Such a work, interesting and important at' any time, is doubly welcome at the present hour; when nothing can bemore desirable than a clear and emphatic exposition of the character of the Gentleman, as an-incarnation of the justice, love, and honor, upon which rest the hopes and welfare of the nation. In this volume the. author givesa. full, forcible, frank, and fervent discussion of the Gentleman as he ggures in histoiy, in society, in do mestic life, and in literature; and the whole treatise, while made genially attractive by playfulness and anec dote,is pervaded by an earnestness born ot strong con viction and deep sympathies.
