In the New York Ledger of Febru ary 17th, the Washington's Birthday number, will be commenced this great novel, Mr. Hall Caine's masterpiece, entitled "The Manxman." The in habitants of the Isle of Man, a little island off the coast of Scotland, devot ed to fishing and agriculture, are known as Manxmen, a sturdy race, full of na tive pride, traditional, prejudice, sin cere, humane and of genuine manli ness. This has always been a favorite field of the author. His great novel, "The Deemster," portrays these peo ple. Hall Caine's deep feeling finds an appropriate outlet in these strong, heaity, incorruptible characters, their lives full ct peril and suffering and labo-. Mr. Caine has always delighted in romantic adventure ; his characters are always alive and at work, doing something. His jnilosophy of novel writ'ng is contained in some words lately addressed by him to an Ameri can friend: "Let American authors give us that simple humanity, and it will be quite gross enough and quite palpable enough to our assurance of reality. Let them tell us of the men who make the romance of American life, and we shall not complain that ...,- t,. .U.I ' Wt,-.i asked in what way the future of Amer ican literature and drama will ie, he answered : "In the way of all English literature, all English science, all Eng Ush art, all English thought, a,l Eng lish life the toay 0 romance. No fable was ever so romantic as the his tory of America.". This is the temp er of Mr. Hall fame, and such is the author of our new Ledger story, "The Manxman." No reader of novels can afford to miss it. It is the greatest story of our day. It seizes hold of the heart with a grip that is not relaxed until the whole great tragedy is worked out and the fate of the men and wom en written down. In reading this story the great lesson is constantly impressed upon the mind that circumstances are quite as powerful in life as character, and that opportunity missed is equiva lent to no opportunity offered. Such a great novel, so full of deep lessons of life, will create a wide interest in the Ledger among all intelligent read ers, during the coming year.
