Ji E Y I E W OF NEW BOOKS.
The following recent publications of
G. W. Carleton A Co. are for Bale in this city
by Torter & Coates.
"A Lost Life," by Emily C. Moore, who
has obtained some reputation as a story
writer under the nom de plume of "Migno
nette," is an ably-written but particularly un
pleasant narrative of an aggravated case of
domestic misery, such as the women's rights
advocates love to harp upon for the purpose
of showing how the feminine portion of hu
manity is obliged to suffer at the hands of
tyrant men. The heroine of "A Lost Life"
allows her brute of a husband to kill one of
her children and to beat another one nearly
to death without taking any vigorous steps to
protect herself, but finally the blow of a
switch across her own face induces her to fly
from home, and to seek to earn her own liv
ing in a distant city. A very proper course
of action for her to take, in our opinion, and
we freely hand the chief offender in the
case over to the tender mercies of Woodhull,
Claflin & Co., feeling assured that their expe
rience in the matter of husbands will enable
them to do it full justice. A very interesting
young clergyman figures prominently in the
story, who even goes so far as to make love
to the ill-used wife. To Miss Moore's credit,
however, her heroine does not encourage his
advances, and even refuses to marry him
after her husband has procured an Indiana
divorce. It is not quite certain, however,
whether this refusal is based upon an opinion
that such a proceeding would be improper, or
upon the fact that the dominie had already
transferred a portion of his affections to
another woman. There are many trivial
details which obstruct the current of the
story, but, on the whole, it is well written,
and some of the characters are described
with much skill.
"The Empty Heart; or, Husks," and "For
Better or Worse," are a couple of entertain
ing stories by Marian Harland, bound in one
volume. This writer, without taking the
highest rank among the female novelists of
the day, has well-deserved claims upon the
regards of her readers. Her plots are con
structed with skill, and her stories, although
bordering at times upon what for convenience
we may call the "sensational,'.' are interesting
and will repay perusal.
"Millbank," by Mary J. Holmes, is, like .the
other novels of the same writer, a story of
domestio life, in which there are some excel
lent contrasts of character, much quiet
humor, and a skilful weaving of compara
tively unimportant incidents into a plot of
considerable interest. Miss Holmes' stories
always point an excellent moral and "Mill
bank," her latest production, may be read
with pleasure and profit.
"The Loving Ballad of Lord Bateman,"
with illustrations and notes by George Cruik
ehank, which Carleton &. Co. has reprinted,
is a piece of comedy which derives its chief
value, as many more important works before
it have done, from the illustrations and notes
aforesaid, which are in the immortal Cruik
shank's best manner.
"Papers for Home Beading," by Eev.
John Hall, D. D., the Scotch-Irish pastor of
the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, New
York, is the title of a collection of short sto
ries and essays, each of which points a Chris
tian moral. These papers have been selected
from a magazine edited Borne years age in
Ireland by Dr. Hall, and, with one exceptien,
they have not been published before in this
country. Dr. Hall is an eloquent and
earnest writer, and the volume before ns will
receive a cordial weloome from many Chris
tians who know the author by reputation,
and who admire his character and talents.
The volume is adorned by a fine portrait of
Dr. Hall. For Bale by Claxton, Iiemsen &
Haffelfinger. 1
"Studies in Literature" by G. W. Griffin,
second edition, published by Claxton, Bern
sen & Haffelfinger, is the title of a series of
essays by one of the editors of the Louis
ville Journal on "George D. Prentice,"
"Vathek," "Victor Hugo," "Edwin Booth as
'Hamlet and as 'Macbeth,'" "Percy Bysshe
Shelley," "David Garrick," "Dante," "The
Scarlet Letter," "Janauschek," several of
Shakespeare's plays and other similar topics.
These essays are fair average newspaper crit
icisms, reviews, and dissertations, but they
are scarcely profound enough, elaborate
enough, or, to speak plainly, good enough for
the use that has been made of them in the
present instance. Newspaper writers do them
selves and their profession great injustice
when they attempt to transfer their hastily
penned comments from the place where they
belong, and where they are appreciated at
their true value, to the pages of a book, where
elegance of diction and fine analysis are look
ed for by the only class of readers such a vol
ume as the one before us is likely to interest.
Mr. Griffin's essays are neither better nor
worse than thousands of others that appear
every day in the journals of the country, and
they say very little that has not been better
said on many previous occasions.
"Two Books," by Mrs. C. E. K. Davis,
published' by Henry Hoyt, gives the diaries
of two good little girls, who are very good
indeed, and whose comments upon them
selves and things in general will be, or ought
to be, appreciated by all good children. For
eale by J. B. Lippincott & Co.
"Christian Doctrine Studied in the order
of the Protestant Episcopal Church Cate
chism," by Jobhua Dixon, is a new edition of
a work which has been decidedly popular as a
Sunday-school manual. It has been edited,
by C. YV. Andrews, D. D., who has added a
series of Lessons for Bible-classes, which will
increase its usefulness. For Hale at ttie
ffice for the sale of the Leighton pub
lications, No. 1225 Sansoin street.
"Paralysis, and other Affections of the
NerveB," by George V. Taylor, M. D., pub
lished by Samuel B. Wells, is a description
cf the various pw&lytio diseases, and oi Dr.
Tajlors vibratory" and movement cure, which
has been successfully used in many instances.
For sale by J. B. Lippincott A Co.
"A System for Beginners in the Art of
rinying upon the riano-forte," by William
Mason and E. S. Hoadley, published by Oliver
Ditson A Co., is a praotical method which
carries the learner on by easy stages, but
which insists upon thoroughness. The diffi
culties in the wny of good performance are
successively met and overcome, and each
point is explained with great clearness, the
most exact directions being given for the as
sistance of both teacher and pupil. This work
will doubtless become a favorite with those
who wish to learn the art of piano-forte
playing.
The publishers of the Ilistorical Magazine
have, apropos of the ratification of the Treaty
of Washington, issued an "extra," which con
tains their elaborate review of the recent ad
dress en "American Neutrality" by Mr.
Charles Francis. Adams, with a carefully pre
pared sketch of the foreign policy adopted by
the Continental Congress, and which was
overturned by Hamilton and his followers.
SAD AFFAIR.
A Young Man Kill Himself in the Pre
sence of Ilia Alllauccil.
The Washington Patriot of Saturday has
the following;:
About 7-80 o'clock last night a young man
named William 8. Brooke, about thirty-three
years of age, shot and killed himself in the
second-story of a house on Eighth street, one
door below the Calvary Baptist Church.
A young woman named Julia Burke, who, it
seems, is a seamstress lu the house where the
act was committed, was in the room at the time.
It is stated that she was engaged to be married
to Brooke; that he had called upon her, and that
she had remonstrated with him on having been
Indulging to excess in liquor, when he exclaimed
that he had nothing now to live for, and, ac
cording to the statement of Miss Burke, imme
diately pulled a Derringer pistol from the right
pocket of his pantaloons, held it up to his right
temple, and fired, the ball penetrating the right
temple and producing death In about an hour
after the shot was fired. Miss Burke says she
was engaged to marry Brooke, and exhibited,
in corroboration of the statement, an engage
ment ring on her finger.
On being questioned, Miss Burke stated that
she has resided in Washington about four years,
and that she is a seamstress by occupation, and
that Brooke has been in the habit of visiting her
frequently in her work-room in the second story
of the house. She says that when he came last
night he stated thai on the first of the month he
was going to swear off drinking forever.
He asked her to kiss him, and said he was try
ing to taper off. lie ordered and drank several
glasses of lemonade while be sat talking to her.
Mies Burke is a fine-looking woman, appa
rently about twenty-five years of age. with
regular features, black eyes, and dark hair,
whick hangs in waves around her neck and
shoulders. She conversed freely about the
suicide, and exhibited little or no agitation when
she stood in the door and looked upon the face
of the dead man.
