Lord Stirling's Son. By A. H. Marshall. (Osgood, Mcllvaine, and

Co.)—This is a clever story of social life,—the story of an honest man who has the misfortune to have a father and a mother who are not honest by any means. There are no particular sen- sations or surprises, but it is well managed and interesting.
