The scene of Miss McKeever’s new story is laid principally in New England. The hero, a Scotch boy, taken from the humbler walks of life, is a type of that struggling class that thrive best in our country. By his moral and intellectual worth, sustained by an unfaltering trust in God, he rises step by step, triumphing over every difficulty, until he attains a commanding position among his fellow men. The power of personal influence is illustrated by the acts of his daily life, moulding a peculiarly untutored child of noble impulses, and guiding her aspirations after the good and true. Roland Bruce and Madeline, or Madcap Hamilton, as she is sometimes familiarly called, the hero and heroine of the story, give a freshness and vigor to it, which, with the high moral inculcated, commend it to the favorable attention of all classes of readers.
