however there is very little to which we would object, but we would rather recommend it as displaying in a just and true light the determined apathy, and the coldhearted selfishness, generated by the flutter, the dissipation, and the eternal round of amusements in fashionable life. This is well drawn in the volumes before us, and cannot be read without effect. The most original portion however of the work is the description of Highland manners at the conclusion. These are faithfully pourtrayed and cannot fail to interest both the Scotch and the English reader.
