    From the same . — ' Springhaven : a Tale of the Great War / by Richard Doddridge Blackmore .

    In this enchanting novel Mr Blackmoro has again given us one of those penetrating and powerful studies of life which we have been

    led from the excellence of his previous works to expect from his pen . One little imperfection , however , we may point out . The

    character of Caryl Came , the villain , upon whose actions the chief burden of the plot rests , is somewhat unintelligibleand it seems hard to

    , understand how bright Dolly Darling—charming and lovable for all her faults—should have succumbed to his influence , to say nothing of his

    power over Dan Tugweli . Caryl Came is supposed to be a soft-spoken , plausible villain , but surel — — y such — - ¦ p - lausibility - — — — — — _» as he — — is possessed r" — _____ — of _ -. and

    as depicted in the book woald have taken nobody in . Moreover , the motive for his treacherous conduct is not very plainand such as is given

    does not seem very adequate & , . When we turn C ? to is other at portions once riveted of the , and book we , however have nothing , our attenti but the on

    warmest of praise . Many of the characters are in Mr .
