.1 DAIC BAPTISM.
DR. p Ai x, o f Media, is still pursuing his close
and thorough inquiries into the whole subject of
Bart i,,,,. In his previous work, CLASSIC BAP-
Trot, be showed what classic authorities meant
by the use of the term. He now goes over the
whole ground of Jewish literature, as interpreted
by Jewish scholars and by the Christian fathers,
to get at the meaning by them 'attributed to the
Fame word Bourrt:or. Josephus, Philo, the Apoc
rypha, the Old Testament in Hebrew and Greek,
with a score or two of the Fathers, are searched
with inexhaustible patience and zeal, and the term
in question is held up in all the various lights
presented by the context of some fifty different
passages, in which the word is repeated in one
form or other more than thrice fifty times. His
conclusions are, 1. That Jewish writers are in
perfect accord with the classic. There is no
dipping in the use of the word by either. There
is a " mersion," or " intusposition," a placing the
object within a fluid, without any idea of limit
as to its continuance there, and finally a condition
of the object resultant from controlling influence
and secured without mersion ; as when body and
mind are baptized into insensibility by wine
drinking. (Joset)hus.) 2. As the Greeks spoke
of the Baptism of their deities, Bacchus and
Silenus, by wine drinking, so the Jews steak of
a religious baptism, not by mersion, but by sprink
ling ashes, blood and water. The position taken
in Classic Baptism is regarded as confirmed ;
viz.: that condition of intusposition, involving
complete influence and - not modal act, is the
fundamental idea of the word; while 'it advan
ces to a secondary use, in which intusposition
(as the form by which the influence is effected)
is lost, and influence, in whatsoever way opera
tive, (if capable of thoroughly changing the con
dition of its object and subjecting it to itself)
takes the place of intusposition. He shows how
the word comes to mean, in Jewish use: to puri-
fy ceremoniously, a meaning which had already
been claimed by President Beecher and others,
but until now, without well ascertained ground,
and then concludes the whole, with the following
comprehensive statement : " Judaic Baptism is a
condition of ceremonial purification, effected by
the washing of the hands and feet ; by the sprink
ling of sacrificial blood, or heifer ashes'; by the
pouring on of water; by the touch of a coal of
fire ; by the waving of a flaming sword, and by,
divers other modes and agencies, dependent in
no wise on any form of act, or on the covering of
the object."
Those who would acquaint themselves with
the latest phase of the controversy, presenting
the subject in the most scholarly, acute, and yet
really entertaining manner, will, of course, find
Dr. Dale's book simply indispendble. Phila
delphia : Wm. Rutter & Co. Bvo. pp. 400.
LIPPINCOTT & CO.
A WREATH OF RHvans, by Willie Mayfield,
shows a great Vergatility, if not a great depth of
poetic talent, in which originality and freshness
are not wanting, and a real exuberance of versi
fying power appears in the endleis variety of
metres successfully handled. A vein of true
piety appears not only in the versifications of
Scripture, but runs through the whole work.
Occasionally there are outbreakings of the deep
passion that must go to the composition of a true
poet, but for the most part, the tone is rather of
the lighter type. 16mo. pp. 386. Bevelled edges.

MRS. SHERWOOD'S STORIES FOR SUNDAY, IL•
LUSTRAT/Na THE CATECHISM, are again issued
in a neat and substantial volume, as revised by
Rev. Arthur C. Ooze, Bishop of Western New
York. It is a beautiful filial tribute, when in
the preface, the Bishop says : " I. do this in part,
as a tribute to a saintly mother, who now sleeps
in Jesus, and in gratitude for the lessons impart
ed to my early childhood, by her sweet voice, as
she read these stories to me in the nursery, and
tenderly illustrated them by her comments. Such
were her discrimination and good taste, and such
was her faith unfeigned, that I consider her prac
tical approval of this work a sufficient proof of
its adaptation to the holy uses of maternal piety."

AMERICAN TRACT SOCIETY, NEW YORK.
RE.v. JOHN G. HALL's Compilation of LORD
BACON'S THOUGHTS ON SCRIPTURE, abounds in
forcible apotbegnis, drawn from the various wri
tings of the great philosopher, and associated with
the passages upon which they bear. The " Par
adoxes" having, , since the first edition, been
traced to another author, (Rev. Herbert Palmer,
of the Westminster Assembly), the quotations
from that work are noted in the preface. A
life and defence of Lord Bacon precedes the
" Thoughts," making a book of much value and
printed in large and readable type. 12mo. pp.
408,
Lorry LANE, or "by their fruits shall ye
know them," by 31. rs. M. E. BERRY, contrasts
the home influences ,of a Christian family iu the
country with those of an infidel and wealthy
family in the city. The perils into which amia
ble, but wealt•minded; Lotty and her country
neighbors were brought l} y, intercourse with the
city people, are well and effectively described.
The arguments between the children sound stilted
and artificial, and the incidents described are often
trivial, but the book, as a whole, will prove at
tractive and wholesome. It is printed and illus
trated with great beauty.
FLOSSY LEE, by Faith Wynne, (Skelly) is a
bright every day story of child life, interspersed
with smaller stories from a good Auntie, and with
occasional bits of science put in a familiar style
for children. 18mo. pp. 209. 80 cents.
NORA AT DERNCLEUGH, is an unusually well
constructed juvenile story. The pen of the skill
ful writer is manifest on every page. The reli
gious interest of the story is trifling, and kept in
the remote back ground. The real interest is in
the well-described and complete reversing of the
position of the parties, by the course of Provi
dence,—and that is not put in any clear re
ligious light. AM. S. S. UNION. 18mo. pp. 200.

JOHN S. C. ABBOTT continues his series of
attractive histories, giving us now, through HAR
PER Sr. BROS., the HISTORY OF JOSEPH BONA
PARTE. Joseph was the oldest and Napoleon,
the second son of the family. The brothers loved
each other devotedly, and were sympathizers
and sharers through life of each other's fortunes.
The scenes of this history, of course, are laid
mainly' in that of the younger and more illustri
ous brother. Yet ,they have their own peculiar,
touching, and often domestic interest, more mark
ed from the martial reverberations breaking in
upon them from every side. ' The author main
tains his warm partizanship for Napoleon through
out. 18mo. pp. 391, illustrated. $1.20.
TRUST AND TRY, is the first of a number of
stories in the volume so named. It - describes
the persevering efforts of a poor, but praying
child, to procure a living. HENRY HOYT.
MR. SPURGEON'S fresh literary vein seems
inexhaustible, as his labors are indefatigable.
JOHN PLOUGHMAN'S TALK is a collection of
quaint, racy, downright essays in the nature of
advice to plain people on homely subjects, taken
from the pages of his excellent periodical :'"The
Sword and Trowel," and published in a volume
by SHELDON & CO. It is a good collection of
Tracts for the Times, and abounds in homely say
ings, which promise to stick like proverbs. It
is especially adapted to raise the daily life of the
masses. 16mo. pp. 177.
LEE & SHEPARD
THE BOY FARMER OF ELM ISLANDi is the
fourth of the series begun with " Lion Ben,"
and continues the life-like descriptions of the am-
phibious life of the ingenious and thrifty people
who inhabit the island. It has a hearty, out
door, sea-air flavor about it that is irresistible.
Rev. ELIJAH KELLOG is the author. 18mo.
pp. 300. •
THE'YOUNG DETECTIVE, one of ROSA ABBOTT'S
books, shows much of the high story-telling
ability of the preceding volumes, and is decidedly
" sensational.," but is scarcely equal in freshness
and vivacity to the writer's - earlier efforts, which
were truly remarkable for thosequalities. 18mo.
pp. 256. Illustrated.
THE SUNSET LAND, OR THE GREAT PACIFIC
SLOPE, by Rev. John Todd, D.D., is a familiar
and highly entertaining account of the Pittsfield
divine's visit to the Pacific Coast, last summer.
His prayer upon the junctiOn of the two Pacific
Roads, at Promontory Point, is well remembered,
and his description of the wonderful scene is
thrilling and sublime, from its very simplicity.
His account of the Mormons will be read with
peculiar interest. 18rno. pp. 322.
LIVING THOUGHTS is a compilation of choice
utterances by the nobleat Christian thinkers in
prose and verse, coming down to such recent favor
ites as George MacDonald, Liddon, Guthrie, Ar
thur Helps, Robertson,• Dr. S. H. Tyng, Norman
Macleod and others, and including many older
ones. The topics are . : Christian Experience,
the Christian graces, Christian Effort, and the
Source of Strength. Printed luxuriously on
thick, tinted paper, and handsomely bound with
gilt top, it makes a very attractive volume,
within and without l6mo. sq. pp. 246.
LITERARY ITEMS.
—Charles Augustine Saint -Beuve, the distin
guished critic and a Senator of France, is dead.
He was born at Boulogne-sur-Mer, Feb. 23, 1803.
He went to Paris in 1822, and there soon became
prominent in literary circles as onu of the cham
pions of the " Romantic" school, of which Victor
Hugo is now the Most brilliant exemplar. He
became best known by his so-called psychological
critiques, in which he analyzed the prominent
works of French literature, using the leading
events in the life of their authors as the founda
tion of a psychological delineation of their intel;
leetual character. He has often appeared as a
poet under a nom de plume, and his lyrics rare
distinguished by a strain• of _rather melancholy
sentiment.
—A Belgian weekly paper, the Flandern, is.
sues the following peculiar notice : " Cloister
scandals belong so essentially to a true reflex of
the times, that a journal cannot pass them by.
But it would be impossible for a weekly paper to
communicate all these stories; besides, a/respecta
ble journal must set itself against violating the
moral feelings of its readers, especially the female
and younger portion. Taking these considerations
into account, the editor has determined to publish
weekly an especial supplement for men,' which
will also contain much in the language of Rome
itself,' and this for a very small circle of readers."
—Two interesting contributions to the history
of printing and the book trade in Germany have
lately appeared. " The Printer Family Fros
chauer, in Zurich (1521-4595)," with the list of
their published works, by E. Camille Rudolphi
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1869.
(Zurich), and " The Coburger Book-dealer Fami
ly of Nuremberg," a description of the German
book trade at the period of transition from the
scholastic service to the Reformation (1470-
1540) ; and dating from 1525 are communicated,
among others, letters of Martin Luther, in which
he mentions the labors of the Coburgers; by
Oscar Hase, Leipsic.
--Mr. George Bancroft, our Minister to Ber
lin, has been lately at Konigsberg, the native
town of Kant, engaged in researches bearing up
on the life and the works of that greatest of all
German metaphysicians.
—G. P. Putnam & Son announce a volume of
sermons by Father Hyacinthe. The Rev. L. W.
Bacon translates it, and Dr. E. A. Washburn
will write the biographical, introduction. The
volume includes the Speech before the League of
Peace, which kindled the war Letween the
preacher and his order.
—Father Hyacinthe is going to publish a pa
per which will be both relicrions and political in
character, called Le Chretien.
--Rossetti's edition of Shelly's works promises
to be very complete. It contains part of an un
published " Tragedy of Charles the First," and
other unknown piece's: The " AdonaiB " will be
corrected from the. original edition, and the life
contains much new matter.
—Afzelius, the Swedish historian, though in
his 85th year, is actively at work upon the com
pletion of his great work on Swedish history,
based upon popular songs and legends, and is
also preparing new editions of some of his for-
Mei works:
—The Galaxy has an article asserting that a
secret-,society, whose object is the establishment
of an empire in this country, exists. The mem
bers are active, though their organ, the imperial
ist, sixteen nnmbers of which were issued, is sus
pended. •
—Cedar Rapids, lowa, has a newspaper printed
in the Bohemian language, called the Pokrok,
which is, tieing interpreted, Progress.
—Tennyson's works have been supplied with
a " concordance,". filling a volume of 477 pages.
It contains upwards of 15,000 references.
—Some ineffable donkey who signs himself
" A MeMber of Congress" (not Mr. Samuel
Cox) has written to The London Vines, that as
a literary woman Mrs. Beecher Stowe is simply
nobody, and that, morally considered, she is,
merely (not to put too fine a point upon it) a
liar !— Tribune:
—M. Guizot is engaged in completing a work
which will bear a title analogous to that of Sir
Walter Scott's popular " Tales of my Grand
father," entitled " Histoire de France, racontee
mes petites enfanis."
—Frederick Hudson offered to take charge of
the N: Y.' Times for $15,000 if he could have
entire control of the editorial columns. He
could have the .$15,000, but not the control, so
he retired to his farm.
—The first Catholic almanac published in the
United'Staies was issued in New York in 1817,
by Mr. Field, the father of the young lady
writer and lecturer,, Miss Kate Field. It was
a small 24m0.,_ of sixty-eight pages, and its title
was The Catholic Laity's Directory to the
Church Service with Alma/Wed:Tor the year 1817.
—A daily German newspaper is about to be
established in London, as the organ of the
Democratic party,' to be called The German
Post. •
—Mrs. Mundt (Louisa lluhlbach) was lately
asked to write an American historical novel on
the subject of Aaron Burr. She replied that
she had never before heard of the gentleman.
—The 'Paris correspondent of the London
Times is Mr. O'Meagher, who formerly served in
the Spanish army, resided a long time in Spain,
married 'a Spanish woman, and is consequently
supposed to be familiar with Spanish affairs. !Re
has a handsome establishment in Paris, and
draws an annual salary of £1,500.
—Rochefort says that at least half a dozen
French fencing-masters have tried to pick quar
rels with hinlin Brussels since he arrived in that
city, in order to provoke him to challenge them.
These fencing masters, he adds, he has good
reason to believe, were sent by the French
Government especially for that purpose to Brus
sels. Rochefort claims that his Lanterne still
has upward of 80,000 subscribers. '
—There is now preparing for publication in
England a work by Garibaldi on " Rome in the
Nineteenth Century." It is understood to be
a popular book, and one which will throw some
light upon many matters which have 'hitherto
been but partly seen or quite concealed.
SCIENTIFIC ITEMS.
—The British Association the advancement
of science held its annual meeting this year at
the interesting old town of Exeter. Among the
communications bearing upon various branches
of science we note one by Dr. Wilson on the
" Moral Imbecility of Habitual Criminals exem
plified by Cranial Measurements!' The theory
set forth by Dr. W. was that habitual criminals
do not possess such an amount of intellect a s t o
enable them to discriminate between right and
wrong, and that the majority of them are devoid
of moral sense. The habitual criminal was of a
low type of intellectual development, and some
of tliem were so backward as to be unable to sur
mount the rudimentary difficulties of education.
In 464 separate measurements, Dr. Wilson
found cranial deficiendy, especially in the anterior
lobes of the cerebral , portions of.the brain. He
suggested that punishment should be more re
formatory than, punitive. Be.,also suggeited
that, means should be taken to test a criminal at
ter confinement for a certain time, and if he
failed to pass the ordeal to keep him in 'confine
,
went for the sake of society. A very animated
discussion ensued, in which considerable differ
ence of opinion was expressed as to whether an
habitual criminal was morally responsible or, not
for his acts. [As the plea of insanity is getting
a little rusty, we may expect that of "habitual"
to take its place, in the good time coming.]
—The important question of, Human Longevity
was discussed in a paper, by. Sir Duncan Gibb,
entitled "An Obstacle to 'European Longevity
beyond seventy years!' He had previouslY:sh'own
that, in an examination of 5,000 healthy pei!drs
of all ages and both sexes, the epiglottis, was
pendent and not vertical in 11 per cent. The
epiglottis is a thin plate of cartilage (fibre car
tilage), shaped like a leaf, and placed behind the
tongue in front of the superior opening of the up
per part of the windpipe (larynx). Its function
is to close the windpipe during deglutition. On
analyzing his statistics, and taking his general
experience, he has found that in no instance has
the cartilage been pendent over 70 years; and he
has examined a considerable number from 70 to
95 years, in all of whom it was vertical, even in
one case of a person aged 102. He therefore
concluded that pendency of the epiglottis is an
obstacle to longevity beyond 70, and death en
sues from some cause or other, at or before that
age. He mentioned several aged statesmen and
others whose epiglottis was vertical, like Palmer
ston, Lyndhurst, Brougham and Campbell.
—" A cause of diminished longevity among the
Jews" furnished the subject of another paper by
the same gentleman. This he showed to be thi
persistent use of olive oil for culinary purposes,
giying to them an appearance which he charac
terized as the sang uineo . oleaginous expression, typi
cally exemplified in the furniture auction rooms
of London. 'Usually with this was a pendent
epiglottis. Longevity was rare amongst such
persons; they become constitutionally old, seldom
or never actually reach old age, and die from
some of the fatal congestive diseases.
The Waist of the Period.—Under this head
the editor of the London Lancet comments in
severe, but just terms on the prevalent custom of
tightlacing which tyrannical Fashion •again im
poses upon her deluded victims. Beaten back
for a time, probably more by fashion than by the
spread of knowledge, he has not been killed, but
has only recoiled; apparently for a better spring,
for his victims are as numerous and pitiable as
ever. The folly is one which was formerly to be
found mainly in the drawing-room, but now it
also fills our streets. It is lamentable to, observe
at every lairn, a woman, young or old, who moves
forwardl in a stooping 'position, unable even to
hold herself upright in consequence of the con
straint upon the muscles of the back. If the
evils of tight-lacing were confined to the distorted
appearance which it never fails to produce, we
might regret, indeed, to see the female form di
vine so defaced, but it would scarcely be in our
provin'ce to comment upon it. But as medical
' practitioners we see its effects every day in the
train of nervous and dyspeptic symptoms by
which it is constantly indicated, and in the still
more 'grave internal mischief of permanent' char
acter which is often caused by it. Until some
little physiological knowledge is made a. part of
female education, and is considered an " accom
plishment," we suppose itis of little use to pro
test against the cruel injury to health which wo
men thus inflict upon themselves. The matter
is one which is " worse than crime—it is folly,"
for beauty is destroyed by the process which is
intended to, increase it.
—Rev. Ch. C. Adams, of Manhattanville, N.
Y., is now finishing a ten years' labor, by pre
paring for the press a volume on." The Recent
ness of Creation." Its principal features are to
set forth the discovery of a new Law of Motion
in the Sea, which has formed the marine geo
graphical strata from the Azhic rocks upwards ;
and to endeavor to prove that there have been
but four geographical epochs, and these within
the last six thousand years, viz.: The Creative
Epoch, the Productive Epoch, the Destructive
Epoch, the Regenerate Epoch. It regards the
Bible, as much a scientific as a theological revela
tion from God ; and treats both as parts of one
grand whole, neither being capable of being un
derstood without the other, and both being in
perfect harmony. The new theory is claimed to
be based on ascertained facts and observations of
the most advanced scientific men in Europe and
America.
—The ex-President of the Royal Astronomi
cal Society of England is of the opinion that

—The hundred missionaries. in China, with
their wives and children, would not fill an ordi

culties of the language, separation , from home
and friends, are of small account, compared with
the opportunities of wealth and the social -posi
tion it brings.—Christian Secretary.

—Rev. Thos. Downie, of the -Scotch U. P.
Mission in Jamaica, on occasion of the ordina

C ° Brief as has been my stay in Jamaica, I already
share in the regret that is felt by older brethren
in the field, that so little has been done to raise
up from among the churches of the island young
men of education, piety, and a self sacrificing
spirit, who will he qualified to discharge with
efficiency the duties of the pastoral office."
—A sort of free-masonry prevails among the
natives on the Guinea coast, which is thus de
scribed by a missionary: "It is a society of men,
and membership is obtained by purchase. The
members are males ; females, as in the institu-
Lion of freemasonry, being ineligible. This Ibi
bio lodge of freemasons goes by the euphonious
name of Ekpo Ndy'ohs. The members rub their
persons with chalk, specially making white circles
round their eyes, greatly enhancing native ugli.
ness, some of them being also veiled. They
carry cutlasses; and any person who is not a
member, if met by the way, is cut and wounded."
—A report on the labors of the missionaries
of the Russian Church, in the government of
Irkutsk, Siberia, shows that in two districts there
are still upwards of 210,000 idolaters, and that
in the nomad tribe of the Buviats, which con
sists of 105,000 persons, there are only 13,000
Christians. In 1868 there were nine mission
aries in this district, six of whom were paid by
