Did Hawthorne Write It? Did Gunter Write It? Did Winter ? WHO WROTE “NAPOLEON SMITH ?” WHAT THE PRESS HAS TO SAY-WARM AND VERY GENERAL Com- MENDATION, “ Napoleon Smith," a novel by a well-known New Vorker, whose style resembles that of Wm. Winter, the dramatic critic, isa book of considerably more than ordinary interest. The principal character of the story isa sergeant in the American army who subsequently did service in France during the Ger- man war,and who claimed to have knowledge, through a rela- tive, of where the first Napoleon buried a large amount of treasure during his reign as emperor. His service in the army and efforts to obtain the hidden treasure are told ina graphic manner.—Lowell Mail. In working out this unique and stunning theme our well- known and yet unknown author gives us a sketch of the daz- zling Yankee, Smith, who claims to be the great Napoleon's grandson, tells of his’ meteoric appearances in and near Paris, Goring the Franco-Prussian war; offers glimpses of the Amer. ican legation life in Washburne's time, and supplies enough Tove and. passion to please the most’ sentimental reader, Chicago Inter-Ocean. There are some remarkably strong and vivid scenes duri the siege of Paris, and the portrait of the petite French gir who was a charge upon Minister Washburne’s chief assistant for atime, and who afterwards married a prominent officer of the American secret service, who was doing detective work in the guise of a Yankee soap pedler for the American minister in Pari is faithfully done. “The novel is weakened by lugging in the Haggardism of tracing a line from Napoleon to Napeleon Smith, and leading the latter to find under the floor of a ball of the Tuileries millions in gold, which he brought to America and made possible thereby the resumption of specie payment in 1876.—Nechester Morning Herald. To our thinking, it requires but little acuteness to detect in this original plot and dramatic development, the hand of Julian Hawthorne. "It is just the sort of speculation in which Mr. Hawthorne delights to indulge. ‘The story is intense, fascinat- ing, well-informed, brilliant, and holds the reader from first to last. It professes fo explain how it came about that the United States resumed specie payment with such ease in 1876, when, s0 far as known, there was no great store of gold in the country: While this ts the mainspring of the romance, its author follows the fortunes of an American soldier thr \co-German war, plunges him in love with a prett Tees to protect in case her father falls, and shows a remark- abic“eftect of trepanning in a. certain case where the subject recovers his health but loses all memory of his former life. In support of his thcory of the lapse of memory, the author quotes ‘several historic cases, and among others that of“ my friend S— of Utiea, NV." He went to New York city to transact business. He disappeared. The police traced his history while in New Vork. He had left his business entirely arranged at the bank. His name appeared on a hotel register. His name was also on the register of an ocean steamer company, The police of Liverpool were cabled. No such person was on such a Steamer. The steamer stopped at the Bermudas. No such person by name st there. ‘A person answering the de- scription, but of another name, had st there, Was en- tirely sane. Had walked and ridden over the istands. Had sailed for New York. When he returned to Utica no one could make him believe he had been on an ocean voyage, of had ever been out of sight of land. He was a Christian gentleman and did not drink. For a time his memory was gone, and while in that condition a new memory and reason controlled the new life.” Two other cases, one that of a New York clergyman, the other that of the elder Delmonico, are cited. On this foundation the author builds a curious theory and story, which is well worth the reading. He will no doubt receive many letters asking if Napoleon Smith was a true character, and if he did in reality put the United States in possession’ of five hundred millions of gold.—Utica Morning Herald.
