GLENNAIR, OR LIFE IN SCOTLAND, by Helen
Hazlett. author of " Heights of Eidelberg," is a
fiction, the interest of which turns upon charges
of forgery and embezzlement made against per
sons in high standing, and upon seemingly con
clusive proof. The style is animated and the
events are sufficiently startling. We are treated
to a perilous journey by land and water, a Rob
ber's Cave, one death, and the fear of two or
three more in the family, several collapses in
fainting spells besides the bank robbery, in the
first three chapters. The impression made,
though strpng, is somewhat confused. But the
interest is well sustained throughout, and cul
minates in the vindication of the innocent and
the discomfiture of the guilty. The book is un
exceptionable in its moral tone, and most deci
sive and emphatic in its inculcation of those
principles which have their clearest recognition
in the Word of God. Philadelphia : Claxton,
Remsen & Haffelfinger.
The Third of SORIENER's ILLUSTRATED LI
BRARY OF WONDERS, is upon the. WONDERS, OF
HEAT. This is a more strictly scientific book
than its predecessors, and in some important re
spects more valuable. But its popular character
is maintained by the multitude of experiments
which it describes, and by the rare beauty and accu
racy of the accompanying illustrations, which are
nearly one hundred in number. 12m0., pp. 265.
Price, $1 50.
BREAKERS AHEAD j or, Larry Dalton, by,
Harriet B. McKeever, is one of the best books
of this writer, marked by her good qualities as well,
as those not so good. Spirit and aim are most
wholesome and Christian. The first half of the
narrative is sprightly and interesting, but a
large part is utterly without invention or vigor,
wearisome for its very small tali and not worth the
paper it is printed on. Had the last half of the
book been reduced to half the size, it would have
almost doubled the value of the whole. Phila
delphia: J. P. Skelly tt Co. ,
Juveniles.
TEDDY'S DREAiII ; OR, LITTLE SWEEP'S MIS
aoN, by Emma Leslie, is one of the very best of
Children's Books. The characters of Teddy and
of all his associates are drawn with no little
originality, and the story of, the little
. boy who
so loved the sunshine and who yet was doomed to
be a chimney sweep is told with a.skill and pathos
that carry away, the reader. The power of
prayer, and the value of temperance
,principles ,
are well illustrated. Carter &Bros. 18mo., pp.
174, illustrated.
THE TRUE STORY. Li - sumtv,,by Mrs.. Julia
McNair Wright, with its round, dozen of neat
little volumes in large type, handsomely bound
and packed in a box, is a sight to make the eyes
of the little ones dance. Thanks to the Corn
mittee for such a proof of remembrance of the
youngest readers and listeners. The stories are'
all true, drawn from Scripture and from. actual.
life, and are well adapted to give wholesome en:
tertainment to the class for whom theyareinten

RELIGION OF SHAKESPEARE -The Rock, an
Engtish journal, in an article on the religion of
Shakespeare remarks that "it is a singular and
significant fact that nowhere in Shakspeare do
we find the character of a sober-minded, philo
sophic infidel or sceptic. Such a creature was
unknown in his day, and such a conception was
ever abhorrent from the poet's mind." It avows
the firm conviction that Shakespeare believed in
the Christian religion, and most probably in the
faith of the Reformed Church
EDUCAMONAL.--Spain.--Sixty-five per cent.

per cent. of its.female population are unable to

speak well for the prospect of establishing a re.
public in that country.. It needs fewer priests
and more schoolmasters. England.—The pre

close of the war, have been succeeded by 6,000

READING SERMONS.—The practice of read
ing from a manuscript seems only to have come
in after the Reformation, and even then to have
been for a long time exceptionable and unpopu
lar. The Puritans, with one consent and with a
torrent of violent abuse, as was their fashion,
scouted it. Even after the Restoration it was
only tolerated, and not always that. An ordi
nance issued by Charles 11. to the University of
Cambridge in 1674, declares that the practice
"took its beginning from the disorders of the
times," and forbids " that supine and slothful
way of preaching " to be used at the Universi
ties in future. lint it crept in again and main
tained its ground.—Blackwood.
COUNT BISMARCK once presented a faithful
but poor secretary with a portfolio, bound like a
book, in which were deposited 500 thalers.' On
meeting the secretary the next day, the Count
asked him if he had perused the volume. " Yes,
your highness," said the secretary, " and I was
so captivated by its contents that I am-'weiting
the appearance of the second volume with feeling
of the 'greatest interest." The Count smiled, but
said nothing. , A few days afterward the secre
tary :received a second portfolio bound and filled

PROF. OWEN ON MR. DARWIN'S TEEEORIES.
" Our Monthly Gossip ". in LippincoteB is re
sponsible for thp,followino• summary of the, views
of Prof. Owen, of the &pal Philosophical So
ciety, on Mr. Darwin's Theories :
He rejects the Principle of direct or miracu-'
lons creation, and recognizes a natural law or se
condary cause 'as operative in the production of
species in orderly succession and pro,gression. 'At
the same time he calls attention to the fact that
the operation of this law scorns to have been pre , '
destined by the Allwise Creatog so 'that the
horse, for example; was developed' from. pre
existing forms just as the' period.when the hu-.
man race itself came into being. Professor Owen
rejects Darwin's theory as explaining the origin,
but accepts it as accounting for the extinction, of
species. He speaks of •Lyell as "'one destitute'
of qualifications for grappling with the. 'difficulties
of this profound genetic problem; in philosophy,"
and considers his endorsement oof Darwin's hypo
thesis and his condemnation of that of Lamarck.
as'being equally withont Value.. His own theOry
is given in•tho following,words: "I debni an in
timate tendency to deviate from parental type,
operating' through Pericids of 'adequate duration,'
to be-the most probable nature, or way of opera
tion, of the. secondary 'law ; whereby species have
been, derived one from the other. . . Genera=-
dons do not vary accidentally, in any and"every
direction; ' but in preordained, definite, and 'eor:
related bourses. The learned writer considers
life in its lowest forms as analogous to cryitalliza
tion : "It analogically conceivable that' the
lame CAUSE which has endowed His world with
power convertible:into magnetic, eleCtric, therinotie
or other forms or, modes of force, - has also added
the conditions of conversion into the vital mOde.".
Professor Owen considers thought to be a form
of force, and the result of the' action Of the
brain , and replies to the anticipated charge of
materialism by saying that his ".faith'in a future
life and the resurrection .of the dead rests on the
grounds of their being a part of divine reVela
tion."
The above brief and huperfect but, we believe;
accurate condensation of the great naturalist's
last words on these interesting themes, is well
calculated to make the unlearned reader pause
and reflect oil the tendencies of modern Scienee.

The stated meeting of the ' Presbytery 'of Mon-
trose, Pa., was held at Nicholson, April .20th.
Twenty ministers and fourteen elders were in at

Within the year past, three church buildings
have been completed :—at Honesdale, Union
dale and Nicholson. Another is nearly ready
for dedication at Gibson. That at Honesdale
'cost $40,000. On Thursday, Presbytery united
with the people of Nicholson, in dedicating
the attractive church which the liberality and
perseverance of a; young and feeble congregation
had succeeded in erecting. Rev. William F.
Arms was installed pastor of the church on
Thursday evening. The sermon was preached
by th'e father of the pastor-elect, Rev. H. P. Arms,
D.D., of Norwich, Conn. Charge 'to the pastor,

A mission was reported as recently established

much promise, under the charge of Rev. Win.
Ellers, who was received by letter from the Pres
bytery of Salem, Incl. A new church, under the
name of Calvary Presbyterian church of Milwau
kee, was received under care of Presbytery.
This church is located in the west part of the
city, and is an enterprise long called for. It
commences existence with bright prospects, is
composed mostly of colonies from the First Pres.
and North churches numbering 70 efficient metn
bers. The churches under care of Presbytery
report unusual religious interest. In the church
of Jefferson, there is at present a cheering work
of.eaee. • One •• year since, this church held a
very doubtful prospective existence. Rev. John
