Phila.: For sale at Clax ton's. em. 4t0., pp. 196. Although this volume is illustrated and bound holiday style, it is one of the most faithful and rnest of evangelical publications, as may be in crred from the name of the lamented author. _ s lessons of wisdom are commended to the young y the sweetness and grace of the style., and by },e fulness and aptness of the illustrations. 'n eed it is quite interesting to follow the foot notes * nd see from what exceedingly varied sources, eluding Barnes,, Alexander, Amos Lawrence, nd the Report of the Christian Commission in our n country, . Dr. Hamilton's quotations are raven. The Look. can scarcely b 3 excelled in iaptedness to the tasteaand necessities of young en, especially those exposed to the perils of ity life away from home. The illustrations are rawn and executed with much beauty and fidel y to detail, and- greatly enhance the value of he book.

Boston : Tick nor & Fields. 16m0., pp. 336. _ There is great, unusual dramatic power in this rief story, which illustrates, in the lives of two others, the value of critical moments, and the sappointments and disasters which may come a failure to improve them. It is an intricate -woven love story, but of the utmost purity of .ne, and powerfully warning against heartless ess and coquetry, and inculcating lofty, spiritual iews of the great passion. The characters in educed are discriminated and their parts sus ained with a master hand. Religion is recog . ized as a true and only solace; and Scripture is noted with reverence and aptness, there being a arked regard and high appreciation shown for. he Old Testament. " Opportunity" must be set own as among the best products of American ro otance, rivalling Jane Eyre in some of its in enser passages. ENNINOS.

By Charles Dickens. With original illustrations .by S. Etinge. Jr. Diamond Edition. Boston : Ticknor & Fields. This is the last volume of the series, which the üblishere have carried forward.with such praise ,. orthy assiduity from the beginning. Several Uncommercial Traveller" papers; not included in any other American edition; a number of C r s mas Tales—contrihutiohs to the annual Christmas Stories—especially collected and re .vised for this edition by Mr. Dickens himself; ;a complete Index of Characters introduced in Mr. Pickens' Novels, and a Synopsis of Princi- Lpal Incidents are included in this volume. The characteristic features of this edition—we take this opportunity to repeat—are compactness, clearness of typography, marvellously effective llestrations, handsome, strong bindirtg, and low -ice. This and the other two editions by the ame publishers—the "Charles Dickens" and lc Illustrated Library"—are the' only ones Ithorized by Mr. Dickens in this country. .11. D PICTURES from Dickens.

It is well known that Mr. Dickens took a pro and interest in the, child characters and inci its of his stories, and gave some of them a fin equal to that bestowed on any other parts of works. Many of these qharacters and sketch are brought together in this volume—as: Lit- Nell, Paul and Florence, Tiny Tim, The Fat Snake, Oliver Twist. To.which might have tn added David Copperfield, on his wretched tup to his kind old Aunt Betsy Trotwood. The ;,ekes are necessarily fragmentary and unsatis tory.

Phila.: American Baptist Publica tion Society. 12m0., pp. 264. Illustrated. Here is a beautiful memorial to one who rose in an humble station in life to great wealth, and proved the sincerity and intelligence of his ,y by the princely liberality of his gifts to re nts and charitable objects. The volunie ex ts much of the personal experience . , of the drawn from the diary which he faithfully it Ihr a long time, and it shows us the prince giver in those other forms of domestic and linCA life in which the Christian public desire see him. Few men in the Church of our day leave a brighter rcoord or win a more THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 1868. able reputation among their survivors, than Mr. Crozer has done. Ho gave hugely during lire, but by the terms of his will and the spirit he had infused into his family, he has been the means, since his death, of even greater benefactions out of the great wealth he was permitted to leave. It is now the "Crozer family,"—several instead of one, a stream with many branches into which the fountain has flowed, and which promises to bless the world by wise and noble enterprises for Christ down to remote generations. To give well is a great gain; but to magnetize others with a liberal spirit is far greater. SHINING Licur. A book for young Christians. Phila.: Presbyterian Board of Publication. 18mo., pp. 144.

ARTHUR'S MOVE MAGAZINE, January. 1868. ANOTHER GREAT POPULAR LOAN. It is commonly known that the General -Govern ment, for wise purposes, has given its aid and en couragement to the construction of one MAIN THROUGH LINE OF RAILROAD from the Pacific Ocean across the Territories, to connect with the various Eastern Branches of the Pacific Railroad system, and which will 'toxin The GRAND TRUNK RouTE' to the Far West, upon which the mighty trans-continental traffic 'will concentrate. - THE CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY—who are carrying it forward with greater energy and persistence than was ever shown. - in any similar work, in ancient or modern titues--will build, equip, own, and control the western 'hail of this Through Line, the most productive, favored; and valuable portion of the whole; and may justly'be regarded as possessing the richest franchise ever granted on this continent. • The Act of Congress monfers 'upon the Corpora-. tionsi-beside the right of- way across the Territories, a . gift of 12,800'acres of the public lands per mile, contiguous to this line, and an appropriation from the National Credit of SarrY MlLLioas in '6 PER CENT. BONDS; delikered as the *Orltc;pi6,gresses, or half the estimated cost of the Through. 'Line and Branches. These subsidy bonds the Companies may cancel in a conrse of years by ; the transportation services of the Roads, and a small.yer centage of its net earnings v . they, therefore, constitute an .eie-' ment of great strength to the Corporation. 'The Act further authorizes them to issue an equal amount of their own .First Mortgage Bonds Of cor responding denominations, which shall be the first claim upon the whole railroad property, and to which the. lien of the Government shall be subordinate. - The GREAT CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD is, there fore, in an important sense, a SEMI-NATIONAL WORK, aided and. commended by the peoPle, the .Legislative power, and the Executive officers, though its management is administered with all the care and forethought of the most eminent private „corporations. Being under the constant supervision of the Gover nment—who, being the principal creditor, aCcepts a subordinate and contingent - lien—with so large 'an amount of :additional capital also invested in the property pledged, it, is believed that no securities now offered in the market possess the same claims to confidence and market value except , those of the Government. Under these favoring - auspices very gratifying pro gress has been made in eitending the railroad track from both directions. Nearly 1,000 miles of the Main Line and converging *branches. between : the Missouri River andithe base of the Rocky Mountains have been built within three years. The CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD has also steadily and success fully carried the Main-Stem Line from the steam boat navigation of the Pacific to the summit of the Sierra Nevadas, and into the great Salt Lake Basin east of the California line. Having overcome by far , the most difficult and expensive portion of the whole line, the probabilities of the through con nection with the eastern lines being effected m'lB7o, amount almost to a certainty. The prominent feature in the progress, of the Central Pacific Railroad is the remarkably large and profitable Local Business which is developed upon the completed portion : more than justifying the estimates of its projectors—that the immense traffic between the ports of California and the Mining Regions of the Interior would sustain a first class railroad line, even if the overland connection were not built. The net profit upon operating the link of less than 100 miles, thus far reaches nearly two millions in gold; and this ratio will be doubled during the coming season, when the entire moun tain transit is made by the locomotive. With every extension of the track' the business and profits of the completed part are increased ; so that when the Overland through traffic shall be centered upon the Ceutral. Road, the general prosperity of the Com pany will be without parallel, and its Securities ap preciated correspondingly. GET THE. BEST.
