Mr. James I?. Spaldinp, we are pleased to announce, is nearly recovered from his recent prostration, nnd will sunn be able to resume, lite rary :abor. Mr. J. G. Suxo cniovs the honor of u place in TJeetou's "Companion Poets," a series of piratical reprints of Amoricnn poets, the name of which appears to have been filched from a similar series, published last year by Mecrrs. Ti'-knor & Fields. The Alhencnim, in a pleasant notice of the Volume, speaks of Mr. Base n"Ab a writer of sparkling and occasionally pun. JHnt vers tie ecoiete, wlio lia (or many year eujoyud wulo popularity in the United .States, and ouclit to meet wit u ami'.ir uccrptauco iu Inlaml J I in louver atnomore laoorious productions iho two baiires in l'opan verse canuut be mention d as satisfactory eflbrin a kind ot poetry in which t lie attumpts liaveWn numcrois and the successes very lew dur ing lt; last hundred years." The critic then proceeds to quote two of Mr. Base's poems, "My Familiar." and "A Reflective Retrospect," the last of which ho thinks an imi tation of a poem of Praed'a: "Mr. Saao's Imitation ot Fraud's 'Scliool and Schoolfellow is the tnoro remarkable, because tie makes no mention of the brilliant f.tonian wlien, With an air if ecrnpulotis honesty, no names tho writers to wlom hn is indebted for thought or Ian puaue.

Bai-hn.n, and other l'aiiiiliarwiiters. Sometimes tho iimlation u obviously meait for tho reador's notice; but iu seve ral places it semis to be unintentional on Hie part of the author." A dauprhtci of Mary Ilowitt is preparing for the press "A Year in Sweden with Fredenka Urenier." Dr. Vcron, 'vliose work, "Le Eoursreols de Paris," wns very popular, is contiutiuii; his jnemolrr, which will treat of the period be tween 1843 andl8G3. Mr. Martin Furojibar Tnpper has written a new play, entitled "Tho Life and Death of Enlcigh," which it to be produced at fluster where, it is not suited. The parapraphists announce a new poem by Mr. Tennyson, the name of which they are not able to give, thouarh tho subject, they tell MB, is claesic. We put no faith in their Rossip. Mr. Thomas Hood is about to edit "Moxon's Standurd Books for Penny Reading." A. K. II. B., tie "Country Tarson" of Fra ztr's 2iarai.hie, has a paper in the February num" her of that periodical entitled "Presbyterian Sermons Irom Aichicpiscopal Churches," and containing an account of Drs. Patk and Robert son, whohe po.-thuinous sermens have attractel a good deal of attention. Mr. MaUhew Arnold ha a paper in the Feb ruary number of the Comhitl, in which ho de fends himself from u charge broupht acainet him by the talurday Review, that he speaks sli? ht- ingly of his countrymen. "My Countrymen" is the title ol bis article. Dr. Darembcrg has lately published a curl ons work "Physic in Homer; or, Arehieoloirieal Essays on the Physicians, Anatomy, Physiology, Surgery, nnd Physic iu tho Homeric Poems." Martin's llittoiy of France. Walls er, Fuller !: Co., of Boston, have pub lished two mere volumes ot Martiu's "History of Franre," making iu all four volumes of the American edition in the translation of Miss Mary L. Booth. Tho period covered by these volumes Is that of the decline of the French monarchy, ending with the revolution of 17SJ. Th? trunsla tion is made from tne fourth Paris edition, una the remaining volumes of the perles will here alter be published iu their retrulur order. Tho history of the Regency, which opens these volumes, includes a full and satisfactory account of Law's system a signal instance of financial inllfttion which euriched the "Scotch Plutus," but bewared a nation. Tu;s chapter o II. Martiu's history liaa a peculiar iutcreu for American readers at this t'rue, and his rellec tions upon the subject of paper money are of such value that we make room for an extended extract; for, although the work is neither new orthe author's conclusion strikingly original, the lestous of history applied to our own time are too Important to ba slightly regarded. M Martin writes of TAPER MONBY. "Paper, which U almost valueless, cannot till the put t of the precious metaU; it can only re uresent them bv voluntary kL'reement. Tlio htale ititmot create value, that is, ni'ike houio- thine out ot iioibmir, any more, than private in viduals; It substantiate existing val'ies; if v atbruptty aud arbitrarily changes the iclution of these values by chanfintr tho nominal. value of the metallic currency, it docs an iniquitous and absurd thinfr, a l-aw himseii clearly cie monstratcs in a memorial of 1715. When the State creates paper money, it creates the siifn of real estate, or other values which the paper represents; it does net create a new value. The idea that tne s;ate creates vaiuo is a lanacy oi the legUts of the Middle Aces: it is by this so phism that they .lushlied the royal comers, Philippe the Fair and his imitators. "Paper being unable to be the equivalent of Stpecie, Its compulsory currency is therefore a violation of economic laws; if this violation may be suluti'.rv iu certain cases, it is like all those measures "of public safety which violate certain law in tke name of higher laws; it is economy yielding to policy; it is obsi'lional currency ; it is the tiKsir,ni( iiiiooed as u sin of Holidarity on all the children ot tne country in Jaiurer. There are heroic remedies, which we renounce as soon ns we return toanormel state, and which are wc nnons of war, tnd cot lns'uments or rciorm. "The coiiipul-ory c urrency of paper would not harri been ueerspa'rv il the project Ot tho blink and the ccuer&l company hud been completely realized. In an association ol. this kind, every member must receive the paper entitled bylbe society. Now. ilie whole nation, thj whole State. bciiin'aM)cintci, the paj.cr would naturally have been current everywhere, inis idea ot a nation working lis a single man fascinates tne imagina tion, but appaLs the reason. Huppose that mdi vidiuil libeity, the principle of ail progress, could pre.-erve its play in sucn nieclianisin, what nanus could ever be strong enouch and wise enough to rcciilate all the movements ot the colo.tal mnchiue? The tirst part of the sytein the State a ranker ap'ials us less tliun tne tysteiu com plete.'' Here, too, is a striking picture of the mania which possessed the people of France at the tinie when Law's scheme was most popular: RESULTS or INFLATION. "Who does not know bv tradition that narrow and ciiiisy Rue tjuiucainpoix, the centre of Block jobbing, "with it.-, thousand ollices, whither, tor fix mouths, rui-hed and thronged all Pans, all trance, and uii e.nropn; w tiere rani;. sexes, tne diilercut orders of state, great lord i and prelates, military rei n, members ol tho bar, oilicials, mer chants and clerks, musters nnd valets, court ludieu, and women of the town, mingled to gether in one long saturnalia ? It was the equality of cupidity, the equality of play. And wnat piny ? unheard-oi lomincs were niado there iu a few days; in a iev hours. I.ucfeeys, enriched by a turn of the hand, pur chased the carnage's behind which they had mounted the da before. ThPre were men wno earned in their pocket-book a sixty or eighty millions,' worth of shares fit the market rate! Two claspcs of persons had the principal part in this wealth, improvised ns it oy a luiry's wand the great lords and the tanners 01 tne revenue. The cupidity of the princes aud higher nobility. the bascuess ol the courtiers before the Scotch Plutus, who showered down stock and b..uk notes troni his hands, were equalled only by the d'splay and prodigality of the parvenus in toxicated bv their fantastic elevation. But the public, wholly carried away by the irresisti ble impulse, scarcely stopped to moralize. Kaon dav witnessed thu arrival at Paris of streams ot holders of rentes und oilicials, whoae ollices iiad been redeemed, hastening to invest their 1 inula m shares; merchants, who came to watoh the tluctuat'on, to profit by it for tneir trade, or to plunge tuto it ou 'neir own account; loreign speculators, iiuitutors, curious spectators, adven turers, find iutriguers. Luxury and the throng increased at onco in an incredible ratio; fabu lous sums were expended almost as soon as gullied; travel wa3 interrupted by the innume rable multitude ol cumact; gold and silver Llittered everywhere on apparel of silk and velvet; the (iclighta ot IjUcuiius and Apicius weie equal'i'd by th e ni' lionains (it was then that the word was created ) of the Rue (Juincam- poix; a frenzied and disorderly but prodigiously jiow criui impulse uad been given to tue commerce and liKinuiucturcs of Puns. The concentration of the population was such from 171! to 1720, that nu historian does not hesitate to estimate it at one million tour hundred thousand soul-i I The impulse of Purif rencted on all Prance; the amount of u: aim lectures increased thrne-tifths; interest Icll to one aa l a quarter per cent." Thrro is something u'.in to this spectacle now visible in our great cities; not so extravagant, cer tainly, but of thosamo penoial character, and uiibing in a great measure from a similar cause. Here is thu ftory ot w tat happened afterwards in Fraucc : THE COLLAI'SE. "Jrlv 13. Law obtr.'.ned autnovitv to establish nt the "bunk, and in all cities where there were branch banks, books of accounts currcut aud tmnsiers to the aggregate capital of six hundred iniliioua. Tins institution, so usetul to com merce, came t'o l ite. The bank win ai t last extremity; it was forced to suspend payment, except oi' the ton-lhine notes. The consterna tion was proiouud. 'the, people, treinuling lent the ten-franc notes should cease to be redeemed in tniu, rushed to thu Lank with Ircnzied an guish. StoeU-jobtuuL' descended into the lowc. t blru'tu ot bccielv. ihe pollers ot tho nuuUeis turned bpccul.uois, bout lit up ho n lesat a dis count, and loaed their way through the crowd by muin strength, to thu ollices of tiio cashiers. 'Ihey louebt; tliov were stillel at the doors; n.aiiy pei.Blietl. Three corpses were cairiud by (he people bill re ihe windows ot the Repent. lh' i :n rii i: e of Lav.' w as kuu to pieces ia tne -rv couitvurd ol tho l'alnit Rovul (July IV). Tne flinres, 'meanwhile, had fallen to live thou sand Irancs in notes, lueu was no io-vjct ei,mi to twcntj-ne hundred francs in specie. Every one strove to iii himself of the iiotesinniiy nmimer possible; nierchaudise sextupled iu pi ice." The political even's of a remarkable penod of Preach history are narrated by M. Martin with sniauhir clearness and force, und with lew cx ceptions the American translator has preserved the fpirit of the author's conclusion; but the charm of then; volumes lies in their vivid pic turei of 4iie intellectual Incolihe time of Vol tu ire. Montesouieu, Diderot, ami Rousseau, ami the influence exer.cd V? tho wn'ingsof men who stirred Europe to a sense of th'o value of leus. Walker, Fuller K Co. are placing Martin's work belore the American readers in im uttrac tlve form und ut a reasonable cost. Their edition is published with a careful regard to the proprl etics of good book-r-iking in every .way.
