WE have much pleasure m anuounciug that we will shortly commence the publication of Beutha M. Clay's new Novel, entitled HIS ONE MISTAKE. It is, to say the leust, an extraordinary Story, by au American lady, and dealing throughout with what Ls supposed to be one of the most exclusive aristocratic circles of Great Britain. It is a good story, well and forcibly told. The heroine is a sweet and brave woman. We never came across a more beautiful character, and Lady Ethel is little behind her. It is altogether an excellent talc, free trorn sensation, full of pathos, which never degenerates into bathos or .sickly sentimentality. Eminently a ladies' book, yet fnll of interest to any man who cuu appreciate fine analyses of human nature. NOTICE. TO OUR ASHURST SUBfcCRIBEKS. OUR Collector will visit Ashurst on WEDNESDAY, tie 22nd insr., when a tlc-me.it of all acvouuts due is respectfully requested.
