NEW PUBLICATIONS.
. B. Lippincott & Co. Issue a neat and hand
some pocket dictionary of French-English and
Engllsh-Freneb, being a now edition of the work
by Ferdinand E. A. Gam. We have just fotind a
word in it which wo4tad looked for in vain in
the large lexicon of Collot; we are willing, with
out time for much examination, to accept this at
an omen for the correctness of the handy cads
mecum of M. Gast. The book is printed in three
close columns to the page, is without the usual
in enmbrance of an inefficient Grammar, and seems
perfectly adapted to the use of ordinary travelers
and students. •
When spealting,on March 26th,of Auerbach, we
mentioned our desire that the translation by
Goepp, an able Philadelphia German scholar, of
this novelist's early and excellent "Village Sto
ries," should be bunted up to take its place in the
Auerbach rkival. That wish has been fulfilled
sooner„ than we expected, Messrs. Leypoldt
Bolt having put out the translation to match
their "author's edition" of the romancer. The
brightness and movement of these busy little tales
seem to us unmatched in what we know of Ger
man fiction. They appear in this issue inter
spersed with the coarse, odd German cuts, which
fulfil admirably well the responsible function of
ilivarrations, being evidently modeled on authen
tic costumes and types. Received from Turner
Bros
Petnam's presentment of Irving's Life of
Washington in what they call in Europe a
..luxury-edition" is a deserved compliment to a
national standard. The work will be completed
in five volumes, of which two are now ready—
with creamy paper, exquisite library binding,
good steel and wood engravings, broad margins,
and every legitimate beauty. The second volume
is faced by Charles Wilson Peale's interesting
portrait of ; Washington in Continental uniform,
sit the ago of forty. This issue is a part of the
"Knickerbocker Edition" of Irving'e complete
works.—J. K. Simon, agent.
Lewis D. Vail, Esq., has written a "Sketch
of fit. Matthew's P. E. Church, Francisville,
Philadelphia." This is a pamphlet containing a
brief history otfh - e establishment and progress of
one of the oldest — and most prosperous religious
organizations in the city, together with some ac
count of the ancient hamlet of Francisville, once
a remote suburb of Philadelphia, now a portion
of the great city, which stretches far beyond the
limits of the old village. Apart from its especial
interest as the history of a single church. Mr-
Van pamphlet is a valuable contribution to the
local history of this city, and It deserves careful
preservation in our libraries.
The second number of Oar Own, for Mac, smi

ROORBACKS, AND TEE LIKE
The lirooklyn Monthly, for April, contains the
following readable article :
It Is a maxim among newspaper men to die
trust statements which appear in print. News-
Paper men "know the ropes." They are of the
same general type as the scene-shifters in the
theatre; when they set the scenes, they know that
the reverse is unpainted board—tin finisbcd,rough,
matter-or-tact, with no gilding or drapery, or
nonsenre about it.
The newspaper reader, on the other hand, holds
p place similar to that of the map IP the orchea
tra•etall. ho Shape:cis he is the victial
of a best, bti: remembering that all the world's a
stage, and all its men and women merely players,
he dt liht rately elects to pay a handsome price for
the p rivilege of being taken in.

t T. F ix first-class newspaper hoaxes
occur to us at this moment. Deliberate
boa all of them. Hoaxes invented
with a purpose, for a purpose, and all of them
accomplishing a purpose—purposes political, fi
nancial or !sections. To wit:
No. 1. The Moon Hoax—date 1835.
No. 2. The Roorback Hoax—date 1844.
No. 3. The "Slleveuarnmon" Hoax—date 1848.

No. 5. The De Bow Hoax—date 1864.
No. 6. The Lincoln Bioclumation Hoax—date
18114.
A generation has lived and died since the first
nand of these hoaxes appeared it. the columns
of the- New York b'un. It was the prolific fancy
of Richard Adams Locke—a Brooklyn man—
which gave it birth. The "Ituorback" hoax
was a political forgery--levelled against
James K Polk when be ran for the Pro
sideno in 1844. "Slievegammon" was the New
York Ilerald's travesty of Sti•venamon—and
Blievenamon was the New York Tribute-'s name
for a great battle said to have been fought In Ire
land in the bloody days of 1848—but it wasn't.
Let ns revive the Lui.morive of these and other
famous hoaxes, if for no other reason than the
tratification of a laudable curiosity to know
what men gain by concocting false stories.
Loaxes sometimes Mahe a tremendous ruinous

The curious part of this forgery was the inge
nuity with which the actual words of the Eng
lish traveller were used as a setting. Part of the
foregoing extract is a veritable copy of a verita
ble passage in a veritable book of travele,written
by a real Englishman named Fentherstonhaugh
—hut the words in Italics are all interpolated.
Where the Roorback lorger3 reads "Duck river"
the genuine hook says "New river"—the conclud
ing passage is pure invention. English travelers
have told some huge fibs about us (witness Trol
lope and Dickens), but Mr. Featnerstonhaugh
will not be required to answer for this particular
pe cendillo at the Lost Day.
The Ithaca Chronicle's pretended extract was
eagerly copied into the Albany r coning Journal
on Monday, September 16, 1844, and "my lord
Thurlow"made the most of its revelations as a pre
dons document for the campaign. First display
ing the forgery in large type, with obtrusive
head-lines, he tacked to it this pleasant allusion
to the opposition candidate for the Presidency :
"This some James K, Polk, whose manacled bonds
men were seen by the Tourist, in 1836,0 n their way to
die In the sugar-mills of Louisiana, w 11117011 INITI ALB
OV nle NAND,

didate for the Presidency of the United States! Ac.
cording to all accounts, no treats the poor Africans
whom he owns no better now than he did than, for we
are told That he hires them oat by the week, mouth or
year, as we at the North hire one cattle to our neigh
bors, to labor for stipulated sums, which are paid to
him. If they are sent off from his plantation to differ
ent portions of Tennessee, it is not at all unlikely that
ihey curry the initials of their master's name, burnt
with the branding-iron into their shoulders, and are
all marked as shepherds mark their flocks. And these
poor branded slaves of James K. Polk's Ann ntrarAN
names."
This was a bomb-Shell in the Democratic camp.
The Polk men swore worse than the army in
Flanders. The New York Evening Post, of Sep
tember 23, denounced it as an "atrocious fraud"
—and so it was; and the Albany Argus took
much pains to find a copy of the genuine "Tour
Through the Western and Southern States" (Is
sued in 1834, not 1836), and, by publishing the
real and pretended passages in parallel columns,
fu.ly exposed the fraud. The Argos added: "Mr.
Featherstonbaugh makes no mention of Speaker
Polk, for the reason that when he wrote, Gov
ernor Polk wae. Dot Speaker." This was true.
John Bell 174 as Speaker of the House in 1884.
The New York American, one of the Whig
journals which had copied the story with great
gin to, made a retraction after this exposure, and
wonrd up its handsome apology with the em
?belie statement that the interpolation of the
passage in question was "a forgery which would
barely be adequately punished by branding liar
and forger on the forehead of the scoundrel who
perpetrated it." This was severe. But then the
dltor had been "sold." It naturally made him
mad.
Tiaralow Weed did not retract gracefully. He
never did. On the contrary, he was much of the
t. pinion of Byron :
"Atter aIL what ie a lit? 'Tie bat
The truth in natty Uel mite ;"
Ind so Ttnrlow threatened to sue the A rgto for
libel for haying said he was the author of the
tore( ry.
And Polk was elected, and the "Roorback
paseed into history. We have blown
away from it a few cl the cobwebs of time.
THE /1400 N HoAx.—This hoax, in point of
time, preceded the "Roorback" nine years; but
we Kite it the second place here, as its history is
mere generally known. Its author was Richard
Adams Locke, a resident of Brooklyn, long since
deed. but In his prime a bright and pushing man.
Gee day, his fancy rioting, he conceived the
notion of deceiving the public. and he did it very
tfeclually. In August, Isl."), there appeared in
ihe columns or the New York Hun a pretended
extract Item the pages of a "Supplement to the
EOinburgh Journal of Science," under the title of
' Great Astronomical Discoveries lately made by
Sir .John Herschel, lA.. D., F. R. S., etc., at the
Cape of Good Hope." This was the Moon Hoax.
Several numbers of the Hun were required to
complete the story. Men went wild in specula
te i,Ner the wonderful discoveries, and it is
commonly repotted that the same Pennsylvania
Dutchmen veto is still voting for Andrew Jack-
HOD C( 111111 U( s to clorifb his profound faith in
tee " req , eetilio horno, or Man-Bat."
'rite ail of pert( et honesty and profound Seim-
Dec rcrenrch abieb enveloped this extraordinary
hoax deceived the "very elect." It was an admi
rable literary performance, although It was
naughty to "take in" so many excellent
people.
Starting out with a grave Johnsonian intro•
duction by the ((liter of the Edinburgh Journal
of Science—who,in this usual addition to his Jou
rnal, had "the happiness of making known to
the British public, and thence to the whole eivi
liz‘d world, recent discoveries in Astronomy
which will build an imperishable monument to
the age in which we live, and confer upon the
present generation of the human race a proud
distinction through all future time,"—Locke pro
ceeded to describe "the stupendous fabric" of the
telescope with which Sir John Herschel had actu
ally and truly taken the Man in the Moon by the
110bC. 'lbis instrumen was as wonderful in its
way as the things it discovered. It cost $350,000;
its object•glass was twenty-four feet in diameter;
five furnaces were required to melt
the glass; and the weight of the huge
lens was nearly seven tons, and its esti
mated magnil3 log power, with the aid of the
hydro-oxygen microscope, was forty-two thou
sand times. It was, therefore, presumed to be
capable of representing objects in our lunar sa
tellite of a little more than eighteen inches in dia
meter.
Herschel sailed from London—so the story ran
—on the et th of September, 1834, taking with him
the huge tele scope, and accompanied by Dr. An
drew Grant, Lieutenant Drummond, of the Royal
Er glue , is. and a large party of tne hest English
nee char ics. Landing on the coast of Africa, the
compeer , ' made their way, by easy marches, to a
treble-land about thirty five miles northeaet of Cape
Town, where an observatory was solidly erected.
The to ketope was boon in place, and observa
tions begun; but until the 10th of slJanuary, 1836,
these observations "were chiefly directed to the
stars in the southern signs, in which, without
the aid of the hydro oxygen reflectors, a count
less numb( r of new Fiats and nebulte were die- -
covered." It was about halt-past nine o'clock on
the night of the 10th of January, the moon
having advanced within tour days of her mean
Id:elation, that the astronomer adjusted his in
strument for the inspection of her eastern limb.
The whole immense power of his telescope was
applitd, and to its focal image about one-half of
the power of his microscope. On removing the
screen of the latter, the /kid of view was covered
throughout its entire area with a beautifully dis
tinct and even vivid representation of basaltic
rock. This rock was a shelving pile, with arti
culations similar to those eof the basaltic forma
tion at 81.1 IN, and It was profusely covered with
u dark red flower, precisely similar to the Popover
Maw, or red poppy of our sublunary corn

And so, through column upon 'column of in
genions•writing,the author of "The Meon-Hoax"
led the public blindly. The publication created
as great an excitement abroad as at home; and
at benne the serious-minded Mercantile Adver
tiser of New York said : "It 'appears to
carry Intrinsic evidence of being . an au
thentic document;" while the Commercial Adver
tiser was morally certain that in it could•be traced
"marks of trans-Atlantic origin!"
Mean while, Locke chuckled, andthe Sun made
money by the fabulous sale of its sheets. A pam
phlet edition of the Hoax was subsequently pub
lished by the proprietors of the Sun, and of this
sixty thousand copies were sold—and so were
the buyers. Ten or twelve years ago, a single
copy of this pamphlet (then long out of print)
was disposed of at a library &action. sale Tor the
price of $8 75.
111. Ti n e " SLIEVEGAMMON" HOAX. The
troubled summer of 1818, when thrones wont
down and curses went up, and blood flowed like
water, and men strove breast to breast with-piti
less energy, gave rise to many false 'rumors of
successes and defeats. But none became so no
table as the New York Tribune's exclusive in
telligence at the bloody Irish battle of Slim
namon. On the morning of March 28, 1848. the
readers of the morning journals of Now York
wet o startled by the flourish of large type which
announced "The Abdication of Louis Philippe"
—"A Republic Prociaimed"—"Assault on the
Palace Royal"—"Great Loss of Life." It was a
time to stir the blood. Crowns cracked—in two
eevses—the People came uppermost, and then,
not knowing how to stay up, went down again.
The generalpurgation was salutary; but the
medicine was the bayonet, and the remedy was
cruel, and in the sequel, ineffective.' However,
the train bad been tottched,and the flame of re
volt leaped over the Channel and fell upon
the bundle of inflammable tow called Ireland. In
August, we had news that Ireland Was "up." As
in the days of the Rappareetl, Bo vividly de
scribed by Macaulay, bog and mountain alike
bristled with pike and gun. 'Some' bloody
fights occurred, but the disciplined valor of the
English bore down the ragged Celt till he cried
for help. Then the Irish element in America
rushed to the rescue; a "Directory of the 'Friends
of Ireland" was organized in New York, and
Horace Greeley accepted a leading position in
it. It was natural, therefore,' that his journal
should become the centre of intelligence for all
that related to the Irish struggle. One day in
August, the despatches received at the Tribune
office contained letters from Dublin. dated Au
gust 3, announcing the battle of Bilevenamon in
the following terms :
"No newspaper here (Dublin) dare tell the truth con
cert-log the battle of Slleveuttruon; but, from all we
can learn, the people have had a great victory. Gen.
Macdonald. the commander of the British forcer, is
killed, and six thousand troops are killed and wounded.
The road for three toile , is covered with the dead. We
also have the inspiring iniel'iiirence that Kilkenny and
Limerick have been laten by the people. The people
of Dublin have viii , re In Libre:Li...lands to assist in the
country. Mr. Joke uas wounded in both
legs. Mr Meagher was ILIEC , wchndezi in both arms.
It is generally expee:e'd that Dublin sill rise and at
tack the jails on Sunday 1.,g ht (August 6)."
There was not a word of truth in this. The
mountain of Slievenerann remained unstained by
gore; General Macdonald and his six thousand vet
erans still possessed unpnnctured skins; Thomas
Francis Meagher lived—to break his parole and
then challenge Henry J. Raymond to fight a duel
because be charged him with it; and Horace
Gret ley was innocent of the hoax because he was
at the time exploring the shores of Lake Superior.
But the deception did its work. Money came
rapidly into the treasury of the "Directory," and
nobody outside the organization knows to-day
through what bung hole it escaped.
As a matter of course, Bennett pooh-pooh'd the
story, and travestied the name of the hard-won
battle into Sliercgammon, by which title it has
since been generally known. Had the Herald re
ceived the news exclusively, instead of the Tri
bune, the complexion of the affair would have
been changed, and that sheet would have pre
served a decorous silence as soon as the hoax be
came apparent.
And this was the end of the battle of Slievena-
M mon.

GENTS : On the night of the 22d ult., our store,

attempi,inadchy burglars ution.orie of yOur safes
In our counting-room. • •
The key to the sate In which wo kept our se
verities waa locked inside of our flrc-proof book
safe, the doors of which were literally cut, to
pieces; from this they obtained the hey io the
other safe and opened it. Fortunately we had one
of your Burglar-Proof Bankers' Chests Inside; In
which our valuables were deposited. This they
went to work at with a will, and evidently used
up all their time and tools in vain attempts te.
force it. The night was dark and stormy, and
the fact of their knownlg whore our key was
kept shows that their plans were well ma
turcd. They tried wedging the door and body of
the Chest, and the faithful safe beat% evidence of
the labor and skill devoted to the work. All was
useless, and It is with great satisfaction we 'report
that upon opening it we found our securities ail
safe, and can therefore cheerfully Indorse the
Burglar-Proof work recommended by you,
Yon will please send the new safe purchased by
us to our counting-house, and take the old one
to show that some safes are still manufactured
worthy of the name. DAVID Dowa & CO.

Oxen ♦av Tunittinien—Jirdges 13reviseer and
Ludlow. The trial of Joseph EL Bower, charged
with manslaughtevin entistpg the death of Mrs.
Sophia Hecht, on November Sci, by a mistake in
compounding a prescription, was continued yes
terdey afternoon.
B. Mann' opened the case for the de
force, suggesting that in Christian communities
it was not usual to repair, one calamity in one
family by visiting one upon another family. The
question in this case .wee whether the defendant
was actuated by.lmalice, or whether he was the
victim of a mistake.
Mr. Bower, father of the defendant, testified
that his son was twenty-fonr years of age, and
was familiar with drugs from childhood, and had
eight years of active experience In the buelnefilit.
On the day of the occurrence witness was ont of
the city, and did not return until evening. Be
fore this the•defendant's character was that of a
careful and attentive business man.
Dr. Richard J. Levis testified that he had
known the defendant for fifteen years; he was in
his father's store. and had charge of an apothe
cary shop of a military hospital during the war,
and was attentive and careful; saw the defendant
the day after this occurrenee, and he then had
every appearance of groat mental agitation and
distress.
__
Mesers.Willett, Marks, Spangler, Fox, Dunlap,
Graham, Hague, Eldridge, Dr. Ltyezey and Dr.
Feist testified that the defendant was remarkable
for . ..care and attention to business.
Mr. Bower, recalled, and testified that atropia
and weak:Blida are distinctly marked in the store;
this is the first Mistake fdr thirty years he had
been in business.
Cress-examinele-The poisens are In one please
separated from otlitr drugs.
The defence here closed.
In the course of the argument, Mr. Mann, for
the defence designated the offence as a misad
venturetind a mistake; and said that the defend
ant felt as keenly the calamity as any one. If
misadventure'Was to be punt/stied - la's Court,
then the mother suddenly aroused in the night to
cam for a -sick child, and who, in her agitation
administers the wrong medicines,will be brought
into court for trial as though her sufferings were
tot enough. -
District Attorney Sheppard, In reply to this
particular part of the defence, said that this was
a Oise Where parties prefeesed te boekilled in the,
coinlionsiding of drugs; the defendatit was slips
tweed to 'be familiar with poisons, and in the
responsible position which he held he should not
have given an article, :glace, if competent, he
knew was a deadly poison. It was not the case
of an alarmed mother giving her child medicine,
of whOse properties she was ignorant, bat the
cage of a man supposed to be an adept in the
manufacture of drugs. The commonwealth,
however, abandoned the charge of manslaughter
andiudted fur a conviction for.involucitary man
slaughter.
Judge erewater delivered the following charge
to the jury:
Gent
. men of gee Jury: Wo are of opinion that
there is no question here of grades of crime, and
on thin account we shall not trouble you with
definitions of voluntary homicide or of any higher
offence.
The District-Attorney has, according to our
views of the case, very properly abandoned the
first count of the indictment, and the only ques
tion, therefore, is whether the defendant should
be convicted or acquitted of the remaining six
counts, which, in various forme, charge the
offence of involuntary manslaughter.
This crime is thus defined: "Thp doing of an
unlawful act, not,felonious nor tending to great
bodily harm, or doing a lawful act without
proper, cautious or requisite skill, whereby one
undesignedly kills another." (3 Greenl. on Evid.,
p. 128.) The mixing of medicines for tee relief
or cure of the sick is clearly a lawful act.. But
the law requires that no person should attempt
to deal out drugs as a matter of business or profit
without competent knowledge and skill.
So, too,he most not only possess knowledge and
skill, but he should ettiploy.those attributes to
the best of his ability,and failing herein,he should
be held to a strict responsibility. _clic should deal,
however, with human nature as we fi nd it, and
hold no man liable as a criminal, Unless he as
sume the duty of an eimployment, knowing that
he is incompetent to discharge its functions—or
ntleas,posseaaing the proper information, he fail
to cmploy it.
The test, therefore, in such cases, lies in the
word negligence.
If a man wholly ignorant of the science of
medicine and chemistry undertakes for profit to
compound a prescription, and poisons another,
Le might be convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
Eo too, if ever so experl,he should undertake the
same delicate employment, and mix the drugs in
the dark or while in a state of intoxication, and
thereby cause death, this might be evidence of
such gross negligence as would justify a jury in
finding a wanton and reckless disregard of 'life,
and here again the offence would be voluntary
suanalaughter.
On the other hand, if the person compounding
the prescription was a skillful druggist, and in a
proper condition, but, by omitting sonic minor
act of - eare, occasioned death, he would be guilty
of involuntary manslaughter.
And still again, if without any fault or want of
proper care, the wrong drug found its way into
the medicine compounded, and death resulted,
the act would be simple misadventure, and not
indictable.
It le the duty of the court in these cases, not
merely to stale general principles, but to en
deavor to assist the jury in the application of
the law to the facts, , Whieh is, , after all, the most
dilllcult part of your labors. The defendant's
counsel has admitted that the defendant made up
this prescription, and there is no dispute of the
fact that the taking of the pills caused the death
of Mrs. Hecht.
The sole question then le: Did the defendant
exercise reasonable care in the reading of the
word called by the Commonwealth A eta folidal
The case has very properly been so argued by
the counsel on both sides.
The Commonwealth contends that the word
was plainly written—that the nature of the drug
need wail a Warning to the defendant, and that a
case of degligence has been made( out against
him.
It is urged upon the other aide. that the word
is not legibly written, that it Might be mistaken
for A trophia; that the defendant has devoted
many,vertre to study of his profession, and
that he enjoys an excellent character for skill as
a druggist, and for peace as a citizen.
You will have the prescription with you. You
must examine it, and upon It and all the - evidence
in the case, ask yourselves this question: ,
Did the defendant employ . reasonable care in
the preparation of this medicine ?
This involves two points:
First—His reading of the word referred to.
Second—His knowledge of the deadly character
of the drug he used. •
For though he innocently mistook the language
of the prescription, yet if the exercisti of reason
able care would have warned him that he was pre
paring something which would inevitably kill, It
would be criminal In him to go on.
The Inquiry then Is: Did he put in the proper
drrigS; or make a mistake? for his default herein
would not necessarily be crime. But the higher
and truer test is the presence of reasonable care.
A professional man does not insure those who
deal with him against all contingencies.
He simply contracts to use his skill and Intelli
gence to the best of his ability, and with all due
fidelity. Measuring him and his act by this
standard, it is for you to determine the question
of his guilt or innocence.
If c,ou find an absence of this reasonable care,
you elist convict the defendant upon the last six
counts of the indictment.
If yon conclude that.he was reasonably care
ful, or have a fair doubt of his guilt, you should
acquit him.
The Jury retired at eight o'clock last evening,
and at half-past eight they returned with a
verdict of golf* , of Involuntary manslaughter,
with a recommendation to mercy.
Mr. Mann made a motion in arrest of judg
ment, alleging that the counts in the bill of
indictment charging manslaughter and
involuntary manslaughter were improperly
blended.
