Ajtliamond edition of Lowell, in which clear
miniature type is set with the eclat of jewelry
■pom delicate yellowish pages, manages to
corifiress in the thickness of an inch all that
James Russell Lowell has written and ac
knowledged, down to the Envoi that closed his
late vplume of “Under the Willows.” The
versatility of this rare poet shows strikingly
enough when his utterances are brought into
■ this cramped neighborhood, and his varied
poweiVare seen to explain the somewhat limited
• eharacjbr of his success. Sometimes an almost
t pare' satirist, sometimes an almost perfect
lyrist,i]Bt Is the irony of fate that this rare
creature is bound to go down to posterity as
the author of the Biglow Papers and of some
precioufFejaculations. There is a sermon in
i, the career of Lowell, and that is that the man
j£ u .born with the art-facnlty is bound to make
Jga the Choice of Hercules, or he is .derelict
in duty to his own heart and the world. The
poet Capable of the Ode to Happiness' and of
the Commemoration Ode might, if he bad been
faithful, acquired a sustained art which would
have!? tamped the age with some seal of power,
f' instead of leaving as an achievement only this
dewriMf* exquisite drops clustered around a'
funny” squib. How much Lowell
f and Hornes have lost by a determined adilic-
rather dried and creaking Boston
ioni&fiiie!
Sien Thackeray was writing his “Book of
s ” in a safe and saucy obscurity, he cared
littlejfor the intense publicity that should one
fdiiiiie upon him, giving distinctness to his
' desultory writings, and making them
ot “in that fierce light that beats upon
” of.'any kind. Certainly, his. up
heaval of the word snob from slang into dic-
tionary English was a revelation of strength ;
but just as certainly, his co'nfession of lying
about by ilay in the of country
houses, spying out the poor feminine make
shifts and pretences of the ladies who were en
tertaining him with their best, is just what
leaves the worst taste in the readers mouth of
anything in his writings, is the bitterest nut for
his admirers, and the most unsavory offence he
ccrrmirted. In the third volume of the
** Household Edition ” these “ Snobs ” are fol
lowed by “Mr. Brown’s Letteis,” “Dennis
Duval ” and the Notes which conjecturally
complete that truncated masterpiece, “ Men’s
Wives,” “The Bedford Row Conspiracy,” and
that Odyssey of mean intrigue, “The Fatal
Boots.” Two more volumes will finish the
miscellany series, and therefore the, entire
works of Thackeray in this edition. '
In a precisely similar edition of two volumes,
the works of the novelist’s gifted daughter are
completed. The second volume begins with
“The Story of Elizabeth,” published in the
Comhill, we believe diming the father’s super
intendency of that periodical. A fine insight,
cultured expression, and ladylike rapidity of
thought drew attention to this Charming story,
, and prepared expectation for its successors.
Five fairy-tales, prepared for and dedicated to
five young friends by Miss Thackeray,give a new
turn and a modern brilliancy to such loveable
old legends as Riding-Hood and Cinderella.
They follow “Elizabeth” in this collection.
"The Village on the Cliff,” and some of the.
Miscellanies which complement it in the first
volume, show the author’s intimate and genial
acquaintance with' continental life; anil every
sentence of. every work shows acuteness,
>,* brightness, observation, culture and feminine
/ _ , spell.
Of aseverer cast is “A Physician’s Problems.”
An English physician, Charles Elam, M. I).,
M. R. C. P., is the author of this work, which
possesses a strange fascination, since it sheds
the light of scientific research and cultivated
thought upon that border-land between physi
ology and psychology inhabited by the plieno
'fjniena of hypochondria, illusion and
Dr. Elam’s observations have been
clgse accurate; he constantly refers to his-,
torical facts with the familiarity of a man of
wide reading. The learned Doctor remarks'in
his,preface: “The following Essays are in
tended as a contribution to the Natural History
■'"of : those outlying regions of Thought and
Action, whose domain is the ‘ debatable
ground’ of Brain, Nerve and Hind. They are
.designed also to indicate the origin and mode
-of perpetuation of those varieties of organiza
tion,intelligence and general tendenciestowards
nsjcejj. or virtue, which seem, on a superficial
vif.W, to be so irregularly and capriciously
•dgvlloped and distributed in families, and
‘'; sais*pgst mankind. Subsidiarily, they point to
catpes for the infinitely varied forms of disor
nerve aiid brain,—organic and func-
deeper and more recondite than
tlifese’,generally believed incauses that are
elo'sSy, if not inextricably, connected with our
■!# nature on the one hand, and on the
.daw with our social and political regulations.”
w The .diopters form separate essays, having
theftfillowing captions“Natural Heritage,’
r t<> Regenerations in Han,” “On Moral and
% Epidemics,” “Illusions and Halluci

Mr. Dufßeld Aslimead issues a volume of
“Household Receipts" for family use. These
vecipes are 274 in number; there are a dozen
soups,,as maliy modes of cooking fish, a score
of side dishes, the usual style of washing, and a
considerable number of directions for pastry
and confectiouei-y. A few miscellaneous
recipes in domestic medicine and eoonomy
terminate the collection. This cheap little
manual, without containing anything very new
or original, will set the commissariat depart

The book —one of the Longmans’ publication

of the day to art literature, and should be re

—A French daily has a terrific picture of
Victor Hugo in the role of a vampyre. The
occasion is the signature of the contract be
tween M. Victor Hugo and M. Lacroix, for
the publication of “L’Homme Qui Rit.”
“Messrs. Hugo and Lacroix began by break
fasting together. At the dessert, M. Lacroix
drew out his contract and $20,000. M. Hugo
counted the money, read the contract, dipped
his pen in the. ink, and wrote the first letter of
his name. He suddenly stopped, and said:
‘Ah 1 I beg your pardon, my dear sir; I for
got to ask you—.’ M. Lacroix became very
pale. He had had hard work and several
days’ battle to get his partners to agree., to pay
$20,000 a volume for the forthcoming - work;.
what could M. Hugo ask now? M. Hugo
said: ‘Do not be alarmed; I refer to a mere
trifle. My two sons have each a volume ready
for the press ; you will take and publish them;
it is a bargain. They will only ask you $BOO
apiece, for them.’ What could M. Lacroix do ?
The knife was pointed at his heart. He said,
‘I take them.’ M. Victor Hugo took up the
pen again, but again hesitated, and said, point
ing to the bank notes on the table: ‘A thou
sand pardons. We have there only $20,000;
we ought to have $21,000;’ M. Lacroix was
obliged to go for the $1,600 before M. Hugo
would sign the contract.”
—M, Cham (his real name is de Noe; hence
his name, which is the French for Shem, as he
is Noah’s son) invariably carries twenty-four
sketches to the newspaper, for which he has to
provide twelve humorous wood-cuts, and the
editor selects the dozen of the twenty-four
which he thinks the best.
—54,000 are required for the. statue to de La
martine ; only $3,008 00 have been procured.
The monument will be by M. Adam Salomon.
He lias already completed the clay model. He
represents M. de Lamartine standing; he
bares his breast with his left aim, and with liis
right waves back the red flag; an ample cloak
falls from his shoulders. The base of the
statue will be adorned with allegorical statues
of Eloquence, Poetry, History, and Fraternity.
Some singular and amusing specimens of'
telegraphic incomprehensibility have been re
cently furnishing by the new Indo-Kussian line
which was opened a few weeks since. The
Bombay Gazette says: “It is but due to it that
we should acknowledge in our overland sum
mary the remarkable service it lias rendered to
India as a means of transmitting public news
and private advices,” anil thereupon gives
several specimens of Reuter’s despatches from
London, as they were received in Bombay.
Among these curiosities of telegraphy are the
following:

On Tuesday one of the divers employed at
the Landing Tier works, Douglass, while en
gaged in laying the concrete blocks under
water, met with a startling adventure. An im
mense fish, probably as much astonished as the
diver himself, presented itself witli extended
jaws in the attitude of attack, and but for the
presence of mind of the diver would probably
have seized one of the limbs of the submarine
woikman, and, with its formidable array of
toetli, have instantly cut, through the india
rubber dress. The diver, as when usually en
gaged below water, was armed with
the customary offensive weapons, one
of which he promptly thrust
into the reptile’s mouth, hut, retaining'his pre
sence of mind while, disabling it, firmly kept
his hold, and instantly signaling to. the man in
charge of the ptimp, was rapidly drawn to the
surface, bringing at the same time-the van
quished fish. On examination it proved to
be what is commonly called here a gilliperne,
or giiliperkin, but properly defined,according to
Hr. Brown, the engineer of the works, in the
“toad-fish” or “fishing-frog.” Its measure

Stale Suit Against the Credit jUobiller.
The case of tlie Commonwealth vs. the
Credit Flobilier of America was considered in
the Court of Common Pleas of Dauphin
county yesterday. It came up on an appeal
from the settlement of the Anditof-Generaland
State 'i'reasuer. L. W. Hall, representing In
connection with jj the Attorney-General the
•Commonwealth, offered tlie account of the
State against the defendant, claiming au
amount due the Stole of $520,540 S 7. Tlie
; original settlement showed a balance in favor
■of the State of $2,820,000, but by a re-settle
ment, made on July 14, last, the claim was re
duced, to the above amount. C. McMurtrie,
in tlie absence of E. M. Stanton, his colleague,
alone represented the defendant, and opened
with a history of the origin and purpose of the
Credit Slohilier.
The corporation originally existed as the
Pennsylvania Fiscal Association, but its name
was afterwards changed to its present style,and
it then became instrumental • in building the
Union Pacific Ifailroad, after tlie road had
passed the 100th meridian, where it obtained
the subsidy promised by Congress to the rail
way first reaching that point. A contract was
made by Oakes -Ames to'build 060 miles of
road, and by hint assigned to seven trustees,
who agreed to construct the road for the dis
tance, andon condition that |he Credit Mo
bilier would guarantee the performance of tlie
contract and advance the money there
for, the trustees promised to pay the
Credit Mobilier a commission of 21 per cent,
and interest on the money advanced for July,
3808. Tlie Attorney-General filed a quo war
ranto to inquire into the validity of the corpo
rate existence of the Credit Mobilier, and its
credit being thus impaired, it was unable to
supply tlie amount of money required to carry
on the contract, and it then released to the
trustees the part of the contract, on condition
that it should not be liable for any efaims for
damage. The real question involved is, what
were its real earnings as a corporation during'
tlie year 1808 ?
Witnesses for the defence have been called
to prove that during that time no profits were
earned and divided by this company. The
case will he continued to-day,
New Colonies In South America.
A Duenos Ayres paper reports the progress
of tlie new colonies in La Plata,' which occupy
settlements between Cordova and Santa Ft. A
company lias purchased a tract of land which is
sold to immigrants at low prices, and an agent
is now in Europe perfecting a system of colo
nization. He writes:
“When two or three or more distinct settle
ments will have formed on tlie land between
Koldan and Canada de Gomez, all the rest wig
prove, well'worth the twenty hard dollars. The
terms can he modified by paying only half the
passage,and allowing a shorter time for its repay
ment, and every one interested will derive the
most benefit possible from the arrangement ;
She .company from .the increased value of its
lands and the additional traffic on the line, and
the settlers through being able to keep the
j. small capital, add devote it to improving their
lands instead of spending it on passages, .This
plan insures the best class of settlers, for With
such liberal terms we have a right to expect
respectable families,
T “So it is, of importance to establish two col
onies as soon as possible. I have selected
'Switzerland as a starting point, and have come
here to begin, as I can succeed here more
quickly and easily; afterwards I will try the
i English, Norwegians and Germans.”
Volcanic Activity la Europe.
fFromtho London News of thsfttb.l
, The earthquakes in Germany and in the
neighborhood of the Sea of Azov indicate that
the subterranean forces of the European vol
canic districts-are - beginning to rouse them
selves after tho long rest which followed the
great combined outbreak of Vesuvius and ./Etna
nearly d year ago. That outbreak would
seem to have completely relieved the subterra
nean districts which communicate with the
Italian volcanoes; and the quiescence which
was observed throughout the whole of Southern
and Central Europe shows that (as had been
suspected) the districts which so communicate
are very extensive. Some time back, how
ever, those who* watch, , the indications
of the Italian volcanoes announced their belief
that the state of quiescence which Rad lasted
so many months was about to be disturbed.
The Naples correspondent of the Athermum,
writing on the 21st of September, saidj: “Our
mountain is big with menace to the crowded
population on Its sides, or of warning as to'
what may. be happening at a distance. Thus
shocks which were noted towards the end of
July were a species of electric telegrams, an
nouncing earthquakes in the Basilicas and
Calabria, happily'hornless, except that they
awakened considerable apprehension.” _ Pro
fessor Palmieri, whose special province it ap
pears to be to watch over the health of
Vesuvius, has noted that recently the
mountain has been far from show
ing that state of quiescence which
indicates tliat it has exhausted ■ its eruptive
energies. “Vesuvius preserves a residium of
activity,” he writes, “as is shown not only by
the smoke which at times is copious, but by
the abundant sublimates which are observable
on tlie north side of the little cone, whence the
last conflagration took place, and also by the.
fire which, especially at night, is seen within
tlie fissures of tlie old lava.” These sighs may
appear insignificant to many, but in reality
tliey are not so. Just as the seemingly insig
nificant motion of tlie mercury in the barom
eter is full of meaning to the seamen, so the
smoke and flame from Vesuvius warns the in
habitants of all Southern Europe to be pre
pared for a renewal of the earth’s subterra
nean activity.
