The Innocents Abroad, By Mark Twnin,;(8. C. Clemens, American Publishing Co.,* Hartford, Conn. The bright and gunny character of Mark' Twain's humor and his freedom from the trickery of bad spelling have made everything he writes pleasantly attractive- The present volume professes to be an account of the excursion of the steamer Quaker City to Europe and the Holy Land. While it outlines the main incidents of travel,the greatest charm of the book is in its digressions, the episodes and the by-play of the narrative.— The descriptive passages are vivid, but the happiest pages nro-thoso which sketch the fellow passengers of the author,the stfangc people, customs, and the habits of life he observes abroad Of the new class of American humorists, Twain is undoubtedly the best.
