THE DAILY EVENING TELEQRAFIi PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1871. 3 LiTnitATunn. REVIEW OF NEW B 0 OK B . In "The Descent of Man," Toluraa ii, by Claries DarwiH, II. A., F. It. 8., to., and "On tie Genesis f Species,' by St. Georgs Mivart, F. It. S., tbe ban aad antidote arc both before us. Mr. Darwia's second voluma continues tha disouaaion of tha interesting object of sexual selection commenced in tha first, and as a collection of soientiua facta it ia of tha highest raise, whether tha conclu sions to which it points ara accepted or not. Tha investigations of such man as Darwin and Wallace, earnest, honest, and accom plished searchers after truth, cannot ba ignored by theologians acd others, who find it difficult or impossible to reconaila their facts and opinions with preconceived notions whioh have nb scientific foundation, and whioh ara frequently not supported by tha state ments of tbe Soriptures when the meanings of these statements ara caref ally measured. It is far better to meet the Dar wins, tha Wallaces, and the Huxleys of tha day upon their (own ground, as Mr. Mivart does, witn a cordial recognition of tha value of their scientific aervices. No intelligent man or woman who wishes to be informed upon tha progress of scientific thought and investigation in oar day can afford to leave the writings of Mr. Darwin unread, and much of tha criticism which has been launched against the in has proceeded froua persons who evidently did not understand his thearies or the facta upon which they wera based. Such criticism of course is valueless with those who think for themselves, and as an antidote to tha skepti cal tendencies of Mr. Darwins works tha "Genesis of Species" is one of the most im portant contributions to literature that has yet appeared. Mr. Mivart accepts Mr. Dar win's facts at their full value, but contends that the proper inferences are not drawn from them, and that they are not necessarily irre concilable with Scripture. Ilia argumeat ia that the investigations of Darwin and others have as yet revealed but a small portion of tha truth, and that important de velopments are yet to be made. With regard to the theory that man is descended froai lower forma, he contends that the soul of man and his sens of moral accountability are not accounted for under it, and that Mr. Dar win's conclusions are drawn from ba.1, half revealed truths. It is evident that a work written in this spirit will receive tha candid consideration of those who would pay no re gard whatever to theologieal diatribes; and as theologians must recognize the facta of science if they expeet to retain their influence, we commend Mr. Mivart's work most heartily to their consideration, as well as to that of general readers. We particu larly invite for it the attention of the cleri cal opponents of Darwinism as likely at least to give them some hints with regard to the right method of conducting controversies upon Kcicntifio subjects. "The Genius of Speuies" is no mere final and cone'usive than are the works of Darwin and Wallace, but it is a valuable contribution to the controver sial literature which has been created by the investigations and speculations of those men, and it is withal exceedingly interesting merely considered as an exposition of natu ral facts. Doth of the above-mentioned works are published by D. Appleten !L Co., and are for sale in thii city by Port6r & Coates. "Sober Thoughts on Staple Themes" and "Windfalls," by llichard Randolph, ara a couple of volumes of essays in pros and verse upon a variety of subjects such as "Brotherly Love," "The Rule of Poverty," "Primary Problems," "Mind and Money Con sidered as Currencies," "The Criminality of Covetoutness," "Christian Communion," "The Knowledge of Good and Evil," "Mathe matica Typical of Universal Science," "Num ber as am Object," "The Place of Fiction," etc The essavs ara esnerallv brief, which is a merit; and they are generally rather dry reading, which is not. They contain some valuable ideas, however, which will commend thtni to the attention of those who read for something besides amusement. The poems are nothing more than didactio essays in verse, and there is little in them that could ' sot have been better expressed in prose. Publibhed by Claxton, Keuisen & llaffel ringer. "Ilimself Ilia Worst Enemy," by Alfred P. Drotiieibrad, is a novel bated upon the well-known facts of the career of the witty but profligate and reckless Philip, Duke of Wharton. The real events of Wharton's life were so romantio that the novelist has had a comparatively easy task in writing an enter taining novel, and "Ilimself His Own Eneuay" may be accepted by the fiction-loving public as a graphic- picture of times in waich figured the objjet of Pope's satire, when he.was desig nated an "the scorn aud wonder of our dttys." The literary style of this work is excellent, and Mr. llrotherhead is to be congratulated upon Lis attempt to becomw a producer as well as a dispenser of literature. Published by J. B. Lippincott & Co. "What I Know about Farming," by Horace Greeley, is a collection of the essays that have appeared with this title in the Tri lime, and which have been 'laughed at ex cetdingly by the irreverent who would have j it believed that what Mr. Greeley does not know about farming would be a more vliua ble contribution to agricultural literature. It is all very well to laugh at the philosopher with the white bat, but Mr. Greeley is a prac tical man; and, ai any one who will take the trouble to read a few chapters of the work before) us will discover, he knows considerable about farming that is well worth knowing. The werk is in Mr. Greeley's beat and meat readable style, ard it will prove a valaabl hand-book to those who are disposed to take the author's advice to flee from the cities and establish hvmta for themselves in the Par If est, or ierer they may be able to obtain possas hiou of eaoUpli ground to ret aliviogfroiu with Lcntbt industry. Published by G. W. Carle- ton A Co., and for sole in this city by J. 13. Lippinoott 4t Co. T. B. Peterson A Co. have just published a new and cheep edition of "The Knights of Gwynae," a tale of the Irish union, and a most interesting picture of Irish society at that period. Helen Freeman," by L.

The Athletics beat a picked nine of Trenton in that place yesterday afternoon. The play was sharp, the score standing 14 to 4. Domestic Affairs. In the Legislature of Pennsylvania there are now 1733 bills on the House file and 1723 on the Senate file. Nothing whatever has as yet been done by tbe Government concerning the enforce ment of tbe ivn klax Mil. Martin Worms, one of Jtfce three men or dered to be hanged at New Orleans on the 13th of May, ia a raviag maniac. The action taken in the State Legislature yesterday indicates the final adjournment of that body on the ICth inst. Alfred Greigenmeyer, who murdered an Irishman named Gatnblnten in America, has teen arrested in Germany and delivered to 1 dicers from the United States at the request of the American Government. Tbe miners of Scranton now have a new trouble, which does not come from their re rent employers, but from the oempetitien of their late "laborers," who now propose to mine coal at the company rates. The General Council of the W. B. A. met yesterday at Fottsville, and though but little was done, everything indicated local arbitration as the only means of bringing about a full and final resumption of mining cptrations. Foreign Affairs. The Iloumanian elections have resulted in favor of the Government. General Me try is ts be tried by a court- martial for abandoning Fort dTssy.
