An Ocean Outlaw. By Hugh St. Leger. (Blackio and Son.)—

Mr. Hugh St. Leger is a writer who evidently is quite at home on the roaring wave. We have storms and mutinies, and the unfail- ing attraction of treasure trove, and everything ordered at last by strict poetical justice. The tale cannot fail to charm boy- readers, but will hardly make them very keen about going to sea.
