    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.
