BMW PUBLICATIONS, -v Irving's '‘Columbus”—a narrative in Which Eeoffrey Crayon gains, by his mere limpid sim plicity. an effect beyond the wonders of romance —appears In Putnam’s admirable Knickerbocker edition. The first volume is now ready. The illustrations aro voluminous, and odd greatly to the yalno of the book. A small-headed, horse faced, incredible portrait of the great sailor, be lieved in it seems In France, is carefnUy engraved and commended by the publisher, who quotes in its favor the librarian of the Imperial Library (dreamily termed Bibliothijue dufloi by Mr. Putnam;* who is oblivions of French politics,) at Paris. The reader has his choice between Oils and a rude but more satisfactory likeness copied from the plate in Do Bry’s Voyages,—in every KBpect as different from the Louvre portrait as fancy can devise. The square-browed De Bry portrait has been adopted generally in America— is the baßis of Leutze’s fine paintings', 'and, we believe, of Rogers’s doorway reliefs In the Capitol. In England they are more contemptu ous of time and custom, and usually adopt a fluid portrait by Parmlgiano, in tho Naples GaUery, representing a bearded aristocrat with a ladylike hand, Parmlgiano, however, was born in 1503 and there is proof that ColHmbus did not wear his beard. As for tho Louvre head, so different from cither it has Buch an incontrovertibiy Spanish air that the imagination .refuses to as sign it Zo a Genoese.. The publishers also repro duce from De Sty’s Voyngea a number of plates, in quaint old-fashioned perspective, from which wc can get a correct idca'of Columbus’s ships, with details of their tackle, the co3tnme of the age,&c. These rare pictures gracefully intro duce a narrative which has an undying charm for American readers. Sold by J. K. Simon. Messrs.

Lippincott A Co. AFFAIRS AT CAPE ISLAND. [Correspondence 1 Of the Philadelphia Evening Bullotln.l Cape Island,■ June Bth, 1868 A few cottagers have already arrived here and taken up their resi dence for fhb season. The Centre Housp, tho Snrf House,the Sherman and the Merchants’, and two or three other of the smaller hotels, are open, .but, so far, have very few, boarders. Congress Hall will open on tho 23d, the Columbia on the 25th, and the United States on tlie'27th. By the large number of rooms already engaged in the leading hotels, it is anticipated that the season will be an unusually gay and brilliant one. The new Excursion House will open about the 20th. It is a magnificent structure, and it is re plete with every modern convenience that can contribute to the comfort of excursionists. The' traUdinghas a front of nearly one hundred feet deep. The dining room is over two hundred feet long, by forty-two feet wide, with a ceiling of eighteen feet. It will seat one thousand persons. This room will also be used as a ball room by ex cursionists. During the seaeon a band of music will be in constant' attendance. The cars run direct to tho door. There is a platform seven hnhdred and fifty feet long, on which to land the passengers. There are piazzas on two stories twenty feet wide, running around the entire « building. A broad board-walk, over one thou sand feet long, faces the ocean, thns affording a ’ delightful promenade. It is intended to extend it to Congress Hall lawn, which will make a walk of nearly one mile. Tho Excursion House is situated next to the site of tho old Mount Vernon Hotel. The bathing ground is said to bo the finest on tho island. This enterprise is due to the efforts of General Sewell, Superintendent of the Railroad Company. The building, with its surroundings ot billiard saloons; ten-pin alleys, and bath-houses, cost about one hundred thou sand dollars. Captain Huddell was here on Saturday to re build the Steamboat Wharf. He will commence running the “ Lady of the Lake” on the 25th. She is a staunch new boat, two hundred and twelve feet long, with twenty-nine feet beam. The boat is elegantly fitted up. The regular trains for the season will com mence running on Saturday next. Gen. Sewell has made some important changes in the time table, which Will greatly facilitate travel between the city and the Island. About twenty-five new cottages have been put up since last year. Some of them are very hand- EOtnr> Nearly all the best cottages have been rented for the season. The rcnt6 range from $3OO to $750. The weather has been charming for the past few days. At the steamboat landing, on Sa turday, five wagon loads of blue-fish (or sea trout) were caught at one haul. The prepara tions being made for visitors aro much greater than they were last season. All the principal hotels ha e betn greatly improved. ** JAPAN. The Attack on the Engllnli mission. A Japan correspondent of the London Times writcß from Kioto, under date of Mari h 25: “You are aware that the newly formed government of the Mikado, anxious ,to establish foreign relations on the most friend ly footing, invited the foreign Ministers to Kioto to have an audience of the Mikado. Three of the representatives, those of Eng land, Prance and Holland, accepted the in vitation. The other three, those of Prussia, the United States, and Italy, choße to defer their visit until they could return from Yokohama, to which place the interests of their .subjects, as they said, called them with out delay. -“We Osaka on the 20th, and reached Kioto ihe . .llowing day towards noon. The 23d was fixed by the Mikado for his reception of the foreign ministers. Up to that time every thing had gone off most satisfactorily, and every one was highly pleased with the trank and friendly manner in which we had been treated by high and low. With such confidence did we set out on our way to the palace that I did not even carry my re volver. “To make you understand what occurred I must tell you the order'in which we set out. First came the inspector of the legation es cort riding alongside of a Japanese officer of rank, named Nakai, who formerly belonged to the Batsuma clan; then came the mounted escort; then Sir Harry Parkes, with Mr. Batow .and Goto. Shojirio, a high officer, of the Department; then came a guard of irtfo uy, belonging to the Ninth regiment, which is now stationed at Yokohama. I, having do horse, followed in a kugo, or native sedan chair. As good luck would have it, Dr. Willis, of the Legation, and some naval officers, whom Sir Harry had invited to Kioto, among whom were two medical officers, Drs. reives and Ridings, had ac companied us on foot, in order to see us enter t the Palace. Down a straight street, nearly facing our temple, the front men passed with out let or hindrance; but as they turned the corner of the street, two or perhaps more ruf fians sprang out upon them with naked swords and attacked them. “Nakai leaped from his horse and] en gaged one, but,-, catching his foot in his trousere, stumbled' aind recelved a - severe cut ih the head. At this moment Goto Bhoitno, who with the minister had not. yet turned the comer, perceiving from the backing of the horses and the scuffle in front that there was mischief ahead, dismounted, and, rushing forward, cametoNakai’s res'eue, and between them, fighting like brave men, they killed and decapitated the'viilain on the spot The other scoundrel, crouching like a tiger, ran swiftly down our line, brandishing his sword like lightning and cutting right ana left in his blind rage. It was like a Malay running a muck, only with a more deadly weapon. I, who was in the rear, saw a disturbance, but at first thought it was only caused by some restive horses, until I heard the cry ‘Kill him!’ ‘Stop himl’ ‘Cuthim down!’ Tnen I Saw the inspector, of the escort Come can tering down rite street and firehis pistol, and spme one said, ‘We are attacked!’, “I jumped out of my Icago just aS the pis tol went off close to me, and a woman fell down in front of me frightened bufnot hurt I saw a man rußh into the house next me pursued by-the Inspector and two officers commanding the Infantry Guard. I drew my sword and ran' to the front, not knowing the extent of the danger and anxious to see whether all our party were safe.- As I ran up. the street I met one man after another of the mounted escort coming down streaming with blood from their wounds, but not a man, , complained., I found the minister at . the angle of the street with the headless body of one of our enemies at his feet, and ascer tained that be was unhurt as well as all our officers. ' ‘ “Of course, going on to the Court was out of the question. We had twelve .men wounded, including Nakai and Sir Harry Parkes’ Japanese groom, besides four horses, and naturally our woftnded were the first ob ject Sometime was lost in getting coolies to carry our poor fellows—at least, so many of them as were,faint from losfi of blood; for the others, grievously wounded though they were, insisted on sticking to their horses. “And po we got home —-a most dismal re turn. Our beautiful temple was turned into a ghastly hospital; our wounded men, bleed ing aairAheir life must ebb out; lay patiently in thg.jVerandah, waiting their turn of the assistance of the doctors, who; stripped to their shirts, seemed almost to multiply them selves, so very quick and skilful were they. Shirts and sheets were being torn into ban dages, buckets of bloody water were being emptied and refilled—everything one touched or sawwas bloody. “My duty lay with a prisoner, whom we thought to he dying, and whom it was im portant to examine as fast as possible. The following is his statement: “ ‘My name is Ichikawa Samuro. lam a priest from the temple called lorenji, at Za mato Hegurigori, near Osaka. I left the Castle this morning determined to kill all the foreigners that I might meet. I came to. Kioto on the 2d day of this month to. form one of the Mikado’s body-guard, and put up at the temple called Hommanji, in the'.Tem ple street. , I left it the day before yesterday and went to the Castle. 1 was in the First regiment at . the. Castle, but could not agree with my'companions, so determined to regu late my conduct according to my own ideas. I set out to kill foreigners. I had no accom plices.' I pray to he examined, and if found guilty to be executed and my crime made known throughout the empire.” “At a second examination, after his wounds had been dressed, he said: “*1 had an accomplice, one Hayasliida; I iorget his other name. He js. the son of a vil lage doctor not belonging to the Sanfrirai Class, from Katsura Mura, & village near Ki oto. He is a Konin. He belonged to the First Regiment of Guards. I heard last night from the servants that foreigners were going to court; and waited to see them pass. Did not know to what nation they, belonged. It was the first time I had seen foreigners. I repent of my crime. It was a sudden thought on the part of both of us. I bad no previous hatred to foreigners.’ [On being shown the head of the man who had berm decapitated in the street —up to this time he did' not. know of his death:] .‘This is the head of Haya shida. Since he is dead I wish to live no more. Please cut off my head as soon as possible. We bad been drinking together at a wine shop., I forget the name of the sbop.’ “To this second statement the wounded man adhered through a strict cross-examina tion, and solemnly stated there was no other person in league with him. “In the evening the Mikado, whose Court had been shocked, as we can Well imagine, by the hews, sent several of his highest min isters to present hia-scondolences and regret for what had occurred; this, taken in con junction with the gallant behavior of his of ficers and with the prompt punishment in flicted for recent outrages, could leave no doubt of the horror which was expressed. They inquired with great solieitude after our wounded.” “Nark Iwttln” lnNcvada-IJis Views mid Experiences. The Chicago Republican has a long letter from “Mark Twain,” written in Virginia City, Nevada, He first notices the abandon ment of “wild-cat” silver mines, and the pros perity of the more noted lodes, and then compares the differences between" the old time mining and that of the present day. He says: DEEP MINING, In those old days, when we reporters went dangling down a dark shaft at the end of a crazy rope, with a candle in our teeth, to the depth of two or three hundred feet, we felt as if we were getting into the very bowels of the earth. We prowled uncomfortably through muddy crumbling drifts and tunnels, and were hap py no more until the man up at the bullet hole that showed us a far-off glimpse of blue sky, wound us up with bis windlass and set us in the cheerful light of the sun again. But now they send me whizzing down a compactly boarded well, thirteen hundred feet below the surface of the'earth, and de-' livbr me into the midst of a mighty cavern; timbered up and supported by a dim wilder ness of logs and beams and braces that cross and recross and tower upward till they fade and vanish in the thick darkness far above my head. I know that I am busied alive, 1 down, down in the.remote centre of the earth, j and feel the hot crust of hell beneath my I feet! A short stay there is sufficient. I see ! fro,m whence those great, frosted masses of ! silver bullion come that, I look upon in the mills and assay offices every day, and then lam satisfied to be sent whizzing upward i toward the earth again by ponderous steam j machinery. i I see _ many, many changes. But most notable is the change from bootless, feverish, .; ruinous speculation in undeveloped mines, ; to sober, remunerating labor on veins of great and lasting value. It is the change from : mere speculation to regular, systematic busi v ness —and in it lies a firm future prosperity ' for Nevada. 1 hear the stamp-mills thunder ing, and I see the carts laden with massive silver bricks—each a load for a man—and I ■feel that the silver land is safg at last beyond the reach of those disastrous panics that once threatened to utterly destroy her. I “brief mention of a friend.” An acquaintance of mine shook hinds vvD.li me in such a very patronizing manner yes- TBiE DAILY EVENING BULI^TIN--'PHlLAliE]bto^Tilg2^Q^ terday that I am moved to make him the textl of that wilL serve to : illustrate: what one may term p ‘‘stateofthipgs.’’-.Whenl I first knew this man he hadn’t a .cent. He did not put on airs then. Now-hois a su perintendent of one of the greatsilver mines, and has grown rich. You mey-not believe that a superintendent can grow absolutely rich in four years on a salary of from ten to' twenty thousand dollars a.year; but such is really the case. Ordinary -superintendents are content to covertly receive a present of a dollar or so for each ton of ore they sell to a mill-man; but my man’s ambltiUn soared higher than that. He took lumber belonging to the great corporation thatemployed biro, an d built a little mill of his own with it. He built that mill below the company’s mill,too,which was wise. ’ Then ho took other of the com pany’s lumber, and built a string of sluice boxes that reached clear from the company’s mill to his own. After that he worked the company’s rock in the company’s mill and got sixteen dollars a ton put of it—and turned the money over to the company—which didn’t declare a dividend. Then he took the “trail itigs," from that spine rock, carried them through the sluices to his little private mill; work them over again, and out of every ton he got thirty ■ dollars! Which money was his own, of course, and he never gave any of it to the company, Now you can. understand how a man can get rich in four years, on twelve thousand dollars a year, when the company furnishes him a dwelling-house and horses and carriages free../ And tins' is the moral beggaif that shakes hands patronisingly . with a spotless and. virtuous newspaper, cor respondent, The people] used to say it was a shame that the company did not put an injunction ; on that little private mill, and stop'its conflsca .tions. But the company never did. The company was too much accustomed to queer taxation by superintendents, perhaps! But at last an offended Providence put an in junction on that mill—sent it in the form of a flood that, washed the mill away. Happily there is no appeal from an injunction when Providence puts it on. Nevadians will know who lam speaking or. ' But lam tired talking about mines. I saw a man hanged the other day. John Melanie, of France. He was the first man ever hanged in this city (or country either), where the first twenty-Bix graves in the Cemetery were those of men who died by shots and stabs. I never had witnessed an execution before, and did not believe I could be present at this one without turning away my head at the last moment. But I did not know what fas cination-there’was about the thing then. I only went because I thought I ought to have a lesson, and becfiilae I believed that if ever it would be possible to see a man hanged, and derive satisfaction from the spectacle this was the time. For John Melanie was no common murderer—else he would have gone free. He was a heartless assassin. After he was tried and condemned to death, he used to curse and swear, at all who ap proached him; and he : once grossly some young Sisters'of Charity who came to minister kindly to his wants. The morning of the execution, he joked with the barber, and told him not to cut his throat—he wanted the distinction of being hanged: ■ This'is the man l wanted to see hung. I joined the appointed physicians, so that I might be admitted within the charmed circle and be close to Melanie. Now I never more shall be surprised at anything. That assassin got out of the close carriage, and the first thing bis eye fell upon was that awful gal lows towering above a great sea of human heads, out yonder on the hill side—and his cheek never blanched, and never a muscle . quivered! He strode firmly away, and skipped gaily up the steps of the gallows like, a happy girL : He looked .around upon the people, calmly; he examined the gallows with a critical eye, and with the pleased cu riosity of a man who sees for the first time a wonder be has often heard of. He swallowed frequently, but there was no evidence of trepidation about him—and not the slightest air of braggadocia whatever. He prayed with the priest, and then drew out an abusive manuscript and read from it in a clear, strong voice, without a quaver in it. It was a broad, thin sheet of paper, and he held it.apart in front of him as he stood. If ever his band trembled in even the slightest degree,itnever quivered thatpaper. I watched him at that sickening moment when the sheriff was fitting the-noose about his neck, aDd pushing the knot this way and that to get it nichly:adjusted to the hollow under his ear; and if they bad been measuring Melanie for a shirt he could not have been more per fectly serene. I never saw anything like that before. I saw it all. I took exact note of every detail, even to Melanie’s Considerately helping to fix the leather strap that bound' his > legs together, and his quiet removal of his slip leers, and I never wish to see it again.

A letter to the London, Examiner says: “Alcide Tousez, in his very comic ‘Life of • the Emperor,” says ‘He was bom in Corsica, •where the inhabitants have the fatiguing cus tom of assassinating each other from .father, to son.’ And by all accounts, nearly a cen tury’s connection with the most civilized • country in the world, has hot eradicated this : fatiguing custom. c At Bastia a man named Aubin has just been condemned to death for '.hilling one Antonetti. The criminal said ‘An tonetti owed me two francs; he would not pay me. I killed him,’ There is something lugubriously epigrammatic in this confession, which for terseness equalsany order of the day, or bulletin issued by Napoleon. From the above crimes some .estimate inajr ‘ ’ be. formed" of the value of life in France and Corsica. Here an apothe cary onty fetches a pair of military trowsers,, sajr, ten francs, and in Corsica a publican is slain for two. There have been other atroci ties committed here, three of which may be .givenas specimens of the state of morality: A man and his wife, after long ill-treating' a little girl of the former, killed her under most revolting circumstances—the account says took several hours killing her. The-wo man lies under (sentence of death; and the bard labor for life, as the woman,, tempted blm. A man named Young goes to slay, his' "wife; bnt-mtuders-hia -father instead, and tries to murder- bis . mother also. An. other wretch, called Bouville, kills his wifej who'ifasab'ouc'tQgive birth to her fourteenth child, after having committed other crimes id bis family, and the Sentence was hard labor for life.” ~ - . .Vchn> Vi9lble at noonday 'ln* Hun- cJrt'd 1 cui» itgo, A correspondent of: the London Times ■ ■writing from Greenwich, lately explained that a brilliant noonday star or comet sig nalized by a previous correspondent of the same journal is the planet;Yepus, not uncom monly visible at noon at this time other greatest brilliancy. The sight of the same planet at noon on the 2!i th of May, 1630, thd day of the birth of Charles 11. (says the Pall Mall Gazette), Created a great, sensation; it was seen as his father was proceeding to St; Paul’s to give thanks for the Prince’s birth ,- it was, thought to be a new star, and an omen "of bright promise for the new-born Prince.. Cowley, W ailer ■ and Dry den have all celebrated auspicious star after Charles IL’s restoration: No star amongst ye all did, I believe, - Such vigorous assistance give, As. that which, thirty years ago, At.Charlcs his birth, did, In despite Ofthe proud sun’s meridian light, Bis future glories and this year toreshom .

And-now> “ round of greater years begun, blew influence from his walks of light did bring. Dry den's Annus Mirabilit. Lilly the astrologer identified the phenom enon as the planet Venus. The %'cclh. A writer in Harper for June says.: Rousseau said that no woman with fine .teeth could bo ugly. Any female mouth almost, with a good set of ivories, is kissable. The too early loss of the first teeth has an unfavorable influence upon the beauty and du ration of the second. The youngest children should accordingly, be.made to take care of them. All that is necessary is to brush them several times a day with, a little ordinary soap or magnesia and water. Grbwn people should clean their teeth at least five times in the course of the twenty-four hours, on rising in the morning, and going to bed at night, and after each meal. A brush as hard as can be borne without pain should be used, and the best of all applications is pure soap and water, always lukewarm. After eating, the particles of; food should be carefully removed from the teeth by means of a toothpick of quill or wood, but never of metal; and by a thread passed now and again between the teeth. Tooth powders of all kinds are injurious both to the enamel and the gums, and if employed every particle of them should be removed from the mouth by careful rinsing. The habit -which some women have of using a bit of lemon, .though it may whiten the teeth and give temporary firmness and color to the gams, is feud to the enamel, as are all acids. No one, young or old, should*tum theirjaws into nat-crackers; and it is dangerous even for women, to bite off, as they often do, the ends : of thread in sewing.' It is not safe to bring the very hotr food or drink, especially if immediately ; fol lowed by anything cold, in contact with the teeth. - Wholesome gums are more essential, even, than the teeth to the beauty of the mouth. They Should be of a firm texture and a lively red color, and Well spread over the base of each tooth, but they are often pale or livid, shrunken, fleshless, and sometimes even ul cerated. The .excessive use of sugar and candies does great mischief It is not only the bad effect of the acids.produced by their decomposition, but the gnttiness of these substances which wears away the gum, bares the tooth, and spoils the mouth. This is the chief danger of the use of tooth-powders. Livid gums will be benefited bv occasional, but not too frequent, hard rubbing and prick ing with a toothpick until they bleed slightly. A “Late Dwelling” In Scotland. A Scottish paper, says: “About twelve years ago, upon draining a fresh water loch in Arisaig, on the property of the late Mr. F. D. P. Asley, a cran-nog, or lake dwelling, was discovered. These .lake dwellings are now being discovered in various parts of Scotland, and are very interesting, as throw ing some new light upon the habits and his tory of the early Celtic race , who inhabited Scotland many centuries, and also as forming a new link, with the early populations of other lands; for although the size and struc ture of the Swiss and Italian lake dwellings are somewhat different from those of the Scotch and Irish cran-nogs, there is evident ly a similarity in the idea, and another link seems to be formed between the ancient po pulations. The loch at Arisaig is about half a mile from the sea and the village of Arisaig; it is only partially drained, so that the con struction of the cran-nog cannot be perfectly ascertained. It appeared to have been placed in deep water, as the soft , and wet. mud • around it is not fathomable tiy : a long pole; the nearest point of land is about two hundred and fifty yards distant. It is formed of the trunks of trees, some of which are of very large size; one that was measured is twenty eight feet long and five feet in circumference, at two feet from the base; another is thirty nine feet long, and five feet eight in’ches at the base. The structure ..(.qppists of several tiers or layers of “these trees; two layers have been partially washed away by returning tides; four layers were exposed to view in examining the build- ; ing, and a probe: of eight feet long detected timbers at that further depth: Each layer in succession hes'across the one below it, form ing a strong, firm structure of rectangular shape; the sides are forty-three feet by forty one feet. On the floor flagstones in three or four places, Which evidently had been the fireplaces of the inhabitants. At a distance of about two feet six inches from the building was a rampart, formed of upright posts inclined inwards, and sharpened at the■ top, across which were placed large trees, that were fastened at the corners by a hollow scooped out of the wood. ” PROPOSALS.
