Charles Lanman, is, the title of an essay depicting the various races and tribes which go to make up the poptdation of these States with sketches of lite in some of the principal cities of the Union. "My burglar alarms" professes to tell how William J. Alden, the writer, shot at his Aunt Jane for exploding the house-alarm. It Is trivial. "The First Napo leon's Shadow in France" Is by Henry Morford. In this rhapsody Mr. Morford attributes the per fectly methodical and cold-blooded plans of the present Emperor for keeping before people's eyes the Founder of his dynasty to some mysteri ous, preternatural influence or "shadow" of the First Napoleon dominating the spirits of the peo ple he decimated and impoverished. Mrs. Harriet Shofford's story, "The Thief in the Night;" ,ends happily. " A Misty Remembrance." by G. W. Appleton, is devoted to impressions ...of Holland. "It is Honest" is a warm invective agai o nst the'practices of the Ro man Church, accompanied with ample evidence, by Rev. L. W. Bacon, Jr. "The Ghost of the Equinox," "All for Gold," and "A Coroner's Verdict" are short complete stories. The system, commenced by the Atlantic Monthly, of admitting elaborate advertisements in the guise of maga zine articles, finds a very prolix exemplification, with a very thin veil, in the paper called "Among the Steel Workers." We have no objection to the introduction of these demonstrations of our great manufacturing resources, than which there Is no pleasanter and prouder reading for an American; what we object to is the ostrich stratagem by which the Collins Company en deavor to pass off their puff as ,literary matter.

Sixth and revised edition: Philadelphia, Kay& Brother. The first I;olurne of this standard digest of crimi nal law comprises a treatise on criminal plead ing, with the sifting and preparation of evidence, and a summary of practice in reference to Grand Juries. The chapters on the preparation of evidence are enlightened throughout with a run nif.g compendium of the conclusions of German and French court's, on a subjeet where their sa gacity and skill are pre-eminent. eornection with the specific crimes na in our national law, there is arra a digested exhibit of the Criminal Code of the L'nittd States,and of the States of Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia in particu 'ar. The decisions of English and American Courts incorporated in this edition are brought up to the beginning of the present year, and are voted with a fullness that is exhaustive. The care with which Mr. Wharton brings forward his treatise to receive the latest illuminations of home and foreign practice, and the clearness _of its arrangement and codification for the practical Ilse of ',leaders keep it In the van of all works on criminal jurisprudence in the United States.. Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, who ever since her -Fashion and Famine" has had a definite place amongst the writers of American fiction, has pro duced another of her pure-hearted And womanly, books, with the title "Doubly False." Opening with a spirited account of a fire at, sea, the plot soon carries the reader to New York. and to a villa on the Hudson, where the adventtire,s of two beautiful cousins, one poor,and the other suddenly enriched by the catastrophe,form the fabric of the tale. The evolution of their history brings forth other characters. Among these we find the Widow Lander, the mother of one of the girls, grasping, luxuriant•in taste, cowardly, with the good in her nature constantly struggling against the crux a she has committed. Connected with her is Eunice Hurd, a hard faced,•rough-man nered housekeeper and old maid, with a brother moulded after like fashion: and a hunchback gifted with genius, who weaves a thread of gene rous thought and impulse through the story. We candidly believe that this varied narrative will have a great sucev.ss among the circle of readers whom Mrs. Stephens, by her constant sweetness and high tone, has charmed to her side. Confessions of a Fashion Editor. Madame Emeline Raymond, a novelist, also editor of the fashion journal called the lfode Illustrie, has published an account of the hard work which she and her fellow-workers are com pelled to endure. For herself she declares it •Is impossible to fulfil all the commissions sent to her from the country districts of France. tier provincial correspondents pester her. Each day of her , life, she says, her pen is diligently at work for not less than eight hours. She has, besides, the management of Ler journal, which is something v.ry differ ent from the management of a literary or po litical paper. One error would draw down half France and a portion of Europe upon her. Sup pose that she permitted an outline of a corsage, a manteau, a robe, or a variorum), to appear, and it was found impracticable and would not work! Imagination can barely conceive the • entangle- Meet of correspondence in which she would im mediately find herself, with small chance of escap irg•nr.disgraced, if not ruined. The idle ladies or France are not so idle but that they study ardently every hint of how to turn an old dress into a now one and catch the bloom of fashion. The manager of a Mode Illustree, Madame Ray mond continues, must have her ingenuity con stantly alive. She must know what changes are in the air. To give eclat to her reputation she must evtn dare occasionally to invent. All the plans for adorning the female person have to be ex amined and tested by herself. She gives audiences, she presides over conferences of models and de signers. She writes in an agreeable colloquial form the elucidation of the engravings—no easy business. There is a periodical supplementary is sue of a prodigious map of designs, of a most in volved character, that must' nevertheless be in stantaneously intelligible to the female eye; and this, also, Mdme. Raymond has to, superintend with the closest scrutiny, .The perusal of manu scripts and corrections of the press are matters of course, but the importance of her position ren ders it impossible to do them in a matter-of course way. Then comes a list of resseignemente, In, which she has to reply to the entreaties for specific in formation of the ladies of the empire with a mix ture of maternal tenderness and authority. For example, a "Jenne fills" is assured that the pale tots Antoinette or Ondine are suitable for her to wear; never are black , satin paletotafworn in sum, mer months; witnesses to a marriage are not bound to make presents, The renseignements aro instructive even in a philosophical light,as show ing that cases of conscience and apparel still wake the primary anxieties ,of the sex. As, if these occupationS were not enough, Mdine..Ray mond takes the post of literary governess, and writes lessons for:piano players. Her novel is evidently the lightest of her tasks, • —Cardinal Bonaparte, In conformity to. the desirer of the Popc i has definitively, renounced his projected journey , to Franco, and taken formal possession of Ste.

Anson Burlingame and other" Representatives of sue Chinese Government in !Veil fork. [From the New York Times of t0.4ay.1 ' Among the passengers by the Pacific Mail steamship Arizona, from San Francisco, which arrived at this port yesterday, were Hon. Anson Burlingameand other representatives of the Chi nese Government in this country and in Europe. In order to spare Mr. Burlingame the annoyance of meeting with a promiscuous crowd at the steamer's pier, Mr. Wakeman, Surveyor of the Port, accompanied by Ron. Isaac Livermore, Mr. Edward M. Livermore and Captain J. M. Dolliver, proceeded down the harbor in a tugboat at 4.50, in the morning, for the purpose of intercepting the steamer on her passage up the bay. The steamer arrived at Quarantine at about 19A. M. and received on board Mr. Wakeman and others of the party. After an interview of half an hour, Mr. Burlin game, his wife and daughter stepped aboard the tug:boat, and, together with the original party, were conveyed to Pier No. 19 North River, where carriages were ip waiting to take them to the Westminster Hotel. The steamer having on board the other members of the embassy steamed up the river to her pier, No. 43 North River, arriving there about noon. Thence the Company took carriages and were conveyed to the Westminster. A large number of people were gathered on the pier, both Inside and out side of the gate, yet no demonstration took place other than that which a sense of curiosity at see ing a group of Chinese in native costume would excite. The Embassy travel with an immense amount of baggage, and judging from the num ber of trunks and boxes that followed them to the hotel, one would think that the...steamer had been heavilydadened without liffifitidlial freight. The embassy is composed of Hon. Anson Bar lingame, accredited Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the Chinese Government to the Treaty Powers; Chili Tajen and Sun Tujen Chinese Ministers; J. Mc- Leavy Brown, First Secretary of Legation; Mon elem.- E. de Champs, Second Secretary of Lega tion. With the above are six student interpre ters, two of whom have studied and speak En glish with considerable facility, two have studied French and two itueslan ; two writers, a native doctor and about fif teen servants. Their excellen cies Lhih Tejon and Bun Tejon are High Minis ters of the second rank, attached to the Mission to learn and qualify themselves in the modes of diplomatic intercourse, and to assist Mr. Bur litgame in his communications with the Chinese (3( vernment. Upon arriving at the hotel Mr. Burlingame was at once waited upon by a number of friends anti distinguished citizens. who paid their respects and conversed briefly on the general topics of the day. The Chinese natives sauntered through the corridors and parlors, evidently well-pleased with their temporary headquarters,! and viewed with apparent unconcern the crowd of men and boys that had collected at the entrance for the purpose of getting a good look at Chinese officials. Mr. Burlingame desires It to be understood that the mission in which he is engaged will not be used by him in any partial or limited sense. He wishes it to be conducted in the interests of the whole country, without reference to any parti cular action or political party. By sending forth this mission Chiaa expresses her desire and in tention to come into the brotherhood of nations. It means commerce, peace and a unification in its own interest of the whole human race. Early lu the day Mr. Burlingame despatched a mes senger to Secretary. Seward, notifying , him of his arrival. He expects to leave for Washington to-day or to-morrow and at a proper time to place before the . Government authorities all the details connected with the objects of the mission. Annual Session of the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania. [From therittbburgh Gazette, May 22.] The annual session was continued yesterday at Lafayette Hall. The officers elected were in stalled into their respective positions by the re tiring Grand Master, Richard Watson. The Committee on Reception. representing the Lodges in this portion of the jurisdiction, made their report, whereupon Bro. P. G. R. Biddle Roberts, as the representative of the Lodges in Western Pennsylvania, addressed the Grand Lodge on behalf of the Fraternity in the Western portion of the .State, bidding them welcome to our city, and congratu lating them on this their first session held west of the Alleghenies. We regret that we are nue ble to give a report of Brother Roberts' remarks at length at present, but we may say that it was one of the happiest of the kind that we have heard for years.

Women Working In English Coal An account of the condition of the colliers of South Lancashire, England, published in the London _Daily News, describes the women who are employed at the pit-months. Tho number of women thus employed In the neighborhood of Wigan is five hundred, most of whom are unmar ried. Their ages vary from twelve to fifty; a few aro the widows of cofliers. They generally wear a peculiar attire, consisting of coarse trowaers,re sembling those worn by men, fastened by a belt round the waist, a soft bonnet and a shawl. The petticoats are generally tucked into tho trousers. Sometimes they may be seen wearing jackets like the men, smoking, drinking, and behaving as if completely unsexed. It is acknowledged that the habitual wearing of this costume tends to destroy all sense of decency amongst them, but it has not been ascertained that their morals are more lax than those of the generality of femalea employed in agricultural operations. • They natu rally belong to a very low clam, but in some cases they make good wives and ' mothers, and many of tho younger l ones regu larly attend. in appropriate female Costume, the neighboring Sunday schools; still, the system cannot be easily defended. The colliers, as a body, are ashamed of it.

CRIME. Suicide of a Physician in Savannah On Friday night, the 15th Instant, Dr. J. T. Paterson reached his hotel in Savannah, Ga. at about 11 o'clock, apparently very nervous. ' He went to bed with his clothes on. Between 12 and 2 o'clock he arose and took three or four drinks of spirits. His wife, who was lying on the lounge, asked the doctor what he bad taken. His rept) , was, "laudanum." She then asked him how much he had taken, to which he replied, "forty drops." "Is not that a large dose?" "No," he replied, "not for a man in my nervous condi tion." This remark quieted his wife, and after further conversation both went to sleep. At about eight o'clock in the morning the pro prietor of the hotel entered and asked the doctor some questions, to which he made answers, bat none were rational. He did not get up then, but lay on the bed and stink into a deep sleepcbreath ing very heavily. At about 11 o'clock his wife, alarmed at his sleeping so long and breathing so heavily, tried to awaken him, , Failing, she sent for Dr. J. D. Fish, the attendant physician, who arrived at about 11% o'clock. He found the patient insensible, with all the indications which follow the taking of laudanum. Remedies proved useless, and a few minutes after the docter's arrival Dr. Paterson died. He was a Scotchman, very intelligent; and at the time of his death was 36 years of age. Several years previous to the war, lie emigrat ;(1 to Boston, Mass., and engaged in his profession of dentistry.

[From To•day'e New York Tribune. ) The country will welcome the nomination of General Grant as the harbinger of Peace, of a thomgh and righteous reconstruction, and of a prudent and popular administration. The nomination of Schuyler eolfax for the Vice Presidency is the most universally satis factory that could be made. Notwithstanding the desire to avoid taking both our candidates from the West, or rather from the Centre—as we must soon come to regard Illinois and In diana—it was wisely felt that no geographical reasons should weigh against the imperative wis dom of putting forward our two beat men, both for availability before the people and for capacity and integrity in office. Such are. Grant and Col-. fax. It is a noble, glorious ticket ! Since the days of Washington .and Adams, we have had none more worthy of the over whelming, unanimous support of the American people without distinction of party._Governor Fenton retires from a well fought et:fittest with signal honor to himself. Ho has reason to be proud of the enthusiastic sup port of so powerful an array of friends. They show that a glorious future is Ware Mtn. Mr. Wade deserved the great and nearly successful support be recelvdd. Senator Wilson and Mr. Hamlin could each only have been defeated by th 3 other. They will all join hands to elect Grant and Colfax. The platform is fair, temperate and firm. While d,enoupcing all forms of repudiation, it consults the interest of the tax-payer by recom mending' a gradual redemption of the public debt, and reduction of the rate of Interest. It sustains reconstruction on the basis of impartial sufirago and loyal supremacy, justifies the im peachment of Andrew Johnson for his high crimes and misdemeanors, and guarantees pro tection to all naturalized citizene. Against such candidates and principles, the' treachery of false friends and the hostility of open foes are alike futile. AU the States were represented in the Convention. Now let our friends in-Congress push on the work of recon struction—the chief present duty of the Republi can party—so that the votes of all the States, if possible may be cast at the election. Let us have an Administration unanimously , elected by all the States, and by so large a majority of the whole people that its adversaries will thank us for omitting to mention them. The campalgn•opens gloriously. On with the g , wont! great Let our watchword be GRANT, °COLFAX, and VICTORY! The Israelites and Polities. The Jewish Messenger makes some remarks about the part taken by •the Hebrew race in modern politics, in the countries of Europe, as well as in this country. Beside such well-known names as Mr. Disraeli, of England; M. Fould, of France; Mr. Benjamin, of the late Confederate States, and Mr. Belmont, of the Democratic general committee, there have been the Pereires, Chemloux, Mario, and other distinguished Frenchmen,. Jacobi, Reline!, and other eminent Germans; Godefroi, Asser, and other prominent Hollanders; Artom, in Italy; Rothsehilde, Salomons, Phillips and Goldsmid,in England, who may be mentioned among success ful politicians of the day-80M0 leaders of opinion in the respective countries. The Mes senger says, however, that Mr. Disraeli, Mr. Ben jamin and Mr. Belmont have renounced Judaism. In reference to the Hebrew vote in this coun try, the Messenger thinks it "cannot be concen trated for or against a particular caadidate, except for grave reasons." "This mach," it adds, "we well know—that the Ele brew citizens of this republic are not to be dragooned or made tools of for political uses. They are not a compact Wily for political pur poses. Their commercial, social and political allabs are thoroughly distinct from their religious interests.

Z. FEMERSTON. PublisW, PRIOE THREE GENTS. FACTS AND FANINI V) (For the Philadelphia Eveningßulletiu.! A TALE OF JAPAN. IRY sour qat Fanny Foo•Foo was a Japanese girl, The child of the Great Tycoon; She wore her head bald, and her clothes WOW made Half petticoat, half pantaloon ; Her face was the color of lemon peg, And the shape of a table-spoon. A handsome young Jap was Johnny HI-Hip And hewore paper-muslin clothes ; His glossy black hair, on top of his head In the form of a shoe-brush rose ; ills eyes slanted downward, as If some chap Ilad savagely pulled his nose. 'anny Foo•Foo loved Johnny HI-HI, And when, in the usual style, He popped, she bindle:lnch a deep orange tinge You'd have thought she'd too much. bile, If it hadn't been for her slant-eyed glance, And her charming wide-mouthed smile. And oft, in the bliss of their new-born love, Did these little pagans stray All around in spots, enjoying themselves In a strictly Japanese way; She howling a song to a one-stringed lute On which she thought she could play. Often he'd clirhb to a high ladder's top, And quietly there repose, - • As be stood on his head and fanned himself, While she balanced him on her nose. Or else she would get in a pickle tub And be kicked around on his toes. Or Johnny would tie his legs aroand his neek, dnd tumble, and bounce, and roll; Or over a lot of very sharp swords They'd both take a pleasant stroll;, Or hang by onoleg to the upper end Of quite a long bamboo pole. When they were tired, on a telegraph wire They sat themselves down to rest ; With an umbrella he balanced himself, While ho hold her to his breast, And her cream• colored scalp was fondly laid Right on his calico vest. The course of true love, even In Japan, Often runs extremely rough, And the fierce Tycoon, when he heard of this, Used Japanese oaths so tough That his courtiers' hair would have stood on end If only they'd had enough. So the Tycoon buckled on both his swords, In his pistol placed ,a wad, And went out to hunt for the truant pair, With his nerves braced by a tod. lie found thew enjoying their guileless eelTeg , On top of the lightning-Lod. Sternly he ordered the gentle Poo-Foo To "come down out of that there !" And he told HI-HI to go to a place— I won't say precisely where. Then he dragged off his child, whose spasms evinced Unusually wild despair. But the Tycoon, alas ! was badly fooled, Despite his paternal pains. For John, with a toothpick, lot all the blood Out of his jugular veins; While a back somersault on to the door, Battered out Foo-Foo's brains. They buried them both In the Tycoon's lot, Right under a dog-wood tree, Where they could list to the nightingales, and - The buzz of the bumble-bee; And where the mosquito's sorrowful chant Maddens the restlessfies. And often at night, when the Tycoon's wife Slumbered as sound as a post, His almond-shaped eyeballs looked on a sight That scared him to death almost; 'Twas a bald-beaded spectre, flitting about With a paper-muslin ghost ! —A match game—matrimony.—Ex. —A wicker Saratoga think is the latest novelty. —Somebody asks whether the play of "Tan gled Threads" was 'written for the Ravels. —Michelet has sold the temporary copyright of his History of France for $34,000. —Tho rebel fortifications around Savannah are being demolished. —A large bed of amber has been discovered at Scbwarzort, on the shores of the Baltic. —The Queen's journal is to be translated into Gaelic. —Somebody says Jenny Lind will visit us next Fall. —Why did Uncle Sam limit himself to Weir:m -*la In Ida late treaty with Russia?
