HEW PUBLICATIONS.
■Parliamentary Law is admirably expounded
by the present Secretary of the Senate of In
diana, Mr. O. M. Wilson, Esq., in his Digest,
the second edition of which was lately issued
by Kay & Brothers, of this city. .In a compass
not too extensive, Mr. Wilson prints the text of
the United States Constitution, and a his
tory of its adoption, amendments, &e.; the
Digest proper occupies tlrreo hundred pagos,
and cites an infinity of those precedents in the
government of the English Parliament on
y*Wch our Lex Partiamentaria principally de
pends. The English authorities which lay
■ down the law for the House of Commons are
individually voluminous.tliough few; not many
have ever attempted to classify the enormous
and confused mass of ‘ inconsistent examples
from which that law must be distilled/ The
skilful baud that saves the American Senator,
or legislator from the turning over of these
'weighty yet unprofitable authorities is certainly
a friendly one. And the universal intelligent
attention with which, in this country, the in
habitants watch the proceedings of their legis
latures or congresses, and the care with which
they need, to carry down parliamentary rules
into their local organizations and debates, wall
make this digest a handy reference for every
public-spirited person. We are not surprised
■that editions are multiplying. To many in
this city the fact that Mr. Frederick C. Brightly
gives the digest his unreserved commendation,
will he a sufficient-'testimony to its legal merit
and reliability. .
“ American Commercial Law, relating to
every kind of business; with full instructions
and practical fonns, adapted to' all the States
of the Union.” Mr. Franklin Chamberlin, of
the United States Bar, in an octavo of nearly a
thousand pages, comes up handsomely to the
assistance of the business man, citizen and
legislator with a clear explanation of the course
of American law in every department of trade,
together with appropriate formulas of all kinds.
His book is wiitteu on the. unassailable theory
that in a country like ours, where every man is
or may soon be a public man, an acquaintance
with commercial law ht least, if not with crim
inal law, is a necessary preparation for good
citizenship and wise legislation. The book
under review treats of such matters as the
powers and limits of Agents; what is neces
sary to make Agreements binding, with a
dozen forms; Sales; Liens and other claims
upon estate; liow to confirm gifts; of nego
tiable and non-negotiable mercantile Paper; of
Partnership; of Corporations, with many useful
forms; Insurance of every kind, very fully
treated;.of Arbitration; of Bankruptcy; of
the various valid Titles; of the lien of mort
gages ; of the relations of Landlord and Tenant,
and those of Husband and Wife ; of Parents,
Huardiaris, Apprentices; of Wills; of the pub
lic rights on the highway; and a full explana
tion of the general subject of patent and copy
rights and the privilege of Trade-marks. The
'book seems to he expressed throughout with
fulness and clearness for the ordinary non
jprpfessioua] reader, who will doubtless find
that the possession of it will save tlie cost
many times over in legal advice. This conve
nient compendium is published by O: D. Case
& Co., Hartford. Philadelphia .agents, Par
melee & Co.
Of showy hooks suitable foi holiday presents
and not too dear, we would instance “Bible'
Lyrics,” by Rev. John A. Murray, an attempt,
often very successful, to Versify Bible passages,
or transfer their native lyric quality into
modern metres. The illustrations are worthy
of attention, as developing the process of copy
/ ing, by the Osborne photo-lithographic method,
the great plates of Dores Bible into pictures a
little smaller but otherwise identical. By.this
process every line is preserved, though every
one is roughened, with some loss of tone and
beauty ; still, the copies retain Dores. energy
and opulence almost unimpaired, and carry this
work up to an eminence hardly reached by any
of the strictly original illustrated books of the
season. Parmelee & Co. sell it, the publisher
being C. F. Vent, of Cincinnati.
The “Bible Looking-Glass” is a book of
quaint religious emblems, often enforced with
strange old Wood-cuts or cheaply daubed de
signs of an allegorical character; much of the
letter-press is anecdotal, and quite contradicts
our familial' idCa that, a parable must' neces
sarily be in antique garb. The author or editor
and illustrator, is Mr. John Warner Barber, an
engraver of New Haven, who is a character in
his way: he says he has been assured that his
figurative print, “A Miniature of the World in
the Nineteenth Century,” has been tlie human
means ofturning “several” to the path of salva
tion; his “Voyage of Human Life,” not quite so
artistic as that by Thomas Cole, but doubtless
yaite as inventive, appeals to us equally adapted
to lead sinners of a certain class up to the mys
tic Triangle which blazes in the sky over the
bald crown of the pilgrim. The book is made
up of several parts, and is one of such miscel
laneous contents that we think something new
might he lighted upon in it, on , any wet Sun
day, by the most determined reader, alter no
matter lioW many years’ possession of the
treasure. Published by Howe's Subscription
Book concern, Cincinnati, and sold by Parmelee
&Co.
“ Women of the Bible” is the title of an
elegant solid octavo volume, in which the
careers of twenty-seven ot the principal
heroines of Jewish and Christian history aro
described in reflective and elevated prose, the
letter-press giving place here and there to
finisheeb wood-cut illustrations. The binding
is in handsome bevelled style, wj|h gilt edges.
This is one of the most creditable publications
of the American Tract Society, ahtT may be
found among tlie rich literary stores displayed
at their Philadelphia Branch, No. 140 S Chestnut
street, Philadelphia.
BCENFA IN CEYLON
| From the Overland Monthly.)
- On-every side nature seemetl teeming-with
life and motion, as we journeyed onward, past
»' clusters of the ylorioSit xuptrba, orchids, aiid
climbing plants,’whicli liung in festoons from
the undergrowth. Insects of the most brilliant
lustre bung on‘the leaves, or hovered about
the trees, while birds of a varied and beautiful
plumage flitted 1 across our path. We stopped
at different villages, where refreshments were
obtained in the shape of coffee and rice-cakes,
and the delicious king cocoanut, the water of
which, medicated with a dash of cognac, I
thought quite equal to champagne. Asi wo
proceeded, 'a lazy rattlesnake might be observed
dragging his weary length across the l'oau, or
climbing the side of some native hut, under no
apprehension of violence, as the natives are for
bidden by their religion to take life in any
shape.' This code is not,ihowever, always ad
hered to, since they are readily roused to
anger, and revenge themselves in a cruel mau
»er on anything that has injured them. Thus,
on one occasion, while I was riding in the jum
cle nuar Ranee, oil the south coast, r observed
a wounded alligator bound by.ropes to a tree.
It appears he had committed sundry, depreda
tions on cattle; and although pierced by half a ‘
dozen bullets while in the water, he exhibited
sufficient vitality to make extraordinary efforts
to escape, after being dragged qshore. A batch
of natives were amusing theniSelves by inflict
ing-prodigious whacks, ou, his carcass with
huge billets with appawntlybut little
effect. One aggrieved partywas iu the- act of
making a furious onslaught, when the mon
ster, by a sudden flank movement, caught him
right amidships, and sent him howling a dis
tance of several yards. It was-manifest that
tlie destroyer of cattle was not to be done to
death by any amount of hammering; so lie,
was left attached to the tree, and for a month
afterward his mortal remains diffused an odor
over the neighboring district that did not savor
of “ gales from Araby the Blest.”
At Bentotte, the half-way house, the midday
meal is taken, and a certain degree of rest af
forded, which by this time. has become neees-;
sary. In tlie cool and comfortable rest-house
we found no difficulty in satisfying tlie craviugs
of hunger, and the more importunate demands
of thirst. Tlie river is here crossed by a bridge
of boats, which is occasionally swept away or
injured by .-heavy , freshets, which bringdown
heavy pieces of timber, and sometimes small
islands, against the bridge. Ten miles further
on we arrived at • Caltura, where are the re
mains of an old Dutch fort, and in the vicinity
of which are the caves where a species of swal
low constructs the famous edible bird’s nests,
so much valued as a table luxury by the Chi
nese. The village is distinguished for its ex
tensive arrack distilleries. In tlie vast topes of
cocoanut palms from whence these dis
tilleries are supplied may he seen the opera
tions of the toddy-drawer, as he rapidly as
cends, descends, or runs along tlie numerous
lines that connect one tree with another.
Within eight miles, of Colombo, the road runs
through the cinuamon gardens. The aroma so
much lauded by voyagers as emanating from,
this famous laurel is, when close to it, anything
but agreeable to the olfactory nerves; and the
vaunted plant itself is by no means an im
posing shrub. Its cultivation has deteriorated
considerably of late years, owing to the mo
nopoly at one time exercised by tlie govern
ment, and subsequently, to tlie heavy impost
levied oii the trade. Driving across the Gal
leface, and entering the fort by the south gate,
we arrived about four o’clPck in Colombo, the
seat of. government. The English society here
is net such that a stranger will appreciate, un
less he possesses introductions of a certain
character; but lie can find ample and inter
esting employment for his in rides and
drives about Colombo and its neighborhood.
Shortly after my arrival I accompanied 4
friend on a visit to his estate, a few miles be
yond Negombo. The heat was intense, and
the lowering of the dark, leaden' clouds por
tended the setting in of the monsoon. After a
pleasant ride of several miles, we reached his'
bungalow, which stood on an eminence, just
as a few heavy drops of rain gave notice of the
impending storm’. An ayah, or native nurse,
was carrying his child in the veranda as we
entered; hut we had scarcely been seated be
fpre a flash of lightning, followed by a terrific
crash, of thunder, struct* the house. We heard
a scream, and the father rushed into the ver
anda. There was the ayah lying stone-dead,
and tire infant on the ground a short, distance
from her. We picked the little one up, and
found it uninjured. These tropical storms, al
though .very violent while they last, are of short
continuance, and the effect they have in clear
ing the atmosphere is delightful. Vegeta
tion revues, and animal iife, which for
a time had been dormant, breaks into
renewed activity. Tire land-leeches
become especially troublesome after a
shower of rain, when these pests of the jungle
attack the traveler in myriads. Though ho is
mounted on horseback, they will quickly ascend
the legs of the horse while in motion and fasten
on to the rider before be becomes aware of
their existence; and it is’not desirable to re
move them until they have drunk their fill of
blood, for fear of causing an after-sore, Silk
leggings are the best protection, and are gen
erally adopted in those districts where these
voracious creatures abound. Though venom
ous reptiles are so numerous in every part of
the island, the casualties caused by them are
by no means common as might be supposed.
The most detestable of these, to my mind,were
the (lying frogs, so called from tlieir capability
oi .springing from one tree to another. They
are gree'ii, arid very poisonous, principally in
festing remote clumps of cocaanut trees. They
give vent to a most disagreeable squeak as they
leap front branch to branch, and this inhar
monious sound jars on the nervous system of
those acquainted with-the habits of the reptiles.
The highway to the coffee-districts is the
Kandy road, which at all times,-but chiefly in
the coflee season, is a scene of bustle and ac
tivity. Bay and night the bundys , drawn, by
the small hump-backed oxen' of the country,,
traverse this r oad, and the bells on each cause
an everlasting jingle, broken only by the song
of the driver, who, walking between the con
veyance and his bullocks, stirs them up with a.
pointed stick, or twitches tlieir tails to increase
their speed. Droves of larger oxen, laden
with coffee from the mountains, passed us, and
occasionally a colossal elephant-wagon, drawn
by one or two elephants belonging to the en
gineer’s department. This road, cut, as it
must have been, at an enormous expense,opens
up the ,Kandyau country through the Kaduga
nava Pass, and presents a magnificent speci
men of engineering skill. . Its completion
made a hitherto inaccessible country practica
ble for British troops; and since that time no
difficulty with the-warlike mountaineers has
occurred. The scenery as we ascended
the mountain pass, and tliehce to Kandy,
is one of surpassing magnificence. The ancient
capital of the kings of Kandy has little to re
commend it, except its prestige and ruins. Its
greatest curiosity is the Dalada, said to be the
sacied tooth of Buddha, for the possession of
which have been waged innumerable wars,and
to which unnumbered pilgrims have flocked in
all ages to express tlieir veneration. It is said
by unbelievers to be only the tooth of a pig,
after all; hut this m yassant. The Botanical
Gardens at Peredinaia are well worth seeing,
as they are stocked with the finest exotic aiid
indigenous plants and trees to be found in any
collection in the East. Prom Kandy to Neuera
Elba, tbe sanitarium of Ceylon, the road is car
ried to a height of 0,000 feet above the sea.
The town is built on tbe mountain plateau,and
the loftiest ranges in the vicinity give growth to
the superb rhododendron, which rises to the
height of filly or sixty feet, and is covered with
a profusion of blight crimson flowers.
On these invigorating heights the invalid
coming from the plains below, can„if n,ot too
far gone, recruit bis. health and.strength,.and
enjoy himself with as much .zest- as if he were
in a temperate, instead of a tropical region. I
shall never forget tbe pleasurable sensation {
experienced in finding myself again in a climate
where blankets were a necessity; to wake up in
the morning and-discover the hoar-frost on the
ground, and thin ice on the water; but, espe
cially, once ‘more* to see European fruits and
flowers around me. This sort of thing could
only lie fully appreciated by one who,.like my
self, bad been broiling for years on the arid
plains of the Deccan. It was a change'from
tbe bowling wilderness to an elysium, and I
■was more ilian ever inclined to think, with the
Mussulman, that. Ceylon must verily have been
the original Garden of Eden. Such a pleasant
dream .could not last long. Duty demanded
my presence in the dank and unhealthy jungles
of the low country ;, and.Neuera Ellia hence
forth to me would be inaccessible except as a
.resort for sickness, on- medical certificate, and
with the august permission of leave of absence
from headquarters.

Promised Reforms lm France—Speed, of
ttae Emperor.
Faihs, Nov. 29.— The sessions of the Senate
and Corps Legislate were reopened to-day
with greafeeremoriy by the Emperor, who de
livered a speech from the throne. It was hoped
the Empress might return in time to take part
in the ceremonies, but she has not reached
Paris. .The Emperor said :
✓lt is not easy to establish regular and peace
ful liberty in France. For months past society
seemed menaced by subversive passions, and
freedom compromised by excesses of the press
and public assemblages, hut common sense has
"already properly jiulged these culpable exo
nerations, which, after all, have served but to
prove the solidity of the edifice fouuded by
popular suffrage. But the uncertainty and
trouble must last no longer ; the will of the
people most he known. France wants liberty
wiUi. olden and order I answer for: help me
messieurs to secure liberty. Between those
who would change all and those who would
grant nothing, a glorious course may be chosen.
The Emperortheii referred to the Scnatm
Coimtltmn of September hist, which he said
he had proposed with the purpose of inaugu
rating a new era of conciliation and progress.
He proceeded to enumerate the municipal
reforms to be made. He pronounced the
situation of the country satisfactory, and de
clared that the' more he was ready, however, to
"rant reforms, . the more decided he was to
maintain the principles of the Constitution.
The l elations of France with foreign powers
were friendly. The Jfimperor continued: .
AVe have reason to be proud of our epoch.
Tlie New "World suppresses slavery, Russia
frees her serfs, England renders justice to Ire
land. Bishops are meeting at Rome for wise
and conciliatory purposes, and the; progress of
science draws nations nearer to each other,
while America unites the Atlantic
and I’acifie; everywhere, capital and
intelligence combine to / connect by
electrio \\ ires ’all .nations. France and Italy
will soon be joined by tunnel through the
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPfIIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30,1869, i -
Alps, and the Suer. Canal has already united
tile Mediterranean and the Red Sea. The
Empress is not present to-day, because I de
sired her to testify the sympathy of France
with the wonderful genius and perseverance of
a Frenchman. ,
The Emperor concludes:
Messieurs, you resume your labors after an
unusual interruption of the session. I hope
the bodies of the State will apply loyalty to the
modifications lately made hi the.
There is to be a.' more direct’ participation of
the nation in its own affairs. This will be a
new force for the Empire. France can sup
port free institutions, which honor civilized
nations.
Palis, Nov. 29.2-The following is a synopsis
of the reforms promised In the Emperor's
speech: ■ ■
Mayors arc to be chosen from municipali-.
ties; municipalities will he elected by universal
suffrage* communal councils will be. estab
lished ; fresli prerogatives will bo granted to
the Conscil.i Oeneraux. The colonies are to
participate in this movement. Universal suf
frage will be ; extended, and there will be a
more rapid development of primary education;
a diminution of the costs of justice and a re
duction of the. war tax on successions. The
savings bank system is to be extended; more
humane regulations are to be made for the
labor of children, and there is to be an increase
to small salaries in public offices. Useful
measures connected with agriculture are pro
mised ; also an inquiry into the excise and pro
ject of law regarding customs duties. _
The speech says the situation is satisfactory,
tliat the foreign relations are the subject of
congratulation,'that its finances are prosperous,
and tiiat the Chambers must prove that France
is capable of free institutions, which are the
honor of civilized countries.
Pauls, Nov. 29, evening.—Laige crowds
were collected around’ the hall of the Corps
Legislatif to-day, but no disturbance occurred.
Within the Chamber the scene was of great
interest. Henri Rochefort was not present,
and his name, when called, was received with
hisses.
The Emperor’s address was listened to with
the deepest attention, and was frequently ap
plauded. At that point Where the Emperor
declared he would answer for the, preservation
of order, the applause became enthusiasts
The official journals this evening praise the
speech, while the opposition press complain
that the Emperor does not promise reforms
which France needs. #
