TIMES.--'The book is, as it were, a reliquary, containing Mrs. Sartoris's qualities; and Mrs. Ritchie has woven a delicate lace covering for it in a pattern of wreathed memories, blossoming, branching, intertwining--and in the midst of them a whole nosegay of impressions which still keep their fragrance.'
