31EW PUBLICATIONS. "Principles of Education," by Miss Se wall, is a most valuable' treatise upon the Whole subject of the female education of the higher classes of society. Miss Sewall of course treats this most important subject from an English point of view, which will not appeal at once, in all particulars, to the pre-conceived ideas of American parents. But there is so much sound sense and prac tical wisdom in Miss Sewall's views that we cannot but regard the volume as a most valuable additional to the higher grade of educational literature. The authoress, has derived the inspiration for her very respon sible work from a long and intimate expe rience in the matter of female education, and there is an'earnest enthusiasm throughout the volume which, of itself, constitutes a bigh commendation. The American edi tion is published in one volume, by D. Ap pleton dc Co. For sale by. Ash mead Evans. Ashmead • & Evans have also received from D. Appleton & Co. an autobiography of Mrs. L. H., Sigourney. At seventy years of age, New England's poetess yielded to the suggestions of an intimate • friend, and under- tirs-qitle of "Letters of Life," pre pared a most interesting sketch of her long, and icifitifiity very beautiful career. Since her death the work has been completed by the loving hands of a daughter, and is now , t • presented to the public. The volume is a very,attractive one, giving us an insight of Mrs. Sigourney's educational and literary career, which covered a period of fifty rears, and embodying many of her sweetest poems. A fine engraving of the authoress accompanies the work. "Stories told to a Child" is the title of an exceedingly pretty little volume of chil dren's stories, by Jean Ingelow, just pub lished by Roberts Brothers, Boston. While Arias Ingelow keeps us hungering and thirst ing for more of her sweet songs, she seems to have devoted herself to the little ones, and in this channel we find the same bright, pure, sparkling thoughts running through every page -that have made Jean Ingelow the heiress of Mrs. Browning's crown. It only needs the announcement of a new pro duction of her pen, to make it at once popu lar. "Stories told to a Child" is gotten up in a very beautiful "green and gold" style and is profusely illustrated. For sale by A ainnead & Evans. D. Appleton tk.Co. have just published "The Origin of the:War," by George Lunt, of Boston. Mr. Lunt's ideas about the war are in accord with those of. Henry S. Foote, and the effort is elaborately made to estab lish the pet pro-slavery notion that the burden of responsibility must be nicely ad- justed between the North and South. Mr. "tint's work will be very acceptable at the South, and also among Sonthern sympa thisers at the North. For sale by Ashmead 491 ` sk Evans, • "The Joiner and Cabinet-Maker."

BAILEY'S READINGS.—At Concert Hall, next Monday evening, Prof. Mark Malley, of Yale College, will give a series of admirable 'readings. In speaking of him, :• the Princeton 'Standard says : "We cannot .. allow this exhibition of such talent in the 14ocntiontri7" and histrionic arts, to pass with a notice of the most decisive tone. We bour4 to say that this performance was Iritiebrifiteupr to anything of the kind which we have ever witnessed. Prof. Bailey is the ' • 10110 perforther whom we have seen in this line, who did 'not overdo his work - in the ! xnatter of represepting dramatic thoughts, or producing passages of high eloquence. On the quite various range of his reading and recitations' all seemed natural and easy, as .r *ll was effective, and, according as it was grave or gay, productive of the effect in , tended." f e. 4 I 4im v ram REMOVAL OF .

M., and closing them at suri set. It is claimed that this measure will prevent a great deal of fraud at elections, as in Camden and other cities the polls hereto fore have been kept open until 8 o'clock in the evening, thus giving an opportunity for the commission of frauds. The law takes effect immediately, and, if the Governor gives it his signature in time, it will affect the present election in Camden, closing the polls at sun-down. NEEDS REPAIRING.—There are many of the sidewql Fl along the streets in Camden which need repairing, for they present dan gerous man-traps, and persons who may be injured, can claim damages from the city. The authorities, therefore, ought to see that such places are remedied. There is •greater attention given to less dangerous places, and some care ought to be exhibited in these. FATAL RESULT.-Mr. Reynolds, who was so dangerously and severely scalded about ten days ago, at the box manufactory of Mr. Leonard Repshur, in consequence of the drum-head to the boiler blowing out and throwing boiling water over him, died this morning from the effects of the injuries received. Another gentleman was badly burned at the same time, although not dan gerously. Accinris - r.—A day or two since a man in Bridgeton named Eli Long, was dangerously injured in consequence of a pair of colts he was driving running away. He was drag ged a considerable distance after the car riage had become upset. REVIVAL —Au interesting revival of reli gion is in progress in the different churches at Woodstown, Salem county, and is at tended with good results BENEFITS Tuts EVENlNO.—Three of the theatres are dedicated to the benefits of able, prominent and successful stars. At the Arch Mr. Chanfrau, who has made so great a hit in "Sam," presents his claims. They will be honored to the full, as ever since this piece has been running the house has been crowded to the utmost. In addi tion to enacting the hero of "Sam," Mr. Chanfrau will appear as Clip, in "The Widow's Victim," with his astonishing imitations of various popular actors; This is, "you know," the last night of "Sam," and to-morrow night is the farewell night of Chanfrau and the other able artists who accompanied him on his visit to this city. At the Walnut the inimitable Clarke takes his farewell benefit, appearing in "The Toodles" and "Everybody's Friend. - We do not consider that Mr. Clarke's versatile genius is best shown in these pieces, but the public does. We prefer to look forward to to-morrow night, when Clarke will give us his unrivalled, nay unequalled, personation of Robert Brierly in the "Ticket-of-Leave Man." It is in such characters as these that Mr. Clarke's power is most fully dis played, though we would not underrate the fun he exhibits in his Dromios,Tony Lump kins, Waddiloves, Paul Prys, De Bootses, and so forth. At the Chestnut we have Mordaunt's benefit to-night,the plays being "Don Caesar de Bazan" and "Ireland as it Was," with, for interlude, a patriotic poem to be recited by Mr. Mordaunt. Mrs. Mor daunt will appear as Judy O'Trot, in "Ire land as it Was," and the full strength of the company will be out in both pieces. Of course there will be a remarkably finehonse to recognize the merits_ of this very p3wer ful actor. AT THE AMERICAN a very excellent bill of its kind will be given this evening. AT NATIONAL HALL the Old Folks are drawing good houses. AT ASSEMBLY BUILDING we still have Signor Blitz and "The Sphynx." THE GERMANIA ORCHESTRA Will give their usual public rehearsal to-morrow after noon, with the following programme: I—Overture—ltaliani in Alert Rossini 2—Romance from William Tell Rossini 3—Maskenbilder Waltz. Lanner 4—A n dmste from Jupiter Symphony Mozart 6—Overture—Calm 'Sea and Happy Voyage. Mendelssohn ti—Erl Ring (by request) F. Schubert 7—Selection from Don Sebastian Donizetti A Kentuckian Endorsement of President President Johnson was waited on yester day morning by a delegation of Ken tuckians, who presented the proceedings of a mass meeting held in Frankfort, indors ing his veto. At the same time they com plained of the continuance of military rule in Kentucky and of the operations of the Frebdmen's Bureau, declaring that the people of Kentucky and the laws of the State, if left to themselves, would secure the negro in all his rights of person and property; and there are more cases of wrong by negroes upon white persons in the State which go unpunished by.the civil authori ties, than of wrongs by white persons against tiegroes. The spokesman of the party said, in con clusion, that these things, deemed by them as grievances, have been born with patience and comparative silence, because of the con fidence they repose in your sense of justice and veneration for. the fundamental and statute laws of the land. They have been aware of the overshadowing matters of im portance which have been pressing upon your time, and have waited, confident in the belief that when "the fulness of time" shall have fully ,come you will "un roll the Constitution," which will remedy all these evils. They trust that time is not far distant, nay t is even now. REPLY OF THE PRESMENT, President Johnston responded in sub stance:— It is not needful that a formal or extended reply to what you have said should be made. I tender you; and through you the people whom you represent, and of the State, my unfeigned thanks for these kind expres sions and manifestations of confidence in me personally, and the endorsement of the policy which shall control my administra. tion. It is peculiarly gratifying to receive these assurancesat ON particular time. I trust the results will show that the confi dence thus reposed is not misplaced, and will never become a matter of regret upon the part of those who give expression there to. The present is regarded as a most criti cal juncture in the affairs of the nation New Jersey Matters. AM USE3IE NTS. Johnnson. scarcely less so than when an organized force sought to overthrow the Government. To attack and attempt to disrupt the GO vernment by armed dombination and mili tary force, is no more dangerous to the life of the nation than an attempt _to revolu tionize and undermine it by a disregard and 'destruction of the safeguards thrown around the liberties of the people. In the Constitu.t tion my stand hai been taken; my coarse is marked out. I shall stand by and defend the Constitution against all who may Atte& it from whatever quarter the attack may come. I shall takS no step backward in the matter. No other or higher evidence of my purpose in this regard can be given than has already been furnished. In the future, as in the,past, I shall en deavor in good faith to make the adminis tration of the affairs of the Government conform to the Constitution in its letter and spirit; therein is the only guarantee to the liberties' of the people. It is hoped by an adherence to this rule to remedy ere long all the irregularities and annoyances to which the people have been subjected. Again do I assure you that these demon strations of. confidence and assurances of support upon the part of the people are ex ceeuingly cheering to me, that I am grateful for and properly appreciate them, and that my wish is to so discharge the trusts con fided to me as to merit them. I need not say more at present. From Washington. WASHINGTON, March B.—The Commis sioner :of Internal Revenue, in reply to a letter in relation to the stamp duty on a subscription paper where the subscribers each agreed to take stock in a railroad com pany, has decided that such subscription, unless the sum subscribed is paid when the list is signed, is held to create a promise to nay a definite and certain sum of money, and, therefore, each person signing his name and not paying his subscription at the time should affix and cancel a stamp appropriate to a promissory note of the amount sub scribed. If a person signs the list and pays the subscription at thp time, his signing the paper would be a mdre memorandum, and as such would not be subject to stamp duty. If a subscription list is made in such a form as that the subscribers bind themselves to pay only in the event of a certain amount being raised, then each signature is held to form an agreement or contract, and as such subject to a stamp duty of five cents. But if each signer agrees to pay uncondi tionally, then each creates a new instru ment subject to a stamp duty as a promis sory note. Quartermaster-General Meigs has issued another pamphlet containing the names of ,oldiers, victims of the rebellion, buried in oe National Cemetery at Alexandria, Va. The total number of the interments are? white, 3,372; colored, 229—total, 3,601. Well kept gravel walks tranverse the grounds. The graves have been sodded, and white tablets, lettered in black, are placed at the ead of eacb, giving the name, rank, regi went, and datel of death. General Meigs has directed the officers of i be Quartermaster's Department to make a special report to that office of the location i•nd condition of cemeteries known to them, with recommendations of the means neces 'aiy to provide for the preservation of the -mains interred their from desecration. It appears from the Februarj , report of the superintendent of Schools, Bureau of Refu ges, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands for t..e Department of Washington, that there : - e forty-three colored schools, 4,249 pupils, n.ore than three-fourths of whom can read. Le number of scholars in Alexandria city t. 1,200. There are a few day and night *4•itools not reported. The cases now in argument before the I. sited States Supreme Court, involving the listitutionality of military commissions, Milligan, Bowels and Hersey being the pe wionera, attract large audiences, both from tie interest of the subject and the eminent c , .unsel engaged. The House has instructed the Judiciary Committee to prepare a bill establishing State Agencies for the payment of soldiers' c aims without charge; the cost of main taining them to be paid out of the national Treasury. Ex-Governor Graham, of North Carolina, it is said, sent a note to the Committee on Reconstruction, asking that in the axamina non of witnesses respecting the affairs of that State, he may have the opportunity of cross-examining them. The House Committee on Foreign Rela tions has determined to hear arguments from the friends of the Mexican Republic in behalf of the joint resolution guarantee ing the payment of the Mexican bonds. Colonel McKim, who has been in charge of the Quartermaster's duties at Philadel phia since February, 1565, has resigned his commission in the army to accept a very responsiblevivil position, and the re-instate ment of General Crosiman is to fill the vacancy created by Colonel McKim's de parture. Fire at. Titusville, Pa.—Loss 8100,000 TITUSVILLE, Pa., March S.—A fire Broke out last evening in :the stable of J. V. Rib ble, on Franklin street. It spread with great fury east to Arch and south to Water street, destroying an entire block of fifteen buildings in number, among which was the Manor House building, occupied mostly as clothing stores, shoe stores and livery sta bles. The loss is estimated at $100,000: in s nrance $25,000. the Maryland Legislature and the Presi dent. BALTIMORE, March S.—The Committee of the Maryland Legislature headed by Speaker Frazier, had an interview with President Johnson to-day, to present the resolutions adopted indorsing his reconstruction policy. The President made a brief reply, referring to and reiterating his previous declaration in regard to reconstruction. GEORGIA. - A correspondent of that highly " conservative" journal the New York Journal of Commerce writes : Our people are pushing ahead with, I may say, crippled energies, as fast as circum- stances will admit, in matters of public in terest in the State, as well as in the pursuits of business. Mercantile business is, I think, much too far in advance of husbandry to be successful, for a time at any rate. Too many goods in some localities for the de mand, at least for the ready cash, which is a scarce commodity in some parts. Farmers generally are wheeling into the now system. The freedmen are working very well. True there are many complaints, some of them justly so, but I am of the opinion that many complaints about the freedmen arise from the want of intelligence in the negro, more than to other collateral causes. In many sections of our State the smallpox is prevailing, and in some localities is proving quite a scourge. In our town we have lost several valuable c itizens. I very much fear, unless precau tionary measures are speedily adopted, it will- be wide spread in our State. Our planters, for the most part, have made ar rangements to plant largely in cotton, but the decline in the staple for We last month, added to the scarcity of grain and the pros pective high freights from the West,have in duced them to change their plans. Con sequently, as it should be, corn will be planted, enough, I trust for consumption. GROVER & BAKER'S IMPROVED SHUTTLE OR "LOCH" STITCH SEW ING &c.
