"This is a most stirring and pathetic story, ill.u.s.trating the terrible power of human depravity on the one hand, and the importance of using the most efficient means to counteract it on the other. The author a.s.sures us that his statements are throughout nothing but sober verity; and that many of the persons whose character and experience are here described are still living in various parts of the United States. If this be really so (and we have no right to dispute the author's word), we can only say that they form the most remarkable group of personages which have ever come within our knowledge. It is a most intensely exciting book; but we do not perceive any thing that indicates ill-nature."--_Boston Puritan Recorder._
"The tale is one of modern times and events; the characters and personages alluded to are those who have lived in the present century, here and elsewhere, and the story is a most exciting one, well and powerfully written."--_Boston Transcript._
"The most original in its conception, the widest in its scope, the most interesting in its narrative, and the best in its execution. The characters are drawn from nature; we need no preface to tell us that, for they speak, think, and act to the life * * * The ups and downs of honest old Davy, the hero of the book, the true-hearted Rag-Picker, read us a homily on the fickleness of fortune, and furnish an example which the proudest aristocrat might do well to follow. We lay aside the volume with a sigh that there is no more of it."--_N. Y. Sat.u.r.day Evening Courier._

"A well-planned and highly interesting story."--_Fred. Dougla.s.s's Paper._
