"Of the living female authors of England, there is no one more widely or more favorably known in this country than Mrs. Ellis. Her works are always characterized by a depth of feeling, an earnestness of spirit, a zeal for the right, a truth, freshness, and vivacity, that render them not only interesting but instructive. Her stories contain, as the very end and essence of their being, a high and lofty sentiment of morality, equal to Maria Edgeworth or Hannah More. We cannot but trust they will ever enjoy their present popularity. The present publication combines all the graces and felicities of her previous writings, with added interest and value."

The

Simplicity is the charm of this story. It can scarcely be said to have a plo. tale embraces the history of a month in the life of a young girl suddenly thrown into so ciety, and for young people it was originally written. It has been generally popular, however, for every thing in it is natural. There is neither sameness nor tameness in the narrative; the characters are numerous and each is kept distinct. Moreover, the moral of the story is unexceptionable."-Com. .idv.
