BY THE SAME AUTHOR,

GRANTLEY MANOR;

A TALE.

One volume 12mo., paper cover 50 cents, cloth 75 cents.

Lady Georgiana Fullerton's first appearance as a novelist rendered her famous at Ellen Middleton, her first production, was a powerfully constructed story, manifesting great ability in the author, which Grantley Manor fully confirms. We commend the book most cordially."--Evening Mirror.

"The book is an excellent one, and the Lady Georgiana's style is admirable. It is clear, concise, glowing, and lady-like. Her dialogue and narrative likewise show great skill in perception and arrangement."-Boston Atlas.

"Grantley Manor is the title of an exceedingly interesting volume, which we have read with more than ordinary pleasure. The style is elegant, the story, which involves a succession of mysteries and cross purposes, is well developed, and the scene and character painting is full of spirit and truth. The authoress is certainly a woman of genius, which she has used to excellent purpose."--Southern Literary Messenger.

GRACE LESLIE;

A

TALE.

From the last London Edition.

One volume 12m., cloth 75 cents.

Simplicity is the charm of this story. It can scarcely be said to have a plot. The tale embraces the history of a month in the life of a young girl suddenly thrown into society, and for young people it was originally written. It has been generally popular, however, for every thing in it is natural. There is neither sameness nor tameness in the narrative; the characters are numerous, and each is kept distinct. Moreover, the moral of the story is unexceptionable."--Com. Adv.
