"A very clever and attractive novel."-Athenæum.
"A very entertaining novel. The plot is worked up with great ingenuity,
and the denouement so skilfully concealed, that the reader cannot even
guess at it until he has read through this well written work."-Sunday
Times.
"The new novel, 'The Squire,' by the popular author of The Mer-
chant's Daughter,' &c. has been pronounced to be the best work of fiction
which has appeared for some time. Fresh pictures of the country, and of
country life of dinners at the manor-house-of the flirtations in assembly-
rooms of rustic beauties and young squires, combined with a story of im-
penetrable mystery, and an exquisite delineation of female sweetness in the
person of Mabel Conyers, the heroine, constitute the attractions of this
book, which cannot fail to become popular with both sexes. We purposely
abstain from giving an abstract of the story, lest we dull the edge of curiosity
as to the gradual developement of one of the most ingeniously constructed
plots in modern fiction."-Bentley's Miscellany

"A very able book; and at the same time that it is highly entertaining,
bears throughout evidences of deep research. The narrative of the glorious
career of Queen Elizabeth, now, when the whole nation hails with loud
acclaim the accession of Queen Victoria, will be read with deep interest."-
Morning Post.
