“We recommend all who are in search of a fascinating story to read this work for themselves. They will find it well worth their while. There are a freshness and originality about it quite charming, and there is a certain nobleness in the treatment both of sentiment and incident which is not often found.”—Athenæum.
VOL. XII—THE OLD JUDGE. BY SAM SLICK.
“This work is redolent of the hearty fun and strong masculine sense of our old friend ‘Sam Slick.’ Every page is alive with rapid, fresh sketches of character, droll, quaint, racy sayings, good-humoured practical jokes, and capitally-told anecdotes”—Chronicle.
VOL. XIII.—DARIEN. BY ELIOT WARBURTON.
“This last production, from the pen of the author of ‘The Crescent and the Cross,’ has the same elements of a very wide popularity. It will please its thousands.”—Globe.

“It were impossible to praise too highly as a work of amusement this most interesting book, whether we should have regard to its excellent plan or its not less excellent execution. It ought to be found on every drawing-room table.”—Standard.
