    NEW PVBLICATIOPS•
John E. Potter & Co., have published Mr. .Em
croon Bennett's "Phantom of the }rest." . I t
way be fairly doubted whether any or the Count
less followers of James Fennlmora,o oper have
done more than produce imitations kir his Indian.
novels, of greater or less degreea At Imperfection.
And this is the result not so ranch &the inability
of the writers as of the extreme narrowness of
the peculiar field of Indian romance. There is
nothing new to be said about Indian life
or savage warfare or border habits. The author
who goes over:this well-gleaned field salon finds
that eten the original' &Oriel ittatertal r Was
enough. The same elements 'enters into all this
.ciase of more recent novels. Scalps'and ttima
tiaWkii superlmman sagacity and brutal creolV,
.wonderful marksmen and More wonderful sap=
tive maidens with whom• all the male se,
tors are frantically in love, a few half 4
breeds, a friendly Indian, a torture Or
two, escapes and .recaptures, 'and very ' ranch
border slang. It is easy to see that out of this
sort of material original novels must be soon ex
hausted, and ,It is no disparagement to Mr.
Emerson Bennett to say that he has not intro
duced into the "Phantom of the Forest" any,
thingtut the material which is so familiar to all
readers of Indian novels, for there is absolutely
no other, material to be used from that
overworked field. Messrs. ,Ino, E. Potter
Co., have gotten the book oat , handsome
style. .
G. W. Pitcher has received froth Lee & Shepard;
Boston, another instalment dr-,Mm books.
"Tommy Ilickup" another, of the rattling little
series of "Rosa Abbott Stories" which take one's
breath away with their "head-over-heels" style; ,
and delight the children with their liveliness:
"Seek and Find" is another of the "Oliver Op
tic books, and a sequel; to "Breaking Avsiayi"
recently published. , Oliver Optic Is perliaps the
best of our American writers for boys . ,. and his
name is becoming as well•known throughout, the
United States as the original Peter Parley
self "Seek'and Find" is a story of "The .A.dven
tures of a Smart Boy," and the smart boys will
all want to read it.
"Claudia," is a new story by Amanda M.
Douglas, whose "In Trust,' Published last spring,
was so favorably received. "Claudia" is - rather a
stormy sort of love-story, abounding in violent
emotions and startling situations. It's occasional
extravagances in this direction detract somewhat
from its-literacy-merits, but it,is still one of those
books that people will be sure to finish, when
they have once taken it up.
J. B. Lippincott Co., have published a story
that will be sure to have a wide circulation. It
is a story of the famous London Fire Brigade,
and Is called "Fightingl the'Flames." It is by R.
M. Ballantyne, who has written a number of
lively books, based upon the coaStlquard service,'
the light-house service, and timilar topics. Few-
subjects are more exciting than that, of fires,
with all their, Bair-breadth , escapes, dashing
achievements', and perilous - incidents, 'and
" Fighting the Flames" will be a welcbme guest
in a much wider circle than meritorious in
stitntion for the - extinguishment of 'firefi," as
Sheriff War, once called the. Philadelphia fire
,
men. The volume is, of course, handsomely
printed, hound, and illustrated. ,
.
" Golden Truths l ' is an exquisttely-printed
volume of a religious character,' containing
choice extracts, in, prose and poetry,-classified
under the 'divisions of "The „Inner Life ; Trials
by the Way.; Work for Christ ;•. The tinfailing
Friend, and The Heavenly Home." The compiler
has drawn upon the best sources forher extracts,
such as~ FenelOn, Robertson, Trench, Gonlhurn,
'Guthrie, Tholuck, Huntington, Chalmers,
in prose; tui'd Bonar, Faber, Ingelow, Lowell,
Procter, Waring, Whittler and many othem
poetry. Tie velume is filled with lofty and holy
thoughts - and teachinge, and will be highly prized
as an addition to the peculiar class of literature
to whichit belongs.
Roberts Brotberg, Boitim, have just published
"Friendships of i Women" by William Rounse
vile Alger, +We' have already made copious ex
tracts from' this It is unique in its de

interesting one.: It is for iale by G. W. Pitcher.
,
Hurd ST, Houghton, ;slew:York, have published
a humorous poima, by• Edward Hopper, called
"One Wife ToO Many; or Rip Van Bighorn." It
is quite art elaborate composition, Irvingescirie in
its conception. and. very sprightly in its compo.:
sition. Its moral IS thus told:
"And let all. teen be eure of thief.— •
That,for the happiest life .

The 'Speaker yesterday laid befOre the 'House
a message from the President of the United
States, , inelosing a communication from the
Secretary of State, together with the following
letter from George A. Sharpe, dated Kingston,
New Yoilc;JOly, 1867. ,
Iron. ;Valiant 11, Seward, Secretary of State :
Stu: In' the month of January ' last :I left for
Europe, reirsuant to instructions from the State
Department, in which I was told that there might ,
be reason to'apprefiend that eitizetill of the United
States in Europe, other than those who had here
tofore been; suspected, or charged with the of
fence, were, instigators of, or concerned in the as
sassination of the late President Lincoln, and the .
attempd assassination of the Secretary of State, ,
It; was deemed proper, in connection , with the
antivippta trial of John IL Stara% to make an ,
effort to identify such persons, and it was made
Any duty to examine any evidence existing abroad,
so that.the government might judge whether or
not thalethand the Surrender of any persons in
Effr9Pe.i - : ' ', ,•::: :I: , • ,' '''''4'f.A ,
' lMyottentiort was drawn t o the :clreumstance,
already, Aoveloped, that the cOnspirators had
'.made Tee' of considerable sums of money in
barveling,le and front Canada and elsewhere in
the payof 'the Confederates; in provldin,g moans
of retreat and refuge;; in, the hire of horse s' and
boats, an d In liberal ,expenditures throughout
the lott#Treparation and execution of the plot.
These moneys,which must have 'amounted in
the eggregate to large sums, wore furnished to
them in gold, at a time when it was very diffi
cult for private: IndiViduals to,obtaiu it, and when
oven official persona es demanded es omitted its employment,
unless imperatively demand for the use of the
~
government. - , , •
It was further hoped that, u pon the indictment
of Serrate such papers and evidence might bo
brought forward as would tend to direct inquiries
in Europe .-• ,
On my arrival in England ,I thought it best to
make an alert to learn If Surratt had communi
cated with the leading Rebels there, or on the
Continent, on his way to, the Papal States. Sur
ratt reached Liverpool September 27, 1865, and
on. Saturday, September 80, he left for London
!nib° Wile A. M. train, arriving at the Easton
Square Station at two P. M. Atter following out .
the working of a municipal' regulation which
controls a portion of the London cubs, it was
I thought that a clue was obtained to the particu
lar cab which took Surratt as a-, passenger upon
the arrival of the train. •, .- • .
I The owner of the cab reforthd to was found,
w'•
• but was an old man, prostrated with •a serious
lingering disease, from which he did not recover
during my stay in London. and was incapa,
eitated from recalling the incidents. To pro
mote the search. a patient investigation was given
to all circumstances tending to throw light on
Surratt's' connection with rebels known to be in
London at, the time, and through letters from
Mr. Adams, I was broueht into communication
with our Consuls at London and Liverpool, from
whom as well as Mr. Moran, Secretary. of Lega-.
lion, and some American gentlemen long resident
abroad, every assistance was received, so that it
is believed every fact was inquired into, which
had any significance under my instructions.
' This examination 'failing td disclose any state
'of facts deemed sufficiently well established, or
of sufficient.importance to bring to the knowl
edge Of the Department; my attention was
turned to the manner in , which Barrett entered
the Papal Statob. in Order to learn whether his
flight there was through the procurement of any
person or citizen of •the United States. An in
quiry having been made ot the British Foreign
Office, it was learned that on October 12th, 1865,
application was there made for a passport for
John Watson, of .Edinburgh, over the signature
of,,the country manager of a banking institution
in London, and on the following day, October
•13th, 1805, the passport was issued. •
There were several circumstances about this
which led .me, to inquire into it. One was that
after •Surratt'a arrival in London, the name he
I used was the ono under which he enlisted in the
Papal Zonaves, and the, directors of the bank
4 under whose auspices the application was made,
included some of the most notorious rebel syin
pathizerti In England. It was fair to auppose,
therefore ' that Surratt had gone under another
'name, us he would have less facilities for chang
ing the , one chosefffor, a passport, and that he
enlisted under the name by which he
'entered the States of the Church. • ,
With this probability, that his passport was ob
tained at the British Foreign 011ich and that the
influence - which procured it could bo traced, an
examination was made at Edinburg . where fi ve
John Watsons were found, one of w hom proved
to be the person who received the passport of
Oct, 13, 1865, which was seen and verified. This
incident is briefly detailed in order to show the.
proper reasons for the time occupied. As in other
instances, care bad to be taken that no wrong
. should be done and no suspicion" raised unless
justified by the result.
, On the. 16th. of April I left London. and pro
ceeded direct to Rome, bearing a note of intro
ductiori frcm Mr. Adams to General King, with
whom and: Mr: Hooker I consulted. Gen. King
introdased me informally, Jo Gen. Kansler, the
Papal Minister of War, with whom I had further
intercourse, and during this I requested that I
might be, permitted to see any papers or effects
left by Surratt. • •
General Kaneler eAused'a search to be made,
and haforiped me that, Barrett loft, no papers,
having hi all probability destroyed such as lie
had the tithe of his discovery, of pen. King's
letter to St Marie. Surratt left no e ff ects. Re
was Obligedo by a Military regulation, to &pose
of bis citizen's apparel on entering therservice, to
prevent iiicility for desertion—a regulation which
I in the end contributed, to his identification and
arrest. , , , , ,
Gen. Kiinaler also caused I s,' search to be made
for the original passport by which Surratt entered
the Roman States, and noon its production and
my request to take d e'opy, he' offered to deliver
the original - to me, his office retaining a dopy.
The etrer was aceepted, and!the tassport'subse
quEntly for Warded to the, State Department. • •
•/t may not be improper for me to add that my
,interviews with Gen. Kansler were at the War
Office,and that' his instructions to his Italian
suberdinateii and the repines from them were
`made; in 'ray preseut:o, with: the etrou*est evi

, November 19, Isra.
sot I beg to inform the Department of an extra
' ordinary occurrence, prOeuelng mach siemees, edd e e
took phiCe hi tiile rturber yesterday afternoon. The
• weather was ell•ar, thotteh extrereery hot; barolfreter
.:10; whilst wilting in toy cabin, about halt-past is p.
•-my att cation wan called by a sadden tremor seizing the
•••tebip, Inerearring in inieneity, accompanied by a round
reneinbi Mg the groundieg of a vessel Hp.)ll a rough
hasten then gradually cubsitling unti, It ceneede the
whole lasting about two minutes. I recognized it Im
mediately an an enrthq Flake, and looking towards the
fell n , saw from the dust, and confusion' there had been
destruction among its buildings.
it was now over, I resumed illy Melt
panel', arid had been seated parent ten minutes when
the report was brought to me that the sea outside of
the harbor had rine,' and was coming In huge volume,
as it to engulf us all,. I went on deck, and here the
extmordleary epeetacie of it heavy etveltof tea, some
tweet:sleet-in height. apparently distant about three
tulles, coming towards I`e harbor with terrible power.'
"Vire •second author was immediately dropped; men
were sent to the helm, which was all we could do, and
then stood prepared to meet it. As It advanced with a
skirmish of tumultuous rollers to front, eats , with
some comfort that it came front abont S. S. W., and
would. consequently, strike the entrance of the harbor
in an oblique direction.
With a feeling of awe we awaited its arrival. It came
rushing on. tumbling ever the reeks that funned the
-entrance, carrying everything , before it. ',A .
steamer runt vessel - that Were trying to get in
were at once engulfed and never again seen, and the
vessels at anchor near the entrance were lifted from
their moorings arid carried on to the rocks to lee
ward. Receiving the check the heavy rollers swept
into harbor the liesota, which,?, anchored oUtelde of.
us and lying rather - broadside to, was carried from
her moorings, both chales snepplug, and thrown upon
the iron piles of a new wharf lately constructed; the
next roller swept her -off into deep water again, and
soon she made Plena' ehe was leaking. In the mean
while. however, wo had risen upon the rollers which
we met nearly stern on, encountering three in eucces
' Mon, the anchor andeihairee holding on bravely.
• The sea was now rushing in receding with great
vlslenee. The sunken.wrecks were rising. The ship
ping In the harbor, swept from their mooring, were
.:owing into us every few minutes. The email craft in
shore were lilted up and thrown Into the street and
left stranded, Alone the water front boats were cap
sized, and men in the water swimming for their lives.
At last the water in the bay subsided into a sort of
whirlpool, and so soot, as we could with ally safety
• man our boats, they weresettt to the rescue of drown
ing men, several were picked tip, one already dead.
Tire De boto was now adrift,. whirling about the
harbor, her pumps going, and getting up her steam
as rapidly as possible. I went on board of her, and
found she could keep here& free and with her steam
op, and two kedges dowit, she would remain in safety
for the night. Constant shocks of earthquakes Oc
curred every ten and fifteen minutes, and so continued,
with more orletti severity, through the night, anti as
I am now writing this is still going on.
The damage on shore has been far more ruinous to
the merchants than that occasioned by the late hurri
cane. The first heavy . roller went up into the town,
swamping the atoms, which were mostly on the bay
point, floating out andlinally stranding their goods in
unheard of directions. The panic that seized the in
habitants was painful, rushing up the hillside, crying
for mercy and listening to no attempt topacify then.
As I went ashore in the morning - I found all the
atone dwellings were abandoned, their owners either
in the streets or the wooden baildingsof their frienue,
the alarm being still kept up by the constant shocks
still occurring. Titterer/min:lg the shocks are lees fre
quent rind the bay perfectly quiet.
The English mail steamer which had lately arrived,
arid was coaling in the bay on the other ride of the
barber, was as near being lost ae possible. Her pas
sengers ' , peak of having felt the shock as we did, and
looking beyond them saw a small islet in their rear
was cleft in twain, flame and smoke issuing frourthe
lisatire. Shortly afterward the sea around cane well
nigh carrying them down. Their cables parted, but
they were thrown, most fortnnate/y, under a lee,which
placed them in camper:diets safety. The passengers,
ail ,but 'three
females, who were lost in the serf,
reached the shore. Just vows vessel has arrived from
Santa Cruze bringing an officer of the Monongahela,
who brourlit me u verbal messeee from Commis
toner Mesa saying the shtick of the earthquake had
been nuist violent at that tehloch that the sea had
risen, and threw his vessel high and dry on the beach,
that them of his men who were , in the boats along
side were drowned. I loom this evening to see what
assistance I can render him., The dalnage sustained
Ly this ship in net material.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant, '

relative - to the celebration of the' Fourth of July at
Vokahoma. forwarded to the
,l'ittry Department
,by
itear Admiral Bell: • • ,
I deem it in duty, and it Is with pleasure flint I'
make known to boa the, handsume conduct of✓ Captain
William H. /lewetr. of li• IL sloop budUsk', While
lying in this harbor on the Fourth of bug Jnlyp, and
also of Rear Admiral Rose,in command id! H. B. M.
hips in Japan. The circumstances are these, as I
have been credibly informed by several persona who
know and witnessed the celebration:
On the morning of the 8d of July Captain Hewett
called upon the French Admiral in the absence of our
ships from this place, and invited turn to unite in cele
brating our national independence. The French
Admiral cheerfully assented, and the next day both
vessels, La Gnerriere and Basilisk, dressed ship,
hoisted the American ensig,n at the main, and at noon
tired a national salute of twenty-one guns. Upon my
arrival in the harbor I immediately called on .idintral
Rose andthanked hint for observing our Independ
.ence Day.
Captain Hewitt I have not seen, brit intend calling
on him on his arrival to express spy thanks for his
noble conduct ; and I ho p% Admiral, that you will be
pleased to notice Captalk.ffilewitt's conduct, for I
think such demonstrations as these should not pass
without being officially noticed. •

Charles IL Curtis, President of the Spirit Manu
facturers' Convention, was again before the Commit
tee of Ways and Means to-day, and upon the invite-.
tiott of General Schenck, the Chairman, presented the
following; named means for obviating the evils Con
nected with the present tar on spirits, and the failure
to collect en adequate revenue from the latter. • . '
Mr. Curtis first communicated the pamphlet with
the resolutions, adopted by the Spirit Manufacturens'
Convention, and then, stating that he went a little
beyond the Convention in his ideas of the necessity
of a stringent law, laid his plan before the committee,
as follows ' .
First. No distillery to be licensed: less than $l,OOO
per annum.
, s econ d, No iiistillery for the• distillation of.. crude
spirits to be located within less than a quarter of a
mile of any redistillation or rectifying est a bli s h me nt.
Third. NO high wines to leave the distiller's ware
house until the tax Is paid.
Fourth. Lei the government keep at its °tin expense,
when a distillery is ninth ci'a warehouse Agent non _
stantly stationed at the distillery, also an inspector
to inspect the wines in the room In which they are re
ceived from the worm and, before they pass into the
warehouse.: Liberal- salaries should bo paid these
officers, In order to secure first class men.
Fifth. In his opinion, the difficulty in, the working of
the present law lies in the distiller being ablq to phy o.
liberally to the government officials. As a remedy Or
this be would recommend a largo reduction in the tax:
Sixth. He would make a violation of the license law
a State prison offense.. `"
