LITDIlATUIin.
BE VIEW OF NEW BOOKS.
From Porter A Coates we have received
the following recent publications of D. Apple
ton & Co.:
"The Origin of Civilization and the IVuni
tive Condition of Man," by Sir John Lubbock,
Bart., M. I, F. II. 8., is a sequel to the same
author's 'Trehistorio Times;" and apart from
its scientifio value it ia an exceedingly inte
resting record of the manners, customs,
habits, and mental and religious oondition of
the savage tribes. Sir John Lubbock is an
investigator of the school of Darwin and
Huxley, and although his facts and opinions
frequently conflict with tho orthodox ideas
of the present day, only a very
blind and obstinate bigotry will
deny their importance or refuse to give them
consideration. The work before us treats of
a great variety of subjects, but the chapters
npon "Marriage and Relationship, " "Reli
gion," and "Character and Morals" are those
which will command tho most attention.
These relate many exceedingly curious facts
which have an important relation to the
moral and physical development of the human
race, and whether all readers will agree with
the conclusions that the author draws from
them, or not, there will be few to decline
giving him the credit for an honest endeavor
to arrive at the truth.
"Valerie Aylmer," by Christian Reid, as
tho first effort of a young American novelist
is entitled to much praise. Mr. Reid is a
Southerner, and his story, the scenes of which
are laid principally in Louisiana and Balti
more, has a good deal of moaning over the
"lost cause" in it, and a good deal of talk
about "free lances, "pretty pages," and other
pseudo chivalrio nonsense that is character
istic of the section of the country to which
Mr. Reid belongs, and which it is to be hoped
will be done away with by the new influences
that are now remoulding Southern thought
and society. All the women of this story are
perfectly beautiful, and all the men are
Apollos and Adonises, while any such
thing as real character is apparently
beyond the comprehension of the author.
If theso were tho only distinguishing features
of the novel, it would not be worthy of more
attention than the thousand and ono efforts
of third-class fiction writers that are annually
issued from the press. Mr. Reid, however,
knows how to tell a btory; and while his plot
is open to the objection of not being as well
digested as it might, it is highly dramatic,
and some of the more important scenes and
incidents show unmistakable power. As the
first effort of a young writer, "Valerie
Aylmer" is certainly a story of great promise,
and Mr. Reid, if ho fulfils the reasonable ex
pectations raised by this performance, will
easily obtain a high rank among the living
American novelists.
J. B. Lippinoott & Co. send us the fol
lowing new publications of Loe & Shepard:
"Why and How," by Russell H. Conwell,
is the now work on China and the Chinese
of the more important features of which we
published an abstract a few weeks ago. Mr.
Conwell was for many years a resident of
China, and this work shows him to have
been an attentive and appreciative student
of the manners, customs, and ideas of the
people. The work is a lively and entertaining
record of incidents of travel and of the innu
merable objects- in terest that are likely to
come under the observation of a wide-awake
American in such a country as China, but
its chief value is in the view it takes of
Chinese emigration, and of the why and
wherefore of the great exodus from the
Flowery Kingdom that is now giving so much
trouble to American politicians. As the
Chinese question is now becoming ono of the
first importance in this country, the work
before ns is well deserving of the thoughtful
attention of those who wish to understand it
in all its bearings, and we cordially recom
mend it as the best exhibit on the subject of
Chinese emigration that has yet been put
before the public
"Letters Everywhere" is the title of f
Beries of short stories and rhymes for chil
dren which bear the stamp of a French
origin, and which are illustrated by a number
of very artistic designs by Theophile Sohuler,
This is one of the prettiest books for chil
dren we have seen for a long time, and we
prediet for it a great popularity with the
young people.
"The Social Stage," by George M. Baker,
is a series of dramas, comedies, burlesques,
and entertainments for parlor theatricals,
schools, and public exhibitions. These little
dramas are well written, and as they are easy
to act, and do not require any great prepara
tion in the way of scenery and dresses, they
are well deserving of the attention of sta ge-
struck youths and damsels who are anxious
to give their friends a. sample of their his
trionio abilities.
"Mrs. Hale's Receipts for the Million,"
published by T. B. Peterson fc Brothers, con
tains 4545 receipts, facts, directions, eto., ia
the useful, ornamental and domestic arts. Most
of these are sensible and useful, but a number
are excessively silly, and have all the appear
ance of having been used simply as padding
The American Sunday School Union send
ns the following religious stories for children
which it has just published: "Afterwards:
or, Janet's True Friend;" "Diok and his Don
key; or, llow to ray the Kent; "Out in the
Storm, ana Hungering and Thirsting.
Part No. 11 of "Lippincott's Pronouncing
Dictionary of Biography and Mythology" has
been issued. It brings the work down to the
title "Paul Delaroche." The most important
biographies in this compilation are very fall
and satisfactory, and it is undoubtedly the
most complete work of the kind ever given to
the public.

The Hchoolday Visitor tor November has
a pleasant variety of stories, sketches, and
poetry adapted to the tastes of young
readers.
rorriAn Feelino in France. The German
war coi respondents make frequent references
to the intensely hostile feeling of the French
population. Herf Wachenbusen, f the
Cologne Gazette, says: "That at Nancy tho
billetting of the soldiers has been suspended,
in consequence of murders committed on
them in their quarters. There, as in every
part of France occupied by the invaders, tho
hatred of the people is daily increasing, an J
the fooliFb nope of driving out the enemy by
a national rising is fanned by emissaries of
the republic. Six thousand men are said to
be already under arms concealed in the woi.ls,
and commanded by a General. As yet th jre
have been few outrages of this kind, but a
gendarme has been murdered at Nancy, and
postillions are fired on. 'If the guerrilla war
fare, against which we know how to defend
ourselven, really commences, it will flame up
in every corner. In tne vicinity of jletz, ac
cording to another writer, soldiers have a
second time been fired on at Mariculx, and in
an adjacent village the road was blocked up
with heavy stones. A fine was imposed,
which had the next day to be increased five
fold, as the stones were still not removed. A
change of the position of the troops bofore
Metz recently gave the people the impression
that the Germans were retreating, and that
MacMahon was advancing from tho Vesges
with 200,000 men. Nobody believes in the
magnitude of tho French defeats, and though
those who saw the long trails of prisoners
pass by have misgivings, they are not without
the hope of a turn of fortune. Metz, it is in
sisted, can hold out not only months but yeais,
the provisions being on so large a scale and
the heroism of the army and townspeople
being so great.
"A few days ago a woman offered some
brandy for sale, attracting a group of soldiers
around her, but it was found to be poisoned.
and 6he was arrested. The writer regards
the attitude of the people as a cogent reason
against the annexation of Metz and its
vicinity. Another correspondent states that
at Muhihausen, where tho railway station n
occupied by the Germans, they do not enter
the town unless armed to the teeth. They
have been fired on frequently, but at pre
sent only one Lhlan has been killed. The
artisans are strongly inclined to Communism,
and before the entry of the troops had de
molished the Town Hall. The rest of the
people, little as they like tho Germans, are
consequently glad of their presence. An
officer writes from Champey: "We are no
longer sure of our lives; an army gendarme
has just been shot before our door, and when
an officer hurried out to look for the crimi
nal two bullets whistled past his ear. The
offenders unfortunately could not be discov
ered.
The Sueeendeb op SiBASBtrcta. The
Staatianzeigcr publishes the terms of the
capitulation of Strasburg, as follows:
lbe royal Prussian Lieutenant-General von
Werder, commander of the corps besiegin g
Strasburg, solicited by the French Lieutenant-
General Ubriob, commander of Strauburg, to
put an end to the hostilities against the fort
ress in consideration of the honorable and
brave defense of tho place, agrees to con
clude the following capitulation:
Article 1. At 8 o clock in the morning on
Sept. 28, 1870, Lieutenant-General Uhrich
evacuates the citadel, the Austerlitz gate, tho
Fisher gate, and the National gato. At the
same time the German troops will occupy
these positions.
Article 2. At 11 o clock on the same day
the French garrison, including Gardes Mobiles
and National Guards, leave the fortress
through the National gate, take up position
between lunette No. 44 and redoubt No. 37,
and there lay down their arms.
Article 6. The troops of the line and the
Gardes Mobiles become prisoners of war and
march out with their luggage. The National
Guards and francs-tircurs are released on
parole, and by 11 o'clock A. M. surrender
their arms at tbe Mayor s olhce. The list of
the officers of these troops at the same hour
to be furnished to General von Werder.
Article 4. The officers of the French garri
son of Strasburg are at liberty to depart and
chose their own place of residence, on parole
the form of the parole is attached to these
articles ef capitulation. Those officers who
do not sign the parole proceed with the pri
soners of war to Germany. All the French
military surgeons remain until further notice
in their functions.
Article 5. Lieutenant-General Uhrich, im
mediately upon the surrender of arms, agrees
to deliver over, through the proper ofneer.,
all tbe military material on hand. Officers
and officials charged with this duty assemble
on the 28tb, at 12 o'clock, upon the Place da
Broglie.
This capitulation is executed and signed by

Mr. Percival, the barrister appointel to
revise the list of voters for the city, recently
resumed bis sittings at the Court of Commoa
Pleas, Guildhall, when Mr. Louis Birmstingl,
Nob. 20 and 21 Basinghall street, claimed to
be registered. Mr. C. Smith objected
to the claimant on the ground that be was an
alien. The claimant eaid he was born in
Hungary and had come to England when very
young. He afterwards went to Australia,
where he remained for many years. By virtue
of an act of tne (joiomal Liegmlature a res!
dence of a eertain period in that colony
naturalized him and obtained the rights of a
British subject. The revising barrister said
the case must stand over until the claimant
could prove to his satisfaction that thU was
tbe case.

THE TOILERS OF THE SEA.

I 1 1 It earn ltads-MRved fit ..nut.
Among the tidings of the disasters attendant
on the hurricanes is that of the miraculous
i ape of the schooner Dutch Prlncess.Captaln
Hansen, which left New York on the 13th of
AuRUBt for Maracaibo, laden with a full cargo of
general merchandise, and three passengers. Up
to the 2Uth the voyage was remarkably pros
perous. On the afternoon of that day the
weather became clouded, and a heavy gale
sprung up from the N. N. E., varying occa
sionally to east. The following day the
gale had increased in intensity, and
towards evening became a hurricane. All
sails were taken In and the vessel was
put before the wind under bare poles until noon,
when the sea ran mountains high, apparently
about to engulf tho vessel. The captain,
seeing that the ship was in danger of going
down with a run, concluded to lay her to, be
lieving it to be the only course open to him.
The perilous momcat of swinging her round to
bring her head to the wind was not passed with
out danger, for in so doing she was thrown on
her beam ends in the trough of the sea. All on
board thought she was going down. The deck
load, consisting of kerosene, was nearly all
washed away. The captain seized an axe out
of the cabin and cut away the mainmast rlgglne:,
by which means the topmact went overboard,
w hich helped her slightly. In doing this Captain
Howell chopped his foot badly. The cabin was
full of water, and one of the passengers had a
narrow escape from drowning, fcfho was at last
brought head to tho wind and righted. The
hurricane blew terrificly from all round the
compass, driving the vessel round In circles and
tearing everything on deck to pieces and loot
ing her I iwpprit. Again she was thrown on her
beam ends and began to leak badly. It was
found necessary to cut away the foremast, by
which she again righted. Leaking badly, with
her masts gone and the hurricane raging, the
unfortunate vessel was at the mercy of the
winds and waves, and those on board expected
to go down every moment. The following
day the gale abated, and an effort was made
to rig up a sail on the stump of the
mainmast : it worked successfully for
half an hour, and was then blown into shreds.
All hope was again given up of saving the ship,
as the sea was running awfully high and tho
vessel laboring heavily. In the dire extremity a
council was held by the captain, mate, and
sailors as to what should be done in the emer
gency, and it was resolved to allow the vessel
to drift, as she was utterly beyond control.
The next day the sea began to lessen, and with
renewed energy the captain succeeded in rig
ging up an awning and a leg-of-mutton sail, and
to make for the nearest port, which was St.
Thomas, according to observations taken, and
in this manner creeping along the Dutch Prin
cess arrived at St. Thomas in a sinking con-
unuon.
THE VALUE OF TARIS.
What Is Kinked In the Present Siege.
The London Economist calculates how much
property the defenders of Paris expose to dan
ger ny awaiting a rrussian attacK: l. ine
value of tflo house property may be approxi
mately arrived at by an estimate based on the
value oi lonuon property, and apportioning to
Paris an amount proportionate to the popula
tion. London, with a population of 3,400,000,
having a valuation of about 270, 000. 000, which,
capitalized at about twelve years' purchase,
represents a sum of .324, 000, 000, we may
reckon that Paris, with a population of
1,800,000, contains private house property
worth about 171, 500,000. Deducting ten
per cent, as the value of the ground rents
and unoccupied area, which may be treated as
indestructible, though ground-rents would fall
if Paris were half destroyed, we have a net sum
of A" 154, 350, 000, representing the value of
Parisian buiiclinirs which a complete bombard
ment and a street defense would annihilate. 2.
On this basis we mar calculate that an amount
equal to one-half the value of the buildings
will be invested in furniture or contents of the
dwellings. In this way we get an estimate of
4:77,175,000 as the value of furniture and other
contents of Parisian houses. 3. The value of
the etock in trade in Parisian shops and ware
houses win prooaoiy he at least one-third the
aggregate of the above amounts another sum
of A'77. 175,000. This is a minimum computa
tion. It appears from the returns of our fire
insurance duty, when it existed, that the stock
in trade insured over the whole of England
was about one-third the value 01 the entire
property insured; and as stock-in-trade is dis
proportionately concentrated in large cities, it
is safe to reckon that in a city like Paris the
proportion of stock-in-trade to other insurable
property will be as great as the average of the
whole of England. Probably the estimate is far
below the mark, though a very low one would
of course be proper just now, considering the
withdrawal of property which must have been
going on in expectation of a siege. These three
figures sum up as follows: 1. Value of build
ings. 154.350,000: 2. Value of furniture and
other contents of dwellings, 77,175,000; 3,
value of stock-in-trade, 77,loOOO total,
311.700.000. which we may take as the mini
mum value of private property in Paris de
structible in a siege.
