Notices of New Books.
Some months ago, we mentioned that Professor
GharleaD. Cleveland has brought out a revised and
muoh-enlarged edition of his "Compendium of
Amerioaii Literature." That book, in a wonder
fully short space of time, has become a standard
work. Its present completeness, and the good
taste with which specimens from many authors
have been selected, qualifies it for all classes of
readers. Professor Cleveland has been induced,
by its recess; to issue an illustrated edition, richly
bound, and daintily printed ou tinted paper. We
take it that this will become a popular and perma
nent gift-hook for all seasons, as it presents so many
exoellinoes for the mind as well ea for the eye.
The illustrations, finely engraved and carefully
printed, aro approved portraits of President Ed
wards, Dr, Franklin, Daniel Webster, Washington
Irving '(at the age of 27, by Jarvis), Richard 11.
'Dana, 3, Fenimore Cooper, Mrs. Sigournepi W. C.
Bryant, James G. Percival; Miss Sodgwiek, Mrs.
Kirkland, N. P. Willis, Ifenry W. Longfellow, J.
G. Whittier, Mrs Osgood, Mrs. Stowe, R. W. Gris
wold, James Russell Lowell, "Edith Miry "—the
last a born and bred Philadelphian, educated by
Mr. Cleveland, who may be proud of his pupil.
Theputhors in this volume, we should add, aro
placeell in chronological order ; but, for the conveni
ence at reference, there is a copious index of per
eons ind subjects.
Wilkie Collins is ono of the most promising of
the -young novelists of England. Ills story of
." Tho Dead Secret" is certainly of the most en
grossing contributions to recent fiction. It has an
earnest intensity which carries the reader on =-
Wearied, but anxious, to the close. That now story
'of his, "Tho Woman in White," the publication
of which has been just commenced in Ifarper's
Weekly, promises well. A new volume from his
pen, called "The Queen of Hearts," which the
Harpers have lately published, fully maintains his
high reputation. In the frame-work of a charm
ing story he has placed various novelettes, some of
whieb had previously appeared in different.peri-
°Mule. Jessie Yelverton, " The Queen of Hearts,"
is a sweet personage for whom all the tales have
been composed, and Just when they aro all related,
in comes a Sebastopol officer, who marries her out
of band, and makes her mistress of Tho Glen
Wirer, where his father and uncles live. Of
course, all the young ladies will read this delight
ful volume.
J. B. Redfield, New York, has published a now,
revised, and illustrated edition of the " History of
South Carolina," by William Gilmore Simms, es
sentially the novelist and poet of the South, and
one of the most accomplished men of letters in
thiaeountry. It traces the history of South Caro.
'lna : from its first Eutopenn discovery, early in the
sixteenth century. through its tenancy by the Eng
lish; down to its erection into a Republic, and 'in a
supplementary book) from tho close of tho War r,f
the Revolution to the present time-1782 to 1800.
This work, written to teach the ,biatory of her
native State to the author's only daughter, is well
adopted for use in public and private education,
besides being a library book in the fullest sense.
Written fifteen years ago, it has lately been care
fully revised and largely extended.. It le en origi
pal work, the materials taken from various sources,
and aticalgamatei and reduced to value In the cru
cible of the author's mind. The concluding chap
ter, giving the events from 1782 to 1860, is full of
lively interest and makes the book almost com
plete It ennnot be wholly eo until a good analyti
ea; index is appended. The illustrations are front
thelasacil of T. Addison Richards. We recommend
the hook art a popular local history of the most re
liable character.
Derby and Jaekson, Now York, hero made some
espital additions to their Library of French Gino
slew, edited by Mr. 0. W. Wight, in a most scho
larly manner. Among those we notice La Eon-
MIN'S Fables, translated into English verso, by
'Mai Wright, with illustrations by Grandville,
with a Life of the author, estimate of his literary
oliaraoter, and critical notices of his works, from
various sources; Madame de Steel's" Corinne,"
translated by Miss Isabel Hill; Pageant "Thoughts,
Letters, and Opuseules," translated by Mr. Wight,
with Introductory notices, and notes from all the
'commentators; "The Martyrs," by Chateau
brimid ; and a translation of "The Ifenriade,"
latt other poems of Voltaire, with copious notes.
htejtries is extremely good, and merits its groat
— 7he amusing writer, WliOte - 110111 - tre-Frume—..-
" Doestloks," is looked upon as ono of the actual
institutions of New York. At all events, ho throws
a groat deal of quaint humor and eccentric fancy
into the Tribune, to which he belongs. News
paper reputation is fragile, but ho who writes a
popular work obtains a name. Doeaticks has
written four volumes, and Peterson de Brother, of
this city, have collected them into a handsomely
got-up uniform series, neatly bound, charnotoriati
catty illustrated by MoLonan, and with the se
vantages of clear type and excellent paper. More
then, we have a quadrilateral budget of keen wit,
broad burner, Dimly comment, and close observe
tion—all bearing, more or loss, upon topics and
persons of the time. Mr. Thompson—we beg par.
don, Doesticks—shoots folly as it dies, and always
sends the shaft home. First came the celebrated
Letters of Doosticks, on a variety of topics, in
which there is that description of Niagara, with
repeated parentheses of beer, which was Doe
stick's commencement at authorship—which ho
has never beaten, well robe writes, and scarcely ever
can. Next, wo have " Plu-ri-bus-tah." a very amus
ing burlesque upon Longfellow's celebrated "
maths." Of the numerous parodies which that charm-
leg poem gave rise to, this by Duosticks was nesu•
redly the best, and its point was pleasantly deve
loped by the numerous suggestive illustrations
millet stud Its pages. Thirdly, "The history and
Records of the Elephant Club," racy and eccen
tric, which might have been written by Washing
ton Irving—had he known the lno and outs of New
York as well as Doestieks duos. Lastly, " The
Witches of New York,'t exposing a system of cheat
ing by which weak-minded women and soft-headed
men have suffered greatly, not only in New York
but in Philadelphia. The witches are, in fact, the
advertising fortune-tellers who profess to be the
mistresses of human destiny, who premise to up.
lift the veil of the shadowy future, and who, like
epics, Will promise any number of children and
all sorts of good fortune to those who will pay for
it. We have but one word to add, which is that,
with all his fun, Doestioks never uses.improper or
oven vulgar language. Ile writes boldly, when the
occasion seems to demand it, but never writes
broadly. Ills works aro morally unexceptionable.
Private theatrleals have gradually become popu
tar in this and other titles, but the groat ditoulty
has been to find dramas completely adapted to
home-representation. The diflloulty has been re
moved by Mr. S. S. Steele, a dramatist of ability
and experience, who has just prepared a " Book of
Plays for Home Amusement," published by G. G.
Evans, of Chestnut street. Some of these plays,
which are varied in manner from the deepest tra
gedy to the most screaming farce, are original;
few are selected ; and the majority have been judi
ciously altered and adapted. Full directions for
performance are given in each case, and the collec
tion is undeniably the best ever published, for its
specific purpose.
Appleton 5: Company, of New York, have pub
lished a volume, of 451 pages, small Bvo, entitled
"A History of the Four Georges, Kings of Eng
land." The author is Samuel M. Smucker, of
this city. He has produced a readable and amusing
work, in which personal incidents in the lives of
the four Georges aro brought more strongly for
ward than the public events of their reigns The.
limits of a single volume restricted him in this ra
sped, and, indeed, when English history is so well
known, the public would prefer the personal de
tails. There are passing notices of individuals of
note who flourished in the Georgian Era, which
give a completeness to the work. The author has
brought a good deal of labor to the collection, ar
rangement, and cohesion of his materials, and has
wrought them up with no mall skill, and with an
evident purpose of dealing fairly with his subjects
—though it is apparent that his private estimate
of their character and mental capacity is not fa
vorable.
Anecdote is freely introduced, and, as
we have said, the book is readable and amusing.
We have found it generally correct, but the neces
sity of condensation has sometimes led the author
into omissions. For example, there is no mention
of the Irish Rebellion of 1708, which woe very
nearly successful, while the petty attempt ofltobert
Emmett, in 1803, is taken notice of. The sketches
of public characters, political and literary, at the
close of each regal biography, are very good.

SKETCH OF THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES
OF CAPTAIN SAMUEL BRADY.
[CONTINUED.]
For The Trace
Most probably Brady was with Hardin as a vo
unteor fighting on amore. The relator gives sub
stantially the following its the leading incidents of
the encounter : The guard discovered the Indians,
and concealed themselves until the latter passad
into a narrow ravine lying between some rocks
and the river. They wore also thrown between
the scouts and the main body. They had no alter
native but to tight their way back through the
pass are the army came up or take to the river.
As they attempted flight in either direction they
were mercilessly shot down. Some of them es
caped by swimming.
One of them, who had been so fortunate as form:lh
the opposite bank, could not refrain from taunting
Brady in a most insulting manner. The (Batelle°
was grunt, but Brady very coolly took aim and fired.
The Indian limped hastily away, evidently very
badly wounded. Be was afterwards trailed by an
Irishman in a tree top, where be had hid himself
and was killed before Brady reached the opposite
shore. It took place about fifteen miles above
Kittanning wording to Brodhead's account. The
name of the , celebrated Bend on the Allegheny
known as Brady's Bend, it is said, wan taken from
this incident. We deem it probable that it took
that name partly from another encounter of Bra
dy's with the Indians In that neighborhood, and
also partly front the fact that some land granted to
John Brady's heirs, by act of the Legislature,
about 1806, was located not far from the Bend.
The other adventure which took place in this
locality is thus beautifully related in the number
of liniderbel fr for July, 18.55. We hero heard
the incidents, nearly as he relates them, from the
lips of old settlers In that region, Peter Henry
among the number. We prefer giving the story,
so far es we have deemed it necessary to quote the
narrative, in the words of the author:
The story I am about to rotate I received from
an old Indian pilot of the Allegheny. It woo
many years ago, when that stern old leader Corn
planter, (whose remains now repose in silence and
loneliness on the banka of that beauteous river he
loved so well,) was in his glory. lilt tribe roamed
over the dense and unbroken forests along its
bank, fearless, unmolested, and free. Ills people
were hostile to the whites, and never loot an op
portunity to lie in ambush and seize the lonely
vnyager as he descended the river, and consign him
to the stake and torture. But the watchful,
shrewd, deadly foe of Coreylarder, and the whole
tawny race, wdit the indomitable and fearless Capt.
Samuel Brady. This veteran pioneer and Indian
hunter was one of those noble specimens of the
hardy foresters who plunged fearlessly into the in•
terminable forests which then overspread so large a
part of the 'Western States.
Like Daniel Boone, Lewis IVetzel, Simon
Kenton, and others who made Indian hunting a
pastime, hie deadly hate of the savage, and his
burning paspion for hunting them down, amounted
to s monotrisials
The scene of the present story is at a place
known to boatmen and raft/men as Brady's Bend,
and when now the notes and btistle of a new
the whoop of t e savage or tie pan resa.
It to a bend in the river, of nine miles in length.
and is sometimes called the' Nine-Nile Bend,' and
is scarcely half a mile across the neck. Rare, in
this bend, Cornplantor, returning from some suc
cessful inroad upon the whites, had secured several
prisoners, and tied them to as many trees, while
his swarthy and hideously-painted followers were
busy In making preparations for the faggot and the
Tho stake was emoted and the faggots prepared
with all the coolness and refinement of Indian bar-
,arity. It was a beautiful evening, the sun wart
1118 t risking behind the lofty hill upon the opposite
- shore. Calmness bad thrown its oily wand upon
the Allegheny's crystal tide, end it slept. The full
round moon, bursting through the tree tops behind
them, sailed calmly through the distant blue, and
cast its mallow beams upon the sleeping river and
danced upon its placid bosom The melancholy
noteof the whippoorwill, from the adjoining thicket,
fell sweetly upon the ear. The victims were un
bound and led forth to the place of execution. At
this moment, a voice high up among the frowning
rock); that loomed out from the thick hemlocks
which crowned theoppoeite bill, bailed Cornplanter
in the Indian tongue, Informing him "that he was
an Indian warrior just returned from the war-path
with it goodly number of prisoners." Ile desired
the ceremonies of torture might be suspended until
he could ford the river and join them, when they
would celebrate the occasion with unusual demon.
strations of savage rejoioinge. To this COrnplanter
consented. The flames that had been kindled were
cxtinguiahod and the prisoners again bound to the
trees.
In the ineantime Brady, for it washo whohad de
ceived the wily Indian, with a body of men, moved
silently up the river to n piece known as " Truby's
Ripple." and there fording the river drew his men
across the neck of the bend, and moved noise
lessly down upon the eavages. So cautious was his
approach, that the Indians were completely cut off
front retreat before they became alarmed. Bra
dy's mon hemmed them in from behind, whilst the
Allegheny relied in front. The first intimation
that the Savages had of his approach was commu
nicated by a deadly discharge front his unerring
rifles. The Indians fought with desperation, but
worn overpowered; all were killed or taken pri
genera save the chief, Cornplantor, who, on finding
himself alone, plunged into the river, and swam
for the other shore. Being a good swimmer, he
remained several minutes under water, but ns he
rose fur breath he was greeted with u shower of
bullets. In this way, alternately swimming under
water es long as he could hold him breath, and
then rising to the surface, he escaped unhurt, and
reaching the ether shore lit safety, secreted himself
behind a large standing rook.
The prisoners wore,
of course, unbound, and
joined in the jollificatlon and joy . at the sudden
and unlooked-for release. Tho rock that sheltered
Cornplanter from Brady's bullets was pointed out
to me by the old Indian, in a recent trip down this
river. ft is known as "Cornplanter's Rock." The
old Indian gave me the story, with a sad and de
jected countenance. In broken English :
Alas! how changed the scone! Whore then
the sheeny tide of the beauteous Allegheny parted
only to the swift-skimming birchen canoe, and
echoed to the wild voices that canto out of the
dense, dark forest, now is hoard the shrill whistle
of the steam-pipe, and the rushing hi the mighty
stunner; where the tawny savage then reclined
upon the shady banks from the pursuit of the
deer, the panther, and the bear, or rested from the
war-path, is now the scene of life and activity.
The tall old forest has receded from before the
advance of civilization, and given place to farms,
to beautiful Vilill9, and bustling towns. The
Indian, too, has passed away; but few, and they
Iniserable decaying relics of what they ones were,
are now (mese:molly seen, the descendants of that
proud race which once could call these hills, and
groves, and rivers, all their own. Alas! in the
language of the poet :
Chieftains and their tribes have perished
Like the thickets where they grow."
One of the early pioneers who owed the preser
vation of his life to Brady was William Bailey,
who died in Robinson township, Washington coun
ty, in 1832. Ile was at the time of his death no
less than eighty-two years of age. lie and four I
others were engaged in the harvest field in reap
ing, when they were suddenly attacked by a large
party of Indians, numbering about thirty. This
was on the 18th day of July. 11t30. All the others
save Bailey were killed. Two of them were bro
thers by the nem° of Shaffer. The lames of the
others sic have not ascertained. With that singu
lar whimsicality which often 'narked the conduct
of the Indiana toward the whites during the bor•
der wars, they presorted Bailey's life.
They soon afterwards began their march toward
the Ohio They Mid concealed nu loes than thir- I
teen birch canoes in the woods upon its southern
bank. The place where they hid them lies below i
the mouth of Raccoon creek, a steel' tributary of
the Ohio putting into that river a few miles below
Fort Itletntesh. They reached their canoes about
midday. Bailey's hands bad been kept tied be- ,
hind his back front the hour he was taken, up to '
this thee. lie had suffered intensely from this
cause as well as from hunger, not having tasted
food for twenty-four hours.
IN lien the Indians got their canoes launched, they
put Bailey in ono of them, tied him by the neck to
a lino of bark drawn across the top of the canoe,
and began to cress the river.
Before their return to the Ohio, Brody, with
some scouts, had discovered their trail, and fol
lowed it to where their canoes were hitt. lie sent
one of his won to Fort Mclntosh for aseislanCe. Ho
knew that the Indiana were numerous. 'llls
knowledge of woodcraft, and the number of ca
noes, indicated to him the presence of an unusually
largo party. A Captain Erwin (If we mistake not
the name) was despatched with about forty men.

on the northern bank, and quietly awaited the re
turn of the Indians. The order was not to shoot
until the Indians rams close Into the shore, when a
most deadly fire could be poured in upon them.
The Indiana had got about two-thirds way across
the river when a white wan, contrary to orders,
fired. The others were thus compelled to fire. This
fire drove the Indians from their boats Into the
river. The Indian who had charge of Bailey
sprang out of the canoe, and left hie prisoner ex
posed to the fire of the whites. Bailey supposed
the Indian was wounded, from the fact that he
used but one arm in swimming. The prisoner him
self, whilst endeavoring to disengage his person
from the canoe, sunk It, and being tied to it by the
neck, was in the greatest danger of drowning. lie
courageously kept his head above the water, and
cried lustily for assistance.
Brady hoard his cries, threw down his rifle,
plunged into the river with a knife between
his teeth, and cut him loose. Bailey was a. good
swimmer, and soon reached the shore.
The Indians lost all the plunder they had taken,
their canoes, and, in most instanced, their guns.
There were a number of them killed, and it is sup
posed that most of them were wounded. As soon
as they were attacked, their leader Balled to them
in a loud tone to disperse. Accordingly, those who
succeeded in reaching the opposite shore and were,
able to travel scattered in all directions.
This partial victory might have turned into a
complete triumph, bad it not been for the impru
dence of the soldier who disobeyed orders. He
deserved to have been most signally punished.
There is little doubt the frontiersman trusted him
with that contempt and acorn which is worse than.
physical punishment to a mind not perfectlycallctis
to the higher and better sentiments of hamar) nature.

since these troubles occurred, he has abandoned
all business, and has become wholly absorbed by
the subject of slavery. He had property left him
by his father, and of which I had the agency. Be

The tumuli meeting of the American Bible So
ciety, on Sunday last, at the churchof Dr. Adams,
on Madison Square, was enlivened by the presence
of one speakir, who from the jollity of his poetry
and the Iteenneas of his satire, would scarcely be
looked for among the platform men of a Bible so.
cleay anniversary. Yet a Madison Square thumb,
after all, was not an illegitimate locality for the
display of his oratory. I allude to Mr. William
Allen Butler, the author of the famous
" Miss Flora Mel : limier, of Madmen eviare"
who
" Made three separate journeys to Paris,"
in search of a variety of dry-goods and fancy &M
-elee, mole as do not usually appear in the invoices
sold by Bible and Tract societies. Mr. Butter,
however, in spite of his fan and satire, is a high
toned Chnstian gentleman, and, as every true:gen
tleman does, looks upon the Bible u the book of
booki. As a specimen (poorly reported, I think)
of Mr. Butler's oratorical style, I seggregate the
ensuing sentences : Be remarked that the ehlef
object of these meetings was to recall them from
thoughts of the world to the thought of the word
of God. The distribution of the Bible was not
only a religions duty, but a socTil necessity. The
Bible was not only a book of reformation, bat of
prevention. lie regarded it in the fret element to
a true social conservatism. The people were be
ginning to think more of security than liberty,
which feeling was being strengthened at each funs
that a new fraud was found out or additional taxes
levied. This feeling was being strengthened u
they approached the eve of a municipal election.
They did not want to see, and to asy it, but as
Shakspeare said in King Lear, "A man can see the
world without eyes." It would be wrong for them
to allow emigratlen to become invasion of foriign
vices In thiscity, with the ercePtion of two or three
large cities of Germany, more Germans would sleep
that night than in any other city. If the Ame
rican eystem was to be applied anywhere, they
ought to have it applied to the home virtues Ent.
A conservative element was wanted in their litera
ture, something of home and some of the primeval
freshness of the forest. The speaker delivered
some finely-clothed but effective rebukes to the
present methods in vogue among the city clergY,
the press, the fashions, An. But for all these evils
in the social system he said there was a cure; the
remedy was not hopeless. The cure could be ef
fected by the Bible. To prevent these evils and
poison their ionic with patience, the Bible wu es
sential The plea of himself and the society that
night was for the Bible in itself. It was a book
which adapted itself to all religions, and aocom
modated itself to no one man's opinion Every
body might make a cure for the parts which ap
plied against himself; but the Bible, without notes
or comment, could be in every band. The Bible
by itself was a divine power. Let the Bible be
distributed by itself with the gift of its own power,
and everlasting happiness would result.

Lola Montez on America.
To the Editor of the Nev Fork Herald.;
My friends inform me that I have been itemised
of abusing America and the Americans in my lec
tures in England. and I beg the favor of a little
space in your paper to contradict a statement so
unjust and so contrary to my well-known feelings
and sentiments. lam a naturalized citizen of this"
country, and, after having seen something of al
most every nation on earth, I have preferred this
to all others for my home. I did not see the reports
of my English lectures which were published in
this country ; but If they made me abuse America
ti. were either imperfectly reported or unfairly
reprinted. So far from abusing America, I de
fended this country from the assaults and misrepre-
SentatiOnS of a portion of her own pre's. My lec
tures in England were listened to (I Imo's, with ap
pram]) by a great number of American gentlemen
of the highest character for intelligence and re
spectability in Manchester, Liverpool. and Lon
don. I recall the fact with pride and pleasure that
so many Americana did me the honor to call upon
me and personally express their gratification.
I meant my lee:urea to be fair and truth
ful portraitures of this country, without the
silly twaddle of adulation on the one hand or of
misrepresentations on the other. And. purely, we
may speak of faults in those we best love without
incurring the charge of abusing them. I did not
cnnuait the useless folly of saying that America
had no faults; bat I did say, in these very words,
th a t, " take it all ln.all, there is no other spot on
earth where man is making such giant strides to
eh ilization and perfection as in America. - '
And such was the spirit of all that I said of Ameri
ca. til the leaturea I delivered in England wilt
soon be published in a book, and they will show for
themselves my sincere admiration for the institu
tions of this country. When I say that my lectures
were listened to with approval by Americans in Eng
land, I ought perhaps to except the one on " Slavery
in the United States," which I understand gave
offence to some very worthy gentlemen, who, I sup
pose, had certain philanthropic views which render
ed it quite impossible that they should approve of
the opinion of an impartial and unbiased observer
who cares nothing for the partisanship er preju
dices of either side. At any rate, the dark events
which I predicted are already beginning to appear,
and I am, even thus soon, acquitted of the charge
which was brought against my lecture, of abusing
America, by saying that it PILS threatened with
civil war and anarchy. For what I said on this
subject I was guided by the light of history and by
my own observations—for I have seen more than
ono terrible revolution where the lulitieal elements
were far loss agitated and lets exasperated than
they have been for more than two years in this
country. /could only judge from appearance, of
what is to come, from what I have seen. I may
have been mistaken, but let me not bo accused of
intentionally abusing the country of my voluntary
adoption. Believe me to remain, sir, vonr obedi
