BLACK SPIRITS AND WHITE.
By Frances Eleanor Trollope, author of “a Charming Fellow,” etc. 1 vol., 8vo. Illustrated. Paper covers. Price, 75 cents.
“It has all the rapid movement of a play, and is at the same time full of piquant character-study. The personages of the story have life and thorough individuality—there is not a puppet among them. It has been said of one of them—the American ‘medium’—that he is simply a caricature; but those who have seen a certain erratic countryman of ours will recognize many of his curious traits.”—N. Y. Tribune.
GARTH.
A Novel. By Julian Hawthorne, author of “Bressant,” “Saxon Studies,” etc. 1 vol., 8vo. Paper covers, $1.00; cloth, $1.50.
“‘Garth,’ is Mr. Julian Hawthorne’s most elaborate and pretentious book. It is on many accounts also his best book, though it contains nothing so good as the character of the hero in ‘Bressant.’ At least his genius is unmistakable. And we are disposed to venture the suggestion that, if ‘Garth’ had not been a serial, it would have been more compact and closely written, and so its situations more effective, its characters better sustained.”—New York World.
