Nontat's ASTER ICBMIRGB WITH A PAINTER
Messrs. Appleton, New York, have jasf pithltehed
one of the most attractive volumes of the season=
:oval In subjeot pad to Illtaftrationa. Ito author
h the Nev. Louis L. Noble, of Hudson, N. J., au
thor of en exeelleot Life of Thomas Cole, the
painter. The book is called " Alter Icebergs with
a Painter : a Bummer Voyage to Labrador and
/Irma Searfoußdiand." It is a handsome I2eao
volume of 526 pages, in bold and clear type, with
good paper, half a dozen tinted lithographs, each
illestrativei l eCthe main subject, admirably exe
cuted hy.Barony.: In the summer of 1859. &mom
'hial' by 'a Astingutrhed 'landscape painter, the
Authormade a voyage along the northeaetern'ooset
of British; forthe purpose of Andy lag and
sketching Webs*. The original intention.was to
ears 7 out this design in the neighborhood•of at
oba's,Newfoundland, but the game (we mean the
oebergs) was defioient in numbers, too mattered,
and too diatant to be minutely examined from
land. Bo the toutiusbt went in a entail vessel to
Labrador, and found abundance of icebergs near
Battle Island, with fall facilities for sketching
Ahem. They returned " through the Gulf of est.
Lawrence, coasting the west of Newfoundland and
the shores of Cape Breton, and concluding with a
ride anions' the idand, and through Nova i ßootie to
the Bay of Fundy." The whole time occupied,
from leaving New York to leaving .13t. John's,
Now .Brunswick, for Portland, was abort, viz :
from June 17 to July 28, 1852—only forty•ono days
in allLbut as much was seen as has not only made
bts most entertaining and instructive volume, but
to give author and artist food for remembrance for
the rest of their lives. Truly, Mr. Noble sad his
friend are much to be envied for postorring leisure,
mans, spirit, tubs, paraavaranoo, and ability, (of
pen and pencil,) to take auk a voyage and prodnoe
out of it each a volume es this. A thoroughly
readable, sensible, entertaining book it is, at ones
inetruotive and genial. With great temptations to
Indulge in rebut is Ballad "fine writing," Mr. No.
hie has restated them all, and the straight-forward
narrative whloh be gives, so plain and yet HO ford-
ble, is as fascinating as one of Cooper's best sea ro•
mangos. bin Noble paints sonny with words, es
an artist would with colors, and the result is a sin
.gularly attractive volume. The illustration are
worthy of the teit, which le saying a great deal.

MEN MI OF BISHOP Buira.—ln a 12mo TO
hate of 223 pages, handsomely printed in old
fashioned type, and published by D. &J. Badlier
& CO., New York, we hare a meet interesting vo
hum by the Right Reverend Dr. J. R. Bayley,
Catholio Bishop of Newark. It contains Memoirs
of Dr. Brute, first Bishop of Vincennes, Indiana,
to which are added Retches, describing hisßeool
'cottons of Scenes connected with the Frenoh Re
volution, with °strode from his Journal. Bishop
Brute was born at Rennes, in France, in 1779, in
which city he received his eduoatioe, end where
be remained with his mother until „1.798—ti period
ineluding the Reign of Terror. A student in
medicine, he went to Patis in 1799, where ho con-
tinued two years at the medical school there, and
graduated in 1803, with the highest honors. Boon
he abandoned the medical for the clerical probes-
don, and wan ordained priest, at Fuji, early
in 1808. Devoting himself to a foreign mis
sion, Mr. Brute reached Baltimore in August,.
1810, and after being shifted about Maryland,
settled down at Mt. St. Mary's College, .Emmette
burgb, until 1816, when he revisited Prance, re
turning the same year, when he was appointed
President of St. Mary's College, Baltimore. In
1818, be returned to Emmettebtergh, returned to
Prates in 1824, on his mother's death, and, in
1834, the town of Vlnaeines, in Indiana, having.
beenereated - into a Bishopric, having jurisilictien
of the Stere - of'Dfillaneanti - of Minila,Jsriea
created first - Bishop• lie visited Europe to obtain
means for finishing a Cathedral which ho had cow
meaced, and was able, on his return, to establish a
Diocesan College Seminary, and Orphan Asylum,
and a free gelicol in Vincennes. His health
failed under bie labors, for be wee at once Biebop,
Pastor of the Congregation, Professor of Theology
fur Lie Seminary, and a teacher for one of his
Academies. Besides, he corresponded twice a
month with every priest in his diocese, and re
peatedly vieited every place where there wad a
church. He died in the summer of 1839, as deeply
regretted, it is said, by his Protestant neighbsre
'as by his Catholic congregations. The part of
Bishop Bayley's volume, which will intern
general readers is that, occupying two•thirds of
the whole, containing Bishop Brute's Recolleotions
of the Perseoution in France in 1793, and the fol
lowing year& This is judioiously annotated, and
contains numerous interesting details, of whioh
the historians of the Frenoh Revolution may ad-
vantageously make use. Scattered through the
*volume are fao-simile engravings upon wood of
drawings made by Bishop Brute to illustrato his
torical events which have long since passed away.
The volume is extremely interesting in all
respects.

DIIYOKINCEE'S LIFE OF BIBEIOP LAT/KER.-it was
fitting that Hugh Latimer, one of the Oxford Mar
tyrs, should have a good biographer. Mr. George
L. Dayakinok, of New York, whose Liven 'of
George Herbert and Bishop Kerr have bad exten
sive circulation, which they fully merit, has writ
ten a biography of Hugh Latimer, which is pub
lished by the Sunday School of St. Junes' Church,
New London, Connecticut; and is to be obtained,
of course, at all bookstores where religious or seri
ous works are sold. As the volume is not large
(pp. 2011, small 12m0,,) its price cannot be
Considering how scanty are the materials for this
biography, Mr. Duyokinok has done wondere, - in
giving so much, and each accurate information re
quiting the Bishop. Ho has given Latimer's his
tory, as far as possible, in Latimer's own words,
and the closing scenes of his life are taken from
Fox's acoount—wisely, too, for Fox, albeit in
tolerant, credulous, and exaggerative to a de
gree, has written of the burning of Loftier,
Ridley, and Cranmer, in that subdued and
earnest manner which indicates the plain
truth and good faith of the narrator. A long
cavalcade of eminent persons pus before us, 111111
pro:minion, in these pages. Henry the Eighth and
Edward the Sixth, " Bloody " Mary and her
younger and more illustrious sister Elisabeth,
Lady Jane Grey, Catherine of Arrogan , and
Anna Boleyn, Cardinal Wolsey and Archbishop '
Oranmer, Sir Thomas More and Bishop Gardner,
Bishop Fisher and Dr. Batts, the Protector Smiler
-
Set and Lady Suffolk—all of there are mentioned
in thin biography, which we earnestly recommend
as containing much information in a limited space.
Mr. Duyokinek, it should be added, writes in a
calm and temperate mood; not as an intolerant
partisan, but as one anilt4ll to rebate the plain
truth.
Miss Yortaa's Now Novara.—" The Heir of Red
olyffe," has been as much read, we dare say, as
most novels of the present day. Its author, Miss
Tonga, has lately given another work to the pub•
lie, which the Appleton., of New York, have
brought out, in an octavo volume. It is entitled,
"Hopes and Fears; or Scenes from the Life of a
Splatter," and relates not only the adventures of
the Old Maid but of a boy and girl whom she has
adopted, and sundry of their young friends. There
are a great many marriages in this story, and the
events relating thereto occur in what may be call
ed " the Upper Tendom" of the Middle Classes in
England. Honors, the Spinster, has the great
fault of being too good to be natural—just as Lu
oils, her adopted, is a trifle too capricious to bo
tolerated. We have a great antipathy to such pat
tern women as Miss Edgeworth loved to draw—but
Moneta is of this class. Nevertheleu, Reties and
Fears" has not a dull chapter—soareely a dull
page. _ _
MAYOR HICNRY'S THIRD ANNUAL MRSILIOR
This message, with accompanying documents,
bears date January 31, 1861, and forme an octavo
volume of 254 pages. Ae a record of the position
and prospects of the government, finances, and im
provements of Philadelphia, it is worthy of pre
servation. The Mayor remarks (page 13) " The
entire exemption of the property of otinrohes and
charitable corporations from the payment of Vilma
does not appear to be equitable or expedient, and
gives sound reasons in support of this position.

Some Mann, (born 1796, died 1859,) was one of
TWO CENTS.
the moat remarkable and useful men of his time.
Nearly - self T edaested, and therefore self-'reliant,
he entered the profession of the laiv, - and speedily
was .eleoted:-to the State Legislature of Massa•
ehusetts, where he . soon took a stand in favor of
religious liberty. He also made the earliest
speech, in any American Legislature, in behalf of
railroads He subsequently became a resident in
Boston; and wan Coated by that city to the State
Senate: In 1838. and 183 T, be *was president of
that body. During eleven years from the organi
zation of the Massachusetts Board of -Education,
eintielB37, Mr. Mann aided as its eeoretary, con
centrating his mind during all that time, solely
'upon the great subject of education, and effecting
great - and beneficial changes in the school system
of his native State. His Report of his eduoational
tour through Europe in 1013 bad an IMMentie
°elation,' abroad as well an here. and deservee the
notice it obtained. InlB4B, Mr. Mann was elected
to Congress as successor to John Quincy Adams,
in the House of Representatives, and resigned his
eonneetion .with :the •Educatiortal. Hafted. Re.
elected the. same jeer, by 11,000 - out of 13,000
votes, he was again returned to Congress InlBso. '
In September, 1852,-he was elected president of
Antioch College, Ohio, then newly established, and
acted `in this capacity until his death. As presi
dent of the College, he 'shared, with other mem
bers of the Faculty, the priillege of preaching to
the students. Twelve of his sermons have just
been collected and published by Ticknor it Fields,
Boston, and, eonsidering that they did not receive
their author's revision, and that, in delivery, they
were extended by extemporaneous additions, we
think that' these Lay-Sermons are better worth
perusal and study, than nine-tenths of the Dis
courses which are put into print, "by request,"
which too 'often means the preacher's desire for
display_ These '
sermons are sensible, practical,
and religions, and especially adapted for young
people.

Vice President Stephens at Richmond.
Oa Monday night a large number of citizens of
Richmond, Virginia, congregated in front of the
Exchange Hotel, in that city, with the First Regi
ment band, and serenaded the Hon. Alexander H.
Stephens, Vice Preeldeut of the Confederate States
of America. The Dispatch has the following
sketch of hie speech : . • •ii ;
The distuegutehed gentleman was introduced to
the throng by -Mayor Mayo, anti received with
hearty Cheerer. In respontla, Mr. Stephanie return
ed his acknowledgments tor the warmth of the per
sonal greeting, and his most profound thanks for it
as the representative of the Confederate States.
He spoke of the rejoicing the eecession of Virginia
had awned among her Southern sisters. Her um!
pie would feel justified if they could hear it as be
had. lie would not speak of the States that were
out, but those which were in. North' Carolina was
out, and did not know exactly how she got out.
The fires that were blazing here he had seen all
along hie track from Montgomery to Richmond.
At Wilmington, North Carolina, he had counted;
on one street, twenty flags of the Confederate
States.
The news from Tennessee was equally cheering—
there the mountains were OD fire. Some of the
States still hesitated, but liana all would be In.
Tennessee was no longer in the late Union. She
was out by resolutions of her proper assemblies in
Memphis and other cities Kentucky would soon
be out ; her people were moving. Missouri—who
could doubt the stand she would take, when her
Governor, in reply to Lincoln's insolent proclama
tion, had said, - You shall have no troops for the
furtherance of your illegal, unchristian, and dia
bolical schemes 1" Missouri will soon add another
star to the Southern galaxy. Where Maryland is
you all know. 'The first Southern blood bad been
shed on her soil, and Virginia would never stand
idly by and see her citizens shot down. The cause
of Baltimore was the cause of the whole South
He said the cause we were engaged in was that
which attashed people to the Constitution of the
late United States—it was the cause of civil, reli
gions, and conetitutional liberty. Many of us
looked at that Constitution as the anohor of safety.
In Georgia the people had been attached to the
previous Union, but the Constitution which
governed it woe framed by t.outhern talent and
understanding. Assaults bad been made on it
ever since it was established. Lately'a latitudi
noes construction had been made by the North,
while we of the South sought to interpret it as it
waa—advoeating • strict construction, State rights,
the rights of the people to rule, etc. He spoke of
all the fifteen Southern States as advocating this;
construotion. To violate the principles of the Con
stitution was to initiate revolution—and the North
ern States had done this.
The Constitution framed at Montgomery dis
carded the otteelete ideas of the old Constitution,
but had preserved its better portion, with some
modifioations, suggested by the experience of the
past, and it hid been adopted by the Confede
rated States, who would stand to it. The old Con
saltation had been made an engine to crush out
liberty; 'that of the 'Confederated States to pre.
serve it. The old Conetitution was improved in
our bands, and those living under it had, like the
Peconix, risen from - the ashes. The revolution
lately bep_un did not a ff ect alone property. but
liberty. • Re alluded to Lincoln's Gad for 75,009
volunteers, and said he could find no authority in' ,
the old Constitution for such a flagrant abnoe of
power. 'llls aettand proclamation had stigmatized
at pirates all who sailed. in lettere of marque;
this was also in violation of the Constitntioa,
which alone gave Congress that power.
What had' the friends of liberty to hope for?
Beginning in usurpation, where would he end?
Yon were, however, said he, no longer under 'the
tele 6f this tyrant.• • With'strang arms and stout
-bends you have now `resolved to stand in defence
...of liberty, The Confederated Stetes had bat as
serted 'their rights. • They believed that their
rulers derived their just powers from the consent
of the governed. No one bed a right to deny the
existence of the sovereign right of secession. Oar
people did net want to meddle with the Northern
titatelit-'-only wanted the latter to let , them alone, •
When did Virginia ever , ask the assistance of the
Genieral Government?
If there ie sin in our Instikutiozie, we bear the
blame—and will stand acquitted by natural law
and the higher law of the Creator. We aud
upon the law of God and Nature. The Southern
Suttee did not wish a resort to arms after seces
sion. _Mr_ Stephens alluded to the negotiations
between •Major Anderson and the authorities of
the Confederate States to demonstrate the proposi
tion. 'History, he said, if rightly written,
would acquit ne of a desire to shed our brothers'
blood..
The law of necessity and of right compelled us

The Regimentals of the Rome Guard.
[For The Prete.)
Pardon me if I ask your opinion on the a Home
Guard" question. Should the city of Philadelphia
or the members of the " Home Guard" pay" thong
$2O for regimentals ?" Protection t, life and pro
perty is the end to be obtained. My neighbor
(may be) has property worth one hundred thou
sand dollars, bathe is old and feeble and his family
are all ladles, He cannot serve in the "Home
Guards," nor elsewhere. lam a young man, in
business, property one thousand or one hundred
dollars, it matters not which. In justice to my
creditors, I have not one cent to spare for uni
form, but I am willing to give my time, risk my life,
and pay wy proportional share of the mantas
levied on my estate in the form of city tax. Is it
too much for my rich neighbor to pay his pro
portional share of this expense. inasmuch as it is
only part of the service I am willing to give for -the
defence of our beans end oar home? it I know
proposed" that those who are too poor to pay for
their suite shall have them furnished by the ward.
I, for one, will not wear regimentals furnished in
any snob pauper manner. lam willing to serve, and
pay Bay full share of the exptuse too. Rat more
than this I will not do. Nor will I admit that lam
either a 4 ' traitor or coward," although you—The
Press—say this morning that every man who is
not drilling must be either the one or the other.
