Marcus Stratford's Charge. By Evelyn Everett-Green. (Religious Tract Society.)—The story

has a certain interest, though perhaps it is made a little too long, and the characters are somewhat wanting in colour. But Mrs. Everett-Green's purpose is excellent. She writes always earnestly, and sometimes with force. A reader cannot but get some good from Marcus Stratford's Charge.
