THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1867. LITERATURE. lllfiVIlCW Of NEW UOOICH. IHK PATJOHTF.R OF ATT EMrTtKS"! Jly LoulHR Sluhllmcli. New York: I). Appleton A Vn. Philadelphia Agent: O. W. THclier, No. m C'liesnut utreot. This last of the numerous productions from the pen of tLiu most proliflo authoress is not equal to its predecessors, although it partakes of the general characteristics of all its fellows. It is a historical novel, the plot of which is laid in Russia, and is based in the most infinitesi mal degree on what actually transpired. But the connection between fact and fiction in this, as in all Miss Muhlbach's novels, ia so ex tremely remote, that it really teaches nothing. It is rather more overdrawn than any other of licr productions, and deals entirely too much in sentiment for anything hut a school-girl's fancy. Of course, it is composed of well-delineated characters, and the transla tion is ex cellent. The style, however, palls upon tie reader when more than three or four tales are read; and a3 this is about the eighth within a year, we think we are justified in confess ing a surfeit. Tjir Montakos. A Novel. J. B. Llpplncott fc Co., Philadelphia. A very pleasant little narrative of the war, and one in which that exhausted thome is treated in a style which renders it really new, because of the refreshing disregard of all pro bability. It is not properly a war novel; it is a llove tale, very well told. The fate of the South is drawn in as an incident, and the writer is eminently loyal. The characters are all of that dignified race of the upper-ten which are never found anywhere in life. They are all strikingly handsome, and all, to our mind, act in a ridiculous manner, which no sane set of characters possibly would do. But it is very happily told. It is a sort of cross-love, like we find in "Quits" and "At Odds;" and the dt'notiement, although anything but probable, is not absolutely silly. Its merit is as much as any novel of its class which Las been recently issued. Enoikf.ep.9' and Mechanics' Pocket Book. By Charles IJ. llaswell. New York: Harper A Brothers. Philadelphia Agents: J. B. Lip. plucott & Co. We have seldom seen a work more tho roughly useful and more thoroughly welcome than the little one before us. Bound in a Shape to be carried in the pocket without in convenience, it really contains an amount of needful information which is positively ama zing. It is an evidence of the immense supply of data which can be accumulated by the in dustrious men who understand the task. All the information so often needed by engineers and mechanics, and also by men of leisure, is contained in this work. It is a perfect epitome of valuable knowledge, and is compiled with Buoh care, and so properly indexed, that we can have no trouble in turning to exactly what we want to find. It contains nearly seven hundred pages, yet is bound in a com pass easily carried, and printed with singular clearness. It is the twenty-first edition of the work. Manual of Physical Exkrciuks. 1!y Wll llum Wood. Harper A lirolliers. Philadel phia AcentB: J. B. Llpplncoit & Co. Mr. Wood has given us a valuable manual of ' directions on the subject of physical exercise, and some sensible advice in regard to the rules essential to the preservation of health. His work covers thoroughly the ground it intends to, and is full of well-executed illustrations of the various attitudes proper in gymnastics. It gives useful directions and wholesome ad vice. At the 'end are appended seventeen rules of health, which we can cordially commend to the attention of every one. His work not only contains the requisite information on the sub ject of gymnastio exercises, but also a care fully prepared digest of the rules of all our athletic sports. It is reliable as a daily moni tor, and is written by one evidently well acquainted with the subjects of which he treats. It will become a standard work for the preser yation of health. - . Thk Kingdoms of Liom and Darkness. By Lioreuzo D. Blackson. NlohohK Philadelphia The work before us is the product of years of preparation of a colored man, formerly a slave. It is curious in many respects, but does not exactly please us. We deprecate all of those works which attempt to pierce the mysteries of the latter days, and amplify what is told to us in, the Eastern metaphor of the Bible. The prosent volume is an extended account of the last war between "King Alpha and Abaddon," and is told somewhat in the style of Bunyan. It is not a sacrilegious work intentionally, yet, with all his laudable desire, we fear the author has rather tended to bring the great mysteries treated of down to the level of the earth. It is well written, and is a proof of what can be accomplished by self education. To it are appended some poems, simple in metre, and by no means inferior. It is cheaply published, and may do good, al though we have our doubts. Harper k Brothers, through Lippinoott, send us a copy of Miss M. E. Braddon's "Birds of Prey." It is like all of that authoress' productions, and over its stilted style and entangled plot we do not intend to waste time or ppace. J. B. Lippincott k Co. send us another of the beautiful series of Bulwer's novels "The Last Days of Pompeii." It is bound in rich green cloth, exquisitely printed, and forms a most admirable edition of that stan dard novelist. Harper k Brothers give to the public a work by a Mrs. (iiloart, entitled "The Curate's Pisclple." It is a pleasant novel, well writ ten, although rather tame In some parts ' The story drags too much, which is Us chief fault, although "it will repay reading, M u5 characters are all well delineated, and the plot ia clear. Apparently the rail Mull Gazelle keeps a literary deteotive, whose knowledge of worth less novels is most extensive. Within a little while he has run down four or five literary thieves and venders of stolen goods, but never any one of them with more skill or with greater zest than he has shown in his recent capture and conviction of Miss M. E. Braddon. He seems to have worked up the case with enthusiasm, and taken a real delight in his success. First he showed very conclusively that a novel lately published in Belgravia, under the title of "Circe,"' was stolen bodily from Octave Feuillet, whose drama of DallJa had been almost literally translated by the "Mr. Babington White" who, Bclgraria said, wrote "Circe." This exposure was made on the 10th of September. He pursues the subject on the 17th, setting a trap into which, on the 20th, Miss Braddon unsuspectingly falls that is to say, after the theft is exposed on the 10th, the detective writes a letter pur porting to come from Mis3 Braddon, in which that lady is made to offer to return to her subscribers the money paid for those numbers of Belgravia in which "Circe" had appeared. The letter is amusingly like what a person of Miss Braddon's sort might write when re solved on doing a magnanimous thing regard less of attendant expenses. It called out a note really written by her, and- which reads as follows: "Miss Bratldon presents her compllmnnts to the editor of the l'all Hall Gazette, and hogs to Inform him that the letter purporting to be written by her, which appears lu hU paper of the 17ih Instant, la a forgery." Which was all the forger wanted, for in an editorial comment on the lady's note she gets a stroke from a rod which evidently had been two or three days in pickle for her: "The forged letter was one In which Miss Braddon was made to express an honorable regret that the readers of Helgravla should have been Imposed upon by a novel stolen from the French." Miss Braddon, it is to be observed, says no thing in this note of Mr. "Babington White," whom Mr. "Chesterton Smith" (our detective again) guesses in another letter to the editor to be a mythical character non-existent, like Mrs. Gamp's Mrs. Harris. It is to be con eluded, as is said by the Gazelle correspon dent, ".T. T.," whom we suppose to be our detective in still another disguise, that Mr. Babington White is no other than Miss M. E. Braddon, who, as "T. T." points out, has already stolen M. Feydeau's "Madame Bovary" and passed it off as her own under the name of "The Doctor's Wife." Unfortunately, Miss Braddon's audience is such that she is hardly injured by a conviction for larceny. But her fate may warn others. If it does not, our novelists will get to be as bad as our dra matists have long been, who no longer think it in the least disgraceful to steal French plays. And we hope, doubtingly, that this exposure may possibly damage the fortunes of Miss Brad don's Belgravia. It is as much the fashion now adays for a celebrated or notorious novelist to set up a magazine as for a successful pugilist to set up a sporting house, where he gathers around him a profitable cirole of the friends whom his arduous professional labors have pleased. So we have magazines which are mainly filled with trash from unknown writers, because they contain as the taking part of their contents some chapters of a novel by some favorite story-teller, or, as we feel in clined to say, because they contain some trash by too well-known authors. It is a comfort to think that against this rage for magazine reading there must soon be a reaction. We have really almost a plague of magazines. But there are people who will not read books. ft. Y.
