LITERATURE. HE VIEW OF XEW BOOKS. "Hargneiite Kent," by Marion Wayne, which has just been published by J. 13. Lip fiticott & Co., is a Btory in which there is less art than matter. From all its internal evidences we should pronounce it the effort of a comparatively inexperienced writer, whose enthusiasm for her subject has some times obscured her judgment, but in spite of its crudities it is a story of very decided merit, Btich as could not have proceeded from the pen of any but a writer of much ability. The Btory itself is entertaining, and it is en livened by some really admirable sketches of character aud some scenes of considerable dramatic power. Although we look upon it mainly as a promise of even better things in the future, the average renders of fiction will find much good entertainment in its perusal. Claxton, Remsen & Xlaffelnnger send us of the recent publications of Harper & Bro thers the following: "A School History of the United States," by David 1$. Scott, is a brief but comprehen sive summary of the leading events from the discovery of the country to the present time. The chapters that treat of the rebellion are in particular very satisfactory; the move ments of the different campaigns being, a far as possible, kept together, so that an ex cellent idea of the progress of the military events is presented to the student. At the close of various marked periods, general re flections are introduced, and questions for review ere interpersed throughout the volume. The book is profusely illustrated by fine wood-cuts and numerous maps. "Mental Arithmetic," by John II. French, 1SL. D., is the third volume of French's arithmetical series. It is based upon a philo sophical p'an, and by the aid of cuts and diagrams it makes plain to the comprehension , of the pupil the elementary principles of arithmetic-, while by its progressive arrange- nent it stimulates his mental faculties. "Michael Rudolph, 'the Bravest of the Brave,' " by Miss Eliza A. Dupuy, published by T. B. Peterson & Brothers, is an historical romance based upon a tradition that Marshal Key was none other than a hero of our own Revolutionary war named Michael Rudolph. Miss Dupuy apparently believes in the truth of this tradition, but, whether she does or not, she has made use of it with a great deal of ingenuity, and "Michael Rudolph" i3 an ex ceedingly interesting and exciting story. rorter & Coates send us "The Ame rican Fopular Speaker." This is a collec tion of pieces in prose and verse for read ing and declamation. , The compiler has shown good taste and judgment in many of his selections, but he might have extended bis researches in English and American lite rature still further with advantage, as a good many of the extracts included in this book are venerable old stagers that have done duty in speakers and readers innumerable ever since buch aids to education were thought of. Forter & Coates also send U3 "Elements of Astronomy," J. Norman Lockyer, and "Ser- mons Treached in Memorial Church, Balti more," by Rev. Octavius Perinchief. Tub lishfd by D. Appleton & Co. "The Elements of Astronomy" is a re print, with some alterations to adapt it to the schools of the United States, of a work that is deservedly popular in England, and we re commend it as one of the best elementary works on the subject we have seen. The re sults of the most recent astronomical inves tigations and discoveries are given, and the Bptctrurn analysis in particular is explained in a very full and satisfactory manner. A colored plate giving the spectra of the sun, stars, and nebulie is the best illustration of this interesting subject we have ever seen in a work designed for popular use, and it will aid greatly in enabling those who use the book to understand one of the most beautiful and important results of inodorn science. The volume of "Sermons", by Rev. Octa vius Perinchief treats a great variety of sub jects from a plain and practical Christian standpoint, and we commend it to the notice of religious readers of all classes. "The French Verb," by Ch. Reynal, published by George R. Lockwood, which has been sent us by E. H. Butler & Co., is a little manual that will be cordially welcomed by French students. It contains the theory and model conjugations of all French verbs, and also a dictionary of all such verbs as pre sent any peculiarities in their uses or 'conju gations, with references to the models and to complete tableaux of all the irregular and de fective verbs. Such a book as this will need no special reoommendation to teachers or 6tudents of the French language, as it sup plies an important desideratum in the list of French text-books. The American Sunday School Union has just published the following religions storios for children: ."Little May's Legacy;" "The Children of Long Ago," "The Clouded Gem," and "The Valley of Stains." The Sunday Magazine, Good Words, and Coed Words for the Young, for October, which we have received from J. B. Lippin cott & Co., are, as usual, full of entertaining reading matter from the pens of some of the Lest English writers of the day. All three of these magazines are profusely illustrated. The October number of The PennMonthly Magazine contains several able articles, amoDg which the most prominent is one en titled "Wealth: of what does it consist?" by Henry C. Carey. I'tterii' Musical Monthly for October has an excellent variety of popular inusio arranged for ihe piano.
