NEW PERIODICALS. Ab the successive numbers of Hearth and Home appear, they show better and better what kind of thing editors Mitchell and Stowe mean to make of the enterprise. The object seems to be to provide a mass of literature that shall rival the Ledger, imsimplicity and familiarity of diction, yet without losing tjhe-. imprint of cultivation and. taste. The best piece of writing continues to be the story, by Mrs. R. Harding Davis, “ The Tcmbroke Legacy.” Then there is in the seventh number an almost equally charming tale, about a “Cup of Cold Water,”’a story of the war, told with winning directness by Grace Greenwood;, and Mrs. Stowe was never more to the point and readable than in her remarks about the “ Treatment of Babies.’’ Dr. Horace Bushnell, of Hartford, accep tably describes the history of laying otlt the Park in that city, accompanying' the text With plan and illustration. Phoebe Cary tells in verse the story of the old woman whom Baint Peter changed into a woodpecker for stinginess; it reads quite like Ovid. The il lustrations evidently suffer from the tyranny «F the engravers, who insist upon making Stephens's figures pulpier, and Granville Perkins’s landscapes more meshy than the artists sire capable of leaving them. Number «is to have a Ml-p&ge Valentine subject by Hast, and a German print, on a separate sheet, called “The Pet ofthe Village.”—Pub lished by PettiDgill, Bates & Co., 37 Park Row, N. Y.

OurEngUsh papers, however,repqjtf that up to the.lijdjfof January over one thou sand;. nautical mifes of the new cable were finished, and on that day- the shipping ofthe deep sea portion' upon the Great Eastern was commenced: at Shecrness. Inasmuch as silence concerning the progress of this new work cannot impede it,the cable newsman in London might vouchsafe an occasional word concerning it. The public and press on both sideß of the ocean are interested in it quite as much as they are in many ofthe news mat ters that are thought worthy of being tele graphed daily. Next summer, if all goes right, the new cable will be able to tell its own story, and no favors will be asked of the British line. Our publishers, J. B. Lippincott & Co., having access to the columns of the London Athenaum, carry their little grievance about the Harpers thither for sympathy and conso lation. It seems to us that a conspicuous opportunity is now offered for Messrs. Har per Brothers to come up with a reply, if they have any. The following is the note from Messrs. Lippincott: ‘'Philadelphia, Jan. 1, 1809. —We beg leave to call the attention of English authors and publishers to the following simple state ment offsets which concern them no less than ourselves* “In accordance with our custom when re pulibshihg English books to make, if pos sible, a special arrangement with the author, or otherwise to lay aside a portion of the profits resulting from the publication for his use, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Dilke’s publishers to reprint an American edition of his ‘Greater Britain.’ This was as far back as May, 1868, and immediately thereafter we made public announcement that the book was forthcoming. It waß published in De cember. A few weeks previously to its appearance, however, and some five or six months after we ourselves had announced theiook, the Messrs. Harper & Brothers also made public advertisement that they were about to issue it. They had been already sufficiently notified of our intention to repub lish ‘Greater Britain;’ but as Boon as we be came aware of their purpose, we informed them bv letter of our arrangement with the author* The Messrs. Harper, however, per sisted in their determination; and, as a conse quence, Mr. Dilke's work, bearing their imprint and offered at a nearly nominal price, is now before the trade. Of course, the author's anticipated profits, no less than our own, will be precluded by a proceeding so directly in contravention of the courtesies of the trade, and so well calculated, if persisted in, to destroy the remuneration to which for eign. authors are equitably entitled. “A similar course to that above mentioned was, we regret to say, pursued by the house in question on the appearance of Mr. Trol lope’s ‘North America;’ and the unremunera tive price at which that work was published by Messrs. Harper destroyed our profits and, of course, prevented the author from receiv ing the share which otherwise would have accrued to him from the edition published by us. “As our object in making this communica tion is simply to place ourselves right before the public, we rej'rain from comment on the facts now presented. Whatever injury may result to English authors and publishers should such practices become the rule in stead of the exception, the responsibility will not rest upon us. “J. B.

The A them rum's correspondent at Naples writes: “A new room for bronzes has been opened 1 in the Museum, in which are placed soma of Xhe capolavori of Art There is for instance, -iAhe large equestrian statue of the youthful '''N dm the second in Europe for artistic beauty, i andobly second to that of the Emperor Mar cus Aurelius, in the Piazza of the Capitol, in Rome. In this room, too, will be seen the ancient Greek and Roman arms, and the del I mets of gladiators. In short, it will be, or , is, an unique collection of monuments of th4t? genre. In a short time the entire coLkseifan of bronzes will be completed, with Uxq'Mon ing of rooms, gantly perhaps,'tbgi'SwSllAnqL be another museum in the can rival ‘bat of Naples in this spqcjal dffilSetiqn. The room intended for mosaic? is Dearly fin ished, as also tha' for the Sauai-rilievi. At the commencement of the new year the large room of the Pinaco theca will have the wall and pave ment decorated and arranged, and in this will be hung the most precious pictures of the gallery. Much remains to be done; but with the zeal and intelligence displayed by the Director, the Commendatore Fiorelli, and by Cav. Salazaro, who has the management of the Pinacotheca, we may hope that the grand monument of Art, the Museum of Naples, will be raised to that elevation which it has a right to claim. A friend communi cates to me a piece of intelligence which will awaken considerable interest in England: it is that he haß found a large, life size portrait, mezzo-buslo, of Cardinal York, the last of the Stuarts. It was painted by Pompeo Bat umi, and as a painliDg, he says it is eorpo d'opera. My friend has written to Rome to have a copy of the likeness of the prelate, which is carved on his tomb in St. Peter’s, and for this purpose has employed an eminent engraver At present, the details of the dis covery have not been made public; but as soon as the inquiries are completed, the re sults will be given to the world.” ' Twenty-four silhouettes by a German artist named Konewka, in illustration of Shake speare b Midsummer Night’s Dream,engraved by Vogel, and published at Heidelberg, at tract the warmest commendation of the Pall Mall Uuzettc: The illustrations are in a style which is not uncommon in Germany. The figures are all black, on a tinted ground, and the expres sion is gained in the profiles and outlines. • It is quite wonderful, what delicacy of sugges tion and pictorial charm the artist has given to these dead black surfaces, the bounding lines of which are the only means he has for ■ :?’ii ■■- _^f^aJes«^iiifiss^a»-„„ - -* J .„,...... THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHIIADELPHIA, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 1869. conveying his thought,, The figures are sup ported on or embowered amidst convention ally treated toliage, or sometimes a mere pat tern of conventional lines. These ate chosen With singular taste, disposed with; masterly : ekiltf and form in each case an expressive, commentary on the situation or character delineated. 5' HThh first silhouette; for example*, isthatof old'Egens, who stands onjtwißted and angular ; ibranches of oak—the scanty leaves and acorns ; aid iwilful vigorous joints of which give us at j once a bint of the nnbrekeri will which claims to dispose ol Hermia , according to the “ancient privilege of Athens.” He bends forward,- supported on hits staff; his courtier's rapier sticks out behind; 'the keen, obstinate, aged face has an acrimonious and yet defer ential loquacity impressed upon it In the next drawing Hermia raises her right hand to heaven, while her left holds Lysander’s right as she swears her “pretty oath” to be with him on the following night. There.is some thing characteristically Herman in the simple and yet severe characters of these figures — they remind us of the sweet atmosphere of “Hermann and Dorothea.” The ar tist’s versatility ,is well' ’ seen in the following figure, ah almost sublimely comic Bottom reciting in Ercles’ vein, stage light nings playing about his ffcet Here we get accurately the same kind of impression as that left by the original character, Which, as Carlyle says of Dogberry, “tickles onr very hearts," and excites quite sb much sympathy as ridicule. The lean, decrepit old weaver, in an ecstasy of stage frenay, lifts one fright ful hand on high .and shows us a snub ple beian profile, raised into a sort of dignity by his artist’s self forgetfalness. In his repre sentations of the fairy world Herr Konewka has created a third variety of interest. They have, with one exception, no wings, but seem to take tbe power of flight from the subtlety and chaste lissomeness of their ex quisite forms. It is vain ttrseek for words to convey tbe secret of imaginative art of this the highest kind. The incidents chosen show tbe artist's complete sympathy with his sub ject almost as well as his treatment of them. Oberon “in the shape of Corin,” sits “play ing on pipes of corn, and versing love to amorous Phillida” —the two figures being in volved in a beautiful design of Then the fairy mother of Titania’s “little changeling boy,” “sails upon the land with pretty and with swimming gait”—a subject, as tbe context will BUggest, of the greatest difficulty, but which Herr Konewka has treated with perfect delicacy and delightful success. But what shall we say of Titauia in love with Bottom '( Simply this: that it is one of the most perfect and most perfectly realized conceptions that we have ever met with in art. Bottom’s solid earthinoss and unchanged vulgarity, and the airy loveliness of Titania, who floats before himin adoratioD —these formless ideas are stamped with the creative power of genius in this exquisite drawing. But we have said enough to indi cate our opinion of Herr Konewka’s work. In each of the three departments of interest which we have mentioned he appears to us to reach and to maintain throughoat the highest excellence. On the whole, we doubt whether book illustrations equal ia all kinds of merit to these have ever been seen betore.” A Colorado paper furnishes the following account of a singular work of far western art: “Charles OBtner, a native of Baden, and for the last four years a farmer on the Upper Payette, Boise county, Idaho, has chiseled a full-sized equestrian statue of Washington in military dress, out of mountain fir—using only a common chopping axe, a hand saw, a chisel and a gouge in the operation. It is said by gentlemen of cultivated tastes who have seen it, to be, considering its origin, a most wonderfully perfect work ot the chisel. It was presented to the Territory of Idaho, through the Legislature, on the Bth inst. A temporary pedestal was erected on the corner of Idaho and Seventh street, Boise City, and after a procession and military salutes, the statue was unveiled in the presence of a large concourse of enthusiastic people. Hon. J. R. Mcßride made the presentation speech on the part of the Governor, and Hon. Frank Gan ahl responded on the part of the legislative Assembly. Ostner, the sculptor, was bom in Baden in 1828, became involved in the Hungarian rebellion of 1848, and came to New YorX in 1849, and to California in LB5O. He went to the Florenoe mines in Northern Idaho in iB6O, and in 1864 settled upon a farm in Boise county, where he chiseled Washington out of the fir. Lafayette College. At the recent meeting of the Trustees of Lafay ette College the Department of Ancient Lan guages was divided. Dr. Coleman retains the Latin and Hebrew, &Dd Adjunct-Professor Toungman wae promoted to the chair of the Uretk Language and Literature. Mr. James Moore, A. M., was elected Adjbnct-Professor of Mechanics and Natural Philosophy; Professor Hitchcock was made Resident Professor of Geology, with a view of devoting more of his time to the enlarge ment .of the Geological and Mineralogl cal Cabinets. Professor Wailing, who was en gaged only for a course of Lectures, was also made , resident Professor, and intends giving his whole crime to the Engineering Department. He has organized the senfiftr class as an engineering r corps, to go through all the necessary operations f&r constructing a railroad from Easton to some selected terminus; both the field and office work, ' including drafting and calculation, being per formed under hiß immediate direction. E. S. Moffat, M. E., a graduate of the Co lninbln School of Mines, was (deeted Adjtmot of Mining and Metallurgy, and this de partment also pHt on a practical basis.embracing actual work in tbe laboratory, field, and furnace, and rolling mills, accompanied by text book, stndy, and lectures. Large appropriations were made for this department, as well as lor that of practical chemistry,which now includes not only the laboratory practices of general chemistry, both inorganic and organic, but an ex tended course of qualitative analyses, reaching through two years. All the departments of the Pardee Scientific Course were arranged so that both theory and practice shall be thoroughly taught, and with a view of securing tbe latest information as to the course of study, the methods of teaching, and the appuralDß necessary for the advanced students of the course, President Cattell was directed to visit tbe most celebrated Polytechnic schools of Europe, and report to the Board what farther Improvements may be needed at Lafayette. The additional endowment of two hundred thousand dollars (©200,000) was reported to have been completed, and the Board were time ena bled to raise the salaries of the Professors, who now number twenty-one, thus providing amply for all tho various departments of instruction, both in tbe Classical Course and in the Pardee Scientific Department. —Free Prtss.

Thi* great enterprise i* approaching completion with a rapidity that aetcnlehes the world. Over fifteen (1600) hundred mile* bavo been built by two (2) powerful com* paniee; the Union Pacifii Railroad* beginning at Amalia* building west, and the Central Pacific Railroad* begin* ning at Sacramento* and building oust* until tho two roads shall meet. Leie than two hundred and fifty miloa remain to be built The greater part of tho interval is now graded, and it is reasonably expected that tho through connection between San Francisco and New York will bo completed by July t As tho amonnt of Government aid given to each is de. pendent upon the length of road each shall build, both companies are prompted to great efforts to secure the construction and control of what* when completed* will be one and the onlv errand Railroad Line connecting the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. One Hundred and Teh Million Dollars (8110,000,000) in money have already been expended by tho two powerful companies engaged in this great enterprise, and they will speedily complete tbe portion yet to be built When the United States Government found It necessary to secure the construction of the Pacific Railroad, to develop and protect Its own interestjt gave the companies authorised to build itsucli ample aid Os should, render Us speedy completion beyond a doubt Tbe Government aid may be briefly summed up as follows: First—Tho right of way and all necessary timber and stone from public domain. Second—lt makes a donation of 12.800 acres of i»wd to the mile* which, when the road is completed, will amount to twenty-three million (23.000,000) acres, and all of it within twenty (20) miles of tho railroad. 1 bird—lt loans the companies fifty million dollar,, (850,000,000), for which it takes a second Lieu. The Government has already loaned the Union Pacific Railroad twenty four million and fifty-eight thousand dollars (824,058,000), and to the Central Pacific K-ilroad seventeen million six himSrod and forty-elgbt thousand dollars ($17,618 000), amounting In all to forty-one million seven hundred and six thousand dollars (841.70d.0Ui). Tbe Companies are permitted to issue their own Pint Mortgage Bonds to the same amount as they leccive from the United States, and no more. The companies have sold to permanent investors about ($4O 000.000) forty mil lion dollars of iheii tint Mortgage Bond*. The corn* panic* have already paid in (including net e&rniogß not divided, grunts from State of California, and Sacramento city and ban Francisco , upwards of (s2a,ut)o,ouo) twonty. five million dollars of capital stock. WHAT 18 THERE YET TO HE DONB? In considering this question it mußt bo remembered that all the remaining Iron to finish the road is contracted fer, and tbe largest portion paid for and now delivered on the line of tbe Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific Railroad, and tbat the grading is almost finished. WHAT RESOURCES HAVE THE COMPANIES TO FINISH THE ROAD t First—They will receive from tbe Government as the road progresses about $9,0UQ,000 additional Second—They can issue their own First Mortgage Bonds for about $3,060,000 additional. Third—The companies now hold almost all tho land they have up to this time received from the Govcrmnsni; upon the completion of the road they will have received in all 23,000,000 acre*, which at 81 60 per acre would be worth $34*600 000. te- In addition fo the above tbe net earn of the roads and additional capital. If necessary, could be called In to finish the road. WAY BUSINESS ACTUAL EAJIMt 08, No one bu ever expressed & doubt that m «000 u the road is completed tta through business will be abundantly profitable. Grow earnings of the Union Pacific Rail road Company for tux months ending January Ut 1869, were upwards of 88.00a.y00 The earnings of Central Pacific Railroad, for elx months, ending January Ist, 1869. were Ex pens or Interest. Net profit of Central Pacific Railroad,after payiog all Interest and expenses for six month* The present grots earnings of the Union and Central Pacific Rallioads are 61.200,000 monthly. HOW LARGE A BUSINESS 18 IT SAFE TO PREDICT FOR THE GREAT PACIFIC RAILROAD? We would give the following facto derived from Ship ping Lists Insurance Companies, Railroads and general information: Ships going from tho Atlantic around Cape Horn, 100 Steamships connecting at Panama with Cali- fornia and China, 66—/ 120.0C0 tons.

I.—The Georgetown Col lege Cadets, abput one hundred strong, under command pi Captain Sheridan, were received by tho President this morning In the East Kootn of the White House. They executed various mili tary manamvres in an admirable manner. A congratulatory address was made to the Pre sident by the Captain, which led to a somewhat lengthy response from the President. He re ferred to bis devotion to the country and his ef forts to preserve the constitution from violence, and in alluding to the dangers which the country was liable to bo subject to, through Incompetent rulers, said: “Restrictions most be placed upon those who have power.

As- for myself) 1 acknowledge no man as my master: tbe fundamental principles that 1 have laid down through my public life have been strictly adhered to. The President then delivered a lengthy address on the bisiory of the Constitu tion, and spoke strongly against “tinkering’’ with it by amendments. He said that he had nover exercised any power outside ol the Con stitution, and thought that rallier than exercise doubtful power It should be suspended until tne will ol tbe people could be consulted. Quito a number of spectators were present dur ing the speech, and considerable interest was manifested at tbe remarks made.

GEORGIA Some Startling Disclosures—s34,ooo missing. [Correßpondeoce of tho New York World.] Atlanta, Ga.. January 27, 186 b —Wo have had a “startling disclosure," which nas caused no lit tle rxcitemen t, and no end of discussion in poli tical circles here. Shortly after tho meeting of the Legislature, it was rumored that the great Ex prois Governor had issued several hundred thou sands opdofiars in bonds of the Btatc of Georgia, had hypothecated them with a bank of New yorifTHnd had raised a large amount upon them which, iastead of finding its way into the State Trcasery to be paid out according to [aw, had unaccountably strayed inlo the breeches pockets of the C- O. D. unbeknownst to the Treasurer, to the Constitution, or to the laws regulating public property, and so general was the rumor, It was thought that aiitile inquiry in the shape of a reso lution would be advisable. N. L. Angler, State Treasurer, was called upon to communicate pretty much all he knew or could ascertain abont tbe issue, sale, and hypo thecation of Btate bonds, and especially as to who got the money, and for what purpose. To this comprehensive question the aloresaid Augier re sponded that “his Excellency Gov. Bullock" had delivered to tbe agent of the Fourth National Bank of New York the trifling little sum of $BlO, 000 in bonds of tbe State of Georgia; that the bank had advanced npon these bonds .at various times, and remitted to the treasurer 8315.000: that the bank agent wrote Augier that, after con sultation with Bullcck it was not deemed ad visable to sell the seven per cent, bonds, “it being considered by many that Ihe Legislature authorizing them was an illegal body:” that Augier called for an account, and found that the bank, besides crediting itself with tbe $315,000, also look credit for “a large amount” which Augier “knew nothing about;” that Augier. not “knowing how to account for these credits,” im mediately went to New York to get a fall expla nation of them, and that, having gone to the bank, be fonnd that Governor Bollock had drawn thirty-five thousand dollars, “which amount never has been paid in nor reported to the Trea surer by Governor Bollock." If this is not a startling disclosure, what is? EveD O’Neil was manifestly disturbed by it, and Mr. Ben. Conley, who now presides over the Senate of Georgia, “couldn’t make it out no how.” As one of the Bullock drafts for $lO,OOO is in favor of the Messrs. Kimball, who have built the “operatic capilol” in this city, the report is circulated that Bullock is in partnership with them in their building operations, and that be used the fundß of the State in order to help the firm. As the State did not owe a dime to Kimball, it is not easy to account for the draft in any other way The draft for $lB,OOO in favor of Bullock himseli is supposed to have been used to pay the Bullock expenses while decrying the credit of the State among tbe capitalists of New York, and trying to annihilate the State, and make everything “ a kinder provisional” at Washington. The name of the payee of the remaining draft for $17,000 is not given, so that the disposition of that sum is still wrapped in profound mystery. UCBMEBI, IKON. AC.
