    Kaufman of Bays water , 'by Mrs . Mark Herbert . The characters in this entertaining novel are chiefly womenwhose weaknesses and foibles

    the authoress , skilfully depicts . Mrs . Herbert is justly severe on the heartless , self-seeking , strong t _ j -minded woman 1 who is no match — fur — —

    the woman of keen sensibility and tender conscience but little mental stamina . This contrast of character is portrayed effectively in

    the doings of Joan Kaufman and Ethel Bright . the Joan novel ' s scapegrace . After forming brother a is bi the gamous evil genius marriage of

    with Ethel he is convicted Cj and imprisoned for O forgery otf to Australia . On regaining by his his famil freedom y . In he the is shi mean pped

    by Mary Boyle . Drollery and common sense , are cleverly blended in this highly entertaining volume . Although Jfisop may not be outdone

    on the score of wisdom , he has certainly a rival here in the faculty of humour . These fables , numbering upwards of fifty , are illustrated by

    old woodcuts , or new ones in imitation of the old , many of which are exceedingly comic . From ' The Field' Office . —The * Fox-Terrier /

    by Rawdon Lee . The volume before us is the second edition of a work which has proved , judging by the early demand for another issue

    of no small interest to sportsman and admirers , of dogs . Besides being considerably extended by several interesting additions , two of the

    larger engravings , representing typical varieties of terriers , have been replaced by others , which are certainly excellent portraits of the dog in

    question , as also are the majority of the other illustrations . With regard to the text we must remark that , whatever doubts the author

    entertained , as he apparently did by the observation made in his preface to the first edition , on the reader what he finding had to any say novelty in a pleasan therein t chatty , he has manner said ,
