Mrs. Fenwick is engaged upon a complete Course of Letters, supposed to be addressed from a mother to her daughters at boarding-school, of the ages of twelve and sixteen, on manners, conduct in life, and the leading objects of taste, science, and literature. In their comprehensiveness and matter they are intended to apply to the same points as Lord Chesterfields Letters to his Son, inculcating, however, a due severity of morals and respect for revealed religion. The book will be printed in the manner of a school-book, closely, and in one thick volume. (162)
