[ocr errors]

Price 2s. 6d., cloth, neat; or, in paper, Is. 6d. **A most enjoyable book. Here are the titles of some of the "Sensation Novels: "SELINA SEDILIA: by Miss M. E. B-dd-n and Mrs. H-n-y W-d. FANTINE: after the French of Victor Hugo. TERENCE DEUVILLE: by Ch-l-s L-v-r. THE DWELLER ON THE THRESHOLD: by Sir Ed-d L-tt-n B-lw-r. THE NINETY-NINE GUARDSMEN by Al-x-a-d-r D-m-s. MR.

By Mr. BENJAMINS (Bret Harte). Price 6d. Curiously Illustrated."

A most mirth-making little volume. Readers of a recent popular novel will enjoy it with considerable relish. It is so droll, so entirely new, that it cannot fail to amuse. 5. Illustrated Edition of THAT HEATHEN CHINEE, and Poems. By BRET HARTE.

With "That Heathen Chinee" set to Music by STEPHEN TUCKER, Author of "Beautiful Isle of the Sea." Cloth, very neat, 3s. 6d.

These are the Illustrations which have so tickled our American cousins. There's a sort of "kick-up-your-heels" delight about them. In a word, they're immense!

6. EAST AND WEST. The New Volume of Verse. By BRET HARTE, Author of "That Heathen Chinee." Cloth, very neat, 2s. 6d. ; or in paper, Is. 6d.

Readers who found pleasure in reading this Author's first books will not be disappointed with this new work.

COMPANION TO BRET HARTE'S "HEATHEN CHINEE."

LITTLE BREECHES, and other Pieces, Descriptive and Pathetic. By Col. JOHN HAY. Cloth, neat, 2s. 6d. ; in paper, Is. 6d. The dramatic fire and vigour of these PIKE COUNTY BALLADS will startle English readers. The last lines of the first ballad are simply terrific,-something entirely different from what any English author would dream of, much less put on paper.
