    hands who desire to read an interesting book.—­Odd Fellow,

There is a fascination about these sketches which so powerfully interests the reader, that few who commence one of them will part with it till it is concluded; and they will bear reading repeatedly.—­Norfolk and Portsmouth Herald.

THE WAY TO PROSPER, AND OTHER TALES,

12mo, over 200 pages, with six illustrations.

NOTICES OF THE PRESS.

This is one of Mr. Arthur’s best books.  His object, and he always has in view a noble one, is to recommend family union, a firm adherence to the law which requires us to respect the holy tie of family union, which requires brother to assist brother, and sister, sister.  By means of a lively and pleasing narrative, he shows that this principle is not only right, but politic, and that the law of family unions is really the true way to prosper.  We commend the volume to our readers as one of the best and most profitable of the many useful works which have been produced by the same accomplished writer.—­Godey’s Lady’s Book.

This is the title of a small volume published by Mr. J.W.  Bradley, of this city.
