( 5 . ) A gorgeous phantasmagoria in the scenes which it presents ; and in character and incident , full of power . Victor Hugo is as graphic and versatile as Walter Scott ; more disposed occasionally to ' o ' erstep the modesty of nature ; ' less hasty and slovenly ( to judge by the present work ) in the filling
up of his narrative ; and far more imbued with the spirit of the age , and awake to the atrocious as well as the poetical character of the old feudal times . He is the first writer of romance of which France can boast , and Notre Dame is his acknowledged chef-d ' oeuvre . It is spiritedly rendered by the translator of Sarran ' a ' La Fayette , Louis Philippe , and the Revolution of 1830 /
( 6 . ) This work deserves a medical and philosophical analysis of its contents , which is more than at present we are enabled to offer to our readers . In default of a professional and comprehensive view of the . subject , we can only say that the book is interesting in the perusal , wise and beneficent in its aim , and abundant in juat observations , ingenious suggestions , and curious facts .
( 7 . ) Mr . Piper has produced a volume of sermons which are neither contro \ ersy , cant , nor common-place . They are well adapted , according to their design , for * Sunday evenings , ' and not less adapted for week-day mornings . A glance at them , before going to business , might send , a man into the world with a better spirit than the world will breathe into him . We are particularly pleased with the discourse entitled * Times improve as they advance .
