An extraordinary but !.trathful picture .of the entire social system of the Sontl4 - describing the domestic life of the rich planters,"the small planters, and the "white trash," and depicting actual scenes ou the large and small plantations. AMONG THE PINES. The success of this admirable work has been of the most extraordinary character. Edition after edition has been exhausted, until over 30,000 copies have been sold, and the Thirty-fifth Thousand already printed. Every one is reading and praising it. AMONG THE The New York Trilneve calls it " a volatile of Alit into• rest, not only as an illustration of Southern society but as a graphic, animated, and often thrilling story,' AI ONG THE PINES, The Providence Journal says "It is one of the most readable books oil Southern life we have ever seen. The Pictures which the author gives of the workings of the peculiar institution are not surpassed by the most tragic scenes so vividly portrayed by Mrs. Stowe." AMONG . TIM -PINES. TheicetrYork Christian Inquirer says "it is one of the most .graphic ever been written of the South and Southern society, *. * * ' Among the Pines' Is a good manual on the war, ami on the cause of the war." AMONG THE PINES. Thor. Y. Examiner remarks that "No more interest ing or suggestive volume has ever been published about the South and its peculiar institutions. * * This fascinating volume needs no other commendation than the fact that its salc, within a tow weeks, has reached Nineteen Thousand copies." , . AMONG THE PINES., The Boston Romer of Light says "Among the Pines is certainly a most remarkable book ;.the writer of it is a real hero, without ever appearing to be aware of it. He sketches and•oolbrs with the firm and rapid hand of an artist, and * throws together incidents, and develops scenes that.stit tlie•blood in every vein in the body." AMONG THE PINEg. The Pittsburg Glizette says: "No work on Southern social life since 'Uncle Tom:_ has been given to the world which can at all be compared to Mr. Kirke's 'Among the Pines.' It is one of The books of the SVOOn which is sure to be universally, read; and which will live when much cotemporary writing will be forgotten." AMI®NG T.ll E PINES. The Salem Observer says: "The best critics have pro nounced this book the most vivid and life-like repre sentation of the peculiar phase of Southern life and character which it describes that has ever been written, Indeed, so truthful do its descriptions seem, that it has been matter ohlispate with not a few whether they are Sotion or fact." AMONG , THE PINES. The Boston .Recarder says " it is a book which will be read. with deep interest at the present time. The style is ciyid,. and the pictures sketched we suppose to he. true," AMONG THE PINES.. • The liew York Independent calls it" a booltef.striking. and truthful portraiture of slave society; it powerful age) even painful story, and worth reading f.u.ntere.for.in struction than for pleasure.
