CARWELL;
By Mrs. Sheridan, Author of "Aims and Ends."
"A story which for minute fidelity to truth, for high tragic conception, both of plot and character, has few equals in modern fiction."
"But everywhere you see that rarest of all literary beauties, a beautiful mind—an intimate persuasion of the fine and great truths of the human heart—a delicate and quick perception of the lovely and the honest—an intellect that profits by experience, and a disposition which that experience cannot corrupt."—The Author of Pelham.

THE GENTLEMAN IN BLACK.
"It is very clever and very entertaining—replete with pleasantry and humour: quite as imaginative as any German diablerie, and far more amusing than most productions of its class. It is a very whimsical and well devised jeu d'esprit."—Literary Gazette.
