lR(!01,?.rTI0K8 of Mrn abd Thinos at Wabh
ixgtom Doriko TUB TlllHI) OP a Crniuht. By
L. A. Oobrigbt. Published by CUitou,
Remsen ft IUflelfloger.
Mr.Gobright has resided in Washington since
1834, and in the capacities of editor, corres
pondent, and Congressional reporter, he has
fceen acquainted intimately with all the public
meB, and has been an eyewitness of the many
events that hare transpired at the capital dar
ing the past thirty-fire years. The period
covered extends from the United States Bank
excitement, under President Jackson's admin
istration, to the present day. Mr. GoWlgltt
has not attempted to write a history of Wash
ington or the Government, but merely to
string together the faots and incidents that
Lave come immediately under his own obser
vation. The book is a collection of gossipy
anecdotes, some of them rather trivial in
character, bat the majority interesting
and amusing. A lively review is given of
men, manners, and morals in Washington
from Andrew Jackson to Andrew Johnson,
and the principal public events whloh have
engaged the attention of the country are nar
rated in a brief but understandable manner;
and the work is an entertaining, if not a very
profound or important, contribution to the
political literature of the day.
China ard the Chikesr. By Rev. John L.
Kevins. Published by Harper & Brothers.
Philadelphia Agents: Claxtou, lieaison &
Haffelfin&er.
The author Af this work resided for ten
years in China as a nfissionary, and during
that time he had ample opportunities to Btudy
the country, and the language", manners,
customs, and religion of the people. While
engaged in the work of Christlanizatii te
learned to respect the Chinese for their inteli u
kcBM. learning, ;?d ??oi nd poUUifcl
virtues. In view of the fact that they have
sow become our next-door neighbors on the
west, and that the facilities for intercommu
nication are rapidly increasing, he is impressed
with the idea that the people of China and
the United States ought to beoome better
acquainted ; and the work under consideration
la an attempt to give a clear, impartial, and
intelligent account of the great nation who
have hitherto been considered by European
and Amj;n9 &a barbarians, who would not
appreciate or understand any law but the law
of force.
Mr. Nevins gives a general view of the Chi
nese Empire, with the topography of the
country, the manner of building cities, the
cultivation of the country, the manner of
living, and the personal habits of the people,
a sketoh of Confucius and Confucianism, the
educational institutions of China, the consti
tution of the Chinese Government, the various
forms ot religious relief, superstitions, lan
guages of China, benevolent institutions, mis
sionary life and work, and the present proB
pects and condition of the Chinese Kmpire.
Mr. Nevins seems disposed to consider his
subject in an Impartial and disinterested
spirit, giving the Chinese credit for their vir
tues without extenuating their vices; and his
work probably presents as lair and just an
estimate of the people of any country as has
yet been made. A great majority of the
foreigners who visit China are the ollioers and
crews of vessels, who plunge into all manner of
excesses as Boon as they land, and who con
sequently are not capable of making any just
or gcneroiiB estimates of the people. Ou
these points Mr, Nevins inkej t'ae following
observations: '

From D, As1ira"fid we have received ' The
Tales of a Grand father," first, second, and
third series, by Sir Walter Scott, published by
Adam & Charles Bl ick, Edinburgh, and W
W. Swayne, New York. Sir Walter Scott In
this work gives a u'; um of Scottish history,
dwelling, as id natural, on the more romantic
incidents, but putiiug the whole in a dear
and understandable manner suited to the
capacity of children. The edition befe ua
includes all tho author's latest alterations aui
improvements, and the 'price, 2-1 cents per
volume, is reninrkaMy cheap, considering the
amount of matter, thu excellence of the paper,
and the legibility of the type. No more fasci
nating story-writer thau Sir Walter Suott ever
lived, and old a3 we;l &i young readers will
find that the "Tales of a Uraadfather" are ai
entertaining as many of the ever-popular
liolitious work3 of the 3ams author.
From the came house we have reoeived
"Moore's Poetical Works." This is a oh sap
Glasgow edttiou, issued in Now York by W.
W. Swayne, aud it gives the whole of Moore's
potms, well printed on good paper, in clear
type, for o.ty oauts.

For many jearn ast there lay unnotioed In
the stables ot Fit' House a maaa of oldladian
marbles, whloh Lai been brought over front
Madras, hardly any one knew either when or
why. They were broken and uncomely; and
if any man had tu wit to push inquiries as
to what they were and whence they came, he
was told they were fragments of an Indian
temple of which t aroely anybody In London
had ever heard the name. If the inquirer
went yet further, he might or might not
have leftist that these broken atones had bees
found, a good many years ago, lying on the
wharf at Mad tan, exposed to the wind and
rain, at.d that after much writing of letters
they had been shipped for liugland, waxre
tbey had been tumbled out outbe jardof Fife
Uonre. To ank how they came to be lying on
the wharf at Madia wat like going bck to
the Delng: yet when curiosity pushed its wsy
back wants these stones were traced to Mr.
Walter Ll.iot, who, when anting as commi
aicner at Onntoor, twenty four years ago, had
employed bis Mure iu grubbing among the
green slopes and niontdi ou the river KU'.ntt,
after the taftbion then being set by Hotta and
Layard on the Tigris. K Lot had met with mn h
tnccess in his labors, having unearthed a city
and recovered an ancient tempi, tue details of
which were of exceeding rich uens aud import
ance. Nay, he had actually forwarded his
wealth of examp'es to Madras, in the hope of
their reaching Loudon, and making his nme
immortal. But alai for human hoped! Elliot
was no writer. He could not tell his story in
a way to arrest the publio eye. Amravati
was not a Biblical city; and, unlike theTigru,
the river Kistna had a foreign sound. The
temple which he had found was called a tope;
the name and office of which were alike uu
fnmilUr to the English mind. The temple
was Buddhlfitic; aud as Uotama Buddua is
not mentioned in the Scriptures, the
stores of which his temple had been
bnilt in Amiavati could not serve to
illustrate the form and site of Solomou's tem
ple iu Jerusalem. Ilenoe they lay on the
wharf at Madra, "exposed to wind and raid
for a dozen years, uutil some one happily
found that there heaps of stone were in the
way, and thought that, as they had cost a bag
of money or cartage, tbey might as well be
Bent to the India Museum iu London. Hence
they were shipped from Madras, and brought
to London, where, on arrival, they had the
fortune to be stored away in the stable3 of
Fife House, with so much Becrecy that not
one soul beyond the clerks and officers of the
Museum had any knowledge of their ex
istence. Yet all these years there lay In these watte
places of our power, among these broken
fragments of stone, as much curious and im
portant history as anything fouud by our ex
plorers on the Tigris and the Euphrates I
When Mr. Cole was laying out plans for our
share in the French Exhibition, he proposed
to Mr. Fergusson, as the chief authority on
Indian architecture, that some casts and
models of old Indian temples should be pre
pared under that gentleman's eye. Mr. Fer
gusson, who fell in with the suggestion, set to
work; meaning at first to confine the display
mainly to photographio studies of Brahmim'cal
and Buddhistic works, backed by four or five
casts from the curious and beautiful marbles
which had long been shown in the old In
dian Museum in Leadenhall street. These
marbles, we need not say, had been greatly
admired; and no one will be surprised
to hear that good judges tj;wq(;
them so fine as to warri aa airllBl ltt f
to India to Bee their fellows. Well, Mr. Fer
gusson went down to Ffo jjouse, for a quiet
Btudy of their coir parative merits, with a
view to casting lljl0se whi0h wotiM best
convey a 0tion 0( the whole. He had
turned '.cem round and rouud, made plans
aud drawinga, and in the end had selected
lOur examples for the caster, when, to bis great
amazement, the clerk mentioned, "jast pro
miscuously," that there were heaps of such
things in the coach-house in the yard 1 Yes,
theie they were shafts, friezes, figures; a
world of artistic fragments; some of rare
beuty, all of singular interest lying in a
shtd, exposed to slush and finow.
Uf course the Indian authorities awoke to a
sudden sense of th-ir treasure the moment
their eyes were drawn to the stable-yard. Dr.
Wat f on and Mr. Griggs, with laudable cele
rity, came to the rescue. The pieces of Btone
were now picked np and set iu order. The
separate slabs were copied. Soon these gen
tlemen begau to find that they had something
more in hand than a mass of stones. The
pieces fitted to each other. It was possible to
build them up; and as tbe pile grew higher,
it took a wondrous aud comely shape. Iu fact,
the old BuddhiBtio Tope, under these skiilul
hands, came back, as it were, to life.
M. ny of oor readers will remember the
specimens of these Indian marbles whioh were
shewn in the French Exhibition, along with
tie rare and costly collection of photographs
ofIuciau buildings. It is doubtful whether
Etglml Bent totkat gathering of the world's
Lest any other series which so strongly en
caged tbe interest of continental scholar.
but this recovery of au auoient Buddhistic
temple is far from being all . that we have
gaiuedfrom Mr. Cole's happy thought. The
reenveiy is that of au original record; aud we
have not only got pc6see3ion of this record,
but of its secret. The tope is a religious edi
fice, and the stones of which it Is built are
covered with figures figures of men, animals,
trees, and reptiles. They are especially
covered with trees and reptiles; that is to
Bay, with figures which appear to be symbols
of trees acd reptiles.
The fact is not quite new, but it has not
heretofore been shown so clearly and com
pletely as in these remains. Buddha was au
idol-breaker. He denounced Images and Bym
bolr; he prohibited his lollowers from repre
eenticg Ood by any visible stupe. His reli
gion was one cf contemplation and abstrac
tion; acd in his saintly eyes a sign or image
of the uncreated and inedible Ood waj a
profanity not to be endured. Yet here, la
very early temples, we find the House of Uod
profaned by types aud images of what Go
tama Buddha himself would certainly have
denounced as devil-worship. In fact, these
slabs in File Koupe cast a Hood of light
npon the dark history of Asiatic reli
gious, which are not only curious a
regards tbe pait, but important iu connection
ith the Inture. Men aie governed through
their religions feeling?; and the nst step
towards a knowledge of these ftcliugs is a
perfect study of their religious rites.
Iu our opinion, Sir Stafford Nortbotn ac-ed
wisely and economically in ordering tlie.e
monuments to be photographed aud published
under the care of s good au antiquary ss Mr.
Vergusst'D-iSihoBe piodnotiou and description
of the, plates leave hardly auythicg to be
dt't-iio '
When it was resolved to Issue oopins of the
Amravati inarbl"S, Mr. Fergusuou wisely sug
gested the addition of some specimens of the
yet more ancient Tone of SauoiiL of which
there bappeued to be a capital aeries of draw
ing?, made by Col. Maly, of the Bengal Army,
iu the India Museum. The Tope of Sinohi
dates from tbe first century of on r era. that of
Amravati from the fourth. This additional
pn posal was accepted by Sir Staliord; aud the
consequence is, that we have au excellent ao
oonnt, with fpecimens, of Undduiutio artbi'eo
tuie in India nearly coeval with the Teuiploof
Herod and with tbe earliest ChristUu edifices
In Byzantium. All these things are good ia
their teveral ways; but the history of archi
tectural art is of less importance than the
history of religious ideas; and it is for the
evidence which they present of tbe early in
termingling of pure Bnddhistio ritual with
the ancient worship of the laud la its two
most antique forms of tree worship and ser
pent worship that these pictures of Sanohl
and Amravati will be most welcome to serious
Btudenti of our human history,
