t THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDA1, JANUARY 8,1870 LITEHATTJHII. REVIEW OF NEW BOOKS. From J. B. Lippinoott A. Co. we liave received MMargnerite, Baronoss LeichenBteia, Mid other roems," by Mrs. Elia II. Barker, the anthor of "Zelica," ."Cbilde Claude," etc. The longest P?om this book la a German legend, old in graoe fuland fluent verse that will give a new in terest to an old subject. We had thought that poets and novel writers were done with the uniuppy young man who soils the rover ion of his soul to the Devil for oertain tem porary considerations, but he keops turning up at intervals with a regularity that shows how strong a hold his story Las upon the Imagination of those who make hla acquaint ance. The author of the poem before us states that she has endeavored to divest the legend of some hitherto degrading associations and to infuse into it a pure morality and " steadfast faith. With the moral purport of the story we have very little to do, for if it is A genuine work of art it will point its own moral, but we are pleased to be able to com mend "Marguerite" as a poem much above the average. There are faults of versification and some inelegancies of language, but these are as motes in the sunbeam in comparison with the real merits of the work. There are about a dozen shorter pieces appended to the principal poem, which indicate ability, al though none of them are equal to "Mar guerite." From T. B. Peterson & Brothers we have ' received "Why Did He Marry ELer ?" a new ' and interesting novel by Miss Eliza A. Dupuy, and "The Last Athenian," translated from the Swedish of Victor Eydberg by W. W. Thomas, Jr. The last named work is a romance of more than usual merit, the popularity of which is shown by the faot of its having ' reached a second edition. From D. Ashmead we have received Ap pleton's Journal for February 5, and also the tenth monthly port, containing the January numbers. The Little Corporal for February is full of interesting reading matter for young peo ple. Published by Alfred L. Shewell & Co., Chicago, 111. Our Schoolday Visitor for February, published by Danghaday & Becher, No. 424 Walnut street, presents an interesting series of stories, sketches, and poems suited to the tastes of boys and girls. From the Central News Company, No. 05 Chesnut street, we have received the Christmas number of The tit. James Magazine and the latest numbers of Punch and Fun. The Host Family in England. . We are often asked which is the best family in England? It is not an easy question to . answer. What tests can we apply to deter mine it? Let us try these three length of descent, ancient renown, and historical im portance. Length of descent throws out of the competition many distinguished names, . Buch as those of Howard, Kussell, and Cecil. Ancient renown throws out such families as Seymour, Talbot, and even Stanley, none of which were above the middle ranks five hun dred years ago. But all the conditions seem to be fulfilled by four families those of Hastings, Fielding, Courtney, and Nevil. The first has been more or less noble , ever since the Conquest. The second is said, but on doubtful grounds, to have been of the imperial Ilapaburg race, and to have settled in England in the reign of Henry the Third. The Courtneys claim to be descended from Pharamond, the founder of the French monarchy, whose date is placed by historians at the middle of the fifth century; and from Otho, some of whose family were Emperors of . Constantinople, and previously Counts of Edessa and Kings of Jerusalem; they are also ' of very ancient nobility in England, and of ; considerable historical and political import ance in our o irn day. Nevertheless, we think, all things considered, the best family in Eng land is that of the Nevils. The ancestors of the Nevils were Earls of Northumberland when we first hear of theai in Saxon times, nearly a thousand years ago. From the Earl of Cospatrio, a contemporary of the Conqueror, derived the Nevils of Baby. They reoeived the name and estates of Nevil with the heiress of a Norman family; they eould boast of sufficient importance during the wars of the Roses to furnish one Arch bishop of York, one duke (the Duke of Bed ford, nephew of the King-maker), one Mar quis (the Marquis of Montaoute, brother of the King-maker), Earls of Westmoreland, and Salisbury, and Warwick, the Lords Fauoonbrig, Latimer, and Abergavenny, from which latter the only remaining branoh . is descended. No other Eng- lish family fulfils the conditions laid down above so satisfactorily as this one. The Courtneys run them very close, but the chief fame of the Courtneys is of foreign growth, whilst the Nevils are Anglo Saxon, and have been here ever since they became a family. Their pedigree is as well authenticated as any pedigree of suh length can be, and in ancient honor and historical importance they yield to none. They were ' in the highest rank of nobles before the Con. quest, and have continued noble ever since; ' and it may be said of one of them what oan be said, perhaps, of no other English subject, that he could by his single voice control the . succession of the crown. If it be asked whioh are the best families in Scotland and Ireland, we answer, those of Hamilton and Fitzgerald. Instead of Hamil ton, we should perhaps say Douglas, as the j Dukedom of Hamilton may be said to ob ecure the ancient name and titles of that family. The Douglases became Hamiltons by female descent in 1098, when they rose to the head of the Scots Peerage Roll. In Ireland, the best family is also the . highest, the Norman stock of Fitzgerald, , Dukes of Leinster, taking easily the first place. But genealogists, unless they happen to be themselves Soots or Irish, are apt to look with suspicion upon most Scottish or Irish pedigrees. Many of the oldest lines in ' North Britain would not be admitted as legiti mate in England, owing to the operation of the peculiar marriage law; and the more ancient-looking Irish pedigrees are similarly invalidated vj the very anomalous condition in which matrimony remained as late as the reign of . Queen Elizabeth Mr. Froude's account of the household of Sham O'Neill is an example. It is, therefore, diffloult to traoe any house in either of the sister kingdoms beyond a couple of centuries at farthest, without what in the eyes of an English gene alogiil would proves final break. CanseU's Mugatine, Foreign Item. .An English paper Bays: Of the various plans wlilch have been devised for facilitation the voyage between this country and France, none can be compared for ingenuity, ygatneaa of de sign, and general convenience, with that of a trench engineer, M. Eugene Burel, woo t present lu Eujjland for the ' , lint the detail.? . r"rP of explain is we - "V ftfltoTrablo scheme there ' re 1b formed by the Builder, to bo no bridge above or tnnnel beneath the soa; the channel is merely to be filled up. Nothing can le more dimple, and in addition to othor advan tages connected with M. Buret's proposal, one new county wDl le added to England and one department to FrahiTf: We are glad to hoar that a passage is to be left, a mile wide, between us and our neighbors, which is to be traversed by ferry boats every five minutes. Of course, when wo get to know and love eacu Other thoroughly, this little channel can also be hl!"4 up, but In the first Instance it is quite as well that we should keep up some small semblance of our Insular position. It is not only on account of the rates and taxes which we shall get out of the new county, It is not only because of the abolition of sea sickness that every one must delight in the proppect held out by M. Buret's scheme, but It has one merit which alone entitles It to our heartiest support. The channel must of course, be tilled up with rubbish, and the only question Is, will it contain the superfluity of rubbish we shall so gladly cat into it? Wo are doubtful on this . point. Directly M. Burel has arranged the matter with the Governments of the two countries, what a rush will be made to the soa with all our humble contributions! There is not a householder in Great Britain who Is not encum bered with some kind of domestic lumber which he will gladly place at M. Buret's disposal if that gentleman will provide cartage. Old clothes, old boots, old receipts, old furniture, three volume novels, foreign bonds, shares in branch lines of railway and bubble companies, will all go to help the glorious work; and then there is all the national lumber. Here will begin our real difficulty. What shall we cast in first Shall it be the Home Office or the Board of Trade, or the minutes of "My lords," or the Blue Books, or the Did Acts of Parliament, or our public buildings, or our statues, or our semi detached villas, or our rookeries, or will M. Burel accept live rubbish of a corporate nature, such as '"My lords" themselves, or the guar dians and vestries ? We would even part with them to "cement the union" between the two nations. The lievue du Monde Catholique publishes some interesting details concerning the French Monts-de-piete, or pawnbrokers. It is already well known that the pawning business Is very different in France from what It Is in England, and much has been said of the profit which the Government derives from keeping to itself the monopoly of this ingenious trade. Being en tirely under Government control, it is easy to ascertain the amount of loans effected through out France. At the central office the books re cording the eutire business of the country are kept. It would appear that the pawning busi ness is subject to the greatest variations, and that these variations depend to a very great extent on the state of foreign affairs. But con trary to all expectations, the loans are less fre quent in periods of revolution. Are the people frightened lest the Revolutionists should plunder the pawnshops ? Certain it is that in 1793, in 1814, in 1830, and in 1848 the Monts-de-piete throughout France did but little business, and the total figure of the loans made by them in these years was below that of years of prosperity and peace. We are further informed that a society called La Grafignade lessens in a great measure the profits of the Government. It con sibts of men who regularly frequent the sales rooms where unredeemed articles are put up to auction. They bid for everything, to the exclu sion of strangers, keeping the prices low for themselves, but bidding to any sum so as to discourage interlopers. Each member of the society buys indiscriminately whatever he can get, and then after the auction exchanges It with his confederates for whatever object ho may particularly want. Apart from these financial results, the article from which we bor row them makes mention of a few romantic in cidents connected with this business of the pawnshop. In 1849 the Mont-de-piete of Paris offered for sale a silver watch pledged in 1817 for the sum of eight francs. The pledge had been renewed each year by the borrower, who could never scrape enough money together to redeem it, and so he had paid twenty-six francs in interest. For two years, however, he had not reappeared. The administrators made some in quiry after him. He was dead. A correspondent of the Cologne Gazelle, writing from Shanghai, states that the respect of the Chinese for the powor of European States is by no means increased since they have seen his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh. This, however, is not the fault of the Prince, who is rather to be pitied than blamed. It had been rumored before his arrival that the son of the Queen of England was ten feet high, and had three eyes. Great and not unnatural disappoint ment was, therefore, experienced when It was discovered that be possessed no other advan tages of height and vision than those enjoyed by ordinary mortals. The British residents have been much humiliated by this unavoidable de struction of an illusion which had taken a power ful hold on the minds of the natives, but their position has to some extent been alleviated by the impartial conduct of the Chinese magistrates with reference to their new church. Rumors had been circulated that evil spirits were at work in this new church, and great excitement per vaded the community. In order to quell this excitement and promote peace, one of the Chi nese magistrates took the decisive measure of causing the credulous libellers of the church to be soundly flogged through the sacred edifice. This measure has been attended with the hap piest results, and there have been no more rumors of a sinister nature. It appears that the practice of torturing Erisoners In order to make them confess, which as been abolished by most civilized nations, (till exists in Swlzerland. M. Borel, member of the Assembly of Lucerne, has proposed that in formation should be asked, from the Federal Council as to the torturing of a prisoner in the Canton of Zug. Tlie man in question was accused ot theft, and acknowledged to tho criminal court that he had appropriated the missing articles, but he refused to admit that he had stolen them, and insisted that he had acci dentally found them. The court then ordered further inquiries to be made. "From the 2tkh of October to the 10th of November the prisoner waB put on a bread and water diet; but he made no confession. Thumbscrews were then applied to the prisoner, bat still he made no confession. Six blows were next given him with a stiek; he writhed and groaned, but de clared he could say nothing more than what he had said already, upon which six more blows were administered. 'If you kill me, Mr. Jude, I cannot say anything ewe.' The prisoner was then brought before the court, and once more earnestly questioned, but he adhered to his for mer statement. Upon this the prisoner was again placed on the ordinary prison diet." A French gunboat has just carried a monu ment to an obscure river the Nunez on the west coast of Africa. It is there to be erected to the memory and glorification of Rene Callie, a brave though almost forgotten traveller, who in the beginning of this oentury crossed the African continent from the river Nunez to Tan giers via Tlmbuctoo. He uchleved this extra ordinary feat disguised as an Arab, and at the cost of 40, which was all that he possessed in the world. Untortuuatcly, he was a mau with out education, and in his character as an Arab did not dare to make inquiries. His book, therefore, was very dull and barren; the Quar terly Jifoiew accused him of imposture, and the authenticity of his travels has never been fully established in the English mind. However, Dr. Barth certified the correctness of his description of Tlmbuctoo, with some reservations, and Mr.' win wood Keade, who in nis late journey to the Western Niger passed over part of Callie's ground, is convinced that bis travels are trust worthy and genuine.
