It was an unselfish life, whose tenderness and beauty shone through all vicissitudes, and brightened every dark hour.

My heart is very tired,—my strength is low,— My hands are full of blossoms plucked before, Held dead within them till myself shall die. Elizabeth Barret Many motives drew Margaret to her native land: heart-weariness at the reaction in Europe; desire of publishing to best advantage the book whereby she hoped at once to do justice to great principles and brave men, and to earn bread for her dear ones and herself; and, above all, yearning to be again among her family and earliest associates. I go back, she writes, prepared for difficulties; but it will be a consolation to be with my mother, brothers, sister, and old friends, and I

Whittier's Snow-Bound is not more complete in its kind. From the Christian Register. It consists of twenty short, sensible, witty, and vigorous essays, directed chiefly against the follies of the sex.From the Boston Globe. She writes so keenly at times as to suggest comparison with the author of the Saturday Review papers on woman; with this marked difference, that, while the criticisms — of the latter are bitter and unsparing, those of Mrs. Woolson, however sincere, evince always the generous purpose which underlies them, and show the author's appreciation of woman's real worth and the opportunities within her reach.From the Boston Journal.

Celeste too was in an agony of terror, till Ossoli, with soothing words and a long and fervent prayer, restored her to self-contlives of the crew, or to throw away his own; finally, that he would himself take Angelo, and that sailors should go with Celeste, Ossoli, and herself. But, as before, Margaret decisively declared that she would not be parted from her husband or her broken down by hardships and sickness, was going home to die. These men were once again persuading Margaret, Ossoli and Celeste to try the planks, which they held ready in the lee of the ship, and the steward, by whom Nino was so much beloved, had some twenty minutes after. The cook and carpenter were thrown far upon the foremast, and saved themselves by swimming. Celeste and Ossoli caught for a moment by the rigging, but the next wave swallowed them up.

She was a woman of uncommon intellect, and of wide reading; and every thing she read was brought to the standard of a judgment remarkably clear and penetrative; indeed, her conversion to the Roman Catholic faith seems to have been mostly a matter of the head,—a choice between the Greek and the Roman ecelesiasticism. Long before her decision was made, her life shows her to have been a humble and earnest Christian; and, as such, as one whose sympathies took wing higher and wider than the opinions in which she had caged herself, her history has a rare value. One wonders at the amount of good accomplished by her, always a weak invalid. In order to understand how she lived, and what she did, the book must be read through; but some extracts might give a hint of it:— She rarely gave what is called advice,—an absolute solution of a given problem: her humility made her shrink from direct responsi<
