Messrs.
,Lee &Shepard, Of
. Iloston, iwre re- .
eeiatly published en excellent selection from
the dialogues of Charles Dickens, to be used
as character-readings,or semi-theatrical displays
ki schools. Dickens's conversations being so
racy, so inneee i nt, and so popular, were more
suitable for the purpose then these of any other
novelist. Forty-five dialogues are given, wrth
a useful index to characters and costumes.
" Dialogues from Dickens" is attractively pub
lished in 1.2tn0. on•tinted paper, with designs
by Eytinge.—The increased attention now
being paid to musical education, as tiTegular
part Of school instruction, has prefared•
the Nyay for an excellent series of Works in
musical literature, for the young, of which the
title will be " The Tone Masters." The first
of the series is now ready, by the anthor of
46 The Soprano," Jane Kingsford. It is de
voted to Mozart and Mendelssohn. A
series of modern parlor conversations
between old and young people is Made
to develop the histories of those com
posers and the significance of their works, in a
way agreeable and tempting to the childish
reader. Much information, and a general pre
paration towards a musical taste, are_ thus at
tractively inculcated...• The series 'is to be con
ducted by . E. Tout*. It is illustrated, and
prettily. got up.—The "Lake Shore Series,"
by Oliver Optic (Wm. T. Adams), is continued
by a fifth volume, " Brake' Up," with a sensa
tional frontispiece of a man thrown on the
tailway-track. "Brake Up," though an inde
pendent story, reintroduces the characters of
the preceding issues. While Captain Wolf
Penniman still remains true to his high stan
dard of duty, Nick Von Wolter is represented
as ambitious to put himself forward in the
world, without allowing himself . to 'be strictly
guided by religious principle ; and the result is
against the 'evil-doer. The series will be
prolonged by the volume .. now in press,
" Bear and Forbear; or, the Young Skipper
of Lake Ucayga."—" The Overland 'Route to
the Pacific," a ninety-seven page Pamphlet by ,
Hon: E. H. Derby, of Boston, gives; in a small
compass, a graphic sketch of the new railways
across, the continent; and 'a picture of their
condition and resources. It gives also a lively
description of palace cars, mountain scenery,
orchards, and speeches of the Mormons, of ' the
gardens and-wheat fields of C"cornia, 'and the
sheep-walks and fisheries of' the Pacific coast.
The reader will feel somewhat as if he had
himself grossed the continent in a palace
car.—Of a more ' amorous complexion is'

by Rev. John Todd, D. D. This excellent
pedagogue, whom everybody supposed to have
been slain by the ferocious attack of that awful
pugilist, Gail Hamilton, appears to have been
only knocked as far as the California coast,
where he lands sitting, in unabated sweetness,
adjUsting his rose-colored spectacles to the
various points of the landscape. He loves and
admires everything he sees, to a , degree which
has provoked a little raillery on the part of the.
San Franciscans, who seem not to likeheing
caressed. On nearly every page the medicinal
flavor of the " Student's Manual
." comes out,
like the tang in castor-oil candy. But it is 'a
safe book.—The above works .are for sale by

ME CBEAM. OF THE NEW BOOKS.
Lord Elgin's Second Embassy to China,
Mr. Henry Brougham Loch, after a strange.
delay, gives to the world, through the London
publisher, John Murray, a personal narrative
of his adventures with Lord Elgin, whom he
served as Secretary, on the second Plenipo
tentiary Mission of the latter to China in 1860.
"The book," says Mr. Loch; " has no preten
sion to being a complete history, or an official
record of Lord Elgin's second embassy; and to
avoid any reference to matters likely to lead to
discussion of a controversial character, I have
endeavored to confine myself almost. exclu
sively to the description of those events which
came under my personal observation." An
interesting episode is the narrative of the ad
vance to Tien-tsin, and the progress from
thence to pekin, during. which the Chinese, in
contempt of the flag of truce, recommenced
hostilities, and took several Englishmen
others the writer of this
Volume. Nothing could have been more un
expected than this gross, act of treachery.
After a conference with the Imperial
CimaniSSioners, it had been agreed that , the
allied armies should be quin;tered within
a few miles of Tung-chow„ while the ambas
sadors with a large escort proceeded to Pekin.
Mr. (now Sir Barry) Parkes' and Mr. Loch
were sent on before the army to make• .a few
final arrangements. They were accompanied
by Mr. De Norinaun and Mr. Bowlby, the
Times' correspondent, and were protircted by a
military escort under the command of Lieut.
Anderson. "It was a lovely cool morning,"
writes Mr. Loch, "and we set forth in high
spirits, for we thought we saw the prospect of
an early and successful termination to the
war." Their expectations were quickly disap
pointed, and the messengers made prisoners by
Chinese treachery. The 41.ceauut of the. at
tempted escri e pe from Tung-chow is vigorously
narrated. It was a hopeless effort, and ere
long The Englishmen found themselves in the
middle of the Chinese army. They were ac
costed by a mandarin who promised them a
safe conduct from the eouatuander-yin-Chief,
and proposed that two of the party thlthl ac
company him to the GeueraL
We agreed that two of us should ac
company the mandarin, and Parkes, turning
round, said, "I will go if Loch will accompany
me." At this time we had two flags of truce
flying, one belonging to the escort, the other
my handkerchief. which was still on Nal-sing's
spear-bead. I called him to come with us, and
with a last good-by to the others, saying," We
shall soon be back," galloped off with the
Chinese officer.. I shall never forget my last
view of that party. The Sikhs was leaning
for ward i (heir horses to ease their breathing,
and to watch what was passlug ; Auderson,
Brabaiod.and De Normaori were talking to
gether Ina group, while Bowiby, about a
horse's leserth distant, looked exhausted arul
anxious, and WaS drawing his 'revolver from
its case. Etched octet, expresSed aWA to see
how the Chin se could really fight, and. as L
passed : W(1,1 said, " 1 think, BoWlliy, you will
soon have your wish fulfilled."
They had npt gone far before a body of in
fantry seized their bridles, and pressed
their matchlocks against their bodies. This
danger was no sooner averted by the prompti
tude of, t,lieir guide khan they. encountered

army, with a numemis stab. lie laughed at
their flag of truce and• abused them soundly.
Parkes turned to • Hie and said: "I fear we
are prisoners." We pulled back our horses
and Wok a look round to see if there was any
way by which we might attempt to escape. By
this time the,Chinose infantry had formed in
sll round, us, pressing the muzzles'of their
matchlocks' against our bodies, waiting only
for the signal to fire to be given. One glance
told us how hopeless any resistance would be ;'•
and as we attempted to push forward we were
half pulled, hallknoeked off oiir horses. I told
the old Sikh, who kept his eyes constantly on
me, to, cease to struggle further. We were
scarcely on the ground when oar arms were
seized and twisted behind us, and we were
thus shoved Ibrward. to the back of the stream,
where a couple of flat-bottomed boats were
.laid lengthways across it; over these we were
half carried,' and shoved down on our knees
before Sang.ko-lin-sin, who threatened and
stormed 'at us, the men behind culling us on
our•heads and.. faces, one man seizing me by
the back of the neck and rubbing my head and
face in the dirt. • •
This is but a slight foretaste of the indigni
ties the prisoners were destined to undergo.
They were kicked, they were beaten, they were
pulled by their hair and beards, and finally,
• bound hand and foot, they were . fiung into a
cart and driven to Pekin. The agony of the
drive was terrible, for , they were thrown'
backwards . and ibrwards with' such vio
lence that Mr. Loch wonders they sur
vived it.
The dust and heat of the sun were intense,
and our throats were parched from exhaustion;
they gave us, however, no water, but occasion-,
ally an extra'pull at the whip-cord which bound:
our wrists, wetting it with water to cause it, to:
shrink.
One slight incident of this horrible journey,
which landed them in the worst of Chinese
prisons, is recorded :
As•we approached the gate, numbers of
women from carts and cbairswere gazing
curiously and contemptuously at ,
us. We:had
now been long' silent. Suddenly I heard
Parkes say, "How beautiful !" I asked him
what? He sad, "That woman." Thinking
the beauty must be 'great indeed Witt Could
strike his attention in his thenexhauStetistatei':
I got my head up to the edge of the cart, arid
,saw the most lovely face, if a face can be
lovely deyoid of all feeling and intellectual ex
pression.
Mr. Loch's views on the much-discussed
burning of the SuMmer Palace are worthy of
attention. Ho considers that, whatever regret
may be felt at_the_destruetion_oLthis_enormous
.palace, it was forced upon Lord Elgin by the
exigencies of his position. It was in this very
palace that some of the prisoners had endured
the tortures under which they sank, and the
sight of the remains of De Normann, Ander
son, Phipp and Bowlby, together With the re
port that Brabazon and the Abbe de Luc had
been beheaded, aroused universal indignation.
Other reasons for burning the palace are ad
vanced by Mr. Loch:
Winter was rapidly approaching; the com
manders-in-chief had already informed the
ambassadors that by an early date the armies
would have to retire.; the treacherous conduct
of whiCh the Goverhment had been guilty was
still fresh in the minds of all, Chinese and Eu
ropeans alike,and it was felt that if it was allowed
to pass without some signal example being
made, it would encourage the belief that simi
lar acts could be perpetrated with impunity,
and the position of the members of the future
resident embassy in Pekin might be thus en
dangered if the Imperial Government were not
made aware that punishment would surely for;
low any act of treachery. It was also felt that
no money indemnity could compensate for the
insult inflicted ; and moreover, that if an in
demnity had been enforced, it would have fal
len on the people, and not on the Emperor or
mandarin classes. It was also desirable, in
I consequence of the early withdrawal of the
armies, rendered necessary hflhe advance of
winter, to mark in some way which would
place it beyond all dispute that the Allies had
occupied Pekin as conquerors, otherwise the
Imperial Government would be apt to deny the
fact, and to assert that the Allies had been
• forced to retire by the Imperial army.
OUR WILMINGTON LETTER
News and General Items.
[Correspondence of tho rhuft. Evening Ilullottri.l
WiLmpluToiv, March oth.—The strike
amongst the beamsmen and tanners employed
in the various morocco factories has become
general. The strikers demand $l2 per week
instead of $lO. The occupation is said not to
be a regular trade, but something that can be
learned in a week or so, hence the pay is al
most the same as that received by la
borers.* The places of the strikers
have been filled by other laborers,
and this has led to renewed outrages, followed
by the offer of a reward by the employers far
the detection of the guilty
. parties. A colored
man employed at one of the factories has been
assaulted, and the windows cef his house have
been broken in. The strikers publish a card
in to-day's Conaitci ciai,which comrades as fol
lows :
." We know our rights and dare maintain
them. We would advise the men who take
our places to think well before they do it, and
stay at home, or blame themselves."
Such open and impudent threats as these
render it impossible for the employers to come
to any terms, and take away from 'the strikers
the sympathy they would receive in many
quarters.. Some trouble will grow out of it
yet, probably.
A quintette club and a quartette club, both
led by Engelke, and hailing from Philadelphia,
favoi ed tis with a very .pleasant concert on
Monday evening. lt, was not a very ambitious
musical feast, certainly, but it was a heap
better than nothing. We look forward with
eager expectancy to the time when the Masons
shall finish their hall, and give us occasional
opportunities to hear a good dramatic perform
ance or an opera, without running to Piffle
• delphia fur it.
Some of the friends of the Justice of the
Peace alluded to in my last are foolishly keep
ing the matteralive by getting denials of the
statement published in the Wilmington papers,
and alleging that he was NU away on account
of injuries to his head, received from a fall.
This is silly. The Sanitarium is not a hos,)ital
for broken heads, but an inebriate asylum, and
that was where the man was sent,. He is a
clever fellow, and got along well enough until
he got to be a Democratic Justice of the Peace.
Certainly no one pities him more than I do.
The colored people are making great pre
parations for the celebration of the adoption of
the Fifteenth Amendment, and the white 'peo
ple also are beginning to take. a decided in
retest in it. It is eXpected,t,hat the procession
will be time of the largest ever seen in this
city.
The Levy Courts of all the counties have
been or will be in session this week for
.vitsiten of the assessment lists. Thus far the,
unanimously Democratic bodies in both the
lower counties have thrown no obstacle in the
way of plating the names of colored men on
the lists. Two or three thousand have already
been•put on,and it is probable that the number
of votes ttnler the Fifteenth Amendment will
Ire nearly 6,000; width will make - Delaware
Republic n ,Itlntost heyood adoubt. The
Democrats think, hoWever, they will have
large accessions of white men from the
neap mks. , There appears, however, to be
no ground for the delusive hope.

AFFAIJIMS IN WILiKESBARRE.

vision of Luzerne county la meeting with uni
,
versal.disapprobation, not .
irinly in this city, but
throughout the county in general, except those
pikes that will be immediately benefited by it.
Plymouth, the proposed county seat of "Shaw
nee,". ,
Is not quite four miles from . here, vhile
Scranton is seventeen. Wilkesbarre is as near
the centre of the present county and as goods a,
market as could be desired.
An attempt was made to burn the large
brick house at the corner of Butler alley and
the Public Square—the building the Times is to
occupy on and after the Ist of April—but it
istas unsticcessful. The general opinion is that
the friends of the bank robbers, now confined
in the jail, attempted it,thinking by that means
to draw attention away from the, jail, which is
not more than a square away, and then make
a dash for them ; but the jail was too well
guarded and the firemen were too prompt for
them.
Mr. D. B. Snow, formerly of the Hammon
ton, N. J., Republican, has taken the editorship
of the Times in the local department.
The last lecture of the "Home Course" will
be given this evening by the Hon. Wendell
Phillips. ' '
The Record of the Times seems to think the
strike among the miners will be general. I
quote the following paragraph' from that ably
conducted journal:
tg The notice of the suspension was given to
the Wilkesbarre Coal .tf: Iron Company by
, Mr..T. M. Williams through,Mr. D. W. Evans,
, Vice•Piesideot of the corntnittee for this Dis
trict. So far as known, no notice has been
given to any other corporation. Mr. Williams
himself says that the suspension will be general,
and the miners who say anything about it are
very confident that it will be general and will
last for a month atleast.v
A meeting was held last% week, by Several
prominent gentlemen, to establish a Driving
Park on this side of the river. I hope ,tbey will
succeed in establishing one, as it is a thin g
much needed. ' NEMO.

—The sale of the San Donato collection is
now going , on in Paris. A little work by
Bonington reached an extraordinary figure on
Monday, February 21st,and went to the deputy

Delaroclie's grand work, "The Execution of
Lady Jane Grey," was considered a cheap pur-
enase; oy arr. Eaton an mg,tusu memoer or

duction of the same subject, 27,000 f.; the
"Cromwell" went at 23,0001., and the"Staffoo"
for 30,000 f. The " Francesca da Rimirii "of
Ary Scheer produced 100.0001.; and two very
fine subjects by Gallast 25,500 f., and 29,5000
This collection has been estimated at fifteen to
twenty millions of francs. As, however, it is
well known that the whole of it was offered in
one lump some five years ago for one million
of francs, it is difficult to understand bow so
exaggerated a statement could have found cre
dence. As by far the most valuable part of
the collection has now been disposed of, it can
scarcely be expected that the total proceeds of
the sale .will amount to two millions of francs,
or double what the proprietors would have
taken previously.

"And the small .ploop and the little fisher

I ALThN DIONKH,
Reternt Its the cloister.
According to the , Italian
,corre.sponilent of
th,elogne Gazette, the spirit of the ago ap
pears about to invade the cloister. The monks
are in an uproar, and full of,bitterness against,
the Josuits, reproaching them - for trying to
impose restrictions after, their , own fashion on
all other religions communities,: withoet
eog
sidering that their own favored and influential
position in society secures them peculiar pri
vileges and alleviations. The question par
ticularly discussed in this not is that of per
sonal property. The Jesuit does not pos
sess a farthing ()rids own ; he receives food,
clothing and everything from his society;
- whereas, in many other orders it has
been customary to overlook little infractions
of till vow of poverty.. Besides the masses
which a brother says for the community,there
are always some the payment for Which flows
into hie purse. , With this money and a few
other incomings of the kind he provides his
breakfast and his clothing. It IS evident that
many brethren must obtain considerable
means through this little evasion of the law.
and that this stepping-stone, which carries
them over their first vow, often serves as a
bridge by which to get over the others also.
Tke monks compliiin , that they would. be, re
duced to dire necessity if they were obliged
entirely, to fall back on the common property
of their rospective orders; and that a compan-
Ron hetween them and the Jesuits-is
un
fair, as the latter -have very great means at
their disposal.
