Modest yet Amusing - Curious yet Chaste.

JUST ISSUED!

One of the most piquant and unique volumes, upon a peculiar, singular, and universally interesting subject that has ever found its way into print. A wrork at once MODEST AND AMUSING, CURIOUS, YET CHASTE, on that world-wide and thrilling topic - LOVE - being, as it were, the history, philosophy, character, and peculiarities of the passion as illustrated by the

AMATORY ANNALS OF ALL NATIONS.

This novel production is entitled

ANECDOTES OF LOVE,

And is from the pen of that celebrated Lady,

Madame LOLA MONTEZ, Countess of Landsfeldt,

And embraces about a THOUSAND SPRIGHTLY CHAPTERS, in which the "tender passion" is treated under as many different phases. Each chapter is a STORY OF LOVE in itself, and includes:

Alexander and Thais, The Loves of Colatine Camilla, Curious Story of Love, Humorous Sequel to Love, Archbishop Untitled by Love, Popes Created and Destroyed by Love, The Charming Yota, The Gentle Agnes, Loves of a Great General, Countess of Chateaubriant, Love between Armies, Duke de Longueville, Loves of Mahomet, First Love of Queen Elizabeth, Aspasia and Perides, The Fate of Fausta, Love and Vengeance, Loves of Caligula, Eleanor of Castile, Love in a Dungeon, A baillard and Heloisa,

The Love of Achomath, Love a Great Teacher, Van Anna of Caumont, The Virtuous Chiomare, Countess of Salisbury, Death of the Innocent, Madame de Maintenon, Love in Babylon, Love and Surgery, The Amorous League, Loves of Caesar, Loves of a Pope, Kingdom Lost by Love, Strange Story of Abassa, The Love of Agamemnon, Alegre the Marquis, Story of Busas, Love of a Poet, Oliver le Daine, Story of Lucretia, Mary, Queen of Scotland, etc, etc, etc, etc.

The subject of Love is one of those which has deeply interested mankind in all ages. History overflows, therefore, with the romance and reality of Love, which only needs a judicious pen to place them modestly before the mind, to arrest the general attention and admiration. That accomplished lady, Madame Lola Montez, with the tact which belongs peculiarly to the feminine nature, especially when imbued with the necessary information and resources, has seized upon this circumstance with the happiest effect in the volume before us. Her acute perception of the proprieties of language is here as wonderfully exhibited as her delicate taste in selecting those features in the sensation side of love life, which most deserve the immortalization of literary embalment.

These romantic and surpassing anecdotes really contain all of the most tragic and comic events connected with the history of the tender passion among all nations and in all ages of the world. It is precisely the kind of book which a man will find it impossible to relinquish until he has read it through from the first to the last chapter. Read the volume and judge for yourself.

The work is charmingly bound in cloth, price One Dollar, and sent to any address, free of postage. Send cash orders to
