=St. John's Eve, and Other Stories.= By NIKOLA V. GOGOL. 12mo. $1.25.

In these tales of Gogol, the marvellous abounds. His field of observation is the village. His heroes are unimportant people, with superst.i.tious imaginations,--very simple souls, whose artless pa.s.sions are shown without any veil, but whose very ingenuousness is a deliciously restful contrast to our romantic or theatrical characters, so insipid and perfunctory in the refinements of their conventionality.

This volume is the second of a series of Gogol's Works which we have in preparation, and will be followed by "Dead Souls," now in press.
