birth to a son, the future Napoleon the Third, in the night of April 20, 1808, at her hotel in the Rue Cérutti, now the hotel of MM. Rothschild, in the Rue Lafitte." "I should have preferred a daughter," was the Queen's comment after giving birth to a son. "I desire," wrote the Emperor, "that this prince shall be called Charles Napoleon." He was accordingly called Charles Louis Napoleon, and will be best known to the end of time, in England, at least, as the "Louis Napoleon " who was so familiar to us all. Mr. Jerrold calls this being "born in the purple." The youngest but one of those five boys, Louis Bonaparte, was born at Ajaccio in 1778. Above all the rest, he preserved the simple tastes which were cultivated in the paternal home. The Abbé Nasica has told us that Carlo and Lætizia Buonaparte brought up their children simply, after the fashion of their country, and with a primitive strictness. It It was almost as if you were living in a convent. Prayers, sleep, study, refreshment, pleasure, promenade everything went by rule and measure. The greatest harmony, a tender and sincere affection, prevailed among all the members of the family. It was in those days a pattern to the town, as it afterwards became its ornament and boast. The influences of such a healthy course of life occasionally moved lazy Joseph, imperious Napoleon, and, still more, the literary Lucien, who became the first patron of Béranger; but the brother who most willingly yielded himself to those wholesome influences, and who was the opposite in everything of the youngest brother, Jerome, was Louis. During the brief years of his royalty in Holland, his wife, Queen Hortense, "always," so Mr. Jerrold says, charged him with a dislike of women"; but his excuse was that they, according to him, loved show. "Elles cherchent l'éclat," he would say, "et le bonheur n'en a point." Into the scandalous stories of the time we will not enter. Mr. Jerrold, who is gallantly disposed to be the champion of Queen Hortense, is forced to say "She was not After the child had had a brief enjoyment of being in, or under the shadow of, the purple, the Imperial balloon burst, and great was the collapse thereof. collapse thereof. Hortense and her son, after various incidents, found themselves in safety at Constance. Mr. Jerrold avails himself of this opportunity to indulge in a gushing expression of sentiment-his custom whenever the chance is before him. "Queen Victoria," he says, "in her "Tour in the Highlands,' relates how delighted she was when her husband said to her that people live their own lives over again in those of their children. Prince Eugène possibly made remarks akin to this when he strove to re-animate his sister's heart." Possibly he did, but it was very little to the purpose, and this dragging in of the English Queen and Prince Albert and the Highlands is only a specimen of the way in which Mr. Jerrold lengthens out his story. The sentimental fever was very violent among the members of the Imperial family, and Mr. Jerrold has caught it with aggravated symptoms. When Louis Napoleon showed to a lady at Arenenberg the wedding-rings of Josephine and the Emperor, the Prince sillily remarked, "They are the standards of the whole Bonaparte family, which we shall always carry before us in the battle of life."
