G THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1870. LITERATURE. a k v 1 1: w o f x i: v no o k s. From J. B. Lippincott & Co. we have received 'TaRsnges from the English Note books of Nathaniel Hawthorne." Two vol umes. Published by Fields, Osgood it Co. These extracts from Hawthorne's journal are given, in part at least, as a substitute for a regular biogrnphy, and to most of the ad mirers of his genius they will probably be more satisfactory. Tho extracts from his American note-book were rcceived -.vith delight, not only for their intrinsic interest, but for tho curious light they throw upon the deve lopment of his genius and his artistic method.-). Hawthorne was one of tho very few men of strongly-marked individuality of genius that American literature has produced, and there are probably few fragments from his pen, however unimportant, that are not worth preserving. The extracts in tho volume before us have been made with loving care by his widow, who has ondeavored to give everything that the publio can properly lay claim to as illustrating the literary life of the writer, and they will undoubtedly receive as cordial a welcome as their predecessors. These English notes were made during Haw thornes residence in England as Consul at Liverpool, from 1S.":5 to 18.s. The ela borated result of his observations in Eng- land he gave us in "Our Old Home," to that work, those will have a distinct They contain many were not included in his volume entitled bat as a supplement jottings by the way value of their own. things that of course the finished work, and they show Hawthorne in a most favorable light as an observer of men and things and as a keen but kindly humorist. During his residence in England he had unusual facili ties for becoming acquainted with the literary and other celebrities of the day, and his re miniscences of the people he met are among the most entertaining passages in the volume. The following is a description of his meeting with Jenny Lind, whom ho met at an enter tainment given by Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Hall: Soon the servants announced Madam Gold Echmidt, and this famous lady made her ap pearance, looking quite different from what I expected. Mrs. Hall established her iu the inner drawing-room, where were a piano and a harp; and shortly alter our hostess came to me and said that Madam Goldsehmidt wished to be introduced to mo. There was a gentle pcremp toriness ib the summons that made it something like being commanded into the presence of a princoes a great favor, no doubt, but yet a little humbling to the recipient. However, I acquiesced with due gratitude, and was pre sented accordingly. She made room for tnc on tbc bo fa, and I sat down and begau to talk. Jenny Lind is rather tall quite tall, for a woman certainly no beauty, but witu sense and bell-relinaee in her aspect and manners. She was suffering under a severe cold, and seemed worn down beside, so probably I saw her under disadvantages. Her conversation is quite sim ple, and I have great faith in her sincerity; and there is auout ner tue manner or a person who knows the world, and has conquered it. She said something or other about the Scarlet Letter; and on my part, I paid her such compliments as a man could pay who never heard her sing. Her conversational voice is an agree able one, rather deep, and not particularly smooth. She talked about America, and of our unwholesome modes of life, as to eating and ex ercise, and of the ill-health especially of our women; but I opposed this view so far as I could with any degree of truth, insinuating my opinion that we are about as healthy as other fiecple, and aflirming for a certaiutv that we ive longer. Iu good faith, so lar as I have any knowledge of the matter, the women of England are as. generally out of health as those of America; always somethiug has gone wroug with them; and as for Jenny Lind, she looks wan and worn enough to be an American her self. This charge of ill-health is almost univer sally brought lorward against us nowadays and, taking the whole country together, i do not believe the statistics will bear it out. Of Douglas Jerrold, whom Hawthorne met at a dinner at the Heforin Club, we have a very interesting account: He was a very short man, but with breadth enough, and a back excessively bent bowed almost to deformity, very grey hair, and a face and expression of remarkable briskness and in telligence. Ills profile came out pretty boldly, and bis eyes had the prominence that indicates, 1 believe, volubility of speech, nor did he fail to talk from the instant of his appearance, and iu the tone of his voice, and in hw glance, and iu the whole man, there was somethiug racy a flavor of the humorist. His step was that of an atred man, and he put his stick down very de cidedly at every footfall; though as he after wards told me he was only fifty-two, he need not have been infirm. I wish I had any faculty whatever of remem bering what people eay; but, though I appreciate anything good at the moment, it never stays iu my memory; nor do I think, in fact, that any thing definite, rounded, pointed, separable, and transferable from the general lump of conver sation was said by anybody. I recollect that they laughed at Mr. , and at his shedding a tear into a Scottish river, on occasion of some literary festival. They spoke approvingly of Bulwer, as valuing his literary position, and holding himself one of the brotherhood of authors; and not bo approvingly of Charles Dickens, who, born a plebeian, aspires to aris tocratic society. But I said it was easy to con descend, and that Bulwer knew he could not put oft his rank, and that ho would have all the advantages of it, in spite of his authorship. We talked about the position of men of letters in Englaud, and they said that the aristocracy hated and despised and learcd them; aud I asked why it was that literary men, having really so much power in their hands, were conteut to live unrecognized in the State. Douglas Jerrold talked of Thackerav and his success in America, and said that be himself purposed going and had been invited thither to lecture. 1 asked him whether it was pleasant to a writer of plays to see them performed; aod he said it was intolerable, the presentation of the author s Idea Lelug so lmpertect; aud Dr. observed that it was excruciating to hear one of his own sougs sung. Jerrold spoke of the Duke of Devonshire with great warmth, as a true, honest, simple, most kind-hearted man, from whom he himself had received great cour . tenies and kindnesses (not, as I understood, iu the way of patronage or essential favors); and I (Heaven forgive me!) queried within myself whether this English reforming author would have been quite so sensible of the Duke's excel lence if his Grace had not been a duke. But, indeed, a nobleman, who is at the same time a true and whole-hearted man, feeling his brother hood with men, docs really deserve some credit lor it. In tfce course of the evening Jerrold xpoke with high appreciation of Emerson; and of Long fellow, v. hose Hiawatha he considered a won derful performance; and of Lowell, who3e Fable for Critics he especially admired. I mentioned Tkoreau, and proposed to seud his works to Dr. . , who, being cowiected with the Illustrate I A' irs, and otherwise a writer, might be incliacd to draw attention to them. Douglas Jerrold asked why be should not have them too. I hesitated a little, but us he pressed me, and would hate an answer, 1 taid I did not feci ;i:it to sure of Lis kindly judgment of Tho rtau't Locks: and it so chanced that I used the void "atiid," lor lack of a better, in endeavor ing to express my idea of Jcrrold's wa) of look ing at men and books. It was not quite what 1 meant; but, in fact, he often is acrid, and has written pages and volumes of acrid ity, though, no doubt, with an honest purpose, nnd from a manly disgust at tho cant and humbug of the world. Jerrold said no more, and I went on talking with Dr. ; but, in a minute or two, I became aware that some thing had gone wrong, and, looking at Doughn Jerrold, there was an expression of pain and emotion on his face. By this time a second bottle of Burgundy had been opened (Clos Yougeot.tuc best the Club could produce, aud far richer than tho Chambertin), and that warm and potent wine may have had something to do with the depth and vivaeit of Mr. Jcrrold's feelings. But he was indeed srrctly hurt by that little word ' acrid." "ileknew,' he said, "that the. ' world considered him a sour, bitter, ill-natured man; but that such a man as I should have the same opiuion was almost more than he could bear." As he spoke he threw out his arms, sank back in his scat, and I was really a little appre hensive of bis actual dissolution ints tears. Hereupon 1 spoke, as was good need, and though, as usual, 1 have forgotten cverytldug I said, 1 am quite sure it was to the purpose, and went to this good fellow's heart, as it cninc warmly from my own. I do remember saying that I felt him "to be as genial as the glass of Burgundy which I held in my hand; and I think that "touched the very right spot; for he 6iuilcd, and said he was afraid the Bur gundy was better than he, but yet he was com forted. Dr. said that he likewise had a reputation for bitterness; and I assured him, if I might venture to join myself to the brother hood of two such men, that I was considered a very ill-natured person by many people in m)' own country. Douglas Jerrold said he was glad of it. We were now in 6wcetest harmony, and' Jer rold spoke more than it would become me to repeat in praise of my own books, which he said he admired, and he found tho man more admirable than his books ! I hope so, certainly. In addition to these extracts we are pro mised one or more volumes mnde up from Hawthorne's Italian notes, which he elabo rated into his romance of "The Marble Faun." These will probably be even more interesting than the series that have preceded them. J. B. Lippincott & Co. also send us "Bound Down; or, Life and its Possibilities," by Anna M. Fitch. This is a pleasantly written story by a somewhat inexperienced writer. Tho sketches of character, scenery, and incidents are marked by decided ability, and the worst fault of the story is the violation of the canons of correct taste by the too frequent attempts at fine writing. This, however, is better than tameness, and we commend "Bound Down" as a really interesting story that gives pro mise of something even better in the future from the samo pen. "Mary Bell and Hazel Doll" is the title of a volume of poems by J. De Haven White, M. D., A. M., that has just been issued from tho press of King & Baird. Dr. "White has long been known as a graceful writer of occa sional verses, and the present collection has been made as is usual on such occasions at the special request of numerous friends. These poems cover a great variety of themes, and they are generally on subjects that will appeal to the popular taste rather than to the fastidious students of the art poetic. They are of various merit, end while some are scarcely of sufficient interest to warrant their preservation, the majority will doubt less be appreciated at their full value by Dr. White's large circle of friends as well as by the public generally. The volume is beauti fully printed and bound, and is embellished by a fine portrait of the author. From Porter & Coatos we have received a "Life of the Empress Josephine," which presents the chief incidents of her remark able career in an interesting shape. The memoir is chiefly founded upon the work of Dr. Mienies, published in London in 1831; "The Memoirs of the Empress Josephine, with notices of tho Courts of Malmaison and Navarre," published in London in 1828; and the memoirs of the Duchess of Abrantes, Bourienne, O'Mara, and Las Casas. It is one of the best and most accurate popular biogra phies of Josephine that have been put before the public, and we commend it as being both reliable and entertaining. J. P. Skelly & Co. send us "Kitty Farn ham'a Letters," a religious 6tory for children, that will make an attractive addition to Sunday-school libraries. . "Linside Farm," by Mrs. J. F. Moon, published by Henry Hoyt, Boston, is a spicy, interesting, and profitable story for young people. It shows how good principles always secure respect and happiness. Such books as "Linside Fawn" should be not only in every Sabbath-school library, but in every family. We cordially commend it to all. lor sale at the Methodist Episcopal book store, No. 1018 Arch street. We have received from Porkinpine & Higgins, No. r North Fourth street, in a neat box, a set of books entitled the "Snow drop Library," which they have just issued. The volumes, of which there are six, are written in the form of short stories. Thirty illustrations render them' specially attractive. The binding is all that it should be. From Turner & Co. we have received AppUton'a Journal, Ertry Satunlty, and Our Boys and Girls for Saturday, June 18. The Central News Company, No. r0." Chesnut street, sends us the latest numbers of Punch and Fun. A PiEMAItKABLE "WtKlEKN CHAUACTER. Tll6 Elko Independent thus refers to a noted female celebrity iu that vicinity: "The town of Carlin is the home of Susie llaper, the famous 'Lady Gay Spanker' and female buccaueer of the sagebrush. Every now and then tho citizens of that plaoe are treated to a little fun bv the fair damsel. busie lias no superior in intrigue, if any equals, book ever pictured accounts are true, and festive as any who ever trod the boldness, dash, and No yeliow-covered her equal, if all Susie is as gay female troubadour mountains under tho blue sky ot Italy. Possessing a natural and graceful appearance, a keen eye, quick intellect, a tongue that sowings on a pivot, she can make up to represent auy character, and has ability enough to execute any deep laid scheme. Mazeppa chief of a gang of hi ad pirates, she boasts of her power to coua-uaud, at a moment's warning, their assistance to execute her wishes, however unlawful or diabolical they may be. Tho experience of the dungeon taught her no lesson, as it wa heped it would have done by her lovers. On Friday last a valuable race-horse of hers, Earned Humboldt, was attached by Constable Brophy, to satisfy a butcher's bill, at Mineral Hill, and brought to Carlin without her knowledge. On learning the fact she went to the stable where the horse was kept, and coaxed the groomsman to allow her to load hiiu into the yard to see if the animal would recognize her. No sooner was she out than she sprang nstride Humboldt and started for another stable, claiming possession, and threatening the officers with destruction if they attempted to retake her horse. She was finally cap tured, after a liberal exhibition of her well- moulded extremities to the greedy street gazera, in her Menken ride through the town. Tho horse was placed in a secure position, nnd Susie left with curses on her lips."' THE TROOPERS' DRILL. AN EXCITING Btr.NE AT THE WEST TOINT MILITARY ACADEMY TLAVINO HOLDIEK IN GALLANT STYLE. A correspondent of the New York World, writing from West Point under date of tho 8th instant, says: 1 1 Yesterday the Secretary of War and Mrs. Belknap, with the sister of the latter, Mrs. Bowers, arrived on the steamer Chanucey Vibbard. General Michler, whoso son gra duates this year, was of the party, who landed in tho midst of a rain that continued until after nightfall. General Belknap comes to study the academy and its system, and will probably remain until tho examinations are closed, when he will distribute the diplomas to the graduates. It may bo welcome news to these that the speech on that occasion will not be long, though they will perhaps regret, when they have heard it, that it was not longer. The Secretary is, however, too sensible to signalize the performance of any duty by ostentation, and too much of a genuine man and boy both in feeling to stay a weekj at West Point without being thoroughly liked. As the bad weather pre vented any outdoor review in honor of his advent yesterday, a trooper drill was ordered at the riding school at 5 P. M. To that build ing quite a number ot visitors, including most of the distinguished guests at the Point, repaired in hacks and omnibuses, and as cended to the rough galleries overlooking the interior. The hall is oblong in shape, laid with sawdust, and roofed with an arch span ning the whole structure from sidewall to wall. Around the sides below a wainscot of boards on end is constructed, slanting down and inwards, thus preventing a horse from sidling against tho wall and crushing his rider's legs. On either side of the hall three posts are set one opposite the centre, under the gallery, the other two near the angles at the ends of the apartment. They are set about six feet from the wall, leaving just room enough for a horse and rider to pass between. On the top of the first post, near the angle, is laid a stuffed leather pad, of about the size and consistency of a boxing glove. Midway between that and the middle post, on the ground, lies a similar pad. From a light gallows-beam at the summit of the higher middle post depends an iron ring, like that at which the knights tilted at the recent Brooklyn tournament. Midway on again, between the middle post and the post stand ing near the farther angle, lies another pad, and still another is laid on the farthest post. The pads represent the heads or hearts of imaginary enemies on foot or kneeling; the ring the head of an enemy on horseback. So, while making the circuit of the hall, a rider encounters no less than four supposable foes on loot, four kneeling with the bayonet, or dodging his onslaught to the very ground, and two on horseback ten in all. This, as snown oy tne exercises yosteruav, Keeps a cavalryman lively. The cadets, forty or fifty of them, seated on their horses in two ranks facing each other from the opposite ends of the hall, presented, clad all in grey, a fine but rather Confederate appearance. They wore sabres, revolvers, and spurs. Their horses, freshly groomed ana oiled, snowed glistening hides. A young cavalry lieutenant, on a distracting grey cnarger, directed tuem wim clear, ring. ing commands. Twos at a time one riding out to an angle of the hall, another to the opposite angle they rode at a gallop around the building, "going for the pads and rings. At tne nrst pad on tne nrst post every caval ryman fired with his pistol. Sheathing that in its holster, he then drew his sabre and trusted to cold steel, Whack ! went the blade against the pad on the ground at the feet of the galloping horse. Cling! rang the blade against the ring, carrying it away. Thud ! upon the next pad. Ping ! and the pad on the farthest post was spitted aloft on the point of the cadet's sabre. So on around. So rapid was the riding that soon the reports of the revolvers and the clang of steel became incessant. The atmosphere became impregnated with powder-smoke. The riders rode through smudge. Hurdles were brought in. Over them they went, carrying away the rings as they leaped. By this time the horses were reeking with sweat, which, mingling with the oil of their toilets, made them as slippery as greased pigs, me order to dismount was given. Off came the Baddies and saddle cloths. The animals were naked to the bridles. "Mount!" and like Indians the cadets sprang up into the air, and came down sans saddles, sans stirrups, on the horses' bare backs. "It felt," said one Sf them afterwards, "as if I had stead ied an enormous eel." Again the order to ride was given ; the pistols rang out; steel clashed; the hurdles cracked under rushing horses' hoofs the horses going at their utmost speed their riders keeping their seats superbly, and cutting, thrusting, and banging away. The horses, excited to a degree not surpassed even in actual battle by this rack and running, got so restive at last that some of the cadets had opportunities to display their very best horsemanship. To the ladies in the, galleries the rearing and plung ing of the steeds, one or two of which tried the experiment of falling in order to unship tneir clinging freights, were especially pleas ing. I Buspect, by the way, that it is sheer nonsense, the idea of American women being any less "cruel," as we call it, than the Spanish. Neither are really fond of blood shed or fatal accidents at shows ;it is the gal lantry displayed in the encounters of the ring or the tournament, the courage which in the worst dangers ennobles the person in the plight, that has the enthusiastic, not to say hysterical, sympathy of lovely woman in all lands. nne on a Bunaay-cnooi excursion near l.unesville, Ohio, lately, a little two-year old irl strayed upon a railroad truck, and in spite oi me en oris oi ine lircman, wuo ciimoed down to the cow-catcher and endeavored to save her, the was run over aud one of her lc'8 taken oil, from .the ctlocts of which she died in a few luiuutt. Ihe scene, when the mother dis covered what bad happened, was heart-rending in the extreme, and cast abloom over the whole lL'ttlVltR'8. A strange team was lately seen in a field near Atlanta. Ut'onria. It cousisted of awhile niau of uoiiKu.il dimenblous harnessed to a plough, and a feinalo of African descent driving and deerlng the iiup'ement. FINANOIAL. gEVEH PER CENT.
