By G. MOORE, M.D. 12mo, Muslin. 50 cents. Dr. Moore is one of the very best writers of the day.

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.

By A. BELL.

12mo, Muslin, 75 cents; Paper, 50 cents. It is by all odds the best temperance story we ever read. It is difficult not to believe in the reality of the scene. You can not doubt that it is an actual copy of life. You forget you are reading a romance, and put just as much trust in the narration as if it were told of your next door neighbors. To produce this effect completely is, we take it, the highest success of a novelist.-Mirror.
