of the most attractive announcements
we have bad for many seasons,
and certainly'
the best yet :made by the firm from whom it
issues, is the list of spring publications by the
Boston house of Fields, Osgood 4.% Co. The
gteatest popular "catch" in the series will be,
We think, " The Luck of Roaring Camp, and
tatter Sketches," by F. Bret Bade, editor of
the Oreiland onthly, in the columns of which
magazine the stories have generally appeared,
and, have instantly spread over the continent.
Eimetson furnishes prose for, a new volume,—
his .first in that kind for ten years, it 'is said;—
to be Called "Society and Solitude." Lowell's
forthcoming work is entitled "Among my
Beeks," anil is made of his finest critical ,
essays. Miss Phelps (of "Gates Ajar")
has, stud) , on the • social evil,
said . to •be treated with rare intel
ligence
,and delicacy, entitled "Hedged. In."
It will appear next month. Bryant's," Homer"
is , done,' and will appear. Thackeray's " Mis-•
tellanies " will be completed by a fifth volume,
the one for whose appearance we have been
so eagerly waiting, to contain matter only col
lated by the Boston editor, and omitted from
the best English editions.. Ref-. William
Mountford (author of " Thorpe ") .presents
study of " Spiritualism," entitled "Miracles,
past and present." Adirondack Murray will col
lect his sermons, so attractive just. now at
Boston Music all; and James K. Medberry,
after much care and preparation, will come out
with a work on the "Men and Mysteries of
Wall street." These nine
,contemporaneous
'
books considering the intellectual: level at
which: they rule,. - would - be a matter - of pride to
any publisher in Christendom.
THE LATE GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
[ From the Nation.]
Like a good many of the men who were
serviceable, and who have become more or
less famous, by working in literature for the
Southern side of the slavery question, Mr.
Prentice was a New Englander by. birth; but
going into Kentucky, as a young man not far
past his majority, he,soon became ahnost com
pletely imbued with the Southern spirit.' Up
to the day of the breaking out of the rebellion,
lie - might very well have been taken as a type
of the regular semi-educated politico-literary
Southerner who bad no claims to, be consid
ered aristocratic in blood. Re knew the Re
solutions of '9B and English literature hetWeen
Addison and Thomas _Moore; he was always
ready to take his chance under "the code" of
bis adopted State; he became a free liver after
the extremely unpuritanicat fashion of
Kentucky; he could talk • of chivalry
as one to the Manner born; and
slavery had.' .in him as willing a
defender .as if his father had been a planter,
and be had not first seen the light on a Yankee
sidehill." Many are the stories told of the
duels and rough-and-ready fights in which he
was engaged, as were most of the editors of
that day and country; of the newspaper wars,
peculiarly Southern in character, which pre
ccded them ; and of the orgies which accom
panied them, and which were, indeed, part of
the warp and woof of the life 'Of the Southern
and Berder States a few decades ago. It is a
characteristic, anecdote that they tell of him and
litir". Reuben Barrett, once editor of the Louis
ville which was the local rival of
Prentice's Journal. For several consecutive
days in IFSS, the Courier printed a paragraph
—doubtless true enough—stating that Mr.
• Prentice, while "under a 'cloud," had fallen
from the gangwayplank of a steamboat,and been
- nearly drowned. "Probably," says our
authority, "he felt that even his great
command of language would not permit him to
do justice to the subject so he announced
that, in case the CV/frier should print the state
ment onelnne rnore,lie shetild
responsible. "Of course, Mr. Barrett gave his
personal attention to the matter, and next
morning the paragraph appeared in a con
spicuous place. " Mr. Prentice," says our
chronicler, "waited upon Mr. arrett, and
tired twice at him." His " brother of the quill,"
as the phraSe used to go;•was not behindhand
in the use of firearms, and witeli satisfaction,
had been given, ," each editor had a bill ex
tracted from big hide." But, thoroughly as he
seemed to have adopted Southern manners and
opinions, there appears to have been something
of,Netiv England left in him ; for when the war
broke out he took strong ground in favor of
coercion. He hated au abolitionist; but:
his Whiggism, hiS dislike of Democratic seces
sionists, the sort of fetish worship of the
Constitution, and ardent love of the Union
the pride in America as the home of the eagle
---which was so powerful a sentiment in the
breasts of many men of the generation
to which he belonged, kept Mr.
Prentice, pro-slavery as he was, from going
into the rebellion. ' Ile was a fearless Unionist,
and for a while in the beginning of the war he
was 'Very popular in the North, and got many
subscribers in this part of the country, who
took the place of the many he lost in the
South. But soon the war became what he
called "a nigger war ;" his sons 'went into the
COnfederate army ;he was grown old and was
sick, and his zeal for the
.Union as it was to be
was a very , different thing from his zeal for the
_ 1111 1 1 1111111 l w0e.... .tsoll,lle.did good" service of_
its kind, and this should not be forgotten, al
though we find it impossible to think of
him as a man of enlarged views,
and although, we know lie was so far from be
ing alive to the real issues before hint that he
never in the least comprehended them. He
spent his best strength in the politics of Henry
Clay's 'time, and Was at one with Mr. Greeley
in thinking that politician a man of vast ability
and eminently worthy the name of a states
man. After the war was over, Mr. Prentice,of
course, took sides with Mr. Johnson,and "even
Ais great conmetial of language " hardly
Balked to enable him to give expression to all
the scurrility and bad temper and bad logic and
. forcible-feeble invective which he heaped On
bis antagonists. Ilut, as we have said, he had
grown old his life had been in marry wayi> ex

SAVICTE•BETVE 7 MI DE. PRINCESS MA-
It seems Sainte-Benve is not to be allowed
to rest'quietly in his grave; ' The justice'of the
peace 'who bad, placed under seal all the
property to; .be found in Sainte-BenVe's house;
appointed a day for their removal. The
executors were present, and they had. Scarcely
been joined by the justice of the peace when
three persons, to all the other parties unknown,
entered the house. Instantly one 'of theM
said : "Princess Matbilde • has - given' me a
power of attorney to act tor her. In her name,
I claim.a packet of letters .written by Her Im 7
pellet Highness to the late M. Sainte-Benve;
and I insist in her name that those letters shall
be delivered to , ' me." The person who
accompanied him added : " I am the Commis : -
stoner of Police 1. - support - 'her' Imperial
Highness's claim. I think the letters should.
he surrendered to her; in default thereof I'M
terdict.the removal of the seals." . This preten
sion took the executors .by surprise. They
conferred together, and presently said: "As
this claim has been matle•with all the forms of
the law, the cotirts of justice must decide the
question; meantime the lettefa under 'contro
versy slittll remain under seal." Thereupon
the other person who accompanied the Com
missioner of Police said : " I have been clothed
with the proper authority to represent the
family of the late M. Sainte-Beuve. I restrain,
in their name, the justice of 'the peace from re
moving the seals, and from allowing the
.be execu ted.-: We are ...rea.dy. to.
prove that there was undue influence
used to wring the alleged will from the de
ceased, and, moreover, that the will is a forged
document. The alleged will shows on its face
it vas made only eight days before the , testa
tors death, and we are prepared to prove that
for more.than eight days before his death M.
Sainte-Beuve could not hold a pen in his
band." The seals, of course, were , not re-•
moved, and appeal was made to the cowls of
justice to decide between all these claims. It
appears this " family of the deceased," whose
names Sainte-Betwe's notary never in his life
'heard before, are some very distant kinsmen,
with whom Sainte-Beuve had no man
lier of relations. The head of this
family is a provincial attorney
whose cupidity has been roused by hearing
thew are 1420,000. to be divided between the
legatees of the will. Sainte -Bettye quarrelled
with Princess Mathilde some months before
his -death, when it became notorious that he
'had refused to quit le'lloniteur' to go on the
new Journal Ofireiel (I gave you at the time
a full report of all the circumstances) ; his
friends at' court urged .him to join the new
paper. He refused. - When+ a fete days after
wards he'quitted Le .11Igniteur to write on an
opposition paper, Le Temps, the anger of his
friends'at court was extreme. None of them
were so angry as Princess Mathilde. , The
moment she heard. it she drove to
Sainet-Beuve's house. He, was absent, and
his secretary received her. She expres'aed
her indignation at his "treachery;" she had al
ways been warned lie would prove a " traitor ;"
he was the ' 6 Marmont of literary met)," and
she ended by asking liovi• he, a ."mere vauBal
of the 'Emperor," had dared join the Opposi
tion • without "his master's " consent. The
secretary reported the conversation to Sainte
13euve, who wrote a most indignant letter to
Princess Mathilde, and never again, had any
thing more to do with her. She repeatedly
trieto'renew her old relations with him ; he
positively refused to hear of it. M. Ciraut (an
ex-Minister of Public Instruction) was the
mediator she selected. Sainte-Beuve replied to
his overtures : "The wound shelotheted on
me was too cruel ; it will bleed even after I am
dead."-- 2 :Ciir. - Chadh's - Pub. Montan
ELECTRICAL PINENO3IENON.
A Curious Demonstration
A letter in the Ottawa (III.) Peptiblictue gives
the following account of an electrical phe
nomenon :
• "In the engine-room of the Peru Plough
Factory there is a leather belt from eight to
ten inches wide. .•This belt is drawn over two
druniS; one of which is iron, and the other, I
think, is wood. These drums make about
fifty revolutions per minute. Standing, in
front of and below" the belt, and placing
the extended fingers within six inches
of it, the experimenter will observe a multi
tude of white rays, which start from the belt,
and project themselves in the direction of the
lingers, For the first three inches the rays
form a sheet of white light, its base extending
across the band. It then breaks up into pen
cils of rays, each pencil• converging to a deli
cately fine point. The points of the Whiterays
approximate at the tips of the fingers, but
never touch them. On the contrary, the ends
of the fingers are illuminated with little jets of
bright yellow flame, which dart out to meet
the white rays. The little flames are lam
bent, continuous and pencil-shaped. They are
not as vivid as a true electric spark, but suffi
ciently bright to be visible by daylight. If a
person, holding his right hand near the belt,
touch any one in'reach with his left hand, he
will experience a sensible shock. The fingers,
after experimenting with the belt, have a
pricking sensation, not unlike the feeling pro
duced.by restored circulation after the hand
has been fi asleep,' -or when, we-, carelessly
Meddle with the polo4"itit'ititiiitgiiale battery."
PARISIAN DI ARV ELti.
Extraordinary Cab-drivers and
A curious illustration of the honesty of
Parisian cab-drivers and policemen is given in
the last fortnightly' lists of objects found in
public vehicles or thoroughfares and deposited
by the finders at the Prefecture of. Police.
Between the 26th of December and the 12th of
.lanuary, 18 watches, 22 pocket-books (contain
ing altogether 37,47910, 3 rings, , 1 gold
snull-lax, 4 — bracelets, .3 lockets, , 7 brooches
and' 1 pair of gold spectacles were re
turned. —All th'ese Objects were picked up in
the streets or in the pidle, gardens. In cabs,
oniniliuseri and theatres there were found 27
purses and pocketbooks (containing 03,69810,
watches,23 opera-glosses, I , pearl necklace, 3
gold necklaces and lockets, 2 brauelets, 44 um
brellas, shawls or. cloalcs,,and 9 g,en
thimen's overcoats. The Most surprising fear
tore of the listis the number of twenty -franc
and ten-franc pieces picked tip and taken to
the pollee otlice.

Interesting Information.
From the Mauch Chunk Gazette of yester
4:lay we dip the following:
There was transported last . week over both
railroads 73,679 14 tons against 62,593 13 tons
" the corresponding week last year—an increase
of 11,u53 tons. Of this 5,939 14, tons were
delivered to the Lackawanna and Bloomsburg
Railroad and forwarded north, and 67,740 tons
were delivered at tide-water and along the
line.. Our reports to last Saturday show a de
-cline of 2,451.19 tons from the . sillpinents of
The - preilouSWeek.

THE MARKET.
p
f
Te Scranton auction sale of last Wednes
day week showed an average decline, from
the sale of December, of thirty-nine cents. As
we intimated last week the market was full
and the additional 73,000 tons thrown upon it
by the sale greatly. depressed the trade. On
Tuesday of this week, hoWever, the railroad:3
consented to a further reduction of thirty-four
cents on through coal, which. brings tolls down
to the following figures:
llauch Chunk to Phillipsburg - - - '-g gi
Phillipsburg to Elizabetliport - - - - 1 22
do. do. fort Johnson - - - - 1 29
do. do. Hoboken 1 29
From Penn Haven, 14 cents additional
No other change was made except on con
signments to Newark, which will be rated as
tide, or $ 1 4.6 from Phillipsburg. This prompt
action checked the demoralizing influences of
the Scranton sale, and the market is now con
siderably easier. The cool weather also has
a beneficial effect and a brisker inquiry is
noticed.

OPERAToiN.
It would not be surprising if the lead taken
by the. Pennsylvania Coal and Wilkesbarre
Coal and Iron Companies in the retail move
ment is followed by other large operators.
And we are not sure that such n feature would
not be a stroke of policy on the part- of pro
ducers, provided it could be inaugurated,
without detriment.to their large wholesale in
terests. It would necessarily interfere with
their trade with retailers, hut any inconveni
ence that would accrue from this. ,might
counterbalanced by the profits to be
had from direct sales to consumers. The at
tention of the operators is evidently being at-
tracted in this direction, and if there is any
thing in the idea, we may locik for , .quite a
revolution in the retail trade: Business is
rapidly.settling, the avenues of trade are nar
rowing down,and closer calculation and greater
prudenceln trade of 'all kinds, is beciorning' a
necessity. It is not improbable, then, that
coal men will seize upon every opportunity
that presents itself to keep things moving. At
all events the interests of consumers will be
benefited by the course ,at which we have
hinted.
Ltrnrarr .AND , WYOMING REGIONK.
From present indications we should not be
surprised If a suspension would take place be
fore long. There is so much coal stocked at
the shipping points (and the present large pro-
Auction adds to it every week), that operators
'will not, we presume, continue to run much
longer unless a better demand is had.
SCHUYLKILL COUNTY,
Trade is stagnated. So little coal is going
forward, that it is impossible to give quota
tions. Up to this time the suspension generally
, continues, but this is partially attributable to
the low prices that have ruled since the Scran
ton sale, It is not unlikely that individual
operators, acting on the advice of the Coal
Board and making the best arrangements
they can, will resume work as opportunity

A Week of Fighting in the Asslts Kills.
BAVANA, Jan. 29.—Sick soldiers_ who have

the insurgents' country give doleful accounts
of the treatment their forces received during
the engagement in the Azalea hills, between
Cienfuegos and Trinidad. The coluinn of
Spaniards was 3,200 strong, composed of in
fantry and cavalry. Fighting was maintained'
for seven days,.during which, say the Span'
lards, many men* were killed. The enemy ap
peared in superior force, and did not allow
the troons of, Spain, to rest either by day or
night. Whether eating or sleeping they were
being constantly•ammyed, till at length they
retired from the campaign.
THE MACHETE ATTACK AT GLTAIMARO,
One who was in Puello's army during the
late march writes that the insurgents began
to tire upon . him at a short distance from
Nueyitas, harassing him day and night ; and
between Casearro and Guainiaro' they ap
peared with the greater portion of their
forces. An attack by the Cubans with
the machete decided the day, and a
land-grenade throWn 'front their ranks
killed nearly all of Puello's stall. A
few stepsfrom ,VOL' Karin fell dead,
r 'and all its artillerists were killed. The Yogi=

The steady and increasing demand for theee Wines, the
growth of a State peculiarly adapted in soil, climate,
&c., has induced the aubecriber to give them special at-
tention. It is well ascertained that the rich and well
ripened grapes of that particular section impart to the
wine flavor, bouquet and.body equal to the beet foreign
wines, and of a character peculiarly its own—the unani
mous opinion of experienced connoisseurs of this and
neighboring cities.
The undersigned has accepted the Agency of the cele
Grated
