St. Nazarius. By A. C. Farquharson. (Macmillan and Co. 6s.)-

8t. Nazarius is a romance of the German forest, in which imagina- tive flights are rendered in a diction verging a little too much upon the commonplace and conventional. But those who like full delineation of character will find the story of the making of the cousins Humphrey and Mirvan von Oldenburg pleasant and profitable reading.
