New Publications.
As attractive, bosun as good, a family book as
we have seen for some time, is a oolleotion of arti
cles, from the pen of Mr. Robert Morris, which have
appeared in the Pennsylvania inquirer, which
he has edited for many years It bears the titlo
of " Courtship and Matrimony, with other
Sketches from Scones and Experiences in Social
Life " and its appropriate frontispiece is a su
perbly engraved portrait of the author, which is
an admirable likeness. The whole getting up of
the volume is ereditabM to the liberality and taste
of the publishers, T. B. Peterson de Brothers. The
staple of this book is plain oommon-sense, and a
vein of good morality ,runs through the whole.
New and thon, thorn is a infusion of the imagina-
Mite and a gentle breathing of the poetic. Pr--
ducted an these articles nem:seat:lly were, to meet
the eonetant exigencies of a daily newspaper
their literary merit is considerable. We notice the
singular circumstance that this volume has a dou
ble-barreled dedication to Mr. John Grigg: one is
si.ned "By the Author," while the other ema
nates from " Thmikas 'Fitzgerald." Wo do not
understand this dui:Mention
'From Ticknor and Fields, the eminent Boston
publishers, we have received the Hew volume of
poetry, so long looked for, by Philiplamesßailey,
author of that remarkable, striking, and exaggera
ted poom "Fescue " This now venture beam the
name of " The Age : a Colloquial Satre." Here
wo would notice the curious tendency 6f the lead
ing poets of England, in these Inter days, not to
fulfil the bright promise of their earlier produo-
Cons. Tennyson's "Princess," two-thirds of which,
if printed as ptrse. would have passed for prose. _
was a sad falling off, and his "Maud was even a
yet more flngrant failure. Robert Browning's
"Mon and Women" was poor, compared with his
former productions. And here is Mr. Bailey, whose
Peens" really was a fine poem, though with
many faults He split, in "The Mystic," upon
sesquipedalian words, and in " The Age " gate out
of the path of poetry into the beaten track of com
mon-place. Hero are over 0,000 lines, not more
than 300 of which would pass muster, In the Court
of Apollo as truly poetic. The work is colloquial—
the interlocutor being an Author who brings his
unpublished book to a Critic, with whom is asso
ciated a Friend. There is an immense quantity of
talk, through nearly 200 pages, upon all subjects
except the Author's manuscript, the opinion on
which is postponed. The poetry, into which some
bad puns and miserable forced rhymes are inter
jected. is terribly colloquial. Here is Mr. Bailey
facetious, the subjeot being Sir Charles Napier,
who took the British fleet into the Baltic, and did
not take Oronatadt :
Critic. There is our fine old tar, we often meet,
Who every year no dreads the French will gobble us,
And says, ~ .lonly ask you for a Fleet,"—
Like BoSentinel begging for an °bolus,—
"Five millions down, armed men and spirits neat;"
If be expects it, well, he's rather sea•groeni
There's Tab, and mild Sir John, both now quite tea
green—
Friend. And there's yourself; - you, certainly, are
pea-green.
Here, again, is one of the few gems which shine
hrough the darkness of this colloquial satire. It
not only poetical but true:
As the poor shell-fish of the Indian sea,
Elick—rovin years sick—of its fins malady,
The pearl (which after shall enrich the breast
Of some fair princess regal in the West)
Its gem elaborates 'noath the unrestful main,
In worth proportioned to Its parent's pain,
Until, in roseate lustre perfect grown,
Pate brine it forth, as worthy of a throne;—
So must the poet, martyr of his art,
Peed on neglect, and thrive on rz any a smart
Death only, may be, gives him equal right,
And nations glory in his royal light.
In a charming little volume, juat issued by the
Appleton of New York, and mailed "The Coopers;
or Getting under Way," we are pleased to recog
nise the line Italian hand of Alice B. llaviin, a
woman of aortae as well as of talent. Seldom has
tbo state immediately following marriage been ED
faithfully photographed. Wo thank " Cousin
Aliso" for a pleasant book.
Here is another authoress, who shyly announces
herself only as " An Irish Lady," and has made up
a neat 600 page volume, not in poetry bat rhyme,
Valitittr -- , MI - JIMMIE , nev,-
(loography of Europe " This is one of the most
singular books we ever saw. It is literally a Ma
nual of European Clecgraphy, crowded with facts,
and all in verse. Considering the extreme difli
oulty of such a labor, it is executed remarkably
well. Its accuracy is almost ttultless, and there is
reason as well as so_ mo here;—even the .pronun
elation of !veal names is disiinetly noted.
Yet another female writer! Here wo have
Lola Monies, with a little book, (published by
Dick it, Fitzgerald, of Now York,) entitled " The
Arta of Beauty; or the Seeeets of n Lady's
Toilet." The subject touched upon in Lola's lec
ture upon Beautiful Women, is here expanded, arid
the elementary principles are set do en as Cleanli
ness, Exorcise, and Activity of mind and !body.
To thee are added numerous simple recipes for
preserving the charms with which Nature has so
fully enriched the fair sox. The style of the
work is easy and graceful, with a dash of
pleasant satire, gossip, and personal anecdote.
Fifty "Hints to Gentlemen on the Art of Fasei-•
noting," appropriately conclude this amusing
volume. They aro saucy, as welt as "founded
on facts."
The new number of the London Quarterly Re
view (New York republication) has boon sent us
by W. B. Veber With the exception of the ar
tioles on Admiral Blake, Don Bridges, (highly in
teresting) the Life of Wycliffe, and the British
Museum, i t Is rather a heavy somber.
Blaokie k Son, the well-known Scottish pub
lishers—who, we believe, never gave nn indifferent
work to the world—have established a branch at
New York, whence is now issuing "A Comprehen
sive History of India; Civil, Military, and Saotal;
from the Landing of the English to the Suppres
sion of the Sepoy Revolt " It is to be illustrated
by live hundred engravings, on wood and steel, and
the three first numbers, which we have seen, and
which bring the antecedent history down to the
middle of the Sixteenth Century, are full of pro
mise. Messrs. Blaellie have also commenced issu
ing a Comprehensive Family Bible, annotated and
indexed by Dr. David Davidson, with a series of
illustrations, including historical subjects; the
whole to be completed in thirtyfonr parts, at 25
cents each. The three parts of this work already
issued are excellent, in spirit and material.
Mr. T. B. Pugh, of the Arcade, sends the Sep
tember number of "Le Bon Ton," a journal des
modes and monthly report of Paris Fashions. The
colored engravings are executed in Paris, and their
desoriptions •are given in French and English.
This is a very superior work, giving the latest
Parisian modes.
A Card from Captain Re Revierm
The Courrier des Etats thliS of Saturday pub
lishes a letter from Captain Do Reviere, the hero
of the Blount affair, Ichich letter wo translate as
follows :
To the Editor of the Courrier des Etats Un is :
NEW YORK, August 2, 1858.
Mn. EDITOR : Finding myself at last delivered
from the judicial persecutions to which I have
been so unjustly subjected, 1 come to ask of you a
rectification of the teats which have been commu
nicated to you, and which have been so calumni
ously applied to my person. I deolare that I have
never in any way been connected with fraudu
lent bankruptcies, consequently that I have never
been mixed up with judicial proceedings in
France. Such matters may relate to an individual
whose name resembles mine, but I am indignant
that they should be attributed to me or any mem
ber of my family.
Since the year 1844, I have not ceased to belong
to the French army, and I am now on furlough (en
non artivite) for temporary infirmities resulting
from wounds received in the Crimea. (The very
words of the document signed by Marshal Valliant,
Minister of War.)
As to the matter which has served as a pretext
for the persecution of which I have been tho vic
tim—the pretended abduction of Miss Blount—l
declare all that has been said a lying and mali
cious invention. I personally deny having over
abducted Miss Blount, and still loss Madame
Blount. My part in that affair was limited to ac
companying, upon their demand, and to protest,
at their request, two ladies who endeavored to
escape from an odious tyranny. Inm ready to do
so again.
Hitherto I have been unable to defend myself,
but now I intend to do it, and to obtain justice for
the attacks, which all who are acquainted with
me know to ho malignant. I await from your im
partiality, sir, reparation of the wrong which,
upon false information, you have done to a man
who walks with head erect because he has the
right to carry it so.
Aooept, sir, the assurance of my perfeot conside
ration. Capt. 11. A Dahlman.
The Carrier gives credit to the Captain's state
ment.

The Quarantine War at Staten Island.
From the New York Poet of Saturday evening I
The one hundred policemen required to be sent
to Quarantine by the commissioners of emigration.
arrived there in the steamboat Dr. Kane, at it
o'clock last evening. nearly forty-eight boors after
the first public demonstration of the incendiaries
They wore all armed with the volcanic repeating
riff-aand pistols. furnished by the manufacturers,
and are under command of
. Captain Walling, the
same officer who commanded daring the Segume's
Paint war. They have a six-pounder, with plenty
of ammunition, in charge. The party was ea
oismpanied by Police Commissioners Nye and
Bowen, ar.d Superintendent Talmadge. The boat
also took down a supply of tents, which were im
mediately pitched within the quarantine grounds
and occupied by the sick. Tents wore a so pro
vided for the police, a earan-fl• o was lighted, aim
tinols were posted, and altogether the scene might
be taken for a miniature representation of the
encampment of the allied armies within the ruins
of Sebastopol.
Ray Tompkins, the reported leader of the in
cendiaries, was quietly arrested last evening.
shortly after the arrival of the police. Detective..
officers Milday and Stephenson met -bim in Tom
Burns's bar-room, gad suggested that Messrs. Nye
end Bowen would be glad to confer with him about
the threatened burning of the. shipping. Mr.
Tompkins went with them willingly, and on his
arrival at headquarters was taken into custody on
a warrant issued by Justice Welsh He wee
brought up to the city last night . The warrant
charges him with misdemeanor in violating the
quarantine laws by entering the Quarantine en
closure, Justice Welsh has also issued warrants
for the apprehension of Matthew Carroll, Charles
Stebbins, Muller, and Jacob Vanderbilt.
The warrants wero issued on complaint of Dr.
Thompson. and John F. Raymond, a resident of
Southfield.
The inhabitants of the"infected district"—that
is, the neighborhood where Kremer, a German,
died—were yesterday notified that their dwellings
would be burned at night, but the threat was not
carried into execution, the presence of the police,
and the arrest of the ruling spirit, seeming to have
disheartened the mob.
After delivering Mr Ray Tompkins into the care
of Captain Williamson of the 14th precinct, Detec
tives Stephenson and Wildey returned last night
to Quarantine for further operation. At daybreak
this morning they took a force of twelve police
men, armed with voloanio repeating Ogles, and
sallied forth
They first proceeded to the stable of Matthew
Carroll, near the landing, and Officer Wilda) , took
the proprietor into custody. Then they marched
up the hill about a quarter of a mile to the house of
Charles S. De Forrest, a justice of the peace, who
had boon overheard by the detectives boasting of
his achievements at the fires. The house was in
stantly :surrounded, and the detectives entered.
roused Mr. Do Forrest from his slumbers, and made
him their prisoner. They next proceeded to
the house of William Muller, near , at hand,
which they surrounded in the same manner,
and found Mr. Muller also in bed. Mr. Muller's
daughter, at filet denied that her father was at
home. but that gentleman soon name out and was
arrested. The affair was managed with such
promptitude that there was no opportunity for an
organized resistance, if any had been contem
plated. The prisoners went along quietly, and
expressed no fears as to the result. They were
brought. over to the city at eight o'clock, and
taken before Justice Welsh, at the City Hall po
lioo court, this forenoon.
Mr. Ray Tompkins spent last night at the New
York Hotel, in the custody of an officer, detailed
by Captain Williamson for that purpose. He is
not at all alarmed at his arrest, which be had an.
tioipated, and Societe that he has done nothing be
yond what was authorized by the Castleton Board
of Health. This is the I lea of all the prisoners.
The parties arrested were brought before Jus
tice Welsh, at the Mayor's office, and held to bail
to appear at the Court Of General Sessions for the
city and county of New York on Monday next.
The amount fixed, is two thousand dollars each.
William Muller was bailed by Fridolin Goetse,
and Commodore Vanderbilt will go security for the
others.
Two or three yellow fever and small-pox patients
died at quarantine last night. There is no doubt
that their deaths were hastened, if not oaused, by
exosure to the weather.
SATURDAY, 10 A M.—There was little or no ex
citement about the qoarantine last night. The
inhabitants seem to have become tired out from
their exertions of the twoprevious nights. Ani

A Fearful Gale—Loss of the Barque New
Brunswick and Five of the Crew on
Lake Erie.
The Chatham (Canada West) Pieria learns the
particulars of the foundering of the barque New
Brunswick, Captain MoTavtah, during the gale of
Thursday night last, five miles off Point Pulse :
So fearful was • the gale that all management of
the vessel was lost, and after weathering the sea
some time she foundered. As might be imagined,
the position of the entire crew was perilous.
Without any apparent means of saving themselves
at hand, the faint hope of preserving their lives
seemed groundless.
Upon a foundered vessel in the midst of a ter
rific storm of wind and rain, at midnight, and five
miles from land, hope of reaching the shore in
safety might well be banished from the stoutest
heart. And little wonder was it that five persons,
out of the nine composing the crow, found awatery
grave ere daylight dawned.. Even when morning
had come, the prospect of reaching shore was but
little improved. Not a tool to help to construct
raft was obtained, and had it not been that Capt.
McTavish, with the assistance of a small penknife,
was enabled to detach a ,‘ boom" and ugaft," and
with these materials to construct a miserable raft,
not one soul would have been left to relate the sad
tale of their sufferings.
However, with this little instrument the raft
was launched upon the angry waters, freighted
with the preetous weigh•tof,five mortal beings t, who
left the foundered vessel, with the hope tha by
paddling with their hands, they might gain the
shore five miles distant. This slow process had
been industriously persevered in against the wind
for live hours, when, to the great joy of the Cap
