NEW PUBLICATIONS. Messrs. Fields, Osgood & CtS.-to putting, cut their edition of Charles Read|? s no«ls»t only B dollar the volume, | tlfe thorough popularity of their and j the certainty that, when thcpublic can gain him in a cheap and taking fdtom, this popu larity will spread downward. Reade wil eoon saturate society as Scott did in our fath ers’ day and as Dickens has done in ours. ■ - - Two volumes are now presented. They are plain and simple in appearance, hot without a certain air of medern elegance. The larger is “Hard Cash, "the romance in Which Reade makes his passionate exposure of the private insane asylums. The other contains the plot which, in audacious contempt of both Defoe and E. D. E. N. Southwortb, he sets in a solitary trOpic island. In both these stories we have Reade’s fair defect, the same walking lady endowed with every quality of femininity in general, and therefore neither individual nor true. Two more volumes, “Griffith Gaunt” and •*WbifeLieB f ” are now about ready. In re lation, to these, as. to several others of his works, Mr. Reade has had to keep up a (retried newspaper war against critics who impeached their originality. The contest about the latter (the plot of which is taken from the French) evoked from the author his fpmty on the “The Eighth Commandment,’’ in which he enunciates the startling moral lessoii that arnan of honor m&y purchase a plot flrom another author, elaborate it, pub lish it, and. say nothing about its origin. Messrs, Fields, Osgood & Co; send us this issue through Turner Broß., No. 808 Chestnut street. The Edinburgh author, Mr. R. M. Ballan lyne, author of “Fighting the Flames,” has familiarized himself with the Cornish mines, and throws his experience of mining life into a vivid and absorbing story called “Deep Down."' It is such a strange, fresh narrative of a little-known way of life as could hardly have been written without an intricate fami - Parity with the odd race described. It is a book for young readers, at once safe and stimulating. Messrs. Lippincott issue it as one of their handsome “Globe” series, adorned With the fine English designs.

Fields, Osgood & Co. biß translation of Homer’s Iliad during the present year. The Boston Transcript says: “This announcement will be received with great pleasure by every one who takes a just pride in our national literature. Mr. Bryant’s qualifications fur the task are unu sual, and not the least among them is hid wonderful mastery ot English blank verse. Judging by tbe specimens of the Greek poet which Mr. Bryant has printed from time to time, there is every reason to anticipate that he will achieve for Homer what has never yet been achieved, namely, a literal, and at the same time a thoroughly practical translation into English. Nei ther Pope nor Cowpor can be raid to have left behind him a satisfactory presentation of the great epic. Old British Chapman, in spite of Keats's admiration of him, has the gravest faults; and his rendering of tbe blind poet, though it is certainly very strong aud sono rous, is far from fulfilling the demands of modem taste. Lord Derby ana the late translators scarcely deserve mention in this connection. From Mr. Bryant may confi dently be expected a version that shall leave little for,further attempts in Homeric transla tion. The present era of American literature will be signalized by the production of the worlo’s iwo greatest poems—the ‘Div'me Con.idy,’ translated by Longfellow, and Ho mei’s ‘lliad,’ translated by Bryant.'' nryam’ft JRomlui«cences breubu iiitiit cK. throw into the common fund of society, that In closing his Address on Halleck, lief ire the surest way to be considered ourselves i 3 the New Yolk Bibtoiioul Society, on the '_'i to he considerate for others; that sympathy instant, the venerable poet liryunt remarked : begets liking, and eeli-suppression leads to ‘ When 1 look baik upon Bullock's literary exultation; and that if we want to gain love life 1 chnnot help thinking that if his deatu we must first show how well we can give it. had happened forty years eat iter, his life Her tact, then, and her sympathy, her would have been regaided as a bright morn- moral flexibility, and quirk comprehension ing prematurely overcast.

[From the Ba‘ nrdav Beview. 1 mature sirens. Nothing is ffibre ’incomprehensible to 'giris than the love and admiration sometimes given to middle- aged women. They cannot under - stand it; and nothing but experience will ever make them understand it. In their eyes a woman is out of the palo of personal affec tion altogether when she has once lost That shining gloss of youth, that, exquisite fresh-, ness ol skin and suppleness of limb, which to them, in the insolcnt.plenitiide of their un faded beauty, constitute the chief claims to admiration of their sex. And yet they can not conceal from themselves the belle of eighteen is often deserted for the woman of forty, and that the patent witchery of their own! youth and prettiness goes for nothing agaihst tbe mysterious charms of a mature sired. What can they say to such an anomaly? There is no good reason in going about the world disdainfully wondering ho'w on earth a man could have ever taken up with such an antiquated creature —suggestively asking their male Mends what could he see In a woman Of her age, old enough to be their mother ? There the fact stands, and facta are stubborn things. The eligible suitor who Has been coveted by more than one golden-haired girl jhas married a woman twenty years her senior, and the middle -aged sireii has actually carried off the prize which nymphs In their teenß have frantically desired to win. What iB the secret ? How is it done ? The world, even of silly girls, has got past any belief in spells r and 1 talismans, such as Charlemagne’s mistress wore, and yet the man’s'fascination seems to them quite as miraculous and almost as ufiholy as if it bad been brought about by the black art. But if they had any analytical power they would understand the diablerie of the mature sirens clearly enough, for it is not so difficult to understand when One pats one’s mind to it In the first place, a woman of ripe age has a knowledge of the world, and a certain sua vity of manner and moral flexibility, wholly wanting to the young. Young girls are, for the most part, all angels—harsh in their judg ments, stiff in their prejudices and narrow in their sympathies. Tney are fall of com bativenesß and self-assertion if they are of one kind of young people, or they are stupid and Bhy if they belong to another kind. Tney are talkative with nothing to say, and posi tive with nothing well and truly known; or they are monosyllabic dummies, who stam mer out Yes and No at random, and whose braids become hopelessly confused at the first sentence a stranger niters. They are gen erally without pity; their want of experience making them hard towards sorrows which they scarcely understand, and let us charitably hope, to a cer tain extent, ignorant of the pain they inflict. That famous article in the Times on the cru elty of young girls, apropos of Constance Kent's confession, though absurdly exagger ated, had in it the core of truth which gives the sting to such papers, which makeß tnem stick, and which is the real cause of tbe out cry they create. Girls are cruel; there is no question about it If more passive than ac tive they are simply indifferent to the suffer ings of others; if of a more active tempera ment they find a positive pleasure in giving pain. A girl will say the most cruel things to her dearest friend and then laugh at her because she cries. Even her own mother she I will hurt and humiliate if she can; while, as ; for an unfortunate aspirant not approved of, | were he as tough-skinned as a rbi ! noceros she would find means to make him , wince. But all this acerbity is toned down in the mature woman. Experience has en larged her sympathies, and knowledge of suf i fering has softened her heart to the sufferings ■of others. Her lessons of life, too, have ' taught her tact; and tact is one of the most valuable lessons that a man or woman can learn. She sees at a glance where are the I I weak points and sore places in her compan ' ion, and she avoids them: or if Bhe passes | over them, it is with a hand so soft and ten der, a touch so inexpressibly soothing, that i Bhe calms instead ot irritating. A girl would have come down upon ihe weak places heav ■ ily, and would have torn the bandages off the sore ones, jcßting at scars because she htrsell' lmd never fell a wound, and deriding the sybaritism of Diachylon because ignorant of the anguißh it conceals. Then the mature siren is thoughtful for others. Girls are self-asserting and aggres sive. Life is so strong in them, and the iLßtinct which prompts them to try their Btrength with all comers, and to get the beat of everything every where, is so irrepressible that they are often disagreeable because of their instinctive selfishness, and the craving natural to the young of taking all and giving back nothing. But the natural siren knows better than this. Bhe knows that social suc cess depends entirely on what each of us can '-!Th& Vulture Bjfren is wiser than this.

Her figurp;,is4^illvgdqti— not'slim and Blender certainm buQrotiad and soft, and with that slower, ripeiylazier grace which is something quite different from the antelope-like elasticity of youth;: and inlts? own way as lovely. If her hair has lost its maiden luxuries she makes up iwith crafty arrangements of lace, which are almost as picturesque as the fashionable wisp of hay like ends tumbling ■ half way /tor thej waist She has still her white and shapely hands with their pink fiibeit-likenalls; still' her pleasant smile and square small teeth' her eyes are blight yet, and if the upper mqscles are a little shrunk, the consequent apparent enlargement of the orbit only makes them more expressive; her lips are not yet withered, her skin is not wrinkled. Undeniably, when wel| dressed and in a favorable light, the ma ture siren is as beautitui in her own way as the girlish belle; and the world knows it and acknowledges it. That mature sirens can be passionately loved, even when very mature, history gives us niore than one example; and tho first name that naturally occurs to one’s mind as the type of this is that of the too famous Ninon de l’Enclos. And Ninon, if a trifle mythic&l, was yet a fact and an example. • But notgoing quite to Ninon’s age, we often see women of forty and upwards who are personally charm ing, and whom men love with as much warmth and tenderness as if they were in the heyday of life—women who count their ad - mirers by dozens, and who endby making a superb marriage and having quite an Indian summer of romance and happiness. The young laugh at this idea of the itadian sum mer for a bride of forty-five; but it is true; for neither romance nor happiness, neither love nor mental youth, is a matter of years; and after all we are only as old ad we feel, and certainly no older than we look.' All women do not harden by time, nor. wither, nor yet corrupt. .Borne merely ripen, and mellpw nnd get enriched by the passage of’thfl: years, re taining the most delicate womanliness—we had almost said girlishneßß-rinto quite old age, and blushing under* their; grey hairs while they shrink from anything coarse or vulgar or impure as sensitively as when they were girls. La femme d quarante ans is the French term for the opening of the great gulf beyond which love cannot pass; but hu man history disproves this date; and shows that the heart can remain freßh and the per son lovely long after the age fixed for the j final sdleu to admiration, and that the ma lure siren can be adored by her own contem poraries when the rising generation regard her as nothing better than a chimney-corner fix ture. Mr. Trollope has recognized the claims of the mature siren in his Or ley Faim anji Miss Mackenzie: and no one can deny the intense naturalness of the char acters and the interest oi the stories. Another point with the mature woman is that she is is not jealous nor exacting. She i knows the world, and takes what comes with the philosophy that springs from knowledge. If she is oi an enjoying nature —and she can not be a siren else —she aceepts such good as floats to the top without looking too deep iutothecup and speculating on the time when she shall have drained it to the dregs. Men feel safe with her. If they have entered on a tender friendship with her they know that there wilt be no scene, no teare, no up braidings, when an inexorable fate comes in to end their pleasant little drama, with the inevitable wife as the scene-shifter. The mature siren knows so Weil that fate and the inevitable wife must break in between her and her friend, that she is resigned from the first to what is foredoomed, and so accepts her bitter - portion when it cornea, with digDity and in silence. Where younger women would fall into hysterics and make a scene,perhaps go abont the world taking their revenge in slander, the middle aged woman holds ont a friendly hand and takes the back seat gallantly, never showing by word or look that she has felt her depo sition. She becomes the best friend of the new household; and if anyone is jealous, ten to one it is the husband that iB jealous of her love for his wife, or perhaps it is the wife hei self, who cannot see what her husband can find to admire so much in Mrs. A and who pouts at his extraordinary predilection for her, though of course she would scorn to be jeaious—as, indeed, she has no cause. For even a mature siren, however delightful (he may be, is not likely to come before a young wife in the heart of a young husband. Though the French paint the love oi a woman of forty as pathetic, because slightly ridiculous and certainly hope less, ye} they’arrange the theory of their social life so that a youth is generally sup posed to make his first love of a married woman many years his elder, and a mature siren finds her last love in a youth. We have not come to this yet in England, either in theory or practice; arid it is to be hoped that we never shall come to it. Mature sirens arc all very well for men of their own age, and it is pleasant to see them still loved and admired and to recognize in them the claimß of women to something higher than mere personal pas sioD; but the case would be very different if they became ghoulish seducers of the youDg, and kept up the habit of love by entangling boyish hearts and blighting youthful lives. As they are now, they form a charming element in society, and arc of infinite use to the world. They are the ripe fruit in the garden where else every thing would be green and immature—the last days of the golden summer just before the chills of autumn come on; they contain in ibt mselves the advantages of two distinct epochs, and while possessing as much person al charm as youth, possess also the gains which come by experience and maturity. They keep things together as the young alone could not do; and no gathering of friends is perfect which haß not one or two mature sirens to give the tone to the rest, and pre vent excesses. They soften the asperities of bigli-handed boys and girls, which else would be too biting; and they set people at ease, and mslce them in good humor with them selves, by the courtesy with which they listen to them, and the patience with which they bear with them. Even the very cirls who hate them fiercely as rivals, love them passing well as half mater nal half-sisterly companions; and the firs', person to whom they would carry their sor rows would bo a mature siren, quite capable on her own part of having caused them. It would be hard indeed if the loss of youth did not briDg with it some compensations; but the mature siren suffers less from that loss than any other kind of woman. Indeed, she stems to have a private elixir of her own whielj iB not quite drained dry when she dies, beloved and regretted, at threeseore years and ten; leaving behind her one or two old friendp who were once her ardent lovers, and who gtill cherish her memory as that of the lineet;and most fascinating woman they ever knevrf-something which the present genera - tion is utterly incapable of repeating.

' The intelligence from Madrid thal'the Stale has stricken the Church with a bold sweep of the civil arm,and that the blow has been hailed with popu lar plaudits, followed by a general rage at the as sassination of tbc Governor of Burgo9 while he was execution tbo national behest, and a .sequent, withdrawal of recognition from the Papal Nuncio, will eminently gratify every lover of rational religion and civil liberty. We rejoice—every mao who can conceive the com rpaes of a possible manhood must exult—to behold those nurseries and fortresses of despotism, the • European hierarchies, one after another, in the Strong grasp of civilization; no longer formidable . with the terrors of the past, bat opulent only in the hoarded epoils ofages, apocryphal relics, and , impotent malice, chattering invectives and ex communications almost too meaningless for mockery, and frittered Is consequence from tbo command of fleets and armies to tho little and dastardly measure of an assassin’s dagger. The Church, evoked to condemnation from twelve centuries of. profaned history, with wasted limbs writhing through the rents of her pnrple, in the trieal, coils,of Austria, Italy and Spain; while a senile and bewildered priest, almost as portionless in tht|iffalrs of Christendom as the Jupiter of the ■ Copltql. ehrieks lean-voiced onathomas Irom the •seat ofHildebrand! With creeds we hove neither concern nor con troversy,.whether they be of Oxford, or Romo, or Geneva, though wo cannot but observe that, in spite ot a reactionary Protestantism which calls itself catholic while disowning the supremacy of the Italian (Jburch, tho drift of religions opinion in the Christian world isfrom solvability through the Sacraments,and towards the Serintures. Nor is 6hr protest given against hierarchies in their Untainted simplicity. We willingly leave to the understanding and consciences of others an ac ceptance of the prelatic interpretation of the Primitive Church order, or that of Calvin and Gibbon. Nor do we perceive that history can be successfully adduced for the consuro of either view! Tho , Archbishops, of tho Empiro, and Kenrick and Ecciestoo, Land and Odcnheuner, tho wltch-buruiug und Qua ker-biingibg ‘ preachers of Poston, and tho mild-mannered ministers who in oar day, con-! eider overtures and dispute about declarations and testimonies, though the same iu kind, are palpably different in spirit. It is priestly domi nation ulono which we detest and depreclte— the rapacity and licentiousness of a secure sacerdo tal custo, that depastures where it should feed,and depraves tho energies of nations. Excessive.and unquestioned powor, whether in Church or Stale, begets arrogance, improbity and license. And-what -have been the-fruits of-tho Spanishhierarcby ?. Let the intrigues of Madrid, tbelmpurlty of Seville, and the ferocity of'Bar celona: be the answer. Priests jnst able to con their breviaries,who saunter from matins to mtfcra' Imprisoned, notby tho mandate of a victorious Invader, bat by a rescript from Madrid, vernacularly Issued—charehoa and convents compelled to the rclinanlshmont of their , llbranes end picturesv-'dlt religions equal: before tho’law—and in Spain—what ear' would' have been open a century ago to tho Cassandra who had predicted such phenomena as these ?

The Chair presented the credentials ‘nry Johnson In his custody, tho recusant witness committed yesterday to his keeping. Mr. Lawrence, Chairman of the Committee on the New York Election Frauds, stated that the witness had appeared before the committee and testified, and that there ecemed to have been a misunderstanding between the witness and the officers who served tho subprohas, as to the room at which tbe committee bad been sitting in New York. Under these circumstances, he offered a resolution that Henry Johnson be discharged from custody. Mr. Brooks asked—Why not say honorably dis charged? Mr. Lawrence supposed that that was unneces sary. Mr. Brooks thought that it was necessary aftot casting contempt upon tho man and bringing him to Washington under arrest. Mr. Woodward remarked that tho only effect of tbe gentleman from Ohio (Lawrence) refusing lo admit tbe statement of the witness yesterday as to his having obeyed the summons, had been tbc disgracelni incarceration of a freeman for twenty, font honrs. Mr. Robineon made the point of order that tho word disgraceful, used by Mr. Woodward, waß a more severe expression than be himself had been called to order for yesterday. The Speaker sustained tbe point of order. Tho witness had been Incarcerated by order of the House, and it wns not proper for a gentleman to denounce the netipn of tho Houeo as disgraceful. Mr. Woodward remarked that tho expression was strictly correct. Thu Speaker—Tho Chair, however, decides otherwise. Mr. Woodward—The House was led to itß de cision by tbegentleman from Ohio refusing to 'jccvpt the statement.of -the witness-yesterday, I hen the Housivyery preporly I think, ctunmii ud him to ihe custody of the Bcrgcaut-at-Arins, ■mt the Hoftse.wos misled into ‘the act by the gt iriUman-from Ohio. , The SpcakerjrsAsjhe Chair views this question fiom a parliamentary and judicial stand-point, itie Cbalr.cunnoteee how “a disgraceful act" can ‘■very nrbprrly" be’done, " ; ■ • Mr. Woodward—lt; I used that word I with draw it- : I say, however, that if tho gentleman trbm Ohio had:accepted the statement "made H'Sterday, the House would not hive don« the vi ry “proper” act of recommitting this citizen.

Ross asked tbo chatrman of tho commit tee whether be was not willing to let tho witness off without payment ef costs... Ho understood that tbe reason why the witness had refused to answer was that his answer would, criminate; a leading Republican in Now Tork, and he hoped the witness would be let off. Mr Lawrence said he had no choice as to what the House should do in the case. He had always supposed that this was the usual and proper coDrse, and he thought it dne to the dignity of ■ the HodSe that at least tho'pnhisbnient proposed •by tbc resolntion should be visited on this wit ness. . ■ , Mr. Kerr thought that the witness should; be discharged without the payment of costs.
