Allingham. —LAURENCE BLOOMFIELD IN IRELAND; or, the New Landlord. By William Allingham. New and Cheaper Issue, with a Preface. Fcap. 8vo. cloth. 4 s. 6 d.
It is vital with the national character.... It has something of Pope's point and Goldsmith's simplicity, touched to a more modern issue. —Athenæum.
An Ancient City, and other Poems. —By A Native of Surrey. Extra fcap. 8vo. 6 s.
Archer. —CHRISTINA NORTH. By E. M. Archer. Two vols. Crown 8vo. 21 s.
The work of a clever, cultivated person, wielding a practised pen. The characters are drawn with force and precision, the dialogue is easy: the whole book displays powers of pathos and humour, and a shrewd knowledge of men and things. —Spectator.
Arnold. —THE COMPLETE POETICAL WORKS. Vol. I. Narrative and Elegiac Poems. Vol. II. Dramatic and Lyric Poems. By Matthew Arnold. Extra fcap. 8vo. Price 6 s. each.
The two volumes comprehend the First and Second Series of the Poems, and the New Poems. Thyrsis is a poem of perfect delight, exquisite in grave tenderness of reminiscence, rich in breadth of western light, breathing full the spirit of gray and ancient Oxford. —Saturday Review.
Atkinson. —AN ART TOUR TO THE NORTHERN CAPITALS OF EUROPE. By J. Beavington Atkinson. 8vo. 12 s.
We can highly recommend it; not only for the valuable information it gives on the special subjects to which it is dedicated, but also for the interesting episodes of travel which are interwoven with, and lighten, the weightier matters of judicious and varied criticism on art and artists in northern capitals. —Art Journal.
