'Alinda: The Child of Mystery'

By the author of 'Ora and Juliet', 'Castle of Tariffa' - An ordinary novel, full of improbable incidents and romantic sentiments, yet containing a tolerable representation of a poor Irish domestic, which character is now much in vogue with the novel writer, perhaps from ample materials for its delination which have been furnished by Miss Edgeworth.
