MAY 15, 1869.

THERE is a good deal of activity just now in the book-trade in London. Among the most recent publications are the Duke d'Aumale's "Historic Review of the Military Institutions of France;" a Life of Pizarro, by Arthur Helps; a biography of Rossini, by H. Sutherland Edwards; of Napoleon III., by P. J. Hill; of Daniel Defoe, with a variety of newly discovered writings of his; and of Charles Lamb (new edition), by Barry Cornwall, who was Lord Byron's classmate at Harrow School. John Mitchel's "History of Ireland" has been reprinted in Dublin, and the Rev. Mr. Meehan has produced the "Rise and Fall of the Irish Franciscan Monastery." A variety of new novels have lately appeared, by Lady Wood, Mrs. Eiloart, John Pomeroy, Mrs. Linton, Captain Lockhart, and Lady Charles Thynne: indeed, the female novels have outstripped their male rivals in number and productiveness. poetry, the most noticeable volumes are by Lord Kinloch (one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of Scotland), the late Earl of Carlyle, and Edwin Waugh. A new edition of Thomas Davis's "Songs of Ireland" has appeared. The Rev. Alexander Dyce, the latest editor of Shakspeare, has revised Gifford's edition of the poetical and dramatic works of John Ford; and the youngest Hazlitt (grandson of the famous critic and essayist) has edited Robert Herrick's "Poems and Remains." There has also appeared Schiller's "Der Neffe als Onkel," with notes by Charles Dickens. The "Sunday Chaplet," and three other serious works, by the lady who signs A. L. O. E., have also been published.

In

Ar the Dickens' dinner in Liverpool, the guest of the evening was commissioned to propose the health of "the Ladies," a good many of whom, by the way,| partook of the banquet. He said: "Gentlemen-for I address myself solely to you-the nature of the toast I am about to propose cannot, I think, be better or more briefly expressed than in a short quotation from Shakspeare, slightly altered: Scene, a banqueting hall; thunder of admiration! lightning of eyes! Enter Macbeth. 'Who are these so sparkling and so bright in their attire that they look not like inhabitants of earth, and yet are of it?' (Laughter.) Reply? Sir, these are the Lancashire Witches."" (Much laughter.)

Dr. LIVINGSTONE, the African explorer, who was expected in England in February, has not yet appeared. He has been elected Corresponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of France, in the Section of Geography and Navigation.

In these times of cheap books, three guineas and a half (gold) for three volumes of Dyce's Gifford's edition of John Ford's Plays and Poems is rather high. An American reprint, library edition, would not bring more than five dollars.

MR. SAMUEL PHILLIPS DAY, who was in this country as correspondent for the “ Morning Herald" of London, when the war broke out in 1861, has thrown the old-world legend of "Reynard the Fox, the Crafty Courtier, together with the Shifts of his Son Renardine," into words of one syllable for Cassell's Juvenile Library.

Frederick Martin, compiler of a useful and reliable A "HANDBOOK OF CONTEMPORARY BIOGRAPHY," by Work, entitled "The Statesman's Year Book," is announced by Macmillan & Co., London, who will immediately issue Henry Crabb Robinson's "Diary, Reminiscences, and Correspondence," selected and

edited by Dr. Thomas Sadler, with portrait, in three volumes. Fields, Osgood & Co. will publish the latter work at the same time.

TRUBNER & CO., London, have produced an octavo volume, "Travels of Fah-Hean and Sung-Yun, Buddhist Pilgrims from China to India (400 A. D. and 518 A. D.)," translated from the Chinese. It appears that the first of these travels took place in 415 A. D.; the second is the mission of Sung-Yun, who, as well as Fah-Hean, was a Buddhist pilgrim from China to India, to the sacred place where Buddha washed his robe.

MR. THOMAS COBBE, an English barrister, is about issuing the "History of the Norman Kings of England, drawn from a New Collation of the Contemporary Chronicles."

MR. HINCKS, a former prime minister of Canada, and now Governor of British Guiana, has published a large pamphlet in London, entitled "Religious Endowments in Canada, the Clergy Reserves, and the Rectory Questions: a Chapter of Canadian History." It is a concise statement of facts in regard to the religious endowments of Canada. Having lately been created a Knight of the new Colonial Order of St. Michael and St. George (formerly localized in the Ionian Islands), the author is now Sir Francis Hincks. He had previously been a Companion of the Bath, which honor he retains, of

course.

Ar a recent auction in London, an autograph letter of John Dryden realized $150, and one by Daniel Defoe brought $200.

SIR F. A. GORE OUSELEY, a musical baronet, who is Professor of Music in the University of Oxford, has just published "A Treatise on Counterpoint, Canon, and Fugue," based upon that of Cherubini. He is a clergyman.

Or the Duc d'Aumale's work on the Military Institutions of France, a translation, with notes, by Captain Ashe, has appeared in London. The Duc wrote the book, two years ago, in England. In it he holds that liberty doubles the power of military THE last Shakspeare volume, just published in institutions, while it regulates their use.

ADAM AND CHARLES BLACK, now publishers and proprietors of Sir Walter Scott's writings, have 52 British and Irish Guide-Books for 1869, varying in price from one shilling to half-a-guinea. They are indispensable to tourists.

A NEW edition, with addenda, of Captain M. F. Maury's "Physical Geography of the Sea," has just been published by Philips, of Liverpool. The book has become standard authority in England, and showed where the Atlantic Cable should be placed.

with Tables of Descent. Compiled by George Russell French." From this book we find that Mr. George Hart, who in 1864 emigrated to Australia, is the lineal descendant of the sister of the greatest poet who ever lived. He is ninth in descent from William Hart, who in 1599 married Joan Shakspeare, the sister of the poet. The name Shakspeare occurs continually in the family.

"SAINT PAUL's," Mr. Anthony Trollope's magazine, will hereafter be published by Strahan & Co., Ludgate Hill, London, and in the June number will appear the first portion of a new story, "The Three Brothers," by Mrs. Oliphant.

MR. WILLIAM BRADBURY, of the firm of Bradbury & Evans, London, proprietor and publisher of "Punch," has died at the age of seventy.

MR. TRENCH's remarkable work, "Realities of Irish Life," has gone into a third edition in London, with map and thirty illustrations.

PERIODICALS.

National Quarterly Review.

March.

Is the Londou "Athenæum" of May 1st is a review, occupying nearly seven columns, of Victor Hugo's new story, "L'Homme qui Rit." The reviewer criticizes the French edition, and states that this story is only the first part of a new trilogy, and is meant to represent Aristocracy, the future portions to represent Monarchy and Revolution. That MR. HOSACK'S "Mary Queen of Scots and Her is, Aristocracy in England, Monarchy under the Bourbons in France, and Revolution, or Paris in Accusers," announced by Messrs. Blackwood, of 1793, to close the series. Of the plot of "L'Homme Edinburgh, will contain the "Book of Articles" qui Rit," a copious summary is given in the "Athe-produced against her at Westminster, which has It shows how improbable, unnatural, never hitherto been printed. verbose, and unintelligible the story is, and the reviewer states that to render it readable, in English, by decent people, it will be necessary to omit one-eighth of the whole work. Of certain passages, occupying so much space, he says, "All these things cannot be printed in England unless toned down; and if they are so treated, the book will be the translator's, not the author's." Anachronisms are abundant in this story, as well as numerous mistakes in the names of persons and places. Under the date of 1689, the author actually mentions the Atlantic Cable. Finally, the reviewer says, "The book may be called horrible, disgusting, untrue, un-Christian; but there is one thing which its harshest critic will not say, and that is, that it could have been written by any one but Victor Hugo." THE London "Publisher's Circular" (p. 232) speaks of Mr. George Borrow, author of "The Bible in Spain," as "the late Editor of the Quarterly Review.'

"ON THE EDGE OF THE STORM" is the new story "for young ladies," by the author of "Mademoiselle Mori."

It was generally believed, some thirty-two years ago, that three small volumes, by "Quiz," and illustrated by "Phiz," were the joint production of Charles Dickens and H. K. Brown. They were, respectively, sketches of young couples, of young ladies, and of young gentlemen. They were clever, and became popular, being, at any rate, very much in the manner of "Boz." Reproduced in one volame, they are now obtaining a second success in

London.

MISS MARTINEAU's "Biographical Sketches" have already gone into a second edition, with new preface, in London. The extremely neat reprint by Leypoldt & Holt, New York, has had a very considerable sale in this country, and may be classed as a very acceptable library-book.

BOOK NOTICES.

HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY. Early Records of the City and County of Albany and Colony of Rensselaerswyck (1656-1675). Translated from the Original Dutch, with Notes. By Jonathan Pearson, Professor of Natural Philosophy in Union College. pp. vii., 528. Albany: J. Munsell.

Here is another of those valuable, elaborate, and tastefully printed contributions to American Archæology which have issued from the press of Mr. Muusell. It is a translation of all the papers bound in two volumes, labelled Deeds A and B, kept in the office of the clerk of the county of Albany, being the earliest records of the county. The original papers are of an extremely diversified character, including deeds, bonds, contracts, inventories of personal estate, marriage contracts, proposals and sales of excise, indentures of apprenticeship, correspondence with the governor and council, proceedings of Indian councils; in a word, records of all such formal transactions as were usually drawn up by and acknowledged before the chief officer of Fort Orange or the secretary of the village of Beverwyck. These papers are, in fact, the oldest public records extant relating to the city and county of Albany, and have hitherto been sealed books, not having been, until the year 1865, even included in the indexes of the office. To the lawyer, the local historian, the curious in olden customs, and to the descendants from that generation, the information now produced for the first time is especially interesting. The editor has paid critical attention to the interpretation of the proper names, and in supplying the omitted surnames. We can scarcely conceive that any more valuable addition to the authentic local history of Albany County can be made than is contained in the present volume. We ourselves, though not of kin with the Knickerbockers, and not “to the manor born," have turned

over these pages with astonishment at their odd and striking portraiture of primitive times. The volume will doubtless be appreciated, not only by those specially connected with the persons or the locality with which it is connected, but generally by all students of early American history. We understand that only a limited number of copies, not exceeding one hundred and forty, have been printed, so that those who intend to order it must act promptly.

RELIGIOUS.

The Last Passover: an Account of the Closing Incidents in the Life upon Earth of Our Lord Jesus Christ; a Verbal Harmony of the Four Gospel Narratives. Arranged by John R. Whitney. pp. 172. Philadelphia: Claxton, Remsen & Haffelfinger.

In the well-written preface to this neat little volume the author claims that, while his plan is similar to that of several other works, it is radically different in execution, inasmuch as it gives a "connected arrangement of the words," and not simply a narrative of the events, of Gospel history. The care and precision with which the plan is executed are a fitting accompaniment of the fervid piety which seems to have stimulated the undertaking.

Mistress Margery; a Tale of the Lollards. By Emily Sarah Holt, author of "Memoirs of Royal Ladies." pp. xii., 212. Philadelphia: Claxton, Remsen & Haffelfinger.

A story of earnest faith, patient endurance, and martyrdom. It is vividly written, and exhibits considerable knowledge of the manners and customs of the English people towards the close of the fourteenth century. A well-executed wood-cut forms the frontispiece of the volume, which in all respects is excellently manufactured.

LAW.

MAY 15, 1869.

A Treatise on the Law of Watercourses, and an Appendix containing Statutes of Flowing, and Forms of Declarations. By Joseph K. Angell. Sixth

edition, revised, and very much enlarged by the addition of new matter to the text and notes. By J. C. Perkins. pp. xxx., 862. Boston: Little, Brown & Co.

Messrs. Little, Brown & Co. act upon the theory that text-books should be constantly kept brought

The companion pieces in the book will be found to be marked by quite the same degree of merit.

MECHANICAL.

Kemlo's Watch-Repairer's Hand-book. By F. Kemlo; with illustrations. pp. viii., 92. Boston: A. Williams.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Free Masons, What they Are, What they Do,
What they are Aiming at. From the French of
M. Segur. pp. viii., 136. Boston: Patrick

Donahoe.

In this hand-book an endeavor is made to collect such knowledge as every young watch-repairer and in few and clear words, and arranged in a systemevery watch-owner would like to possess, expressed down to date in order thus to exhibit the actual atic manner. We are told by the author that there state of the law. Sometimes objection is made by lawyers to the multiplication of editions of such are eight hundred and forty-five parts in the English lever watch. works, but it is after all cheaper to purchase fresh editions of a few leading text-books than to undertake to procure the numerous volumes of reports from which the new material of the new edition is drawn. The merit of Mr. Angell's treatises has been generally recognized by the legal profession, and the necessity for a new edition of the present one will be readily recognized when we state that it is nearly fifteen years since the preceding edition appeared, and that it has been for several years out of print. The work has been much enlarged, both in text and notes, by Mr. Perkins. He has examined and cited over eight hundred cases, which did not appear in the previous edition, and added nearly a hundred and fifty new sections, besides making many additions to the former ones. The subject of "Surface Water and Drainage" is a new contribution by the editor, and the discussion of Eave's Drip," and much of that part of the work relating to "Subterranean Diversion," of underground streams and

percolations of water, as well as that of implied

easements connected with water, are additions of new matter to the volume. The index appears to be quite copious.

POETRY.

No Sects in Heaven, and Other Poems. By Mrs. E.
H. J. Cleaveland. pp. 95. New York: Clark &
Maynard.

In these few pages the author furnishes a vehement polemic against Freemasonry, his object being to point out what he considers its dangers in a moral and religious view.

The Symbolism of Free Masonry, Illustrating and
Explaining its Science and Philosophy, its Legends,
Myths, and Symbols. By Albert G. Mackey, M. D.
pp. 364.
New York: Clark & Maynard.
Dr. Mackey is the author of several Masonic
works, and is doubtless well qualified to expound
the mysteries of the craft. His work has evidently
been prepared with care, and embodies a good deal
of historical and traditionary lore on the subject.
The Trapper's Guide. By S. Newhouse, and other
Trappers and Sportsmen. Third edition. Edited
by the Oneida Community. pp. 215. New York:
Oakley, Mason & Co.

We have here a manual of instructions for capturing all kinds of fur-bearing animals, and curing their skins; with observations on the fur trade, hints on life in the woods, and narratives of trapping and hunting excursions. The volume is chiefly designed for practical working men, who make or propose to make trapping a means of livelihood, and, as the introduction states, might properly be dedicated to poor men who are looking out for pleasant work and ways of making money, and especially to pioneers of settlement and civili

We are told that the first of these poems, and the one which gives the title to the volume, though written by an American lady, has been circulated to the extent of a hundred thousand copies in England. We are not surprised, for it hits most happily and effectively a popular vein of thought. | zation.
