RELIGIOUS.

very favorably. The repulsiveness and tediousness
of the pure Ollendorf system are completely broken
down; the various lessons, as they progress, assume
a wider range, and should, as we suppose, really
become interesting to the student.
Elements of Latin Grammar for Schools. By Albert The Forty Hours. pp. 96.
Harkness, Ph. D. pp. xii., 156.

Short and Familiar Answers to the Most Common Ob-
jections Urged Against Religion. From the French

Mantilla's Reciprocal Method for Learning Spanish or English. By Louis Felipe Mantilla. pp. vii.,

248.

Each of these is from D. Appleton & Co., New York. The manual of Prof. Harkness is on the same plan as his larger work, which has rapidly reached an extended sale, but is intended for more elementary instruction. The Spanish method of Prof. Mantilla seems to have been prepared judiciously and carefully. He aims at a pure and idiomatic use of the language rather than a merely

literal one.

A Summary of English and French History for the
Use of Schools. New York and Chicago: A. S.
Barnes & Co.

To those who know rightly how to use them, small compends, such as these, are extremely valuable. The summary of English History occupies 18 pages; that of French, 12 pages; and to these is added a summary of American History, coming down to the close of 1868, in 46 pages.

Payot's French Series.

Henry Payot & Co., San Francisco, are issuing an elementary French series, of which two numbers are before us, one being a pronouncing primer, and

the other a first reader.

Each of these is from Patrick Donahoe, Boston. The first of them is said to have passed through twenty-seven editions in France in about four years, above one hundred thousand copies having

been sold.

Why Men do not Believe; or the Principal Causes of
Infidelity. By N. J. Laforet, Rector of the Catho-
lic University of Louvain. pp. xiv., 251. New
York: The Catholic Publication Society.

The author appears not only familiar with church history and patristic literature, as might indeed be those particulars in recent literature, especially expected from his position, but also conversant with French, in which there is a real or apparent antagonism between science and faith. We suppose he may properly be regarded as one of the most vigorous of recent Catholic apologists. His work is well worthy the attention of thoughtful men. The Society has issued it in an excellent style of manufacture.

History and Repository of Pulpit Eloquence (Deceased
Divines), containing the Masterpieces of Bossuet,
Bourdaloue, Massillon, etc. By Henry C. Fisk,
D. D. pp. xiii., 613; vi., 616. New York: M.
W. Dodd.

This work appeared originally in 1856 in two
volumes, both of which are now bound together in
one.
The latter work is not,trative of the Greek and Latin, the English, the
It contains a large number of sermons illus-

however, supplied with a lexicon.

The First Six Books of Virgil's Æneid. With Explanatory Notes, a Lexicon, and a Map, together with an Appendix containing Dr. S. H. Taylor's Questions on Virgil and Metrical Index. By Edward Seering, A. M., Professor of Latin in Milton College, Wisconsin. pp. xxii., 421. New York and Chicago: A. S. Barnes & Co.

The principal characteristic of this edition of Virgil is the fact that it is supplied with an appropriate Lexicon, and certainly this is an important feature in its favor. The notes are brief, but to the point, the numerous pictorial illustrations add interest to the text, and, taken altogether, it is in many respects a very useful edition.

The First Six Books of Homer's Iliad. With Explanatory Notes intended for Beginners in the Epic Dialect, accompanied with numerous references to Hadley's Greek Grammar, Kühner's larger Grammar, and to Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses. By James R. Boise. pp. ix., 235. Chicago: S. C. Griggs & Co.

Professor Boise has pursued in his Homer the same general plan followed by him in editing the Anabasis. His notes are chiefly grammatical, and like all such notes fail sufficiently to point out æsthetic beauties in the text, or awaken literary enthusiasm in the student. In his reference to authorities on the subject of "the Homeric question," he refers to Smith and Grote, but not to Gladstone, Blackie, and others of high authority. He thinks that the discussion of that topic is out of place in an elementary work. Whereas, we believe just the reverse, and are confident that no better service could be rendered to the student just entering on Homer, than to present, in a preliminary essay, a chapter embodying the literary history of the great epic, and of the discussions to which it has given rise among scholars. The text used is that of Dindorf, as published by B. G. Teubner.

German, the Scottish, the American, and the Welsh
pulpit. Some of the sermons have not heretofore
appeared in print. It is scarcely necessary to say
that such a volume is a storehouse of eloquence
and faith, one which cannot be explored without
being found profitable and suggestive. The intro-
ductory chapters, by the editor, abound in historical
and biographical information.

Foreign Missions, their Relations and Claims. By
Rufus Anderson, D. D., LL. D. pp. xiv., 373.
New York: Charles Scribner & Co.

American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Mis-
Dr. Anderson, by his long connection with the
sions, as their Secretary, became peculiarly qualified
for the preparation of such a work as the present.
It had its immediate origin in a series of lectures
delivered in the Theological Seminary at Andover,
and subsequently before the seminaries at Bangor,
Hartford, Auburn, Princeton, and the Union Semi-
nary. The lectures are fifteen in number, and they
discuss practically the various aspects of the mis-
sionary question. Ten papers constitute an appen-
dix, in which various special topics are more briefly
presented.

A Practical Manual of the Treatment of Club-Foot. By Lewis A. Sayre, M. D. pp. vii., 91. New York: D. Appleton & Co.

The object of this monograph has been to convey in as concise a manner as possible the practical information and instruction necessary to enable the general practitioner to apply that plan of treatment which has been so successful in the author's hands. Dr. Sayre is well known as Professor of Orthopedic Surgery in Bellevue Hospital College. The text is illustrated with numerous drawings.

NATURAL HISTORY,

The Birds of East Pennsylvania and New Jersey. By William P. Turnbull, LL.D., &c. 8vo., pp. 50. Richard McCaulley.

A valuable catalogue of the resident and migratory birds found in Pennsylvania eastward of the Alleghany Mountains, and of New Jersey, including the coast line from Sandy Hook to Cape May. It also furnishes us with a list of those birds which have disappeared, and calls attention to the necessity of further legislation to prevent species, now becoming rare, from being totally destroyed. Frogs and their Contributions to Science. By John V. Lansing, M. D. Pamphlet. 8vo., pp. 18. An interesting article, read before the Albany

FICTION.

pp. 202.

Winifred, Countess of Nithsdale; a Tale of the Jacobite Wars. By Lady Dacre. pp. 320. Each of these is from D. & J. Sadlier & Co., New York. Lady Herbert's story is stated to be, in the main, true, and is intended to show how we may entail suffering on ourselves by acting even on a generous impulse. Lady Dacre's volume is founded on incidents in Scottish history.

Problematical Characters; a Novel. By Friedrich Spielhagen. pp. viii., 507. New York: Leypoldt & Holt.

Leypoldt & Holt announce a series of six novels from the German of Friedrich Spielhagen, of which the present one, translated by Professor Schele De Vere, is the first. The publication is stated to be made by copyright arrangement with the author. Spielhagen was born in Magdeburg in 1829, and is now residing in Berlin. His life appears to have been passed in literary pursuits of different kinds, "Westminster Review" says that, in Germany, he including fiction, poetry, and criticism. rank amongst the modern writers of fiction. is generally acknowledged to occupy the foremost

Vanity Fair; a Novel without a Hero. By William
Makepeace Thackeray. pp. viii., 464. Boston:
Fields, Osgood & Co.

We have before referred to this Household Edi

tion of Thackeray's novels. It corresponds in general appearance with the recent edition of Charles Reade's novels, by the same house. The volumes are quite cheap, considering their excellent In-style of manufacture; are printed on good paper, with

Oldtown Folks. By Harriet Beecher Stowe. PP. viii., 608. Boston: Fields, Osgood & Co. The author, in a preface signed Horace Holyoke, states that the object of this story is to interpret to the world the New England life and character in that particular time of its history which may be called the seminal period. The publishers state that this is the first novel Mrs. Stowe has written since 1852, and that the author herself declares that she has never been more interested in any literary work she has undertaken. The Changed Brides. By Mrs. Emma D. E. N. pp. 503. Philadelphia: T. B.

Southworth. Peterson & Bros.

This is, we believe, the twenty ninth of Mrs. Southworth's works, and, judging from the rapidity with which large editions of her numerous stories are absorbed by the public, she must have many admiring readers.

Waverley Novels.

D. Appleton & Co., New York, have completed an additional volume of their new edition of Waverley, containing "The Heart of Mid-Lothian," "Count Robert of Paris," "Fair Maid of Perth," and "Woodstock." They are published at a low rate, are printed from new stereotype plates, are compact in form, illustrated, and furnished with all the notes of the author.

Norman Leslie: A New York Story. By Theodore S. Fay. pp. 391. New York: G. P. Putnam & Son.

Mr. Fay's story appeared originally nearly forty years ago. It is now revised, without any attempt to remove what the author modestly designates as "its evidences of youthfulness and inexperience." The trial scenes especially are written with graphic vigor.

Malbone, an Old Port Romance. worth Higginson. pp. 244. good & Co. Mr. Higginson's former volume, "Out-Door Papers," consisted of a collection of miscellaneous essays on various subjects. In his present work, however, we have a connected story written in the same vigorous and impressive style. Another publication by the same author is announced entitled "Army Life in a Black Regiment."

Waterloo, a Sequel to the Conscript of 1813. Translated from the French of Erckmann-Chatrian. With six full-page illustrations. pp. 368. New York: Charles Scribner & Co.

The London " Army and Navy Gazette," in speaking of "The Conscript," by the same authors, says that since the days of De Foe there has probably never been written a fiction which looked so like

truth as the story of the great Napoleonic Wars. The present volume carries the narrative forward to the culminating point. It enters into detail, and may be studied by the reader as a systematic and intelligible sketch of the movements of the troops.

POETRY.

Beautiful Snow, and Other Poems. By J. W. Watson. pp. 96. Philadelphia: Turner Brothers.

Mr. Watson writes with vigor, and we have read most of the contents of the volume with a great deal of pleasure. Several of the pieces can scarcely fail to impress the reader very forcibly, and will touch the feelings by their tenderness. The volume has been produced by the publishers in a handsome style of typography and general manufacture.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Mississippi Valley, its Physical Geography: including Sketches of the Topography, Botany, Climate, Geology, and Mineral Resources, and of the Progress of Development in Population and Material Wealth. By J. W. Foster, LL.D. pp. xvi., 443. Chicago: S. C. Griggs & Co.

The admirers of the authoress, and she deservedly has many, will not fail to be drawn towards this, the latest production of her pen. It is of course far less elaborately constructed than "The Spanish Gypsy," but it is artistic and complete, and, although not forcibly striking, is nevertheless quite energetic. It is based on one of Boccacio's stories. The Poetical Works of Henry Kirke White. With Life by Robert Southey. pp. viii., 456. New York: D. Appleton & Co. This is an addition to the popular edition of stand-Already this valley contains a majority of the people ard poets which the publishers are now issuing. The merit in the selection of the authors, and the low price of the volumes, should insure the success

From Robert Carter & Bros., New York. Tommy Try, and What He Did in Science. Charles Ottley Groom Napier. pp. vii., 303. New York: D. Appleton & Co. Few books could be written which would more pleasantly excite in the youthful mind the curiosity which prompts to a study of natural and physical science. The illustrations are numerous, the subjects of the different chapters are diversified, end each of them is presented in an interesting and attractive manner. The volume will be a favorite in the families into which it may be introduced.

Good Measure; a Story for Boys. By D. S. Erickson. pp. 377. Boston: Henry A. Young & Co. The publishers have produced this volume in an excellent style of manufacture. Paper, typography, and binding are excellent.

Corwin's Nest Series. Boston: Andrew F. Graves. There are three volumes in this series: "Little Tot's Lesson," "Birth-day Party," ," "Bessie and the Squirrels." They are well printed, in legible style, and very neatly bound.

Molly's Bible. By Mary Dwinell Chellis. pp. 404. From Henry A. Young & Co., Boston. Glimpses of Pleasant Homes, a Few Tales for Youth. By a Member of the Order of Mercy. pp. xv., 236. New York: The Catholic Publication Society.

The views of the authoress as expressed in the preface deserve most serious attention, and the facts of recent social life in this country go far to confirm what she says. The Stories which she tells illustrate her sentiments in an admirable and pointed way, and serve to call marked attention to the contrast between the system of education by the State, or by proxy, and the olden system of home education.

The work before us cannot fail to take a high rank among those which are devoted to the same general subject. Mr. Foster has devoted many years to explorations in different parts of the Mississippi valley, and the study of its natural features.

of the United States, and each year is adding greatly to its resources and influence. While a scientific element pervades the author's method of treatment, all that he says is nevertheless quite intelligible ed, as for instance the influence of climate on man, to the general reader. Some of the topics discussthe great problems of human history, and shed in the eleventh chapter, connect themselves with light on the past no less than the present. Numerous maps and tables add to the value of the text. The work will attract attention from the intrinsic it has been produced by Messrs. Griggs & Co., the excellence of its contents, and we should add that publishers, in a style which reflects the highest commendation upon their taste and skill. Men, Women, and Ghosts. By Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Author of "Gates Ajar," etc. pp. 334. Boston: Fields, Osgood & Co. It is impossible, of course, to say from this title what are the contents of the volume. We state,

therefore, that the book consists of ten stories, the respective subjects of which are "No News," Tenth of January,' "Night Watches," "The Day of my Death," ," "Little Tommy Tucker," "One of the Elect," "What was the Matter?"" In the Gray Goth," "Calico," Kentucky's Ghost." Women in Prison. By Caroline H. Woods. pp. vi., 193. New York: Hurd & Houghton.

[ocr errors]

This purports to be the experience of a matron of a prison. It contains graphic narratives of experiences among prisoners in a congregate institution, for no such events could possibly take place under a system which separated the convicts from each other.

Views of Life; Addresses on the Social and Religious Questions of the Age. By W. T. Moore. pp. 351. Cincinnati R. W. Carroll & Co.

There are thirteen addresses in this volume. Some people may admire them, some may be benefited by them, perhaps their effect on all may be beneficial. There are, nevertheless, particular paswhich we cannot but regard as open to exception, sages and sentiments scattered through the volume though their exceptional aspect may perhaps arise from the extreme form in which the author has frequently expressed himself for the purpose, it may be, of drawing attention to his views. Whether the words on page 73, indicating the trinity of the Hebrews and of the Greeks, stand in need of more accurate scholarship or more accurate proof-reading, we cannot, of course, say, but they certainly need revision. The publishers have issued the book in an extremely creditable style.

Mental Photographs, an Album for Confessions; or Tastes, Habits, and Convictions. Edited by Robert Saxon. New York: Leypoldt & Holt.

This is a pleasant way of obtaining a record of the taste and character of one's friends. The album contains a number of questions, and the answers will indicate the mental qualities of the answerer; a space being also left for pasting in a photographic likeness.
