Zenobia, Queen of Palmyra. By the Rev. W. Ware. (Warne.)—This
is an old friend, well known and well loved in our youth, when it bore the name, which was, we believe, its original name, and which we cannot see any reason for changing, of "Letters from Palmyra." We have looked through the book again, and are happy to believe that our old liking was justified, not only by the interest of the story and by the picturesqueness of the writing, which are undeniable, but by its general fidelity to historical truth. It is a capital romance, and we should be sorry to think so ill of the rising generation as not to believe that it will please them.
