, 1 R _ ~ — ~ ' to are be illeg coerced itimate by , unscru and permit pulous themselves fathers . But therefore it must
be admitted that out of this somewhat singular material Miss Smith has woven a highly wrought and very exciting romance . She has scarcely
made so much of her situations as she might have done—notably , in the instance where Robinson , the — — ¦— organist — — f—j — - , discloses who in reality f / he is ; but
her book , taken all' round , is a well-written piece of work , and should enthrall many readers . From Mr . T . Fisher Unwin . —In ' The Making
of the Irish Nation , and the First Fruits of Federation / Mr . J . A .. Partridge has expressed his views with clearness , force , and , so far
as we can see , tolerable accuracy . Sometimes we may disagree with him in the deductions he has drawn , but all must admit the industry
and intelligence that he bas brought to bear upon the subject . It would be easy , of eourse , to find passages that seem exaggerated , and in
other respects the author would appear not altogether to be unbiassed in his judgment ; but a thoug —^ 2 htful — — perusal oft the work discloses much
interesting matter ^ and able reasoning . It is a book that all who are interested in the Irish question should certainly read .
From Messrs . Vizetelly & Co . —In their sixpenny series of humorous and entertaining books these publishers have now issued * The Detective ' s Eye '
, by F . Du Boisgobey , and * Young Widows / by E . 0 . Grenville Murray . Though widely dissimilar — in treatment , each of these volumes pos j-
sesses characteristics which should certainly command a wide circle of readers . From Messrs . Marcus Ward & Co . This firm
has brought out in a very artistic style a booklet of Gleanings from Beaconsfield , ' compiled by St . John Raikes . The gleanings are characteristic
and good , and the garb in which they are offered to the public is decidedly appropriate with its
embellishment of pretty primroses .
