NEW PUBLICATIONS A FAIR MT. "The Transcript Building. A Descrifs tion of the Noble Pile and its Dedication. By John Quill." Philadelphia, Trartecript Office. Before the colored dust wears off its wings, we feel that we should imprison this butter fly a moment, and spell out some , Of the markings that distinguish it., The fate Of the local squib, intended to be ephemeral, is to be forgotten on the morrow; all the more reason then, that the daily journal, itself doomed every night, should recognize the surprising transit that has blessed the day with one laughing hour. Still more graceful and tileasantis the duty when the Qaill - that has etcried out the joke is an old neighbor and hearty collaborator of the quill now inked in its praise. When the beauteous Colonel G—, of the Sunday Transcript, determined to instal himself in, new quarters commensurate with hilown comeliness and dignity, he engaged John Quill, as reporter, to bik en' hand and duly. magnify the scene. Quill, finding the occasion, as planchette says, "inspirational," produced on it such a mad mixture of history and fable, such a running stream of hits, such a set of profiles of magnates supposed to have been , present, as has hardly been matched, we think, since the Smiths celebrated the re building of , Drury Lane Theatre. The pith of they:Ate is, that the caricatures are lifelike and legible to' perfection, and the bark of it is —at allnventeeworse than its bite. The sa tire SO 'good-natured that no offence has been taken, even when 'the hits have been sharp; and the victims have since met and laughed, and, rubbed shoulders, and made by verde Of the epigrhms. The" satire. beguis with eastern magnifi cenee„ by singing the external glories of the' new 2'ranseript edifice. Here is :struck'' at once the likeness to those schemett of vociferous benevolence which hav e s been rung in the public ear until that Organ is nearly paralyzed. The "Noble Pile,'" however lays all previous enterprises on their backs ' . The architecture is Doric lonic, modified by a touch of Low Dutch. so that the general effect reminds ono of the Pad palace; combined with the Parthenon at Athens, a Chinese josh-house, and a herring warehouse at Amsterdam. Magnificent fluted pillars of solid soapstone sweep upward to a facade of variegated sheet-iron. The archi traVe is of Russia leather, studded as thickly as the starry firmament with costly brass headed nails, and reaching to the rear of the building, quite down into the back yard. The awnings are of figured satin, each with a de sign representing some incident in the life of the proprietor. The walls, constructed of fine white Italian marble and cannel coal, ar ranged in blocks so as torepresent a checker board, excepting that here and there are in terspersed solitaire diamonds, topazes, ite., to give an appearance of festivity and. gayety to the whole. The battle ments are composed of cigar -boxes, "with the stamps on," trimmed with real point-lace sax inches deep. The azure robe of night was expressly torn to set the stars of glory on the Transcript's flag, while the bane of the edifice plunge downward into ii reitable breweries skating rinks, and parks with tame shooting. The interior, seen by the fine rolling eye of the reporter, is still more exciting, if possible; we need only men tion that the editorial library boasts 1,000,022 volumes, bound in turkey,silver-plated, with patent burglar-proof duplex-elliptic clasps. The, editors work amidst mirrors and galleries of the old masters, soothed by a grand piano. Their lucubrations are committed to a fore man,whose person is decorated with a medal awarded at the Exposition for "general mag nificence." This individual examines the proofs through a $7OO glass eye, cast "ex press" at Miliville, N. J. It is thrilling to know that such magnificences are at this mo ment transpiring within a few steps of our office, and that on the left hand as on the right the BULLETIN is supported by the proudest feats of journalistic leger-de main. The report, however, goes pack to the ceremonies of the dedication. And it is hers that the eublimities of the great men of Philadelphia are most superbly hit off. The Adonis-like Colonel first gives largess to the newsboys, whose little stomachs can hardly have digested the Christmas dinner so sump tnonaly served to them on the diagonal corner. Each youth receives a Tennyson, a high hat, a gold-headed switch and a pair of empty waffle-irons, and a promise of editions of tue Transcript gratis for the future. The inge nuous urchins, of course, turn away to hide the silent tear of gratitude, and "having hid den it," face about to receive the speech. I this modern Ecclesiastes is enshrined tht golden sentiment: "Never play marbles for keeps, and do bet pennies on euchre, unless you hold both bowers and the ace." But the crowning effort of the report is where the banquet,and the literary stare there gathered, are taken oft. These noble satellites, having imbibed all the delicacies and indelicacies of the season (cooked in Paris by Tortoni,and brought over air tight), and wiped their lips upon Brussels-lace nap kins edged with mauve ribbon, proceed to show their mettle in a series of speeches of the true post- prandial ring. That of the re condite editor of the Noctes Ambrosiance, for example, contains the following jet of linked sweetness : In the year 1738, in the month of January, while my old chum Ben D' Israeli and I were driving home in my hansom from a ball given at the villa of my friend Lord Fitzboodle (he was a eon of the Marquis of Backwater, first cousin of Vicount Darnhim, who married one of the Whackerses of Berkshire, in 1710, and was the father of two fine boys, Lord George and Lord Henry Ferguson, both of whom went out to India, where the Lord George died, and Lord William Henry married Hon orable' Augusta Ramehameheebhoy, only child of a native prince. The Whackerses were celebrated in their day for the posses sion of a superior receipt for hard ginger bread. Often and often have I eaten it at their house, taking it from the hand of Sophy, who was actually in love with me. I didn't reciprocate, and so she married Lord Bugle, son of the Earl of Powow, and brother of my friend Lord Fitch'', who married one of the Toobers of London (related by the way to the famous Lady Straddles— a great leader of fashion in her day; and site ter-in-law of Sir John Hives, K.C.B. whom I knew well), and had his leg shot ()feat Bal akiava, of which accident he sent me an af fecting account in a private letter. The off spring Of that match , James Thomie, who has recently married into the Hopkins family, of which the bead is Sir John Hopkins, of Hopkins Manor, Wiltshire (his daughter is wile of Colonel Duganne of the Guards, bro ther of Lord Smiley,who killed O'Flaherty of Cork, and uncle of young 'ensign O'Flaherty of the Nineteenth, in a duel), who married Sarah Vickers, an old friend of mine, and a Oh whom I warmly congratulated when her sister accepted one of the Muldoons of Tipperary, a direct descendant from King Brian Bern, a brother of the Earl of Leh:tater, and one of the famous three (of which I was one) who were actually the only efficient royalists in the rebellion of '4B. But I wan der. While my friend Ben and Disraeli and I Arid here is the curled darling of our police cases, the silver-tongued 01).: "Yes,'? Said Mr. D—gherty, "in that su- preme hour the American eagle, circling in the empyrean, and making the welkin Of heaven echo withhissereame,will hover over the hero's (A.J's.) rnajeatic form and fan him witlvits mighty raplenS; While the tribute fla tlets, awakened by the peund,shall flock from shores Of farthest Ind; from the icy barriers of the Rhone, to the golden cdast of the Pa cific; froth far- off Asia to' where the Alpine summits rear their heads amid eternal snows; froth the caverns *here old ocean beats amid the shadows of eternal night, to the perfume breathing shores of Araby the Blest, to yield to this giant among men, this god of,. demi.gods,the fragrant incense of their heart- I felt devotion. This, to you, sirs, may seem but the fancy of the poet's brain, a beautiful dream,_which will dissolve before the morn ing's sun of actuality. Perhaps it is,but know that I have a reputation to sustain, and that I am obliged to spread myself in this heroic strain whenever I get the least chance. You just ought to hear me in court some time when lam on a larceny case! Talent, sir,' talent." The genial editor of the Bitem, escapin from the claims of his million subscriber , finds time to attend and vindicate the fame bf a too reticent poet in our midst: "It has been America's proud privilege to produce a dramatist who has not only left his mark upon the literature of his country, but has consigned the productions of his predk cessors to the musty, dusty shelves of anti quarian libraries; a man, sir, who combines within himself all the elements of greatness; who in his fourfold capacity of dramatist, ed itor, wine-seller and base-ball player, contri butes more than any other to the intellectual and physical needs of his fellow men. Shall I name him? No; modesty forbids. But you will recognize this great genius at once—you will perceive whom I proclaim as THE GREAT AMERICAN DRANLATisr—The Champion Play Jeiker of the United States, wheal hint that the first letter of his last name is Thomas Fitzg-r-ld, the agent , of the. fatuous Barn Door champagne, and the editor of the 13itens; a journal, Mr. Chairman, whose discriminat ing critic has been quick to perceive the great merit of such Plays as "Light at Last," "Tangled Threads," 'Wolves at Bay,"and has not hesitated fearlessly to de - lare them the most magnificent ever written; a journal, sir, that should be •ierevery family; price, three dollars per annum, with a reduction for clubs; a journal, sir, to which I ask every gentle man here to subscribe, and to facilitate this design 'I have furnished lead pencils and cards to receiVe names. John, hand these around to the gentlemen." The other orators are usually well reported; there Is something broad-church and catholic in Beecher's obliging the company with a ballad to the air of "Rake her down, Ball;" and something almost Homeric in the stir - prising fancy of the author of "The Podesta s Daughter" softly impeaching himself with the perpetration of the Ledger's obituaries and the poetical ad vertisements of the step-shops. Oar distin guished Kelley's accent also is well repro (Weed. But the cream of the thing is in the Honorable Mr. Richard's response to the toast of "Woman:" . _ "In every position in life," said Mr. V—x, "woman is beyond calculation valuable. When we consider her in her maternal capa city, we must perforce admit that she has no rival; if we regard her as the source from whence in helpless incipiency we derive that laqteal sustenance which affords nourishing assurance that our corporeal nature is not to be , permitted to endure the frightful pangs of gradual starvation, we must admit that she is not equaled by any one; when we look upon her as an energetic and capable engineer of those arrangements by which the soiled habili ments which erat adorned our persons are ,purified and fitted again by wash ing and the application of ferruginous caloric to be again assumed, we look about in vain for her superior. As the second of high con tracting parties at a matrimonial festival, she cannot be excelled; and it is exceedingly dubitable if any-human being could so judi ciously, fitly, and acceptably occupy the posi tion of a sister. * * * * Where would be the millinery business without her? The manufacturers of those infinitesimal particles of cranial adornment designated by the un reasonable cognomen of bonnets, would be reduced to penury without woman, and man d , prived of his largest opportunity to dispos ses himself of that contaminating dross, af fection for which is the radical cause of evil. No,' exclaimed the Honorable Richard V—x, am here to-night as her cuarapion, and when I declare boldly that every female of the human race with whom I am acquainted is a woman, I give utterance to a fact from which I derive exultant Satisfaction." Those who have often applauded the after dinner speeches of our professional "ban quetists" will be delighted to match these specimens with what they have heard before. We leave our readers, therefore, with a good taste in their mouths, by judiciously closing while the dinner is still going on. There is, however,more prime fun to be had ont of this modest pamphlet, for which we refer the public to the counters of the Transcript office, over which the Report will be handed 1.'3 , one of the gilt-edged young men of the establishment. Why, by the by, did the gallant Colonel hide so good a burlesque in so rude an en velope? The libretto is but coarse and com mon in appearance, and its grains of golden wit can hardly be found far the husks of common advertisements which smother them. Why had we not this bright local satire brought out in an edition de luxe adequate to its value ? TEE BICYCLE Mr. J. H. Winser, in the last Galaxy, has made it his business to know all about the velocipede—who rides it, how they stick on, and whether the custom is "falling off;" we extract : THE PRElrlii AM) THE PULPIT Oti THE Y.ELO- Mr. Dana, of the New York Sun, is a skil— ful velocipedist. Ho delights in a sensation of any sort, and finds great pleasure in that which the bicycle affords. He spins upon his diurnal round as surely as the "Sidt" shines, and hitching his steed to a nail in his count ing-room, gives free rein to. his leaders up stairs. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher also is am— bitious to rank among the velocipedists. He thoroughly believes in the Machine, and is diligently striving to master its peculiarities. No man is too old to learn, and Mr. Beecher is certain to succeed. He has purchased two velocipedes for his boys to ride, and in a re— cent lecture on "Ratiunal Amusements," he expressed the opinion that a short time hence a thousand velocipediets would be whirling every Sunday to Plymouth Church, without being amenable to the charge of violating the Fourth Commandment. 130 W TO ETAET WITII A VELOCIPEDE The folloWing rules are laid down by the most skilful operators: Make the first at tempt on a machine of moderate height, in order that your feet may readily touch the round.

Thoroughly understand ing the nature of this, place the right foot upon the pedal, and . folb3W - its movements without assisting them, totiching the left foot on the ground lightly. ; The -difficulty with beginners is to restrain the. unnecessary ex penditure of muscular force;:they ordinarily perform ten times the labor that = is requisite.

After two hotirs' practice the tyro will be able to accomplish- a distance of from thirty to forty yards without running the risk of an upset. Should( the machine incline to one side, all that is necessary` to be done is to remove the foot on the: same side from the pedal and place it on die ground. Ti 3 alight, both feet are raised simultaneously from the treadles, which has the effect of retarding the machine. The feet are then placed oh the ground at the same moment, the tiller being still firmly held by both hands. LONDON, THE EXILE'S ASYLUM Free England him at all, times boasted, as one of her chief tam of ion—laudation, the cordial welcome she offers to oppressed patriots flying from other governments., The irresponsible nature of this welcome, how ever, is pretty clearly depicted by Mr. Justin PllcCarthy,in his reminiscences printed in the current number of the Galaxy, from which we extract the experiences of Louis Blanc,of Garibaldi, and of another Italian, in the way of specimens: LOUIS BLAND IN LONDON. Louis Blanc is, perhaps, the only Revolu tionary exile who, in my: time, has been everywhere and permanently popular in Lon don society. He seems to have honorably construed his place in English society to be that of one to whom ' shelter had been given, and who was bound not to make any use of that shelter which could embarrass his host. In London he ceased to be an active politician. He refused to exhibit himself en victime. , He appealed to no public pity. He made no parade of defeat and exile. He went to work steadily as a literary man, and he had the courage to be poor. When he ap peared in public it was simply as a literary lepturer. He was not very successful in that capacity. At least, he was not what the secretary of a lyceum would call a success. Be gave a series of lectures on certain phases of society in Paris be fore the great Revolution, and they were attended by all the best literary men in London, who were, I think, unanimous in their admiration of the power,the eloquence, the brilliancy which these - pictures of a ghastly past displayed. But the general pub lie cared nothing about the salons where wit, and levity, and wickedness prepared the way for revolution; and I heard. Lotus Blanc pour out an apologia (I don't mean an apology) for Jean Jacques Rousseau in language of noble eloquence, and with dramatic effect worthy ofra:treat orator, in a small lecture room, of 'which three fourths of the splice was empty. Since that time he has delivered lectures occasionally at the request of me chanics' institutions and such societies; but he has not essayed a course of lectures on his own account. Everyone knows him; every one admires his manly, modest character and his uncompromising Republicanism. GARIBALDI AND THE PEERAGE To this day 1 am perfectly unable to under stand the demeanor of the British peerage to ward Garibaldi, when he visited Landon for a few days some years ago. The thing was utterly unprecedented and inexplicable. The Peerage literally rushed at him. He was beset by dukes, mobbed by countesses. He could not by any human possibility have so divided his day as to find time for breakfast ing and dining with one-fifth of the noble boats who fought and scrambled for him. It was a perpetual torture to his secretaries and private friends to decide between the rival claims of a Prime Minister and a Prince of the blood; an Arclabishoptaad a Duchess; the Lord Chancellor and the leader of the Oppo sition. The Tories positively outdid the Whigs in the struggle for the society of the simple seaman, the gallant guerrilla. The oddest thing about the business was, that three out of every four of these noble person ages had always previously spoken of Gari baldi—when they did speak of him at all— with contempt and dislike, as a buccaneer and a filibuster. . • The thing ended in a quarrel between the Aristocracy and the Democracy, between Belgravia and Clerkenwell, for the custody of the hero, and Garibaldi escaped somehow back to his island during the squabble. But I think Lady Palmerston let the mask fall for a moment, when, growing angry at the assu rance of Garibaldi's humbler friends, and per haps a little tired of the whole business, she told some gentlemen of my acquaintance that quite too much work had been made about a person who, after all, was only a respectable brigand. THE NEAPOLITAN REVOLUTIONARY AGITATO Let me close my random reminiscences with one recollection of a sadder nature. Some three or four years ago there came to London from Naples an Italian of high educa tion and character—a lawyer by profession; a passionate devotee of Italian unity, and filled naturally with a hatred of the expelled Bourbons. This gentleman had discovered in one of the Neapolitan prisons a number of instruments of torture—rusty, hideous old iron chairs, and racks, and screws, and "cages of silence," and such other contriv ances. Ho became the possessor of these, and he obtained from the new government a certificate of the genuineness of his treasure trove—that is to say,/ a certificate that the things were actually found in the plane where the owner professed to have found them. The Italian authorities, of course, could say nothing as to whether they had or bad not been used as instruments of torture in any modern reign. They may have lain rusting there since hideous old days when the Inquisition was a fashionable institution; they may have been used—public opinion and Mr. filadetone said things as horrible had been done—in the blessed reign of good King Bombs. The Neapolitan lawyer firmly be lieved that they had been so used; and he be came inspired with the idea that to mire theSe instruments, first to London and then to the United Stites, and exhibit them, and lectpre, on them, would arouse such a tempest of righteous indignation among all peoples,• free or enslaved, as must sweep kingcraft and priesteraft off the earth. This idea became a faith with him. He brought hie treasure'd rusty iron to London, and pro posedi to take a great hall and be-• gin the work of his mission. I endeavored to dissuade him (he had brought some introduc tions to me). I told _him frankly that, just at that time, public opinion in London was utterly indifferent to the Bourbons. The fer vor oflinterest about the Neapolitan Revolu tion had gone by; people were tired of Italy, and Wanted something new; the Polish insur rection was going on; the great American Civil 7ar was occupying public attention; London audiences cared no more about the crimes of the Bourbons than about thitiftlinett , of'the Borgias.. He was not tole dissuadeC He really believed at first that b e could in dike sorde,great English OatZfr; Gladitone or Eright, to deliver "lectures on 'those instru- Wnents and bhp guilt of the system which ein7. ployed thetn. Then he became more moderate, and applied tol thin and that professional 'lecturer—in vain. No 'one would have anything to do with a project so obviously doomed to failure—he himself spoke no English. At last he in duced a lady who was somewhat anibitious of a public career to lecture for him; and he took a great hall for a series of nights, and advertised largely,and went to great expense. I believe he staked all he , had in money or - credit - on the-succesn-of-thn-enterprige; and the making of money was pot hie object; he would have cheerfully given all he had to create a flame of public indignation against . despotism. ,Need I say what a failure the enterprise was? The London pub lic never manifested the slightest interest in the exhibition. The lecture- hall was empty. I believe the poor Neapolitan tried again and again. The public would not come or look, or listen. He spent his money in vain hegot into debt in vain. His instruments of t torture must have inflicted on their owner agonies enough to have satisfied Maniscaloo or Carafe. At last he could bear it no longer. He wrote a few short letters to some friends (I have still that which I received—a' melancholy me morial), simply thanking them for what efforts they had made to assist him in his ob ject, acknowledging that he had been over sanguine, and intimating that he had now given up the enterprise. Nothing more was said or hinted. A day or two after,he locked himself up in his room. Somebody heard an explosion, but took no particular notice. The lady who had endeavored to give voice to my poor friend's scheme came, later in the day. to see him. The door was broken open— and the poor Neapolitan lay dead, a pistol still in his hand, a pistol bullet in his brain. The Errors of the Eye. A paragraph under this head is suggeetive as to the first acquisition of the power of mina the eye aright : "From the time that children begin to distinguish objects, their eyes are liable to be affected by two causes of error. before being able to judge of the position of things sur rounding them, they see everything upside down; they consequently acquire a false im pression of the position of objects. The next cause of error that it likely to mislead them is the fact of their seeing everything double,a separate image of everything being farmed on each eye ; and it can only be by the experience gained through the sense of touch that they can ac quire the. knowledge necessary to rectify these errors, and see those objects single which appear to - them double. This error of sight, as well as the first one, is set right so easily in the end,,that although in reality we see everything double and upside-down, we imagine that we see them single, and in their proper positions, a state of things brought about entirely through another sense exercis ing its power over our judgment; and it is hardly too much to say that, if that sense were deprived of the power •of feeling,: our eyes would deceive us, not—only as to the number but the position of the objects within our view. --lifaricm'a " Wonders of Optics."

THE BLACK HAWK WAR- Abraham Lincoln, Zachary Taylor, 'Moberg Anderson and Jefferson Davis Serve Together---A Letter from Den eras Anderson. [From the Chicago ive"g Journal of March 15.1 The following interest' incident, was stated it a recent address before the Historical Society of this city, by Hon. Isaac N. Arnold : . "In 1832 John' Dixon , kept the ferry across Rock River, and the latch-string of his hospitable home was never drawn in against the stranger. The Black Hawk war was pending, and settlers and whole families had been killed and scalped upon the prairie._ The National Government sent General • Scott, with Some regular troops, to Chicago k and to these were added some compa nies of Illinois mounted volunteers, called out by Governor Reynolds to aid in protecting the set tlers and chastising the Indians. "Among the regulars, who met on the banks of Rock river, at the crossing then , called vi x o k e s‘ Ferry,' under the immediate cemmand of.Gene rat Atkinson k i were' Lieuttniant-Colobelt Zachary Taylor, subsequently,', President of the - United States; Lieutenant Robert Anderson, the hero of Fort Sumter; Lieutenant Jefferson Davis, and private Abraham Lincoln, of Captain Ile's com pany of Illinois Mounted Rangers. These facts I received from John Dixon. a hale man of more than eighty ,yeare, still living. Anderson- and Davis were young Lieutenants, just from, West Point, and Lincoln was a tall and boyish-looking young man of twenty-two. So far as I know, our fellow-citizen, Gordon S. Hubbard, is the only living citizen of Chicago who was engaged in this expedition against Black . Hawk. , _ "When Major Anderson visited Washington, after his evacuation of Fort Sumter, ho called at the White House to pay his respects to the Presi dent. After the Chief Magistrate had expressed his thanks to Anderson for his conduct in South Carolina, Mr. Lincoln said: 'Major, do you re member of ever meeting me before?' No,' re-. plied Anderson, II have no recollection of ever having bad that pleasure.' iMv memory is better than poem,' wild Lincoln. 'You mustered Me into the United States service, as a high private of Illinois volunteers, at Dixon's Ferry, in the black Hawk war.' " The letter from General. Robert Andereon, which follows, corroborates Mr. Arnold's state io went, and gives some additional fac ts - of historic ' interest. • ' ' New Tonic,. Maith:l6,llB69)=-4/oit. 'Law N.

Such has been the Impartiality of your administration here, and such, in particular, your un solicited kindness to the parish of St. Philip's, that we cannot suffer you to depart without expressing to You our sincere thanks for all that you have done for us, and our appreciation of the spirit whit: prompted tt You found the church and congregation of St. Philip's suffering, more than any other church in the clty,from the desolations which war had made. Through your personal liberality and your appeal:s , lo idea& in the North, much of the war-waste has been restored; our church-building has been made comfortable and church-like, and soon will be supplied with a valuable organ, making the fu rn iture of the church complete: and all this you have done la so delicate a manner as to have made the offering acceptable to the poorest, the proudest, or the moat sensitive of the parish. In a note now before us. the beloved Bishop of our dio cese says :—"I desire to unite with you in thanking General Meade for the many kindnesses which he has shown na." In' our social and Church relations with you, our intercourse has ever been harmonious and most pleasant,and we shall ever remember you (apart from our several views on political questions) as an honest, unselfish and liberal Christian gentleman. Ton will long be remembered here, and the work which you have done for the church in Atlanta will abide, and speak your name when the triumphs of the military hero are forgotten and the monuments of the battle-field have crumbled into dust.

Grant asked them if ex-Governor Pollock bad not lately moved to Philadelphia from the country apd if they considered him a city man, to whiclf they replied that they did not.

The President also asked the, Pennsylvanians if they thought a, man whO had, been a good soldier,. a consistent Republican and a faithful of ficer ought to be removed because he had been appointed by Johnbon.
