“We know not when we have read a tale so entirely to our mind as this.  It makes us wish we could have our young days over again; for sure we are that with such a monitor as ‘Emilie,’ we should have been saved from many bitter after feelings of regret.  The lesson conveyed in the tale is one of heavenly wisdom, inculcating ‘peace upon earth, and good-will towards men,’ and the heart of every reader must be improved by it.”
