MS VIEW OF NEW BOOKS.'
From Claxton, llemsen .t Hafl'eltinger
vre have received the following new publica
tiont: "Winter Toema by Favorite American
Foete," published by Fields, Osgood & Co.,
is a very beautiful holiday book that gi
worthy of the attention of book-buyers, both
on account of its literary and its artistic
merits. The poems are, "The Fageant," by
J. G. "Whitticr; "The Golden Mile Stone,"
by II. W. Longfellow; "A Winter Tiece," by
"V. 0. Bryant; "The First Snow Fall," by
J. 11. Lowell; "In School Days," by J. O.
"Whittier; "The Snow Shower," by W. C.
Bryant; "Woods in Winter," by II. W. L3ng- j
fellow; "The Snow Storm," by It. W. Em
erson; and "Midnight Mass for the Dying
Year," by II. W. Longfellow. The illustra
tions are by Harry Fenn, Winulow llotner,
C.C. Griswold, W. J. Hennessy, S. Eytinge,
Jr., Homer D. Martin, Jervia MeEntee, and
Alfred Fredericks. They are engraved by
A. Y. S. Anthony, and both as drawings and
engravings they are in the highest degree
creditable to the American artists, and will
compare favorably with the best European
book illustrations.
"Little Fassy Willow," by Mrs. Harriet
Beocher Stowe, published by Fields, Osgood
& Co., is a pleasantly written story for young
people that is made additionally attractive by
a number of clever illustrations and by a
handsome binding that makes it an elegant
gift book for the holidays.
"My Apingi Kingdom," by Taul Du
Chailln, published by Harper & Brothers, is
one of those lively and entertaining books of
travel and adventure in the centre of Africa
that those who have perused Mr. Du Chaillu's
former works will know how to appreciate.
This book gives a great deal of interesting in
formation on natural history subjects, and it
is made additionally attractive by a number
of excellent illustrations.
Another work of somewhat the same de
scription that is likely to be popular with young
readers has also just been issued by Harper
A Brothers. This is the "Adventures of a
Young Naturalist," adapted from the French
of Lucien Bart by Barker Gillmore. It is a
narrative of travel and adventure in Mexico,
and it gives abetter description of some of
the features of that country than any work
we have met with. It is written in an enter
taining style, expressly for the benefit of
young readers, and we heartily commend it
as containing an infinite amount of instruc
tion and amusement. The illustrations are
numerous and remarkably fine. '
E2"From Thistles Grapos?" by Mrs. Elioart,
published by Harper & Brothers, is an English
society novel of average merit and in
terest. " On the Trail of War," by Alexander Innes
Shand, published by Harper & Brothers, is
made np of a series of letters to the London
Times by a correspondent who accompanied
the German armies at the commencement of
the present war. The work is valuable as
giving the personal experiences of an eye
witness to the battles and marches that in
augurated the wonderful campaign now, it
is to be hoped, fast drawing to a close. Mr.
Shand is a graphic writer, and the book is
one that will well repay perusal.
"Italian Life and Legends," by Mrs. Anna
Cora Mowatt-Ilitchie, published by .Carleton,
is a series of sketches from Italian
history and records of Italian experi
ences and impressions. Mrs. Ilitchie never
went very far below the surface in any of
her writings, but if not profound she was
graceful; and the present volume, in addition
to being very readable, has an interest-attached
to it as the last performance of its
lamented author.
"The Cloven Foot," by Orpheus C. Kerr,
published by Carleton, is a very dreary bur
lesque of Charles Dickens' unfinished novel
of Edwin "Drood." It takes all kind of people
to make the world, but we cannot underetand
the particular frame of mind that could in
duce an apparently sane man to perpetrate
such an utterly pointless attempt at humor as
the one before us.
i
"Dream Music," by Frederio Hi Marvin,
published by Carleton, is the title of a book
of verses that are not unmelodious, but in
which we fail to detect any very marked
poetical qualities. ! '
"The Book Above All," by the fate T. H.
Stockton, D. D., published by Claxton, Ilem
sen fc Haffelfinger, is a series of sermons
prepared by Mr. Stockton for publication a
ehort time before his death. The leading
idea is that the Bible is at once a religious,
moral, and political guide, and this is de
veloped and illustrated with all the earnest
ness of profound and sincere conviction. Mr.
Stockton was a man of strong convictions,
and if his violent antagonism to the Church
of Borne and his fears of its influence be
coming predominant in this country appear
to many unwarranted, there is no doubt that
he wrote as he thought and that his fears
were intensely real. As an exposition of the
author's views concerning the Bible this book
will commend itself to a large circle of
readers, while the pure and beautiful Chris
tian spirit that pervades it will secure for it
the regards of many who may not agree on
all points with the writer.
J. B. Lippincott & Co. send us the fql
lowing new books: '
"Our Poetical Favorites," byAshael C. Ken
driek, published by Sheldon & Co. , is a selec
tion from the best minor poems in the Eng
lish language. The poems are nearly all
medern, and the editor thereby does some
what of an injustice to the reader, as some
of the best minor poems in the language were
written by Elizabethan authors. The collec
tion is an excellent one, however, so far as
it g oes, and lovers of poetry will find many
favorites included in it.
"We Girls," by Mrs. A. D.T. Whitney,
published by Fields, Osgood & Co., is a more
than usually pleasing home story, such as few
writers could bate told better than the author
of "Faith Gartney's Girlhood." Mrs. Whit
ih y's last book is one of her best, and it will
undoubtedly find an extensive circle of ad
miring readers. .
"Lost in the For," published by Lee fc
Shcpard, is the third volume of the "B. O.
W. C." series, by James De Mille. Itisaa
exciting tale of adventure, such as a multitude
of boys will read with eager inferest.
From the American Sunday-school Union
we have received the following new religions
stories suitable for Snnday-school libraries:
"What Changed Guy Dennis; or, Life at
School and at Home," "Days at Millgite; or,
Lame Johnnie's Holiday," and "Great Thingi
done by Little People."
T. B. Peterson it Brothers send uh "The
Stolen Mask" and "The Yellow Mask," a
conple of the earlier works of Wilkie Collins,
whioh are strongly markod by the peculiari
ties of his ntyle.
From Turner t Co. we have received
"Christmas Day: the Night Before and the
Night After," a series of popular CbrHttnas
poems gotten up in holiday style.
From the Central News Company, No.
605 Chesnnt street, we have received the No
vember number of All the Year Ilound and
the December number of The Aldine iV.
This last-named publication is profusely illus
trated and contains a great variety of reading
matter especially adapted to the tastes of
holiday readers. The typography of this
publication is, as usual, remarkable for its
beauty.
THE AUSTRIAN POLICY.
Count von Iteunt'n Declarations Aimtrlti
linger for Peace anil Unprepared lor War.
Vienna, Nov. 24. The declaration of the
Vienna Government that it will support Eng
land and Turkey, even to the mom extreme
measures, may have caused some surprise to the
admirers of Count tieust, whose policy has
hitherto been one of peace, especially in all
dillieulties that have at various periods
threatened the Sublime Porte. The Count's
well-known New Year's despatch of 1807 (in
which he proposed a Congress of the
eignatary powers of the treaty of Paris of 1850,
to consider the question whether Russia should
not be released from the. shackles placed upon
her maritime power in the Black iSea), will not
have been forgotten; and the Journal de tit.
l'clersbourg recently asked why Count Beuat
should find the revision of the treaty wrong
and injurious to-day, which he considered as
desirable in 18C7. 1'nat proposition, however,
was made at an apparently ub propitious mo
ment. The political condition of Southern
Europe was then very critical;
Crete 6tood in llames; France and England
considered the proposition "monstrous,"
and Kuesia refused to make use of the
pint; and now the question is again called np,
but in a more dangerous form. Count Beust
takes a moBt decided stand-point, quite at vari
ance with his usual peace-making policy, and
ieeis bouna to oe guinea in nis courie alto
gether by that taken by Turkey and Euarland.
In every question that has previously threat
ened to involve the Porte in war he has
always bean the very foremost to act the
part of conciliator. We need only call to mind
the kindly services of the Austrian Government
in the Servian dillieulties with Turkey; in pre
venting war between Greece and the Sublime
Porte in the Cretan difficulties; and then again
in smoothing away the dillieulties that threat
ened a rupture between the Sultan and the
Khedive; and why does he not now use bis good
services in smoothing away the present dilli
eulties ?
Count Beust has recently answered these
questions himself, in a spirit corresponding to
the tone adopted by the English Government.
What he considered as good policy In 1S07 might
be so in 18"i0 were it adopted in a manner cor
responding to the usages ot civilized nations;
and he complains that the rude breaking of a
treaty by any one power would lead, it per
sisted in by nil European powers, to a condition
of thmgs little removed from barbarism. When
he proposed a Congress in ISoT, all the signatary
powers were in existence; but now Kussia
has seized an opportunity for an illegal act
when one of the then greatest powers lies
prostrate, and the other appears to be in a mood
creating suspicion as to the position which she
intends to occupy. Prussians bound, equally
with f ranee, .England, it;il y, and Austria, to
see that the letter of the treaty is carried out;
when she does not, she places nereeli at the
side of Russia, go say the Austrian journals.
And the result of this alliauce or understanding
between two great powers is considered
dangerous to the existence of Austria;
and the neutrality of PrusEia will
be considered as an act of hostility
towards that Government. The Yicnna journals,
oltlclal and unofficial, ipeak plainly on this
point, and in high diplomatic circles the view
prevails univeri-ally that au understanding not
an alliance, in the exact sense of the word was
had between the Emperor of Russia aud King
William, at the memorable meeting of the two
monarchs at Ems, just before the breaking out
of the German-French conflict; This agree
ment was that Prussia should be left a free
hand with France, and permitted the unmolested
annexation of Alsace aud Lorraine, and, in re
turn, Russia should be at liberty to open up
the Eastern question to her own satisfaction.
This opinion, notwithstanding the fact that
Odo Russell was convinced in Versailles that
no "alliance" exists between the two powers,
is firmly held in Vienna in ollieial quarters.
And the tone of total indifference to Russia's
action, as exhibited In the Prussian press, helps
to strengthen this view.

The bonds are Issued at t20,QC0 per mile a?alnat
the portion on of the lloe fully completed aud
equipped.
The greater part of the road Is already in opera
tion, aud the present earnings are iargeiy in exoes
cf the operating expenses and Interest on the bonds.
The balance of the work necessary to establish
through connections, thereby shortening the dis
tance between St. Faul and Chicago 45 mil js, and 00
miles to St. Louis, Is rapidly progressing, in time for
the movement of the coming grain crops, which, It
is estimated, will double the present income of the
road.
The established character of this road, running as
It does through the heart of the most thickly-seUled
and richest portlou of the great 8tate of Iowa, to
gether with Its present advanced condition and large
earnings, warrant us in unhesitatingly recommend
ing these bonds to investors as, in every respect, an
undoubted security. A small quantity of the Issue
only remains unsold, and when the enterprise Is
completed, which will be this fall, an immeaiate ad
vance over subscription price may be looked for.
The bonds have fifty years to run, are convertible
at the option of the holder into the stock of the Com
pany at par, and the payment of the principal is pro
vided for by a sinking fund. The convertibility
privilege attached to these bonds cannot fail to cause
them, at an early day, to command a market price
considerably above p r. U. S. Five-twenties at pre
sent prices return only 4)tf per cent, currency lute
rest, while these bonds pay 9 per cent., and we
regard them to be as safe and fully equal as a security
to any Railroad Bond Issued; and until they are
placed npon the New York Stock Exchange, the
rules of which require the road to be completed, we
obligate ourselves to rebuy at any time any of these
bonds sold by us after this date at the same price as
realized by us on their sale.
All marketable securities taken In payment free of
commission and express charges.
