NEW PUBLICATION’S. Tnstice cannot be done, in a newspaper notice! to the “Life and Correspondence of Theldore Parker,” 1-y John Weiss, recently published by Messrs. Appletoh & Co. Filling two large oc'avo volumes, of nearly 500 pages cacii, and closely printed, it.furnishes material for many essays. and reviews. Mr. a life was full of earnest labor, and his corres pondence, journals and other persona! writings are rich, in thought and suggestion. As .a thinker and writer on public questions, he was far in advance of most of his contemporaries; and his honest convictions as to the condition and prospects of our country, expressed as they ■are repeatedly in bis letters, appear now like prophecies fulfilled. For instance,inaletterto Senator Hale, dated Oct. 21st, 1856, a fac simile ofwhieb is contained in the w.ork before us, Mr. Parker said, “If Buchanan is President, I think the Union does not hold out his four years. It must end in civil war,' which I have been preparing for these six months past.” The versatility of Mr. Parker’s mind is strik ingly shown in his voluminous writings con tained in these volumes. Few men have treated so great a variety of topics with such originality and intelligence. His letters from abroad are especially attractive. But the whole work is full of interest, and we wish it could be uni* versally read, so that other minds should adopt his as a model and strive to resemble it, in earnestness at least. The copy we'have re ceived comes to us-through Messrs. Ashmead & Evans. Two bopks on the war in this country, writ ten by Englishmen and Southern sympathizers, have been published by John Bradbjjjn, of New York, and copies have reached us through Messrs. T. B. Peterson & Brothers apd James Chaflen-iSfijion, One is a small volume, called “Three Months in the Southern States: April- June, 1863,” by Lieut. Col. Frecmantle, Cold stream Guards. He entered this country at Brownsville, Texas, and came North in time to be-with Lee’s army in the invasion of Penn sylvania. The concluding part of his book ap peared last fall ih Blackwood. It gires an inte resting and quite a fair account of the battle of Gettysburg. The other book is a bulky octavo, called “Battle-Felds of the South, from Bull- Eun to Fredericksbur;” by an English Combat ant, Lieutenant of Artillery on the Field Staff. It is as bitter, unfair and prejudiced an account of the war as a South Carolinian could have written. We should commend it to Southern traitors, or to Northern Copperheads, if w.e thought we had any such among our readers. The Bev. S. I. Prime, an experienced and forcible writer, has just published a work entitled “Five Years of Prayer, with the Answers.” It is a religious history of the past five years, dating from near the beginning of “ the great revival” of 1857-8, and contains hundreds of incidents connected therewith or flowing from its results. Most of the facts are taken from addresses, prayers and letters to the Fulton Street Prayer Meeting, which has been kept -up daily for over five years, and they are told with much force : and earnestness. The work is an extremely valuable contribution to the religious-history of the period embraced, and will find thousands of readers. Harper & Brothers are the publishers. For sale by T. B. Peterson & Brothers.' “ Redeemer and Redeemed, an Investigation of the Atonement and of Eternal Judgment,” is the title of a new theological work, by Rev. Charles Beecher, published by Lee & Shepard, Boston, and for sal6 by J. B. Lippincott Sc Co. The author avows; his belief in the pre existence of souls, as set forth in the « Conflict of Ages” by his brother, Dr. Edward Beecher, and, taking that theory as his basis, he proceeds to consider in these pages “ the connection of the blood of Christ with the forgiveness of human sin.” He presents his views as the result of twenty years of mental conflict, and declares that he has found rest in them. We leave their critical discussion in purely theo logical hands. We have not faith that a inan, not a gentle' man- naturally or by training, can be made one in a few easy lessons'. - But others may differ from us, and to them we commend a book called “The Perfect Gentleman, or Eti quette and Eloquence,” published by Dick & Fitzgerald and sent to us by Peterson Sc Bro thers. It contains models of speeches for various occasions and by men of various pro fessions. Also models for toasts, rules for man ners at table, with instructions as to the art of giving dinners, and specimens of dinner-table talk and anecdote. We cannot say that these are very brilliant, but the book may amuse, if it does not instruct. * Of the recent military publications of Mr. Van Nostrand of New York,-we have received) through Messrs. J. B. Lippincott & Co., “Stra tegy and Tactics,” by General G. Hi Dufour and a practical treatise on “Rifled Ordnance,” by Lynall Thomas, F. R. S. L. General Du four is Chief of the General Staff of the Swiss Army, and a graduate of the Polytechnic School of France. His work is a recognized au tßority in Europe. It is translated by Captain Craighill, U. S. Engineers. Mr. Thomas’s work has gone through five English editions. It gives the results of all the experiments made with rifled guns by the English, and will be very useful. Count Gurowski has given to the world a second volume of his “ Diary ” concerning the war, embracing the period from November 1862, to October, 1863. It shows the same un--' bounded self-conceit that was so conspicuous in the first volume. In Gurowski’s opinion, there is nobody in the Unite!. States that has a particle of brains, for either military or polit cal work, except Gurowski, He abuses every body so indiscriminately that one can have but little confidence in his judgment concerning anyone. The book is for sale byAshmead& N Evans. • We have received through Messrs. Lippin- Cott & COy from Messrs. Little & Brown, of Boston, an elegantly printed volume called “The Umted States Sanitary Commission: a Sketch of its Purposes and its Works.” The contents of the volume are a compilation from documents and private papers. It gives a most interesting account of the work done by the Commission. It was written in aid of the great . fair held in Boston. Miss Evans, the author of “ Beulah,” has Written a new story called “ Inez: A Tale o $e Alamo,” published by John Bradbury New York, and for sale by 3 • B. Lippincott k Co. It will please roadors who like stories of Texas and Mexico, though we do not see that the style or tone of thought is any more mature than that of Beulah. . Three new numbers (68, 69 and7o) of Cham bers’s Encyclopaedia have been sent to us by the American publishers, Messrs. 3. P. Lip, pencott k Co. They bring it down almost to the close of the letter L, and we are glad to be able to say that the work as it progresses gives new proof of its excellence as a book of re ference. An extremely .interesting little work for Sunday Schools has just been published by the Presbyterian Publication Committee. It is entitled “Far Away; or, Life at Tanna and Samoa,” and it details the missionary efforts made to reclaim the South Sea Islands from heathenism, with much power. “ The Healing of the Nations” is the title ot a mystical work by Charles Linton, published by the author, and for sale at 25 South Sixth street.. The author inculcates views resembling the “quietists,” opposes war, slavery, &x. The book is remarkably well printed. MISSOURI ITEMS, West Point, Jackson county, near the Kan sas line, is said to have been burned by bush whackers on the 26th 'nit'. A citizen'.of Hannibal, whose slaves lately ran away, has since received from them a Bible, and the request that he “should read it regularly.” / Gentry county has furnished her quota of colored volunteers. Nearly all the able-bodied male blacks of the county started yesterday (Wednesday) morning for St. Joseph, in charge of Captain G. T. Kenyon, Assistant Provost Marshal. They passed out of town singing “Old John Brown” and the “Battle Cry of Freedom”—free men, on their way to fight oppression and wrong—and proudly con scious of the fact. How have • the mighty fallen ! Where are the men who throe years ago ruled here in the name of “Slavery,”’ and “Southern Eights,” and awed all their opposers with the cry of “Abolition?” Yesterday some of them looked smilingly on, “glad to be rid of the nigger.” He has come to be a thorn in their sides and a weapon in the hands of the Government, which it has learned to use to a good advantage. Verily, the world, moves on! —Grand River ( Albany ) News ‘2Bth. John C. Heenan’s Condition- We had a visit from Heenan on Friday, January 22, and were sorry to find that he was still suffering from severe illness. He has been so much re duced in weight that he now barely weighs twelve stone seven pounds. He declares that heyond the first two or three rounds of his match with King he has ne recollection what ever of any thing that took place, nor can he in any way account for the extraordinary fall ing off in his fighting. He felt on entering the ring fit to fight for his life, and he looked upon victory as a foregone con clusion; but in a very few minutes a giddi ness came over him, for which he cannot account, and beyond' this he remembers nothing at all, and he declares he has never felt the same man since. His looks on Friday cer tainly bore out his statement as to his health, and it will evidently require great care on his part to get himself round. lie intends paying a flying visit to Liverpool to-day; On Monday, January 25, his friends will give him a compli mentary benefit at Jem Myers’s Circus, which we trust will be a bumper, and after this he will return to London, where he intends to take a benefit—a thing he has never yet done —and he hopes thereby to raise sufficient funds to take a trip to some 'warmer climate for the renovation of his health Bell’s Life, Jan. 23. Damages Recovered Against a Railroad. —Miss Mary Ann Brown, of Robeson township, Berks county, last week recovered SB2-5 against the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com pany, under the following circumstances: The plaintiff with her father undertook to cross the track at the instant the morning train from Philadelphia reached a point in Reading where the street crosses the railr.oad. The wagon was struck by the locomotive, broken to pieces, the father somewhat injured, and the girl bruised about the face, and ene foot so severely lacer ated as to require the amputation of two bf the toes. The allegation of the plaintiff was that the engineer failed to give due warning of the approach of the train by sounding the whistle at the crossing, and quite a number of witnesses testified that they did not hear the whistle. Ten Witnesses examined for the defence swore that the whistle was sounded and ample notice given; The Question Settled.— A critic in the American Medical Times, published in New York, in a review of Dr. Woodward’s work on Camp Diseases, thus settles an important ques tion : “In the fatal diarrhoea of the camp, Dr. Woodward finds an analogous histological pro cess of morbid and degdherative cell-multipli cation preceding and attending upon the ulce rations that take their point d’appui from the “follicles of Lieberkuhn;” the connective tissue cells becoming rapidly multi-nucleated, go on “multiplying by division” until the intercellu lar spaces are encroached upon, and until folli cles and normal tissues ; are overwhelmed and broken down by a wasted and extravagant cell life, or hyperplasia of normal tissues, that ends in ulceration.” Singular Fatality.: —A few weeks ago, a returned soldier called at the residence of a family-in Saratoga county, N. Y., and sold his overcoat. The garment was taken and washed. The family at the time comprised eight mem bers,' a husband and wife and six grown up children, four sons and two girls. In the course of a few days the whole family was stricken with disease. Father and one son died, and were buried on the same day. Two sons soon after died, and were buried at one funeral. The fourth son died shortly after, and a daugh ter. The last son was buried, last week. “"The mother and surviving daughter have been low with the same disease. The disease was fever, and it is believed to have been yellow fever. The Senatorial Vacancy. —The Indiana County American contains the order issued to . the Sheriff of that county by Speaker Penney, ‘ directing him to call a special election on the nineteenth of February, to fill the vacancy occa sioned by the resignation of Major Harry White. The members of 'the Union County Committee of Indiana are to meet on Monday next, to select Conferees to meet those from Armstrong county. - A Family Poisoned by Eating Diseased Ham. —For the last three weeks the family of Mr. Flaig, 46 Elizabeth street, New York, con sisting of five persons, have been very ill from the effects of eating portions of a ham contain ing immense numbers of insects. By the ad ministration of proper antidotes several mem bers of the family have partially recovered; one, however, has died and others are still quite sick. , Invalid Soldiers.— Col. Rafferty, State Agent at Washington, has obtained an order from the Acting Surgeon General for the transfer to. Newark, of all Jerseymen in the Hospitals of Baltimore, Annapolis and Wil mington, who will not be fit to return to duty within thirty days. —Trenton True American. /'IHOCOLATE.—WALTER BAKER Se OO.'S \J Chocolate: Cocoa and Broma; single, double |£d triple Vanilla: also, Orid Cocoa and Cocoa Si e aS.^lf orettn “ )r S^ alo,, yi WM> & USANT, 1W South aware Wharves.
