EDITH,
Only to hear her Tolcn,
When the pure breath that doth its sortud
compose
(Bweet as the fragrance of a fresh fond-rose),
Comes with a gentle cadence in its tone,
And ("ff aks of friendship Bhe is pteaa'd to own:
To hear this is for me
Jjnprexne felicity,
.And I rejoice.
To look into her eyes
(Books that can tell snch charming histories,
Uright orbs where dwell such wond'rous mys
teries I)
And watch th,m melt, and drops of crystal
bleed,
At a ad tory, or at sonce brave deed,
Erait quick Fparks of fire,
Must make true souls aspire
To high emprise t
To see her turn and speak
To some poor cripple beggar in the crowd,
With simple grace, her thoughtful features
foow'd
In humble def'reuce to his wretched state
To mark her precious sympathy elate.
The broken castaway,
Might move lost souls to pray
For one so meek.

A really very pleasant and instructive work
Las been furnished us by Mius Lott. Blessed
with great advantages for gaining a most accu
rate idea of the workings of the system of
Turkish domestic life, she has availed her
fielf of her rare privileges with a great facility
f expression and evident truthfulness in her
narrative. She held the anomalous position
of Governess to Lis Ilighness the Grand Pacha
Ibrahim, son of the Viceroy of Egypt, and
Lenoe had free access into the forbidden myste
ries of the harem. Her work is full of narra
tions of adven'ures and pleasant gossip,
just such aa would natually abound in such a
conclave of ladies, hfhe details what she
Baw with ekill, and gives ns a peculiarly
accurate insight into the scenes which our
profane eyes are never allowed to gaze upon.
lN'ot only doe3 she treat of the secrets of the
liarem, but having necessarily a large experi.
ence as a traveller, she details to us her
Taried observations, and makes us well ac
quainted with the incidents of Eastern life,
Juoth in statu and in transitu. The work is the
test of its kind since the days of Lady Mary
ilontague, and as changes have occurred so
great since then as to alter, to a considerable
extent, the system of Turkish life, this work
Las a free field never heretofore covered. It
is handsomely published by T. B. Peterson &
Brothers, printed in large clear type and on fine
paper, and makes a very valuable volume for
any library.

The three works the titles of which we give
above can be conveniently classed together, as
they all treat of a common subject elocution.
They each advance theories in regard to de
livery and inllections of the voice, which are
plausible on paper, but which in reality can
Le of but small practical advantage to the
student. The most elaborate treatise is that
of Professor Frobisher, who gives us details
and diagrams to explain hi3 meaning. We
tan only say' that if any student anxious to
Lecoine a publio speaker gets the idea that he
must master the fearful diagrams given by the
Trofessor, we fear he will never be heard in
the pulpit or rostrum. It may be that the
Tiews of the Professor are perfectly correct, and
it is probable that he is an excellent teaoher,
Imt the difficulty against which he has to con
tend is one which cannot be overcome. It is a
physical impossibility to represent modulations
of voice by letters. The voioe ia only taught
through imitatiou, and only by the voice can
it be instructed. Hence the work seems to us
a failure, so far as the theoretical pat t is con
cerned. The same remarks apply to Professor
Sanders' introductory treatise. It is not of the
leaat pos.'.ible practicil use. So far as the
readings and contents furnished are concerned,
the merits of the three works are about ejual.
They all give exoolleut compilations, and,
Btrauge to stay, they are nearly all composed
Of the same pieoos. In every one of the works
We find the great bulk of the productions coir -posed
of identically the same pieoos. They are
all patriotic in their choice, and are well cal
culated to supply the sohool-room with what
is needed a reader. AVe rather think Mr.
fc'uett's is tho best of the three.

The aim of this excellent work is to gradu
ally lead the reader through a course of reli
gions preparation. It is Bound in its exposi
tions, well adapted to the wants of an anxious
reader, and altogether a valuable addition to
the ecclesiastical librarius.

A work ethical rather than doctrinal, yet
written with feeling and depth. It Is an argu
mentative rather than a iliiiuotio treatise, and
will doubtless be well received by the religious
world. It is neatly published.
"Amkrican Methodism."
A book of GOO pages with the above caption
ifl upon our table. We liud it to be an abh
delineation of the philosophy, history, spread,
and results of Methodism, from the gifted pen
one of its most able writers, Rev. M. L.
Scudder, 1). D., with an introduction by the
ev. Joseph Cummlngs, P. I)., LL. I).
The work thus presented to tho Christian
Church In general, and to the Methodist
uml7 0 the country ia partisular, is valuable
THE DAIL1 KVENIflG TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY,
and txLniibtive, and should be largely circu.
lated.
It is embellished with several beautifully
executed steel engravings of the Bishops,
living and dead; Rev. Dr. Bangs, Rev. Dr.
1'isk, Rev. Dr. Cartwright, and others. Typo
graphically, the work is perfect. The letters
are large and clear, the paper good, and the
binding superior. ,
S. S. Scranton k Co., Hartford, are the pub
lishers. The book will be Bold only by sub
scription. The agency in this city ia No. 722
Ransom street, Messrs. Tarmelee & Brothers.
We heartily commend "American Method
ism" to all our readers.
The Presbyterian Publication Committee,
with an earnest desire to supply the religious
public with excellent and instructive directory
works, have issued "Parental Training," a
series of lectures, sensible and impressive,
delivered by Rev. William Bacon, on that most
important subject ; while, to supply the de
maud for light reading, they furnish "Weak
ness and Strength," by Mrs. Hubert. Both
of which deserve our warm commendation.
Messrs. A. S. Barne3 k Co. have pub
lished "A Fourteen Weeks' Course of Chemis
try," by Professor J. Dornan Stelle. It ia a
plain work, filled with wood-cuts, and is in
tended to popularize the study of chemistry.
It cannot fail to do good, being so simple in
its statements, and at the same time so com
prehensive as to convey a general idea of the
science. Of course it can treat only of the
elementary part of the subject.
We have received from S. 11. Wells a
copy of Pope's "Essay on Man," which U
neatly illustrated, and well printed. Its value
is not increased by reason of certain note3
added by Mr. Wells.
J. S. Claxton, No. 1214Chesnntstreet, sends
us a pleasant little children's work, called
"Malcolm's Cottage," by Mrs. WTright. It is
a thoroughly good story, and interesting as
well as improving.
J. P. Skelly has published a number of
admirable Sunday School works, for which Lis"
house is now rapidly getting a high repu
tation. Among them we notice the following
admirably told stories: "A Bunch of Grapes"
and "Brothers and Sisters,"
Messrs. Peterson will shortly publish Col.
Forney's interesting European letters, prefaced
with a life-like portrait of the author, which is
the most "speaking" likeness we have almost
ever seen. They also announce the continu
ance of the "People's Edition of Dickens."
J. B. Lippincott k Co. send ua another
volume of their beautiful edition of Bulwer.
The latest of this set is "Rien.i," and is a per
fect specimen of typographical skill.
