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

he book. One of tam is, we think,'open to the
bjection of presenting tio clearly the attractions

as a. Opportunity. A Novel, by Anne Moncure
Crane, author of " Emily Chester." 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.

DIAMOND DICKENS COMPLETE.
0 ICKENS. The Uncommercial Traveller, and Addi
tional Christmas Stories. 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.

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.

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.

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.
