s of many sides of life--some grave, some gay,
some cheering and some sad, pervaded by a genial spirit and developing
good morals.

Either of the fifteen sketches will amply repay the purchaser of the
volume, and unless our judgment is false, _after a careful reading_,
"Ups and Downs" will make an impression beyond "the pleasant effect to
while away a few unoccupied moments." The Publishers have given Cousin
Cicely's gems a setting worthy of their brilliancy. The ten
illustrations are capital in design and execution, and it strikes us as
remarkable how such a volume can be profitably got up at the price for
which it is sold. The secret must lie in large circulation--which "Ups
and Downs" is certain to secure.--N.Y. _Evening Mirror_.

_Who is Cousin Cicely_?--We begin to think Cousin Cicely is _somebody_,
and feel disposed to ask, who is she? We several months ago noticed her
"Lewie" in this journal. It is a story with a fine moral, beautiful and
touching in its development. It has already quietly made its way to a
circulation of _twelve thousand_, "without beating a drum or crying
oysters." Pretty good evidence that there is something in it. Our
readers have already had a taste of "_Ups and Downs_," for we find among
its contents a story entitled "_Miss Todd, M.D., or a Disease of the
Heart_," which was published in this journal a few months ago We venture
to say that _no one_ who read has forgotten it, and those who remember
it will be glad to know where they can find plenty more of the "same
sort."--_U.S. Journal_.

* * * Sketches of life as it is, and of some things as they should be;
all drawn with a light pencil, and abounding with touches of real
genius, Cousin Cicely has improved her former good reputation in our
opinion, by this effort.--_The Wesleyan_.
