LONGFELLOW'S NEW ENGLAND TRAGEDIES
•tre little more than a simple narrative, in dramatic
form, and in (very) blank verse, of passages in
the colonial history of Massachusetts illustrating
the intolerance of which the colony was guilty
towards a few fanatical Quakers, and the melan
choly outbreak of superstition against the
supposed witchcraft of Salem. The first Trag
edy, " John Endicott," is named after a. son of
Governor Endicott, who creates a breach between
himself and his father by opposing the intoler
ant laws of the colony, and by sympathizing with
the Quakers. Only hints of the deeply interes
ting and romantic elements, which we might have
expected the poet more especially to elaborate,
are given. There is nothing to move either
laughter or tears, bat only a quiet, contempla
tive judgment upon the intolerant age;out of
which, in God's providence, have grown: the free
institutions of America. Even the gist of
the tragedy is given in words which will scarce
ly be memorable for the beauty of poesy or the
crispness of proverb. Norton, the Puritan preach-.
er, referring to Satan, says :
It is his cunning craft,
The master-piece of his diplomacy,
To cry and plead for boundless toleration.
But toleration is the first-born child
Of all abomb ations and deceits.
There is no room in Christ's triunipant army
For tolerationists.
" Giles Corey" has a much deeper pathos, as
well beseems the dreadful tale of the - one vic
tim of the excitement who was executed by be
ing crushed to death. But the author of Hia
wathaand Evangeline cannot compass a tragedy.
He can give no end of refined, gentle . pleasure,
but he is utterly wanting in the majesty, mas
siveness, intensity and profound mastery of char=
actor, motive and passiOn, that ate indispensable
in this kind of writing. He follows history
closely, giving rather a more favorable view of. Cot
ton Mather's part in the witchcraft, than could. be
gathered from Bancroft. His versifications of
Scripture passages are very successful. $1.50,,
THE ATLANTIC AT,MANAO for 1869 is aide
licious annual ; its articles are written with the
airy gracefulness, and the refined humor which
seem native to Boston and Cambridge, and which
well become what is designed for rational enter.:
tainment, rather than for scientific information.
Not that any part of the well prepared pamph
let is wanting in more or less value. Birds and
flowers and farm work, with other topics, are
treated by J. Russell Lowell, Charles. James
Sprague, Donald Mitchell (the editor) and oth
ers; Mrs. Stowe writes' on Choosing Pictures;
Josiah Quincy of " The Middle States" (Missis
sippi Valley), Oliver Wendell Holmes of the
Human Body and its Management, and Dr. J.
P. Thompson on the Risks and Failures of City
Life. The illustrations are numerous, four being
full page chromes and the others elegantly de
signed and executed wood-cuts. Boston : Tick
nor & Fields. Price, 50 cents.
SMILES' LIFE OP GEORGE STEPHENSON, re
printed by the Harpers, is the history of a life
identified with the greatest feats of modern en
gineering, particularly in railways and bridges.
It is the life of one who rose from poverty and
obscurity, through self-education and indomita
ble courage and native talent, to one of the most
eminent positions among, the leaders of the civ
ilized nations in the extraordinary progress of
the middle third of the nineteenth century.
Those who would understand that progress, must
acquaint themselves with the man who projected
and carried through the first English railway,
who greatly improved the locomotive, and who
built the great tubular bridge over the Menai
Straits and trained his son Robert to build a
similar structure—the Victoria bridge.-"—over the
St. Lawrence at Montreal. It is a story of ab
sorbing interest, written in a clear unpretending
style, and illustrated with many of the richest
and most striking of the wood-cut illustrations
for which the Harpers have such a high reputa
tion. Bvo., pp. 501.
JUVENILES.
JEM MORRISON THE FISHER BOY is a reprint
by Claxton of an English story, showing how by
faithfulness and good principle, as well as the
manifest leadings of Providence, a work-house
boy got up in the world. " TOM AND SARAH
NEAL," republished by the same house, is a story
constructed with unusual skill and designed to illus.
trate the liability of the man who is only mor
ally and not graciously reformed, to pass from
one kind of sin, as wasteful self-indulgence—to
its opposite—parsimony and greed, accompanied
with self-confidence and envy. One of the best
of S. S. and juvenile books.
DOTTY DIMPLE OUT WEST, from Lee &
Shepard, is one of a series, which like Carter's
"Bessie" series, has become deservedly famous in
juvenile literature, al belonging to, and faithfully
representing the real child's world. The ideas,
the reasonings, the oravingsi the wonderings, the
unconscious wit, the peculiar events and the ver
nacular of six year old children 'are the, staple of
these volumes. The Bessie books involve the
child's conscience and religious nature, much
more than the Dotty books, which are scarcely
suited for Sunday reading, though most pure,
healthful and enjoyable. Price, 75 cents.
From the same publishers comes THE LIME
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22 ; 1868.
SPANIARD, one of the Helping Hand series, by
May Mannering, in which the romantic life of a
poor Spanish boy, who is the support of his aged
parents, is patronized by American children,
stolen by gypsies, &c., is made the ground-work
of much valuable and skilfully conveyed infor
mation about Spain. Price, $l.OO.
From the same we have : How TO CONQUER,
by CATHARINE M. TROWBRIDGE, a Temperance
story of Falls and Recoveries, healthful and en
couraging in tone, interesting in incident but
deficient in skill and power. 16m0., pp. 297, il
lustrated. Also : EDNA WILLIS, a thrilling
story of the brave struggles of a motherless girl
for the worse than fatherless family left to her
care in the great world of London ; also, GRACE
ROCHE'S LEGACY, by the favorite author of
"Margaret and her Friends," illustrating the
superiority of those who depend under God on
themselves, rather than mope about what they re
gard as their rights, unjustly withheld; and
teaching in the most effective manner the Scrip
tural lesson that a man's life eonsisteth not in
the things that he hath. 16m0., pp. 193.
COUSIN CLARA OR THE MISLAID JEWELS, by
Francis Forrester, is one of the " Lindendale
Stories," and is designed to illustrate the train
of folly and sin into which the first misstep, un
confessed, and craftily • concealed will lead the
offenders and other associated with them. It is
an excellent object and it is accomplished most
effectively and• skilfully. The• unhappy stylish
family in New York and the tipsy New Year's
callers are Well described. 16rn0., pp. 246.
THE PIVOT WORDS OF' SCRIPTURE by Philip
B. Power, author of the "I Wills of the Psalms,"
&c., is not a philological nor exegetical discus
sion, nor precisely a practical dissertation based
on the deep significance of certain Scripture
terms, but rather meditations on passages in
which much of the sense turns upolia single word,•
as gi Then," in the account of Christ's tempta
tion, "Here,"in <Abrahaim's answer to the LOrd's
call to give up Isaac, &c. Meantime, the' author
in the affluence of his spiritual conceptions'` by
no means confines himaelf to these pirotat parts
of his texts, but expatiates over many other as
pects of the truth as suggested in the same con
nection: ", As'usual, the author is earnest, heart
searching and effective in these discourses,,and
illustrations drawn from active life give peculiar
value and freshness •to the whele. .1.2ni0., bev-
