?JEW irtiILICATIONK We receive the kventi) a*eightWoolatues of Fronde's Diszory of England, in'the Amer-- tan edition, prepared by Charles :Scribner & Co. These volumes are beautiful, and are 'AMOY compassable by the hand 'in reading -and by the pocket in buying. An entirely new lustre is thrown by the present historian upon the English renaissance, • . 4, the spacious Vanes of great Elizabeth." The bearings of !the 'Spanish archives found at the Castle of 'Simancas, in • Spain, upon the Elizabethan period, are entirely new, and are asserted by Mr. Fronde with all the zest of discovery; they especially lend 'themselves to the period iieacribed the two volumes now last issued, which are the first and second of that division 'el the Worit called the " Reign' of Elizabeth.'' The episode of Darnley's murder, ascribed by 11r..Froude directly to Mary Queen of Scotts, lends a cruel interest to this instilment of the 4 18 0 .1 1. . , , o:Scribner & Co.'s commodious American 'edition of Lange's Commentary on the Scrip tureS puts into the poorest theological student's ;band a work of excellence and fame. 'The translation, with additions, is by Dr. Philip 'Schaff. The present volume corresponds to Parts XII and XIII of Dr. Lange's Bible ' work, and contains the Solomonic writings, the Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Canticles. For AmeriCan readers the present edition is made additionally valuable by the labors of American theologians of the highest scholarship, who ae --company§ at every step the• studies of Drs. Lange and Zockler. Hurd dw Houghton's edition of Hans Chris tian'Andersen, in beautiful crown Svo volumes, with ,cuts, is worthy of the author and of his genial American reputation. The volume of Wonder Tales, just sent sus by J. B. Lippin cott C0.,-is a handsome affair of • 550 pages, most abundantly illustrated. Of all the divi sionti of the Present issue that of Wender Tales is most ebarieteristic ofAndersen. - The Won der Tales are arranged in two volitnies, of which we now speak of the first. In it are gathered the stories which in Danish would , come under the. title Erentyr; those, that „is, in which the Marvelous and fanciful predomi nate, such as "The. Ugly Deckling," "The Shoes of Fortune," "The Emperor's New Clothes," The Dryad," etc. This collection comprises some stories not before translated into English, and includes some of those con tributed by Andersen to the Ilirerside Maga zinc: The illustrations, 120 in number, coin priSe the most popular German pictures by Pedersen, together with new designs by M. L. Stone, an English draughtsman of reputation. The latter of the two Volumes of stories will con tain those stories and narrative which have their basis more in fact, those that in Canish would come under the title Hi.storier. Some of the best of Andel sen's work is to be found in this volume ; his " Picture-Book without Pictures," "Sand Hills of Jutland;' "The, Ice-Maiden," etc. The storieS contributed to the' Riverside, not published in the preceding volume, are em braced in this, and the book will be illus trated from original designs by American ar tists. The two voltimes together contain the - whole of Andersen's shorter tales, and present the only complete edition in the English tongue.—Anderseh's diamonds and male-sap phires, his captain jewels, touch each other in this collier. Ilis more elaborate inventions, curious,'heartful and allbcting as they are, do not attain the perfect grace, rightness, and rarity of the matchless-fancies strung together in the present volume. The price of it is $2 25. " Beyond the Breakers;•a Story of the Present Day'," by Robert Dale Owen, is republished by Lippincott & Co. from Lippincat's Magazine, whose columns it long occupied as a serial. It is, as,the title indicates, a tale of modern -life, the scene changing from Philadelphia to West ern Ohio in the course of the narrative. Mr. Dale Owen is known everewhere as a man of acute originality in, thought, and the romance, before us, 'while written in the lightsome style, of a fiction, embodies some of his most pro found and most personal philosophy. With all its humanitarian merit, however, "Beyond the Breakers" betrays an irksome want of fit ness to its vehicle; it is evidently the work•of . a philosopher who seizes upon fiction as an unaccustomed tool for probing and • • reaching a new . stratum of the public. The book contains allusions gratifying to all right-minded 'Philadelphians. The wholly noble and strictly disinterested Prison services of our own Mr. Mullen are recognizable in the toed offices of " Mr, Kellen," who works out the pi.oofs of innocence for the nian who has been led to convict hiteself at his trial. When the back-pound shifts to scenes of village life in the West, -there ate touches of nature and.chalacter which prove Mr. Dale• Owen to have been an observant traveler. Altogether,. 1 - nixed as its merits ate, we expect for this hook a considerable, if a local, popularity. The ii histrations, by Prof. Schtiessele .and Mr. Ben tsen, are those which, for their JOrce, inventive ness and care, have attracted so much attention in the .Magazine. CAROLINE LEE Ilescrz.—Messrs. Peterson . & Bros. are progressing with their neat edition of Mrs. Hentz's works. The last volume pre pared is " Helen and Arthur, or Miss Thusa's Spinning-Wheel." Mrs. Hentz's 'delineations' of life in the South before the war have the ad vantage of intimate knowledge, the lady having kept her bright eyes well open to the 'peculiari ties of southern society. Everything slie writes is at once innocent and good, and romantic and entertaining. She does not provide double distilled stimulus, perhaps; but she mixes a pleasant, refreshing, sweet, and wholly Ameri can concoction. Only four more books, out of the edition of twelve, are yet to come. 'The issue is a very pretty one, at $1 'l5 the • volume. LITERARY.

News and General Heins. (Correspondence of the Philadelphia ay. u nut Bulletin.) Wir.rtnNotoN, Feb. 25.—The well-known car-building firm of Jackson & Sharp has been dissolved, and a corporation chartered by the last Legislature, to be known as the "Jackson & Sbar p Willowy," will soon be . organizetLto carry on the business on a more extensive scale. • The Wilmington Rolling-mill Company has suspended operations for about two weeks, and will resume with a smaller face at reduced wages. ICmployeis allege ,that : they cannot' _ make anything at the present rate of wages. Iron has fallen in price, but labor continues as' high as at any time daring. the 'war. The' Diamond State Rolling-mill Company has also suspended operations, but this is owing to an accident to their ' largest engine. They expect to resume 'in about ten days, but they also talk Of stopping, I hear, if the Irten.do not. consent to some reduction. TheSe are the only mills here making bar iron, and their sus pension will cause great inconvenience: Pusey, Jones & Co.. have on the stocks an iron steamer for the Peruvian Government.' This firm has a' large South Anierican trade. Nineteen-twentieths, of all the : steamers in South American waters have : been built ; by them or, by the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company, also of this city. The English builders cannot compete,Scrt •this work, as the vessels are very shallow and *III ha 'stand a voyage across the'oeettn. ,TheY:* sent trom here without difficulty: There seems to be. a temperance revival in this city at present. The temperance orgamia tions are unusually active, and temperance meetings are being held, and temperance sermons preached in the churches. Hon. Geo. P. Fisher, Judge 'of the District of Columbia Supreme Wirt, proposes to` re move shortly tOlhis-city,, and it is rumored in political circle's-that his design is to become a candidate for the United 'States Senate from this State. Judge Fisher represents that por tion of the Republican party. in this State which in the past has dictated • its policy, but which has thus far failed to exercise. its . accustomed in Cuence . with the present Administration; the appointments having been largely influenced by the .Wing whose headquarters is in this city. The return of the Judge to this. State is re gal ded by thew as conclusiveeVidence that the fight is not ended'. The first, triumph of the "Wilmington. clique," as it is galled, was in getting representation ac cording to population in the State, Convention, and their second in forcing through the Convention, some two years ago, a demand for the passage of a Constitutional amendment granting universal suffrage in ad vance of similar action by any other. State. They Were tentroiarily prostrated by the action - of the National Convention in adopting a plat feint hostile to such action, but soon rallied, and succeeded in controlling appointments throuthout the State. 1 do not think there is any present' danger Atit the dissension causing any breach in the party, but nothing will ever induce the large body of Republicans in this county to submit again to have the party wholly controlled by' the very small body of Republicans in 'Kent county. , So much for the "wheel within a wheel." The status of the two opposing parties remains unchanged, and the Democrats manifest a dis position to stand by the color issue, and to proclaim themselves a " white man's party." Nest well-informed politicians consider it cer tain that the patty will be completely over whelmed if it maintains this pcisition.

The sale of objects of art, curiosi ties, furniture, aims, &c., will begin on the 22d of March, and will continue at short intervals until the 28th of April. Persons desirous of attending the sales, or of sending orders, have yet sufficient time to do so. —Ptei mations -for tlie appearance of the work on " Typical London," by Gustave Dore and Blanchard Jerrold, are now so far ad vataed that the artist is Ott:int to leave Paris to titalot his concluding studies of the phases of London so, iety during what. is called the sea son: '1 he wank wiN art oar in forty quarto palm Item the press of an eminent firm of eoloi-p lit s. and VI in contain upwards of one Jottttirt d triginal ?ketelies of metropolitan life. , Some st tiking pt ison ham ions are among them, and, tit,-,Nt to Ile titer-side life of London, we are told that Neu gate scents to have taken the twist pew beld no Dore's weird imagina tion. _ll is also t , tato.d that Dnr6 is•complethi g a brilliant sulks of illustrations -of the "Ara bian N " , autd " Orlando' Furioso, " ant his admitets will be tleliAted to know that he has redrawn and refined his famous pictorial commentaries of Rabelais. THE COAL TRADE. Report from the Anthracite Region. From the blanch Mink Cat/ Gazette of yes terday we get the following: There was transported over both railroads 71,573 05 tons against 61,002 14 tons the cor responding week last ear—an increase of 10,- 4FO 11 tons. Of this 5,615 02 tons wer.-3 delivered to the Lackawanna and Bloomsbury' Railroad for shipment north, and 65,958 03 tons came south for'delivery along the tiße'* - o', at tide water; Our report shows an Inticag6; of 15,001 10 tons 'over the tonnages of the, pevinus week. Tlat state of the trade remains generally the same as last week. .The late exceedingly cold weather had the efli•ct of stiffening prices en. the small sizes, which have for some days past been going ell wore briskly at quotations. The laqer sizes continue to di ag, and the impres-, sion seems to exist that until the tariff question is disposed of by Congress no change for the better %ill occur. Manufacturing has been dull all winter; most of the large concerns are carrying heavy stocks and are doing but little. Thq will not open up their spring trade until the new tariff bill is passed, and they have a definite basis on which to begin operations. This condition of things ruins the . Inarket, for the larger size of coal, and is felt especially in :this region, wherellrerp'aresnetrvidied and ex tensive matrufs:COOltig ' itiferegt4.'"Wben our !, *any furnaces awl reiling-mills are driving a brisk business; there is sufficient "line trade" to keep coal moving, but with the iron interest crippled, the city markets . drugged, and the Winter t tradc a ll:iliac, it itreot surprising that cperators should feel disheartened.

The new number of Zadkiel's " prophetic .almanac is made the subject of humorous com ment in Once a Week. It says "The Emperor of the French, according to a carefully cast nativity of Zadkiel, is in no dan ger of tnntbling Charon with a fare for twelve months at least. Objection could be taken to the : itreverence of the prophet in saying of au Emperor, 'the year 1870 opens favorably for the imperial native '—native being irretrieva bly-.associated with nigger' in the British ntinti,•and especially with that particular de velopment of nigger which was in attendance on a certain knowing major whose memory is' ever green. But when the conclusion of the horoscope declares 'the , year is prosperous to him generally,' much may be forgiven. Then, again, what • com foi t must be conveyed by the sentenee—' In June he is troubled by the press.' To an Em uelor w rithing daily under such torture as can he inflicted by venomous censors with an epigtatinnatie turn of mind, the inferenee of eleven months' kef' ought to be soothing in the extreme.. 'ln August,' continues the seer, he Increaser' his amides; and will be +.ldlll of warlike dispositions, and, if at - war, he will gain some battle.' Happily there has always been much virtue in aw Y if,'4though a, fool was the' first to discover the' fad, and We take com fort. Altogether, his imperial Majesty has every reason to be satisfied with• Zackiel ; and if sublunary ,honont 'may be conferred with propriety on a limn who . is on intimate terms with Jupiter and other leading planets, Napo leon should ' recognize Tap Sze the next time Ire is distributing bite of ribbon. If the stars are thus favorable to the French Oresar, their :•aripecO' is Menacing to wards the next greatest European sovereign, King of Plussia. His Majesty is. doomed. In May next his planetary condition is terribly' badi as is indicated by the follow tneawful touriPtoint: 'Moon opposition Mars, zod con e 73 deg. 10 min., and M. C. square and. eon. 73 deg. 10 min.' Dreadful as this appears, Worse remains behind ; for Zadkiel continues : And, as Saturn will be this Month retrograding over his ascendant, we may hardly hope he will long escape the , hour when he shall bear the great summons. Under such circumstances the seeris proba bly justified in adding the solemn' warning, Let him therefore prepare. looks almost like profanity to hint in reference go this se rious matter that the predict:lonia:ray contain both bane and antidote; especially the latter. Something might pdssibly be done by 'squaring' . Mars; if that disreputable luminaty could be induced for a consideration to refrain front mis behaving with 'auk con' whoever she may be—the king might escape; anti Count Bismarck ought to look to it at once. l'hirttgh the Berlin exchequer hits not benefited by' the recent high tide, the Prussians would makeAan effort to behalf of their grim old God-fearing drill-ser geant. It seems odd to suggest such a slangy terrestrial operation'as 'squaring*. in connec tion with celestial bodies, but, the practice seems to nevail In the upper circles, for Zad kiel plain ly states, in his predictions for Feb ruary, that on the fith of this month Saturn will square, the sun. There are other monarchs •in a parlous state,' as well as he of Prussia. The Kings of 'Saxony' and Italy would do well to follow the grave advice given by Zadkiel to' King Will'arn, and 'make their souls,' as an Irishman would say, with as little delay as possible. They are both astrologically referred to in the month of March as hif now living," and that phrase is as intelligible as it is ominous. The oracle has something to say about the Great Republic, as well as about our petty European sovereigns. A total eclipse of the moon on the 12th July, combined with certain objec tionable proceedings of Saturn aid 3lars at that period, threatens to produce lamentable results. • There seems reason,' says Zadkiel, 4 to expect some serious quarrel with these people, the Americans, who seem more susceptible of planetary influence than most other's. I judge they will pick a quarrel with some other na tion; but I hope it will not be with England. Yet we should be prepared for the .worst. It is more likely to be with Spain.' Our prophet is here a little incoherent ; but there is conso lation in the last sentence. • • • h. The care of Zadkiel does riot fail in noticing even trivial matters affecting the person. Thus, he tells people unlucky enough to call the _'lst ofJanuary their birthday that, during the coming year, they will be liable to injuries, and may break a leg or meet with • other accidents;' and those born on the 16th March are adjured to 'guard against Scalds, to the feet especially.' Nobody can gainsay the need of this piece of advice, but it might have teen made more general in ita application with great advantage. It is not exclusively people horn on Itith March that .are prone to get into hot water. Humanity in general has a surpris ing propensity to put its foot in it, in season and out of season. 4' It is Saturn, by the way, who does most of the mischief, great and small; and he does it by making inconvenient halts every now and then, on his way through space, just as if he were a drunken old zanier. calling at ever so Many public houses on the road, and getting unpleasantly tipsy in each. For example, the • Voice of the Stars' for April whiQpeN ' Saturn will be stationary on the itt„ au•t lie will then inflict many evils on Spain, liungaryi Dalma tia, Tuscany, &e., such as uproars of the peo ple and other misfortunes.' The obviOus remedy is the: appointment ,:of .a planetary policeman, with strict injunctions to com pel this reprobate and degene rate Kronos to fulfil his proper mission, and • move on '—nay, in the words of a forgotten chant of some renown in its day, to push along, keep moving.' Pains are taken by Zadldel to point out the particular days on which the • lunar influences' indicate that business ought to be done with particular sets of people. But it does not seem apparent why the moon should be the guiding influence in such matters, unless in the case of one resorting to an attorney. Then, indeed, Luna must be the ruling planet, and lunatic the proper name of the client. Need it be observed that the writer of this paper consulted Zadkiel with assiduous care, and transmitted hiS manuscript on a day when the stars were propitious'?" • ,M.PQ,IrrTIDNS.
