"No kind of literature is so generally attractive as Fiction. Picturesof life and manners, and Stories of adventure, are more eagerly receivedby the many than graver productions, however important these latter maybe. APULEIUS is better remembered by his fable of Cupid and Psyche thanby his abstruser Platonic writings; and the Decameron of BOCCACCIO hasoutlived the Latin Treatises, and other learned works of that author."
THE VICAR OF WREXHILL.
COMPLETE IN ONE VOLUME.
BY FRANCES TROLLOPE
AUTHOR OF "JONATHAN JEFFERSON WHITLAW," "DOMESTIC MANNERS OF THEAMERICANS," "ONE FAULT," ETC.
Les bons et vrais dévots qu'on doit suivre à la trace
Ne sont pas ceux aussí qui font taut de grimace.
Hé, quoi!... vous ne ferez nulle distinction
Entre l'hypocrisie et la dévotion?
Vous les voulez traiter d'un semblable langage,
Et rendre même honneur au masque qu'au visage?
Molière.

"A sort of frozen blandishment smoothed the proud face ofthe Vicar as he stood with his lady beside him, to receive thesycophants."
