Thaekeray died while writing it. These miscel
lanies are like all his productions, mildly cynical,
Pickens paints the blackest of black, or the
whitest of white. Thaokeray paints all brown.

The same publishers have published in paper
covers a work which does not rank among
Thackeray's permanent productions, but which
did good service as a satire upon the taste for
heroic scoundrelistn introduced by Disraeli and
Buiwer. It is CATHERINE: A STORY BY IKEY
;:lor,omoNs, ESQ It is founded on a mur
ler narrated in the " l'ewgate Calendar," and is
.t well sustained an 4 effective satire. The pub-
fishers, have omitted the actual story of the
murder and execution, as no longer necessary.
The sons of great men are proverbially insig
nificant, probably because their mothers were so.
he daughters of men of genius often inherit
le fine powers of their fathers. This is finely
lustrated by the writings of 'Miss Anna Isabella
lackeray, of which Fields, Osgood & Co.,
are published a household edition. They are
very much pleasanter reading than anything
from the pen of her father, while they do not
evince the possession of as great intellectual
power. No reader of "A Village on the Cliff,"
Five Old Friends" and "The Story of • Eliza
beth," will fail to elass them among the most
'elightful and charming of.stories. They evince
- .
an extensive knowledge of the best side of French
life, rarely found in English authors. Two vol
umes. Pp. 277, 282. Price $2. For sale as
Dr. Hartwig's POLAR WORLD is quite an it
lustrated encyclopedia of what modern discovery
has told us of the lands that lie around either
Pole. The author, While not an original explor
er, has digested with German thoroughness and
patience the worki'of ancient and modern trav
ellers; he giv,es in , brief space the results, of
their explorations; sometimes he tells the story
of their labori: He has dOne his work well, and
has given us a.whole library of books in his
jingle volume, a volume which will have for the
young the interest of a fairytale, and for the,
old the value of a soieutifietreatise.• The to

nes, meteoric phenomena, of our colder regions
are all fully depicted. The American transla
tor has added a fine series of one hundred and
sixty-three authentic illustrations, selected from
live works of authoritative value, and has ap
pended two chapters—one giving the latest in
formation in regard to Alaska, another condens
ing Captain Hall's recent experiences among the
Innuits. The publishers—Harper& Bros.—have
ably sustained both gentlemen in the production
of a very handsome volume. Pp.. 486, Bvo. For

Sohn S. 0. Abbott, the Hagiologist of St.
Napoleon, is a 'very entertaining writer, if not
trustworthy on all themes. His last book- isTHE
ROMANCE OF SPANISH HISTORY, and indeed is
as full a " History of Spain' as most ,readers
will care to peruse.: The important points of her
chronicles, from the days when Iberian, Cartha
ginian and Roman'straggled for her possession,
down through the . periods of Gothic, Mohamme

and the last chapter tells the story of the still
incomplete Revolution. Twenty-three good il

Messrs. Robert Carter and Bros. reissue PAUL
THE PREACHER, a practical exposition of his
discourses and speeches as recorded in the Acts
of the Apostles. The author, Dr. John Eadie,
of the U. P. Church of Scotland, is widely
known as the compiler of the best and most
popular edition of " Cruden's Concordance," and
the Professor of Biblical Literature in the The
ological Seminary of his Church. This volume
shows him as a vigorous and thoughtful preacher,
with a good degree of insight into the greater
preacher upon whose foundation he builds. He
has avoided all minute criticism and technical
exegesis, in this honest and hearty attempt to
explain and apply, in a popular_ and practical
shape, the : spoken words of the apostle. Pp.
462. 24m0.
From the same house we have TILE SHEPHERD
OF ISRAEL, a series of sermons in illustration of
the Inner 'Life, by Rev. Duncan. MacGregor of
Dundee, Scotland. They are of a very plain and
popular east. Tile seritencesare short and clear;
the division s goo 4; the. style varied with quota
tious in prose and
.poetry. That they are not
long may be judged from the fact that we have
sixteen sermons in 339 pages of small 16mo.
Size, in large clear print.' The fifteenth is de
v9ted to British and Arneripin Revivals, men
tioning Mr. Hammond and other t ',f wise winners
of souls." The last is a tribute to..the memory
of that peerless knight of the mission field, Rev
W. C. Burns.
The fourth volume_ of " Chase and Stuart's
Classical Series" contains THE WORKS OF HO
RACE, edited with explanatory notes by Prof.
Thomas Chase of Haverford College. The text
has been edited with care from the best editions
and MSS. ; the prefatory matter (biography
and prosody) is terse, yet ample; and the criti
cal notes are for the most part very satisfactory.
We would rather have had the rendering of
difftyult phrases and sentences given in English
of a more lyric terseness than that which Prof.
Chase has employed. Pp. 429, 16mo. Price
$1.50. Published by Eldredge Bro., 16-19 S.
Vlth St., who announce that the books of this
series have been adopted in more than a thou
sand schools.
Dr. George H. Napheys of this city, a stand
ard writer on medical topics, has written a judi•
cious and reliable book. on THE PHYSICAL LIFE
OF WOMAN. We say reliable, because it has
received the approval of Surgeon-General ; 11,am
mond, Dr. Harvey L. Boyd, of Baltimore, Dr.
John Gri,scona, of New York,. and Dr. S. W.
Butler, of The Medical and Surgical Reporter.
That the subject has been handled judiciously
may be inferred from the approval extended by
several of our city pa - stors, educators, liteiary
men, and journals, as also Henry,Ward.,Beeeher,
Horace Bushnell, Mark Hopkins and others.
Bushnell says : "It is written, with much deli
cacy and a careful respect, at all points, to the
great interests of morality." Beecher , writes :
" It is to be hoped, now that these delicate topics
have been so modestly and plainly treated, that
yours will supersede, the scores of ill-considered
and often mischievous': treatises." We, think the
book deserves all :the commendation it has re
ceived, We, rejoice to find Dr. Napheys, writing
in a Christian spirit on important points of medical
jurisprudence, such as divorce and fceticide.

Maclean, 719 Sansom St., who has had' to issue a
second edition within two weeks after the appear
ance of the first. •
Rev. Senior Harvard, of this city, has written
and published a pamphlet of 146 pages, entitled
THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM; which he de
fines as "a kingdom not of this world ; not, in
this world; but to come in the Heavenly Country
of the Resurrection from the Dead, and of the,
Restitution of All Things." .By a method of
interpretation which seems to us thoroughly Jew
ish and carnal, the author arrives at the conclu
sion that the kingdom. of heaven can have no
existence until after the destruction of our earth
by physical fire at the. Second Advent of Christ.
Qn.page 70 he impugns the teachings of the
Westminster Confession on this subject. Price

JUVENILES,
From Skelly & Co. we have "'FARMER BURT'S
SEED, a, True Story," showing the wide influence
lbr good, both in this and the other world's in
terests, of a pure and kindly life. The school
master is an original character. 18mo. pp. 216.
SOC.-ANNIE AND TILLY (Mary A. Dennison's
Saturday Afternoon Series —Martidn) is a 'suc
cession of brief, vivacious, we might say gushing
stories,,strung upon a slight thread of charita
ble purpose to a poor cripple; all touched with a
trifle of impossible sentiment, or rapture which
will be attractive to most readers. lBmo. pp.
180. 6004-FRANK FIELDING, or Debts and
Difficulties, by Agnes Veitch, is a well-planned
and ably-written story, detailing the bitter, ex
periences of a young man who had the doubtful
virtue of generosity without justice. The early
beginnings of his sad habit are carefully exposed,
and the happy change, with the agreeable sur
prise at the close and the part given to the truth
and Spirit of God in the results, make it a very
complete and effective hoook for the older juvenile
readers. 18mo. pp. 142. Martien. 60 cents.
BARBARA ST. JOHN, by P. B. Chamberlain
(Phila.: J. C. Garrigues & Co.) illustrates in a
story of , varied interest and much merit, the
error of choosing anything but the service of the
Master as a life-work. Ruble's character is
strongly marked and 'well sustained. The fierce
glow of her ambition and its . cure make a pro
found and healthful impression. The humbler
services of the Home Missionary are set in an
honorable light. The whole effect of the book
upon the older class of readers will be good
Handsomely printed and bound. 16mo. 'pp. 383.
JANET'S Two HOMES (Mrs. J. Hamilton Thom
as, Phila.) contrasts Janet's life in a garret and,
as a match-seller, with that in a c6mfortable
Christian ho'rlie. Lacking in force and action.
18nio. pp. 197.--JOTTINOS FROM THE DIARY
OF THE. SUN (Hoyt) is limited to the common
place sights of earth, told with no remarkable de
gree of ioint or power.
Tom HARDING is one of the " Sunny Hour"
Series, by Nellie Eyster. They are stories of
Pennsylvania scenes and Pennsylvania boys.
Tom Harding, a Harrisburg boy, goes South in
a United States steamer.; and the admirable nar
rative and descriptive powers of the writer are
employed on the novel sights her hero meets.
The firmness of his Christian principles is well
illustrated. A good book, with great variety of
entertaining matter, handsomely got up by Duf
field Ashmead. 16mo. pp. 368.

for more, from the delighted readers of the other
four. We do not wonder at this unwillingness
to give up a character so fresh, so quaint, so
original. A true child, but one of Christ's little
ones; sot firm in principle, so simple, so truthful
as to be the teacher, unintentionally, of older
ones. The writer, Joanna H. Matthews, is do
ing a work of unspeakable value for the younger
class of readers. Another volume, " Bessie's
Travels," will close the series. 16mo. pp. 357.

PERIODICALS AND REVIEWS.
THE LONDON QUARTERLY for October Opens
with a learned but highly interesting disquisi
tion on Islam, from the pen of the author of
" The, Talmud," which drew so much attention a
few months ago. Next a fair article on Isaac
Barrow. " Higher and Lower Animals" shows
the difficulty of drawing sharp distinctions and
of making either Structure or Function exclu.
sively the ground of classification. ‘" The Byron
Mystery" takes up warmly the defense of the
poet. While it seems completely to destroy the
value of Mrs. Stowe's testimony, it speaks se
riously of " the fair fame" of the poet—as if .the
admitted adultery and fornication of which be,
was guilty, go for nothing when it is found that
incest is not ,to be added to the catalogue. The
reviewer also speaks of tak,ing Don Juan " out of',
quarantine" by this defence. Prove Byron to be
an angel of light, if you can ; true modesty will
always bar the door of quarantine upon that
scandalous, prodnetion. The Water Supply
of London" is an elaborate defence, both as re
spects quantity and quality, of the Thames as a
source upon Which the London of the present
and the future may depend. Is it written in the
interests of the existing water companies, who
would be ruined by a charge? " Lord Lytton's
Horace " furnishes occasion for a fresh, readable,
scholarly notice of the Latin poet, and a eulo
gium upon the English version. We are in
formed that more than a score of versions of the
Odes entire, have appeared in. England in the
last five years. " ; The Reconstruction of the.
Irish Church " is written under a fear that the
process will be too radical and result in dividing
the Irish , utterly from the English Episcopal
( 7 1 hunt', ".Sacerdotal Celibacy" is a review of
our townsman, H. C. Lea's standard work on the
subject, which is in the main commended by the
reviewer as it deserves. The article is timely, in
view of the absurd movement among the extreme
Ritualists for the celibacy of the clergy of the
Church, of England. "The Past and Future
of the Conservative Policy" is a surrender, for
the present, of all aspirations for office, on the
part of the, Tories. New York : Leonard Scott
Publication Co.; Phila.: For sale by W. B. Zie
ber. $4 a year.
The Westminster Review for October opens with
an elaborate article on " The Quakers," defining
their peculiar views and expressing the hope
that the present Rationalistic movement among
them in Lancashire will succeed. " The Works
of Arthur Hugh Clough," a dyspeptic genius
who died in 1859, are reviewed with eulogy, and
the growth of theological dyspepsia since his
death exulted in. "The Water Supply of Lon
don" shows that we of Philadelphia are not
alone in certain troubles.,.," Sunday Liberty" is
what` might be expected. - The Afghan Tribes
on our Trans-Indus Frontier" is worth the Czar's
perusal, before he begins his march from Bok
hara to Hindostan. " The Natural History of
Morals" is a reply to, the Introduction to Leckey's
last book, and is an attempted refutation of the
intuitive theory of. Plato, Coleridge, Leckey,
etc. "The Albert Life Insurance Company,"
shows that underhand dealing in Insurance
Companies is not Confined to New Jersey. " Com
pulsory education" is a reply to an . Anglican
clergyman, who, like most of his order, orposes
the measure. The last long article is the second
of • a series on the " Social Evil," and thli . propo
sal to bring it under State inspection and regula
tion in England. The writer opposes this, and
the present article' is mainly quotations from a
"Report to the Privy Council" against the mea
sure, ,on the ground of the enormous outlays
needed, " which would, in the eyes of very large
numbers of .persons, be to the last degree odious
and immoral," as obliging them " to contribute
to the cost of giving an artificial security to their
neighbor's looseness of life." The short reviews
are as miscellaneous and spicy as usual.•
LITERARY ITEMS.
The London Post of. Nov. 2, is informed that
Dr. Lushington's continued silence on the Byron
mystery is in.no respect attributable to 'his age
or state of health, his intellect being remarkably
clear and vigorous for his age ;, nor does he
shun allusions to the topic, although he declines
to state whether Lady Byron did or did not make
the specific charge in question.
—Two literary worker's, of - great usefulness
and small fame, died last month in London. O n e
wa =John Bruce, formerly editor of The Gentle
..
m'an's Magazine, and editor Of some of the most
valuable publications of the Camden Society.
The other was,Alexander Ramsay, the principal
assistant of Mr. Charles Knight in his English
Cyclopmdia" and other works, and in his youth
sub-editor of the famous old Penny Magazine.
—One of the curiosities of the month is a
poem by Father Hyacinthe, printed in French
in Putnam's Magazine for' December, with an
English rhymed , translation, by Lucy Fountain.
It is entitled " Recollections of Childhood," and
was written whoa Father Hyacinthe was sixteen
years old.
—Richard Hildreth, the careful historian of
the United States, died very poor and broken by
literary drudgery, in Florence, in 1863, some '56
years old. His wife died soon after, of cholera,
in Naples.. A gentleman from Cleveland, travel
ling in Italy last summer, heard the sad facts
and learned that not even the simplest monu
ment, had been erected to the memory of the
historian. He immediately wrote to Harper and
Brothers, relating the facts, and in reply came a
check for a generous amount to cover all the ex
penses for a fitting tombstone. Hiram Powers,
hearing of the circumstances, volunteered to
supenntend the work, and before, leaving Italy
the Clevelander had the Satisfaction of seeing in
the. beautiful Protestant: cemetery of Florence,
where the.graive of Elizabeth Barrett Browning
is marked by a handsome monument bearing her
name as the only inscription, another monument,
chase and simple, over the grave of Richard
Hildreth, bearing tho brief record of his name
and the date of his death. So says the Cleve
land Herald.

—The American Board has occupied another
station in Bulgaria, Samokove, a town of 12,000
inhabitants. Mr. Locke writes, Aug. 3d : The
mass of the people (Bulgartans) are very much
stirred by our coming.. Anathemas have been
pronounced upon us; every one is forbidden to
have anything to do with us, in any way. But
the - Turks and Jews are very friendly indeed.
The Turkish Governor has been to see us twice;
each time shaking hands with all . of us. He has
interested himself in getting a house for us,
offering to rent us a large one adjoining his own.
To day his wife came, and spent over an hour
taking, a lesson on her sewing-machine. They
had' got it out of order, and begged us to see if
we could right it for them. One of the greatest
curses of the place is the use of wine and whiskey.
Two or three weeks since, the . head men of the
Bulgarians enacted a law, that on Sabbath morn
big, two able bodied men, with stout staves,
should visit all the wine-shops and send home all
of the priests whom they might find there • a
reform proceeding from the people to those who
should be leaders in such matters; and on one
Sabbath these two men were seen going from
shop to shop.
—The district in Central Turkey, north of
Mt Taurus; in the track of Paul's journeys, has
recently been = explored by Mr. Montgomery, of
the American Board's Mission at Marash, south
of the mountain. He speaks of a large and
almost countless number of Greek villages in the
region explored. What to hope respecting the
future of these Greek Christians, since they are
not nationally Greeks, but only members of the
Greek Church, he does' not know. The fact that
one of the Protestants here is from that commu
nion,- and that two other men avow themselves
convinced Ofthe truth, but are kept back through
fear of peisecutien, may be an indication that
their case is not utterly hopeless. •
—Mr. Jessup; of Beirut,Teports some very re
markable facts, indicative of outward progress as
the result, of, the efforts of. Missionaries in. Syria.
They are, such as a steam flour-mill at Acre, a
steam saw-mill at - the mouth of the Orontes, a
lively trade in kerosene and lamps, with a native
improvement to adapt the lamps to use of the
poor; all in the hands of Protestants.
—The Greeks in a certain district in Syria,
having quarrelled among themselves, cast about
for an agent - to whom they could intrust the care
of their funds. They copld not trust the priest,
nor the sheik, nor any one of the old men, and at
length, by unanimous Consent, they requested the
Rev. Mr. Ford i the American missionary, to take
charge of the revenues the Greek church! A
few years .since, the, Governor of Lebanon, and
the British Consul-General requested an Ameri
can missionary to 'take the charge of the Druze
College in Lebanon, which is supported by the
ecclesiastical revenues of the Druze nation.
—Rev. Samuel Jessup sends good' news from
Hums, where there has been more or less difficulty,
The brethren have elected an evangelistic com-s
mittee ,to send two persons to some neighboring
village every Sunday. They have reorganized
their missionary society, 'and all have become
paying Members, giving their contributions
weeldy. They have appointed their deacon mis
sionary to Harnath, and pay half his salary and
expenses. They have asked for a 'native pastor.
—A young Armenian convert of Mosul was
invited by the Protestants there to become their
poster, but he replied that he did not know
enough, and must have an education. So he left
his wife and children with his father, sold his
house and what little property he had in order to
raise funds, came to Beirut and entered the
college there.
—The American Board received in September
$27,604 in donations and $4,517 in legacies. Not
a little of this was designed for the previous
year's account. The receipts of the Presbyterian
Board for the same period, were $10,662.
—Of course the leacti n againtt, Romish despo
tism in Spain, has brought into view the
atheistic tendenCies that had previously lain dor
mant. One of the deputies, in a . discussion of
the religious question, after denouncing Romalism
proceeded to expound • what he called his new
ideal which denies the existence of .a God and a
life to come. A missionary, Mr. Vifle,:a, is
" sorry to say that this new idea is coming into
fashion now among the young republicans. They
think it very suitable to deny God and every
thing. A Spaniard laughed at me the other day,
when speaking to him about the salvation of his
soul, and he said in a nic,cking way, Do you
really believe there is a God and a life to come ?
I don't. We know better. We now have liberty,
,and we can 'see the truth. Religion was very
good once but it is old'. The Bible and such
things, are of no use to us now; we are too far,
advanced. We have the new 'idea now.' I
answered, Friend; you do not yet know what
the Bible is; and as for your new idea, why, it
is, as old as history. If you will look at the 14th
Psalin, which was written by David about 300,0
years ago; you will see your new idea mentioned:
' The fool hath said in his heart, There is no
God.' He was rather annoyed to find the new
idea was not so new after all."
—The Mehtre Caste, in Northern India, be
longing to the Sikhs, have become widely inter
ested in Christlanity, through the labors of the
late Rev. J. H. Orbison, until recently connected
with the. Lodiana mission, now deceased. They
had been in, the habit of meeting, together once .a
week, to discuss the relative claims of Hindooism
and Christianity upon them, and had called upon
Mr. O. to meet with and aid them in their search
for truth, which 'he did. Several of them, have
asked for baptism and are on probation. An old
blind man of this caste, however, astonished the
missionary with the depth of his knowlean and
experience, and' was,received. He was ° driven
out of doors by his family. It was a dark,
stormy ; rainy night, and the 'homeless old man
dressed in a shirt or gown reaching, scarcely to
his knees,, spent it inthe dirty filthy street., For
two days he begged his bread, and slept in the
verandah of a school house before his condition
was found out by the Christians. He came to the
missionary on the third day, and scemed•really to
be rejoicing in Ids tribulation. He did not come
begging, but professed his belief that Christ
would take care of him. An inquirer took him
into his house, and cared for him for a few days,
and the native church supplied him with food
and clothes. This treatment of the old man
aroused the chief men of the caste, who called
the caste together, and by a resolution compelled
the old man's wife and sons to take care of him.
They have since ceased to trouble him.
—Girdari, a servant in the missionary families of
the Lodiana mission, was formerly a Sikh Guru of
the Mehtre caste, and was so popular that he obtain
ed about six thousand (6000)disciples,who believed
it to be a great privilege, to be permitted to wor
ship the clay upon which their Guru stood. This
man began to question the truth of Sikhism and
Hindooism and to inquire into the truth of
Christianity about eight years ago. For about
two years he has professed to his disciples his
belief in Jesus as the only Saviour from sin, and
that Jesus Christ is the " Nakalunic avatar," i.
e., the immacu'ate manifestation of the Deity in
accordance with one of the most popular of the
pretended' prophecies of Nanak, the great leader
of the Hindu sect, called the Sikh. According
to this prophecy, a time was to come when there
would be an immaculate manifestation of the
Deity. This manifestation is called the " Naka
lank avatar." The person in whom the Deity
would then be revealed would be perfectly
holy and sinless, he would be rejected by the
great majority of men. and would meet with
a violent death. The religion which he should
establish...would, however, notwithstanding the
opposition of his enemies, be extended over
the whole world, would abolish caste and all
ol'the peculiarly exclusive customs of the Hindus,
etc. Girdari believes that Jesus fulfills all the
conditions of this prophecy, except, that Jesus
lived and died twelve or thirteen centuries before
Nanak was born. He has convinced a consider
able number of his disciples of the reasonableness
of his own opinions, and has interested many in
regard to the claims of Jesus to be the expected
" Nakalunk avatar."
