    HE D AIL Y EVENINTELEGRAPll- PHILADELPHIA, TUESD A Y, MAY 17, 1870.
LITXJTXATTJXITJ.
REYIEWOE NEW BOOKS.
From Forter & Ooates we have received
"Lothair," by tha Right Honorable B. Dis
raeli. Published by D. Appleton & Co. This
work is the literary sensation of the season in
England, and it will undoubtedly attract muoh
attention on this side of the Atlantio on ac
count of its distinguished author. We make
this announcement of its publication, and
will refer to it at greater length hereafter.
T. B. Feterson A Brothers send us "The
Christmas Guest," a collection of stories by
Sirs. E. D. E. N. Southworth and her sister,
Sirs. Frances Ilenshaw Baden. With one
exception, these tales are the work of Mrs.
. Baden, who appears to have a considerable
proportion of his sister's ability as a writer of
fiction.
From the American Tract Society we
hare received "Dora's Mistako" and "Lucy
"Woodrille's Temptation," a couple of cleverly
written religious stories for young people
that are well adapted for presents or for San-day-school
libraries.
From T. Ell wood Zell, Nos. 17 and 19
South Sixth street, we have received num
bers 21, 22, 23, and 24 of "Zell's Popular
Encyclopedia," which bring the work down
to the title "Frigate Bird." These numbers
contain, in addition to a great variety of
other matter, elaborate and carefully pre
pared papers on "Egypt," "Electricity,"
"English Language and Literature," "Ethics,"
"Fortification," "George Fox," "France,"
"Freemasonry," "French Language and Lite
rature," and "Friends." Under this last title
are three separate papers, which give the
history and peculiar religious views of the
Quakers from different points of view. They
together make an impartial and very, com
plete sketch of this important religious body,
and supply a great amount of valuable infor
mation on a subject of much interest. This
work gives in a condensed shape all the most
important features of the large encyclope
dias, while it is published at a price that
places it within the reach of those who have
not the means to purchase many books.
From the Central News Company, No.
05 Chesnut street, we have received the
latest numbers of London Society, the Corn-
7iiU Magazine, Temple Bar, andlft the Tear
Hound.
The Teclinologist for May has an excel
lent variety of praotical and scientific articles
on engineering, manufacturing, building,
and kindred subjects. ,
King's Musical Leaves is the title of a
new musical and literary monthly, the first
number of which promises well. It consists
of sixteen large pages, devoted to literature,
musio and romance, and at the low price of
one dollar per annum it certainly offers a great
deal for a little money. Published by B. P.
King, Philadelphia.
From Chicago we have received the first
number of the' Art Review. Published by
E. H. Trafton. This publication is intended
for the popularization of art, and it is ap
parently in the hands of live men, who are de
termined to make it a success in all respects.
The Stow Pavement.
The following correspondence in reference to
the Stow pavement will be read with Interest
by such of our citizens as are interested in the
beauty of our streets:
Offici or thb Citizens' Association fob
thi Improvement of Roads and Streets,
Philadelphia, May 7, 1870. Dear Sir: A por
tion of the Committee on Construction of the
association witnessed the experiment made by
you, at their request, on Thursday, April 21,
when you removed and replaced a part of "The
8iow foundationpavement' laid by your company
in October last in front of the Custom House, on
Chesnut street.
I carefully examined the spot twelve days
after the experiment, and cannot see that the
repaved poi lion is in the least displaced, with
reference to the rest of the pavetnept, under the
heavy traffic to which it is subjected.
The operation of relaying was certainly very
successful. The blocks came up in good condi
tion, showing no signs of irregular wear, and
the wedges which had been driven between them
were not broken or blunted.
In relaying there appeared to be no difficulty
In bringing the gravel bed to a proper surface,
or in replacing the blocks firmly In their beds,
at the proper level.
The experiment showed conclusively that
' there is no difficulty in taking up your pave
ment for tbe purpose of introducing gas or
water, or of refilling or surfacing up any depres
sion which may occur from settlement of the
bed: that the blocks may be replaced as firmly
as they are at first fixed; and that the gravel
under those blocks which were removed showed
that the wedges had consolidated it laterally
under the blocks, as you claim that it does.
I will also say that the whole pavement is in
very good condition, showing no signs of une
qual settling or displacement.
Yours, reepectfullyt F airman Rogers,
Chairman of Committee on Construction.
