An Unsatisfactory Lover. By Mrs. Hungerford. (F. V. White and

Co.)—Miss " Terry " O'More is a "wild Irish girl" ; Mr. Trefusis is a calm Englishman, whom Miss Terry consents to marry, because it would be a good thing for her brothers. He is terribly silent and self-restrained; it seems as if everything would -end in trouble; but he subdues a very bad-tempered horse in a way that no Irish girl could resist, and all is happiness. There is more in Mrs. Hungerford's book than this. Still, it is a little thin, and the motive is one which we have seen in different -shapes, not once or twice only, before.
