Be j ublicfttions:
"The Cniklren's Crusade," by George Za
lr'mkie Gray, published by ' llnrcl t llough
too, is on exhaustive account of one of the
most curious religious epidemics of the Mid
dle Ages. "When crusade after crusade bad been
organized for the rescue of the holy sepul
chre from the bands of the Saracens, and re
peated failures had cooled the ardor of tho
warriors of Europe, tbe children of France
and Germany became suddenly inspired with
tbe idea that they were destined to accom
plish what the armies of Christendom had
failed to perform. The accounts that have
torn down to us of this remarkable move
ment are so few and so obscure that the chil
dren's crusade has generally been regarded as
one of the myths of the Middle Ages. There
appears to be substantial evidence, however,
that such movement did aotually occur
about the commencement of the thirteenth
enhiry, and the volume before us is the re
sult of a careful search for facts in the pages
of old chroniclers who have set down, with
various additions from their own imagina
tion, what they had seen or heard with regird
to it. Mr. Gray appears to have performed
bis work thoroughly, to have as far as pos
sible separated fact from fiction, and ia fast
to have exhausted the subject. He gives
omplete sketches of the organization of the
two German and one French army of children
who set out under different leadors, confi
dent in the, expectation that the sea would
open before them and offer them a pathway
to Palestine, where their hymos and
spiritual songs would pro lace a
vastly different effect upon the infi
dels than the swords of the warriors were
able to do. Mr. Gray traces the march of the
three armies, their discomfiture, disorganiza
tion, and return, with great exaotness, anl he
combines with the main features of his narrative
much information about the condition of
Europe in the thirteenth century that will
enable the reader to understand how such an
episode as the children's crusade was possible.
With the exception of a tendency at times to
mere sermonizing, tho work is written in
attractive style the author evidently being
in hearty sympathy with his subject, and we
ommend it to the notice of our readers as a
most curious and interesting record. The
book is handsomely printed, and is bound in
elegant and appropriate style suitable for tho
holiday season.
"At Last," by Marion Tlarland, published
by Carleton, is a new novel by a popalar
writer, who has a large circle of admirers.
"At Last" is an interesting story, with a well
constructed plot and some admirably drawn
characters. It will be found fully as enter
taining as any of the author's previous works.
"Adrift with a Vengeance," by Kinahan
Cornwallis, also from the press of Carleton, is
a story of adventure which contains many
exciting incidents! and some highly graphic
descriptions of scenery and life in all parts of
the world. Mr. Cornwallis, who is well
known as the editor of the New York Albion,
is an able writer, and in "Adrift with a Ven
geance" he has produced a very interesting
story, that is full of life and animation from
first to last.
From J. B. Lippincott & Co. we have
received the following of Lee & Shepard's
recent publications:
"Double Play: or, How Joe ITrdy Chose
nil Friends," by William Everett, is a story
for boys written in the atyle that boys ad
mire. Ik is interesting in itself, and is full
of that hearty appreciation of boyish tastes
and feelings that will appeal in the strongest
manner to the sympathies of the rising
generation of American citizens.
The second volume of the series entitled
"The Tone Masters" by Charles Barnard,
contains biographical sketches of H-tnddl
and Haydn, which are writton especially with
view of engaging the attention of young
readers and inspiring them with a love for
musical art. Handel and Haydn are two
great names in the annals of muuic, and
young people will be all the readier to listen
appreciatively to their compositions after
reading such interesting summaries of their
lives as are contained in the volume be
fore us.
I. Kohler, No. 202 North Fourth street,
Bends lis a very beautiful little volume con
taining the original text of Burger's famous
ballad of "Lenore" and a translation by
Henry D. Wireman. The version is in the
came metre as tbe original, but while ad
mitting the force of tbe arguments advanced
by Mr. Wireman is his preface for such treat
ment, we are forced to confess that his trans
lation, while it retains the form, has less of the
spirit of Burger's poem than some that have
taken greater liberties with its outward
shape. This translation possesses many
merits, however, and the beautiful manner
in which it is printed and bound makes it a
very elegant gift book for the holiday season.
From A. H. Hubbard, No. 403 Chesout
street, we have received "Belden, the White
Chief," edited by General James 8. Brisbin,
U. S. A. Published by C. F. Vent, Cincin
nati and New York. This work ia a record of
twelve years of adventure among the Indians
of the Plains from 1658 to 1870 aud ia
Belden's own narrative, rewritten and put
into shape by General Brisbin, without mate
rial Alteration. Belden's career has been a
remarkable one, and he Las distinguished
himself as a trapper and hunter among the
Indians, and subsequently as a soldier, 83 ) it,
and guide while holding a commission in the
regular army. The work before us, which
gives a very complete narrative of the events
f his life, is full of exciting advent areu and
most Interesting descriptions of life upon the
great plains of the Far West, and it will bo
ure of finding numerous readers among both
old and young. The following description of
an Indian village will give an idea of the btyle
of the book:
Que can Lave no appreciative idea of an
Indian village unlets be has been permitted to
rone across Uie prairie through a hot summer's
mid, and suddenly discovers one nettled under
tbe broad sbade tree, beside a clear mailing
stream, In a green valley. How pleasant the
grata tben look; how refreshing tbe bright
waters, and how cozy tbe tail lodges, with
tbeir shaded verandahs of thickly interwovea
bought!
All day ion if we had toiled over the scorcklng
plain, through clouds of grasshoppers that
often struck us lu the face with sufficient force
to make tbe f kin smart fr several minutes.
Once we had seen a mirage of a beautiful lake,
fringed with trees and surrounded by green pas
tures, which invited us to pursue' lis fleeting
shadows, but we well knew all about these de
ceptions by tad experience, and pushed steadily
on over the burning sands.
These mirages often decelvete weary travel
ler of the desert. Suddenly Itic horsi-nnn sees
a river or lake, apparently, lost ahead of him,
and be rides oa aud on, hoping t come up to
it. For hours it lies before his eyes, and ttieu
In a moment disappears, leaving him miles and
miles out of hta way, and In the midst of desert
sands.
Men have ridden all day striving to reach the
beautiful river just before tbem, aud then at
uigbt turn bark to plod their weary way to
where tkey had started from in tbe morning.
These mirages often lead to death both nun and
hone.
The mirage we bad seen was most delightful,
representing a clear lake, with trees, meadows,
and villages nettling ou its shores, but It scarcely
equalled the reality of the scene when, late la
the afternoon, we ascended a rise In tbe prairie,
and saw below us a wide stream lined with green
trees, aud on its banks a large Indiau ensainp
ment. The ponies pricked up their cars and neighei
with pleasure as they smelt the water, and onr
own delight was unbounded. We baited for a
moment to admire the beautiful prospect.
Through the majestic trees, slauticg rays of tbe
sun shivered on the grass. Far away, winding
like a huge silver-serpent, ran the river, while
near by in a shady grove, stood the village the
children at play ou tbe green lawn?, not made by
hands. The white sides of the teepees shone In
the setting sunlight, and the smoke curled
lazily upward from their dingy tops. Bright
ribbons and red grass, looking like streamers
on a ship, fluttered from the lodge-poles, and
gaudily-dressed squaws and warriors walked
about, or sat on the green aod under the trees.
There were maidens, as beautiful as Hiawatha,
or as graceful as Minnehaha, wandering, hand
In band, along the stream, or listening under
the shade of some wide-spreading tree to words
of love, as soft and tender as ever were poured
into woman's ear.
Near the village were hundreds of horses aad
ponies with bright feathers Haunt! ug in their
manes and tails as they cropped the rich grass
of the valley.
A group of noisy children wero playing at a
game much rcfembling ten-pin?; some boys
wero shooting at a mark with arrows,and up the
stream several youths were returning home
with rod aud Hue, and flue Btriugs of speckled
trout.
Scores of men and women were swimming
about in the river, now diving, and then dousing
each other amid screams of J tugbter from the
bystanders on the shore. Here and there a
young girl darted about like a fish, her black
hair streaming behind her in the water.
While we looked, the little children suddeuly
ceased irom piay anu ran kio tue lodges;
mounted men surrounded the herd, and the
swimruers and promenaders hastened toward
the village. We had been perceived by tbe vil
lagers, and the unexpected arrival of strange
horsemen at an Indian encampment always
creates great excitement, i bey may be Irleuds,
but they are more often enemies, so the vil
lagers are always prepared for a turprisc.
Some men were see u running to and fro with
guns and bows, and in a few minutes buisn
mounted warriors left the encampment aud
rode towards us, going first to the top of tbe
highest mound to tee if they conld discover
other horsemen in tbe rear, or to the riht or
left of us.
No sooner did tfeey ascertain there were but
three in the party, then they rode boldly up and
asked us our business, I "told them who we
were, and wher e wo were from, upon which
they cordially invited us to the village.
As we approached, man, wonieu, and children
poured out of tho encampment to look at the
strangers, and having satisfied their curiosky,
the sports and amusements ot the evening wero
renewed.
1 asked permission to camp of no one, for I
needed none, as this was God's land, and not
owned by ravenous and dishonest speculators.
So 1 marched right down to the centre of the
village, and finding a vacant space, pitched my
lodge. It was not necessary to purchase a town
lot here, for no one, save Him who owns all,
held real estate.
A few Santee women gathered about my
squaws and chatted with them, anxious to
learn the news from down the river. Seeing
that they were interfering with the unpacking
of the ponies and tbe erecting of the lodge, I
unceremoniously ordered them to be gone, and
they went quietly away. The lodge was soon
up; the ponies unpacked and put out to graze.
Having seen things put In order for the night, I
sauntered out through the village to learn the
news.
I was agreeably surprised, when I learned
there was a white man in tbe village, who had
been sent out to the Indians as a missionary.
All the savages spoke of him as a kind-hearted,
good man, who was a great friend of tbe Great
Spirit and of the Big Father at Washington.
1 made haste to pay my respects to my white
brother, and found him indeed a good Christian
gentleman. He had a white wife and child, and
he and they were living comfortably and plea
santly with these wild children of the desert. I
talked more than an hour with the good man; it
was so delightful to see and speak with one of
my own blood and eolor. When I left him, 1
promised 1 would return the next day and dine
with him, which I did. It may sound strange
to hear one talk of "dining out" iu an Indian
camp, but I can assure my civilized readers the
meal was none the less wholesome or abundant
on account of the place In which it was served.
When I returned to my lodge, I found it sur
rounded by a crowd of dirty squaws and chil
dren, who were Intent upon examining every
thing we bad. I ordered them off, and could
not kelp laughing when I compare the curi
osity of these rude Iadian women with that 1
had seen exhibited aU church, In the States, by
white women. There they go to church, not to
bear the gospel, but to see what tbeir neighbors
have to wear, and these Indiau women had
ceme to my lodge with the same laudable ob
ject. I am not certain that human nature is
the same everywhere, bat I ant quite certain
woman nature is the same all the world over.
J. P. Bkelly & Co. send ns "The Builders,"
by Miss L. Bates, a religious story for young
people, suitable for a holiday gift or to be
added to Sanday-school libraries.
From T. B. Peterson Sl Brothers we have
received "A Bent in a Cloud," by Charles
Lever. This is an amusing tdory, written in
the lively and graphio stle for which the
author of "Charles O'Malley" is famous, and
it is sure of finding a multitude of appre
ciative readers.
The same house send ns "Major Jones'
Chronicles of Pineville," a humorous work
that has long been before the publio, but
vthich still continues to maintain its popu
larity. ,"Frarik Leslie's Illustrated Almanac,"
which we have received from Tarner & Co.,
is full of attractive pictures and entertaining
reaoing matter upon a great variety of sub
jects. A Chicago philanthropist has Invented a
method of wearing pantaloons without the use
of buttons.
A youth respectably connected at Chicago,
and not yet seventeen years of age, recently
died Uom the cQecta of txcesuiva driaklug.
