HENRY HOLT & CO,, NEW YORK. ae MARIAN HARLAND'S “i NEW STORY, “ UDITH: A CHRONICLE OF OLD VIRGINIA, JUST BEGUN IN THE CONTINENT Illustrated Weekly Magazine. MARIAN HARLAND is a genuine Ametican author whom life abroad has only made riper and richer in thought, and more earnest in her devotion to her | native land, whose life she does not re- gard as designed simply to furnish a coun- terfoil to foreign perfectibility. The unlovely sides of the old Southern life have so often been painted, that it is well that a loving hand should trace its bright- er features. In “ Judith” the author describes the land of her birth, and portrays the scenes and society in which her girlhood was passed. " The domestic life of this region is rapidly changing; | and this record of its picturesque phases, from a woman whose faculty for observation and skill in narrative are well known, will possess much interest."—New York Tribune, The story will be illustrated by W.
