ivilized world on the evils of slavery, presenting these so vividly and powerfully that the heart and conscience of mankind were thenceforth enlisted against them. But, aside from its graphic portrayal of slavery, Uncle Tom's Cabin is a story of thrilling power, and abounds in humorous delineations of negro and Yankee character. Its extraordinary annual sale of thousands of copies, and its translation into numerous foreign languages, attest its universal and permanent interest. Dred (Nina Gordon). A Story of Slavery. New Edition from new plates. 12mo, $1.50. This volume was originally published under the title Dred. It has a close connection with Uncle Tom's Cabin, the object of both being to picture life at the South as it was under the regime of slavery. Uncle Tom and Dred will assure Mrs. Stowe a place in that high rank of novelists who can give us a national life in all its phases, popular and aristocratic, humorous and tragic, political and religious.--Westminster Re

se fate it is impossible to fetch a tear, -hardly a sigh, and that of relief. The fact that in a recent edition of this story the title is changed from Dred to Nina Gordon, is suggestive. But there are unsurpassable passages and characters in Dred. Tiff, Aunt Milly, Nina Gordon, Jekyl, and Aunt Nesbit are personages that demonstNina Gordon, Jekyl, and Aunt Nesbit are personages that demonstrate Mrs. Stowe's matchless power in delineating and differentiating individual characters. Uncle Tij, so perfectly devoted to dese y'er chil'en, so noble and simple of heart, and yet so irresistibly droll in his manners; who wants to be ordered round 'fore folks, to maintain the family dignity; who, when his fire goes out immedias and humor is made manifest in the happiest possible manner. And what more powerful chapter has Mrs. Stowe ever written than that in which Aunt Milly tells to Nina Gordon the tragic, the terrible story of her life? Not long after the publication of Dred, Mrs. Stowe began to write another story, which was published as a serial

e it tolerated slavery without the excuse either of habit or of interest. Bitterly attacked by Southerners of all sorts, however, she defended herself with A key to Uncle Tom's cabin; presenting the original facts and documents upon which the story is founded (1853), and then, after a triumphant visit to Europe and a removal to Andover, essayed another novel to illustrate the evil effects of slavery especially upon the whites. Dred; a tale of the great dismal Swamp (1856） Also known as Nina Gordon from the English title. has had its critical partisans, but posterity has not sustained them. Grave faults of construction, slight knowledge of the scene (North Carolina), a less simple and compact story than in Uncle Tom's cabin, and a larger share of disquisition,—these weigh the book down, and most readers carry away only fragmentary memories, of Dred's thunderous eloquence, of Tom Gordon's shameless abuse of his power as master, and of Old Tiff's grotesque and beautiful fidelity.
