Part 7
"The publication of this novel was commenced in the _International Magazine_, and the portion which there appeared was so much admired by readers, that there was a general expression of regret that it had not been completed before the _International_ was discontinued. It has been reprinted from the _Dublin University Magazine_, edited by CHARLES LEVER; and although the author's name is not mentioned, we judge from its powerful delineation of human character and passions, that it has not been attributed erroneously to a popular writer. There have been few works of fiction published of late years that can be deemed superior.--_Commercial Advertiser._
"In skilfulness of plot, vividness of portraiture, and expressiveness of style, it has not been exceeded by any novel of the season."--_Courier & Enquirer._
"It is the ablest and most poweful fiction of the day."--_Daily Times._
"This work has created a profound sensation, and would seem to mark the commencement of a new and brilliant career in the world of romantic fiction equal to that of SCOTT himself. We have never read a more vivid or powerful work in this school of writing."--_Morn. Star._
"We have seldom read a work of fiction more thrillingly wrought out than this. It is a tale which excites, by its fearful incidents, and enchains by its continuous and sustained power; while the vivid portraitures of individual character are worthy of DICKENS or BULWER."--_Home Journal._
