6 THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 18C9. lithp-atuuxj. REVIEW OF NEW BOO KS. From Turner Brothers & Co. we have received 'The Mill in the Floss," the second Toinme of the "Honschold ' edition of George Kliot's work, in coarse of publication by Fields, Osgood & Co. If "Adam Ijetlo made the fame of George Eliot, this novel confirmed it and placed the writer in the front rank of English novelists. It is a story of peculiar nd fascinating interest, and the delineation f the characters is dono with a uixstor hand. It is written in that clear, eloquent, and graphic style for which George Eliot claims precedence ove any living novolist; and while, it is rich in tho humor, the eccen tricity, and tho fascinating oommonplivcenoss of English home life, tho impending catas trophe is induced with tho regularity and certainty of a Greek tragedy. Powerful as some of the scenes of "Adam Bedo" are, there is nothing in them that exceeds in profound pathos tho concluding chaptors of this work. In prosonting a neat, elegant, Mid cheap complete edition of George Eliot's works, the publishers are doing a genuine service to the reading public, and this at tractive series of five volumes will be a prized addition to many a library. D. Ashmead sends us "Elements of the Greek Language." This is an abridgment of the large Greek Grammar of Professor Iladley, of Yale College a work that has a well-deserved reputation with Greek scholars. This abridgment Las been made in compliance with a general demand from teachers for an elementary grammar that will bo better suitod to the wants of beginners than tho larger work. Tho main plan of Professor Iladley lias been adhered to, with only such modifi cations as were absolutely necessary, and a clear, concise, and practical analysis of tho principles of tLe Greek lnngungo is given, which will give the student a solid basis upon which to pursue further investigations. From the same house wo have received "New York Ulastmled," a well-written de scription of New York and its suburbs, illus trated with numerous engravings of all the principal buildings and points of interest in and about the city. A plan of New York is also given and a strainer's guide, which visi tors will find useful. Turner Brothers A Co. and Claxton, Kern sen A" Haffellinger send us "Henry Esmond" and "Lovel tho Widower,'' both of which are given in one volume for the low price of fifty cents. From Claxton, Iicinsen & Ilafifollinger we have also received "Countess Gisela," by E. Marlitt, translated by A. Nahmer. This is a new version of the fascinating German tale with which tho public is already familiar through tho translation of Mrs. Wister. From T. Ellwood ell we have received Nos. 41) and ".() of "Zoll's Popular Encyclo pedia," which is brought down to the title "Burton on Trent." Howard Challen, No. 1 :5(s Chosnut street, sends ns a convenient "Wash Book," de signed for the use of ladies and ladies' board ing schools. This is so arranged that it will be found an easy nutter to keep a correct account with the laundress, anil it cannot fail to be useful in private families as well as schools. Tlie Jour nil of the Franklin Institute for September contains, besides a variety of other interesting matter, Professor Henry Morton's report upon the transactions of tho Philadelphia Photographio Expedition to ob serve the solar eclipse of August 7. The re port gives a concise and lucid explanation of all the operations of the expedition, and it is illustrated with a fine photograph of the eclipse and a number of interesting wood cuts. In tho next number will be published the reports of those in charge of various de partments. MARK TWAIN1TIES. Mr. Greeley is going to lecture on tho Byron scandal. We have no authority for making this statement, but then it makes an interest ing item of news, and tho inexorable business of a newspaper is to collect interesting news. Another Samson gone. Tho pioneer manu facturer of fine tooth combs in this country has just died in Connecticut. What were the achievements of the jaw-bone of an ass com pared with the performances of this man's humble little instrument? The last soldier of tho Revolution, who goes on with his dying constantly, and will for years to come, is thus reduced to formula: "The old man, survivor of the Revolution, more than one hundred years old, who always rose with tho sun, never drank anything in his life stronger than brandy and sugar; who has eut two cords of firewood daily every day except Sundays for tho last sixty-uine years; who invariably walked five miles before breakfast, who is the father of thirty-eight children, the grandfather of two hundred grandchildren, and the great grandfather of thirteen great grandchildren; and who would shortly have been the great great grandfather of one great great grandchild, is dead. Aud now we hope nobody will disturb the good old man any more." The wonderful two-headed girl is still on exhibition in New England. She sings duets by herself. ' She has a groat advantage over the rest of her sex, for she never stops talking to eat, and when hhe is not eating she keeps both tongues going at once. She has a lover, and this lover iH in a quandary, because at one and the same moment she acocpted him with one mouth and rejected him with the other. He does not know which to believe. He wishes to sue for breach of promise, but this is a hopeless experiment, because only one-nan of the crirl has been guilty of the breach. This tdrl has two heads, tour arms, and four . lees, but onlv one body, and hhe (or they) is (or are) seventeen years old. Now, is Kne ner sistertf-m buo iwiu r vr, uovmg bnt one bodv ("and consequently but one heart), is tshe strictly but . one person ? If the above-named young man marries her will he be guilty of bigamy ? This double girl has only one name, and passes for one girl; but when she talks back and forth at herself with her two mouths is Bhe soliloquizing? Does she expect to have one vote or two ? Has she the same opinions as herself on all subjects or does she differ sometimes? Would she feel insulted if she would spit in her own face ? Just at this point we feel couipoiled to drop , this Investigation, for it is Jw tangled, fgj yj?t - - I'onl In rrunoln Krltaln. nnd ('rent The Pruatifm Staat-t-Anzrifnv hr.s the fol lowing interesting exhibit of the production of coal in Prussia and Great Britain: "According to the reports of the inspectors of mines in Great Britain, there were, in 1867, 3105 coal mines and 3;W,lKi miners, producing about lor,078,000 tons (2,1.1',18'V 000 centners 20 'JJ centners oqual One ton), while in 1808 the production had decreased to about 104,r0O,(XO tons (2,121, 000,000 cent ners), and the number of workmen, however, had risen to JIM!. 820, and the number of mines to 32!1. Prussia produced 420,r71,ll centners of coal in 1H'J7, with 42 working mines and 102,773 miners, and in 1WIH the same number of mines, with K)t;,.il8 workmen, delivered 4.t,48ii,i!iJO centners of coal. The coal production of Great Britain in therefore,exceeded that of Prussia five-fold; in istix, however, the excess in favor of England was only 4 i fold. Fourteen years previously, in 1S."4, tho coal pro luctiou of Great Britain, which was about (I7,.,il,000 tons (1,312,!18, 300 centners), exceeded that of Prussia, which amounted to 1;5',22.",0!m; centners, nearly ten-fold. Taking into account now the acquisition of territory by Prussia in this period, deducting the production of the lands annexed in amounting to 7,881,. 840 centners, from the total Prussian produc tion as above given, there remain 4 1,i!04, 820 centners as the production of the old Prussian provinces, or about tho 4-7th part of the amount produced by Great Britain. "While tho coal production of Great Britain lias in creased within this period of fourteen years forty millions of tuns (812,000,000 of cent ners), or 02 per cent., the production of tho older Prussian pro , inces has been increased 310,370,721 centners, or 2278 per cent. "Tho avcrago pioductionof coal to each mine in Great Britain was, in 18(18, about (!(!4,000 centners, or (1110 centners to each miner; in 1807 the proportion was (('.", 000 centners to each mine, and 0308 centners to each miner. In Prussia the average produc tion of each mine, in 1808, was 1,0(17,000 centners, or 4273 centners to each miner; and in 1807, 0s7,ti0 c"ntncrs to each mine, and 1(102 centners to u:.A miner. According to this tho average production of coal by the British miner is lsi.t centners, or 13 percent, higher than that of .the Prussian minor; the reason for this may bo looked for in the more favorable positions of English mines, their extent imd the use (' improved machinery in them. Besides, the pay of the English miner is much higher tii m that of his Prussian brother. "Tho number of .accidents, in 1807, in fie mines of Great Brit. tin resulting in the Io-h of life was 0O7, by which 1100 persons, or 3'.")7 per thousand miners, were killed. In tho mines of Prussia, in tho same year, there were 200 accidents -musing fatal results, by which 203 men, r - '8l per thousand miners, lost their lives. According to this there is in Great Britain ono tv -so of accidental death to every 280 miners employed aud 1,702,400 centners of coal pro. iuced: and in Prussia one death falls among every 3"2 workmen and 1,4 10,157 centners of coal. A comparison of the killed in relation to the total number of miners employed i-t, therefore, in favor of Prussia; while in regard to tho amount of coid produced, tho ft ivautago is on tho side of Great Britain. In the district of Clausthal one death occurs to every l,830,8."i2 centners of coal produced; iu tho district of Breslauto every 1,720,178 centners; and iu the districts of Dortmund and Bonn 1,4 17,803 and 1,131, 2.3 centners respectively. The number of miners killed in the year 1807 in tho two countries is apportioned to the various kinds of accidents as follows: KiUrd. I'nrjlaiul. Prutnit.

Jefferson county, Tennessee, experienced an earthquake shock on Sunday evening, 5th inst. The shock lasted uc.irly a niiuute, and was ac companied by a loud rumbling noise. Alajor-Gencral Sehofield, commanding the Department of Missouri, arrived in St. Louis on Monday, his object being to make arrangements for transferrin"; his headquarters from Leaven worth, Kani-as, to that city. Tho removal will take place about tho 1st of October. Sonic of the mot graceful aud appreciative tributes to the late Secretary Rawlins have been rendered by tbo t-otithern press.

The Montreal Gazette takes exception to a remark, apropos of the discontent cherished by the Nova Scotlans in regard to the Dominion, that a change vitally affcctlnE their Interests was carried Into ctlect without affording an opportu nity for an expression of opinion by the people or their representatives. Tho Oazrtte replies that the representatives were consulted. Bnt this is a niero evasion. The "representatives" who did approve of the bargain had not been chosen with any view to action upon it, and at the first general election thereafter a majority of them were sent Into private life for assuming authority to speak when no such authority had been given. Neither directly nor indirectly have the people of Nova Scotia sanctioned the present scheme of confederation. loli(ial.
