Those Who would like to study out a problem
of Irish character—and Irish character treated,
no t at all iu the Irish manner, which gilds and
enhances and glorifies everything, but in the
heat realistic manner, with .every detail set
down like an algebraic statement—cannot do
better than take Anthony Trollope's “Macder
inots of Ballycloran,” and read it from beglnr
ning to end. It Is the first work of,the author,
having been written in Ireland in 1847, when,
Mr. Trollope had a position as surveyor for the
General Post Office. Its publication fust called
attention to Mr. Trollope’S ability, which, of
a literal, minute and prosaic cast, was
recognized as revealing more of life and spirit
than the works of more inflated writers. “ The
Macdermots of Ballycloran,”, shows an accu
rate observation of Celtic peculiarities such as
had not, at the time it was written, been im
ported into any Irish novel; of course it
closes with a court-scene, and' of course
court-scene is a bit of perfection, We hope
Messrs. T. B. Peterson&; Brothers, the pub
lishers, will make haste with the good .work of
reviving public interest in the early and half
forgotten achievements of the pen-artist • who
wrote The Small House at Allington.”
Messrs. Peterson & Bros, have now com
pleted, ini twelve volumes, tlieir green and gold
edition of the works of lira.- Caroline. Lee
Hentz, one of our first Southern writers who.
succeeded in winning general favor in the
Northern States. The last volume is named,
from Jhe first tale, “ The Banished Son, and
other Stories of the Heart.” For a large Class
of readers there is no more attractive set of
volumes now before the American public than
these works of Mrs. Caroline Lee Hentz; they
combine some of the very best elements of in
terest in an unusual degree. They are na
tional* domestic and original. They are very
handsomely printed and bound, and the set
will prove an ornament to any book-shelf,
library or centre-table. The volumes are for
sale by all booksellers, or copies of any or all
of them will be sent, post-paid, to any one, to
any place', on receipt of price of the ones
wanted, by the publishers, T. B. Peterson &
Brothers, Philadelphia.
Several striking books have just, been pub
lished by Carleton, New York.—The most cu
rious, scientifically, is a translation of “La Bible
dans 1’ Inde,” or, “ The Bible in India,” by
Louis Jacelliot; this is a statement of free
opinion,the argument of a dilettantew ho believes
that in India, as at a fountain-head, can be
found the bible story of Genesis, the prophe
cies, the symbols of Egypt, the mysteries of
Eleusis, and the teachings of Him whom he
calls “the philosopher of Bethlehem.” -An
other work by the same author, “ The Son of
God,” has been translated and is in press by
Mr. Carleton. —“Our Saturday Nights,” by
the well-known Democratic editor, Mr. Pome
roy, is a collection of litts! sentimental sketches
in which it is hard to recognize the truculent
pen of the Democrat. It is illustrated by
thirty' of Harry Stephens’s spirited
sketches, reproduced by one of the
modern autographic processes, and very
artistic and original.—“ Hammer and ltapier”
is a story of the American Rebellion, by that
swashbuckler John Esten Cooke, sure to be
popular.—“ Helen Gardners Wedding-Day,or,
Colonel Floyd’s Wards,” is a new novel of
American society, by Marion Hariand, author
of “Alone” and “Nemesis.”—The “Story of
a Honeymoon,” by two London litterateurs,
Charles 11. Ross and Ambrose Clarke, is a fresh
little firework of a book, flashing here and there
over the lesser miseries of matrimony and in
experienced housekeeping. There is plenty of
pungent satire and humor in it; and a quantity
of dashing wood-cuts, —slight things, but very
expressive,—add to the success of the squib.—
The above publications are for sale by T. B.
Peterson & Bros, and Turner & Co.
Putnam & Son’s beautiful Knickerbocker
edition of Irving is now completed by the final
volume of Pierre M. Irving’s biography of his
uncle, revised and condensed for the present
issue. “ The Life and Letters of Washington
Irving,” in three volumes uniform with the .
Sketch-Book, Life of Washington, &c., forms
an appropriate supplement to the works of an
industrious lifetime. America is proud both
of the Literature and the Life —both of the
works and the man ; so it was a good thought
to hind the biography uniform with the
writings. This elegant set is printed in the
best style of the Riverside press,on toned paper
with liberal margins, is profusely illustrated
with steel plates and bound in imitation
Turkey with gilt top; Irving’s escutcheon on
the back and autograph on the side serve to
decorate each volume.—Philadelphia agent,
Mr. J. K. Simon, 29 South Sixth street.
The first of a new issue of Grace Aguilar’s
works, “ Home Influence,” is sent us by D.
Appleton & Co. A follower of the Edgeworth
school of fiction, Grace Aguilar has far greater
command of the chords of pathos and emotion
than her mistress. “ Home Influence” is cer
tainly her masterpiece; the troubles and inno
cent sorrows of the sweet young heroine, under
misunderstanding and persecution from those
who love her best, are told with a world of un
affected power. Miss Aguilar’s works will be
complete in seven volumes—a short series, in
dicating her early death at thirty-one—the last
to be her “Women of Israel,” a tribute to her
people, in which the interesting young Jewess
poured out the failing treasures of her patriotic
spirit. The edition is printed with extreme
neatness, with new American illustrations;
bound in cloth in a plain and stylish library
pattern, and sold at a dollar the volume,
liev. Henry Cowles, of Oberlin, Ohio, is the
author of Notes on the Writings of Solomon,
including the Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Can
tides, published by Appleton & Co. The
picseut volume is addressed bpth to pastors
and people, and is written from an interesting
and humanized point of view, evolving the aim
of the Books from the known circumstances
of the author, evidently the first “ man of the
world” of liis age and nation.

CITY BULLETIN.
! —City Councils held a stated meeting yes
terday afternoon.
Select Branch received the resolution of the
Board of Health, declaring South Broad street
a nuisance. A communication was 'received
from the Beneficial Building Association, ask
ing that a culvert he laid in Alaska street (late
Bedford). It was stated, in this connection,
by Mr, Erancisous, that this Association had
been organized for the purpose of purchasing
all the property on Bedford street, from Fifth
to Sixth streets, w.itli it view to its control, and
the substitution of respectable tenement houses
for the buildings now on the street. They
have secured 155 feet, and in furtherance of
their project they ask the oulvort iu order to
provide lor the drainage of the buildings to be
erected., Referred to the Committee on Sur
veys. A resolution for the paving of South
Broad street was adopted. The resolution
from Common Council relative to advertising
for proposals for the erection of a House of
Correction was concurred iu, with an amend
ment. Several resolutions from Common
Council were concurred in.
Common Branch passed a resolution direct
ing the Commissioner of Highways to notify
the contractors for the macadamizing of
Broad street, from Columbia avenue to Ger
mantown avenue, to proceed with their work,
and if not promptly complied with, to annul
the contract. A resolution for the opening of
Diamond street from Broad to Thirty-second
street, was referred to Highway Committee.
The ordinance appropriating $25,000 for the
erection, of a Station House in the Fifth Dis
trict was passed. Mr. Bardsiey, Chairman of
the Finance Committee, presented resolutions
entering satisfaction on the official bond of
Chas. S. Smith, Superintendent of the Girard
Estate, and returning hirn a vote of
thanks. Agreed to. Mr. Bardsiey
then said that the resolution in
structing the City Solicitor to commence
proceedings to test the constitutionality of tho
Delinquent Tax bill, at the request of that
officer and the directions of the Finance Com
mittee, would be withheld for the present, the
City Solicitor being in doubt as to the right of
the city to institute a suit. In answer to the
statement.of Mr. Connell, that the Legislature
had proven that what the speaker had said
some weeks ago was false, he stated that he
had, by letter, requested the Legislative com
mittee to which this bill was referred to call
him and others for examination on the bill,
but he nor his colleagues never were called 1
for examination. He reasserted that Sen
ators and some of the Representatives
at Harrisburg were cognizant of the fraudu
lent character of the bill passed. Messrs. Con
nell and Henzsey promised him to vote for
the hill jjroposeii by Councils, anil three hours
afterwards opposed it. He then referred to the
assertions of'Mr. Connell as to the character
of the management of the business of the city
by Councils, and ridiculed one .man’s setting
lnmself up against the whole body of Councils,
and asserted that Councils would not have
been connected with such a transaction. Mr.
Wagner tlioughtMr. Connell had his hands
full,"but had seen proper to refer to what the
speaker had said. He declared that when Mr.
Connell pretends to quote in his pamphlet
what the speaker had said relative to the sell
ipg of taxes, he said, either through ignorance
or wilfully, what was not true. He either is a
knave or fool. He evidently does not know
what lie. is talking about. Ho charges that
Councils do not know how to manage the
finances of the city’; but does he not know
that since the act ef consolidation Councils
had been hampered by the acts of the Legisla
ture, and could do nothifig but what they were
permitted to do by Mr. Connell and his col
leagues ? Resolutions for the paving of nu
merous streets were adopted. Resolution
for changing tho place of voting in the second
division, Ninth Ward, and an ordinance
creatiug a new division in the Nineteenth
Ward, were adopted.
In joint convention Mr. Strickland Kneoss
was reflected Chief Engineer and .Surveyor
of the city.
—Upon the enrollment of colored militia,
Attorney-General F. C. Brewster has for
warded the following opinion to the Ad
jutant-General of tho Commonwealth:
OIFI OF OK ATTOItNKV-GKNKRAn, Hak
itisnciti;, April 12, 1870.— lion. A. L. Bussell,
Adjuiatd-Uintral Penna., Sir: —The letter of
Col. L. E. French, Jr., to you, of date 7th in
stant,, with your endorsement thereon, to this
department, has been duly received and care
fully considered.
Col. French, in his letter to you, states that
tin; Fifteenth Amendment having become a
law; lie presumes there will bo no “ further
difficulty in having his regimentmustevedinto
the militia of the State.”
Your endorsement thereon requests my
opinion as to the following question :
Can colored citizens of Pennsylvania,
under the laws ot Pennsylvania, or of the
United States, be enrolled in the militia of the
State, organized into brigades, regiments,
battalions and companies, and be armed and
equipped by the State?
The point thus suggested is of great import
ance—fortunately, however, it nresents a,
question of but little difficulty. The Consti
tution of the State (Art. VI, Sec. 2; Br. Dig.
2d), provides that
“The freemen of this Commonwealth shall
-be armed, organized and disciplined for its
defence, when and in such manner as may he
directed by law. Those who conscientiously
scruple to bear arms shall not be compelled to
ilo so, but shall pay an equivalent for personal
service.”
The first section of the Act of April 21,1858
(Br. Dig.,7lH, § 1), imposed military duty as an
obligation upon “ all able-bodied white male
citizens, between the ages of 21 and 45 years,
residing in this State, and not exempted by the
laws of the United States.” r ‘
But the 27tli section of the same act which
provides for the organization of volunteers,
contains lib restrictions as to color; for it de
clares that “ whenever any number of persons,
not less than 82 rank and tile, shall volunteer
* *’ to form a uniform company, * *
they shall present their roll to the Brigade In
spector, &o.”
Under this section, persons of color could at
any time have volunteered. But, had it been
otherwise, and had the law confined the right
of volunteering to white citizens, it would
seem very clear that the effect of the recent
amendments is to abolish all such distinctions
and to place every person upon au equality
before the law.
Any other view oftlio question would lead
to the conclusion that while colored persons
may enjoy the right of sutlrage they cannot bo
compelled to bear arms.
'.this would, of course, be au absurdity, for
all who enjoy a privilege must aooept its obli
gations.
j I am, therefore, of opinion that tho question
submitted by yoU should be answered in the
affirmative, and that the colored oitizens can
Vo enrolled, organized, armed and equipped
gs part of the militia .of the State. \
i With great respect, your obedient Servant,
•F. Cabkomj Brbwstkr,
j . Attorney-General.
I Kate .Hill, a servant in the family of Mr.

, —Tho Spring GardenTnstitufe held its nine
teenth annual meeting last evening. The an
nual report of the Secretary set forth that

—Samuel and John D. Humphreys', proprie
tors of the Florence House, at Eleventh and

Station yesterday, on the charge of maintain
ing a nuisance. The witnesses were residents
in the neighborhood, who testified to frequent,
disorders, and to the house being the resort of
males and females at unseemly hours. Tho
Alderman did not think that a case had been
made out, and discharged the accused.
—Horticultural Hal) was crowded last even

NEW JERSEY MATTERS.
Taroet Practice.— Co. C, Fifth Battalion
National Guards, of Camden, under command
of Captain Benjamin F. Connelly, have made
arrangements to go on an excursion to the
Deep Cut, about a mile from Camden, on
Monday next, for target practice. This Com
pany is handsomely uniformed and equipped,
ard makes a very elegant appearance. It is
composed of men who have seen hard service
during the war, and their soldierly bearing is
commendable.
The Cerebration.— Tho colored citizens
of Camden and the various townships are
making extensive preparations for celebra
ting the adoption of’the Fifteenth Amend
ment, on tbe 28th instant. In the morning
Divine services are to be held in the churches;
iu the afternoon a procession will be formed
which will parade through many of the prin
cipal streets, And.iu the evening a mass-meet
ing will be held in the Court-house. The day
will be an eventful ene, and of the highest im
portance to the colored people. Every one
should, therefore, observe- the utmost deco
rum.
The Soldiers’ Monument.— The soldiers’
, monument is a theme that has, for some time
past, excited much interest eoncerning the site
on which it shall be erected. A resolution has
been passed by the members of Post No. t>,
Grand Army of the Republic, of Camden, lo
cating it at Third and Market streets, pro
viding that the eity will.give them permission
to do so. This is the most eligible place for
this tribute to the dead, and a memorial will
be submitted to the next, meeting of tho Coun-
Y:ii, asking for such authority, which it is be
lieved will be granted. A survey of the streets
has been made, and a plan drawn, showing
that the erection ef the monument there will'
not in any way interfere with the passage of
carriages on either side.
Sentences of the Court.— I Tbe following
sentences were passed by Judge Horner, of
tbe Special Court, in Camden, yesterday after
noon : William L. Smith, riotous assault and
batter}', four indictments, fined $5 and costs
on each; same, for malicious mischief, two in
dictments, $1 and cost each : Edward Kelley,
Andrew Jackson, John Howard, Robert
Howard and Alfred Harmer, malicious mis
chief and riotous assault and battery, $5 and
costs each ; Moses Bailes, assault and battery,
$j and costs; George West, petty larceny,

petty larceny, thirty days in county jail; Geo.
West, assault and battery, forty days in county
jail; David daggers, assault and battery, $5
and costs ; Mary Park, assault and battery, $1
and costs; Sarah A. Winner, assault and bat
tery, SI ami costs ; Sarah L. Moore, bigamy,
$lO and costs; Charles Wainer, bigaiuv, $2O
and costs—both stand committed until tlie pen
alty is paid. The Court then adjourned.

chase of Mr. Calvertey’s bust of the late Charles
L. Elliott, M.,Ai, assembled at tbe Academy of
Design, and through Mr. Geo. Wm. Curtis
made ft formal presentation of the bust to the 1
Academy. The liust had been previously
placed in the library. It is mounted on a hand
sonic pedestal, oh which are engraved tlfe date&
of Mr. Elliott’s birth and decease, and is said
bjr those who knew Mr. Elliott best .to be a
most striking likeness,,.... Mr, Curtis, .in
uiaking 'the ptesintatioii. referred to the'
early career of Mr. Elliott, to his un
wearied industry, to .liis modesty, generosity
and amiability of feeling. The man, he said,
Waff hidden in tlie artist. Mr. Elliott led the
life of a hermit, so far asthe affairs of the world
were concerned. Of them he knew absolutely
nolbfng. Mr. Curtis then related a number of
anecdotes of the deceased, and said tbat nothing
to bitu appeared more .unaccountable than the.
fact that though Mr. Elliott had, as it were, the
whole aff treasures of Europe before him, he ,
never skeined desirous of crossing tlie 1 ocean to
view them. ’Mri Curtis concluded by paying'
a;most tender and eloquent tribute' to the many
virtues of the deceased. , , i , ■ •

them from the civil darts of this dear city.” A

“ Please excuse attending office to-day, as my
grandmother despatched her life and want to

“ fever and grapes,” requests a day’s leave, as
he is “ unfortunately ill by blessing of God.”

. The first three prizes in tho Brooklyn

Brenzinger and Delmar.
We forgot to mention that the old Lon
don: Chess ‘ Clnb has ceased to exist. It was
established in the first decade of the century.
—— We have received from the well-known
comedian, Mr. Owen Fawcett, a batch of
Chess matter, consisting of London Era and
other Chess columns. Mr. Fawcett is heartily
thanked for his unique contribution.
We commence to-day the publication
of What we deem the best two, three, four, live,
tdx, and seven-move problems. We shall be
glad to receive our readers opinion of these
positions, and also any problems which they
may consider superior.
Problem No. 729.
In our opinion the best two-move problem.
At the time of its publication it created a great
sensation throughout the States. We may
mention two other problems, the compositions
of M essrs. C raves and Maracho, as nearly ap
proaching this.

IV. The plans completed and
money expended for vigorous fin

V. The excessive earnings to ac

VI. The ample Sinking Fund for
the certain redemption of the

VII. The very liberal interest,

VIII. The security afforded by

IX. The Mortgage covering the
