Autobiographical Memoirs of Miss Macau ley . Nos . I and 2 . It is difficult to judge of a work from so brief a specimen as this ; but from tl > e indications it affords , and from what is generally known of the author ' s history , we may anticipate that it will combine two kinds of interest which are not often united ; the amusement , so generally relished , of theatrical anecdote and adventure , and- the interest of tracing the exertions , conflicts , and privations of benevolent enthusiasm .

It is brought out by Power ; and the cover boars the appropriate device of a harp , with the motto , ' the power of melody . * Tue publisher will of course be called before the House of Lord * , lor the colour of the cover is green , and the harp is not surmoaBted by a crown *
