One knows not to what article the palm should be awarded. Professor Agassiz leads off with a paper, such as he best efin write, upon Methods of Study In Natural History. We have Nathaniel Hawthorne describing old Boston, (in England,) and his visit to it; Emerson pleasantly discoursing on Old, Ago, somewhat in the manses of G.. Coun try Parson, only with more power; George S. lld lard, sound critic as he is, discussing the merits of Cooper, tbo novelist ; Wm. Dorsheimor, of Buffalo, chronicling Fromontls la Missouri, the Rev. D. A. Wasson pleasantly writing about Light Literature ; and Prof. A. D. White, of the University of Michigan, treating of Jefferson fitc gn early, consistent, and persistent anti•elavery man. Moreover, Dr. George D. Windship, the modern Samson, auto-biographically relates by what &pining, of mind as well as of body, he educated himself into such a development of muscular power as has enabled him, a small man, weighing less than one hundred and fifty pounds, to lift a weight of 1,010 pounds, adding " I have A:sod three thou sand pounds as my we iditS ultra." Mrs. Stovia's Agnes of Sorrento, and A Story of To-day, arc con tilllAcd, Better than these—indeed, marvellously Spirited and real—is the commencement of Love and Skates, a tale by the late Theodore Winthrop, Which makes us the more deeply lament his un timely fate—though kit doial 6 battle was 4 sip rims ending for such a heroic genius. There is some poetry—the more noticeable piece being a new Biglow Paper, by Professor James Russell Lowell, consisting of a letter in verse from Birdo] fredom Sawin, Esq. Much as wo object to the fashion of that literature which caricatures, by bad spelling (Thackeray has much to answer for in this respect), we admit and admire the wit of Mr. Lowell's quaint production. On the whole, this new number of the Atlantic Monthly is very much what a S.-A-01.*0 magazine ought to bo, and we report it as having creditably passed its exami nation. Ticknor and Fields will please come up to the desk, and receive their medal of honor_ We have received copies of this magazine from Peterson & Brothers, and also from T. B. Pugh, Sixth and Chestnut.

Ticknor & Fields have published an edition of Tennyson's " In Memo riam," which is so beautiful as to be almost and a superb ono-volume edition of Sir Thomas Brown's Writings (including. the Religio Medial, and the other most famous of his grand thoughts,) will be issued, almost immediately, by the same publishers.

The loyalty. pride of ancestry, and benevolence of the Scotch are proverbial the world over, and ehttrlieterietiCS were strikingly developed. at the last (113th) anniversary of this society. They had met to pay up their yearly Subscriptions for the relief of such of their fellow-countrymen as might Pee l oll4. their all. The ennuai dinner tiad been postponed—in view of the times and of the number of their brethren upon the tented field— and an informal supper was substituted, in eller that the time-honored custom of the interchange of pleasing and appropriate sentiments upon St. An drew's Day should not be interrupted. The trea sury having been replenished, they adjourasd to the festal hall. After the customary toasts had been duly given and received, the following volunteer sentiment was offered: "The Officers of the St. Co,let w —worthy successors of an honor• ed line," and Macgregor Miteheson, Esq., one of the counsellors of the society, was called on to re spond to it That putleutau at once complied, and, after acknowledging in fitting terms the compliment thus paid to himself as being the yOungest officer in the society, paid a glawing to hate to the memory of ninny mem bers of the society whose names had figured conspicuously in the history of the nation from the moment of the signing of the Declaration of Job pendency, and even earlier in ColoniaL times, down to a period within the memory of all present. Be then concluded by expressing the hope that the officers and members of the society would prove themselves worthy of their illustrious ancestry by emulating the noble examples that they had left on record—and referred to some of the benevolent end petrietie efforts of the day that merited gene.. revs consideration. A subscription paper, prepared by the secretary ; George Young, Esq., was at once headed by David Milne, who occupied the chair, and tamed round the table from hand to hand for a special contribution by the members. A large, sum was raised by this impromptu effort; . and, on motion of Dr. Lawrence Turnbull, forty dollars was appropriated to the Volunteer Refreth ment Saloons, and a still larger amount to other equally noble uses. This incident speaks well for the generous impulses of the race, and might be re- ` membered with advantage by others.

[From the Richmond Examiner, Dec. 11.] The Congress of the Confederate States seems to be awakened to the great public necessity of Will ing an itrea; ) , of rogalarly organised and veteran troops. The large bounty which it now offers for long enlistments, and the inducements which it holds out to the twelve-months' volunteers to en gage themselves for a service of them, ‘,lll go far tOWardS procuring the material of a sub stantial and disciplined army. We fear, however, that it will be found,-before this war is ended, that all plane for raising good troop; except that prao tleod and relied on by all the military nations of the world in this and past ages, will be found to be only expensive and uncertain makeshifts. Eng land and Anglo-Saxon America, among tlAo sturdiest, hut, at alee among . the most unmilitary nations of the whole earth, alone employ the system of voluntary enlistment in the formation of their armies. All other fighting races and warlike governments have created, and now create, their armies by con scription or draft, That alone falls equally on all parts of the population ; that alone is sure to bring forth the material that AMP needs ; that alone gives the host which the Government can use as a workman his tool of steel. Whether this war will continue long enough to force the Confederate States over the prejudices of race to this simple and etresti, sure, may be doubted ; but we feel assured that be fore another year of it is ended, that Government, people and army, will have all come to the con clusion that the creation of inferior WNW?, if not of m 4- la. pieced under the absolute control of the Executive of the confederacy. In this one thing is rho radical difference between the organi zations called militia, volunteers and regulars. The Privates of the first are the hest man of the coun try; they are the worst soldiers, because their offi cers are in reality not officers at all, but the indi viduals in the whole force that are the most com pletely reprerentittives and types of those where they should, but cannot, command. Just in pro portion as the origin of the officers is independent of the men will be their power to control them ; and in the same proportion will the army organiza tion be found effective in the and discomfort of war. The Rebel General Price Not Superseded'. [From the Richmond Dispatch, Dec. 11.1 Speculation is again on foot on the subject of the rumored appointment of a general to rank Price and McCulloeh for the district of Missouri and: Arkansas. The report of the intention of the President to appoint Colonel Meth to Gat poet, as major general, &Relied a great deal of comment and feeling some days since. But the report has since quieted down, and it was stated on pretty good authority that the President baci abandoned the ide; ~r i6le appointment, if he had ever enter tained it. The rumor that Price was to be ranked by a young Confederate officer, just promoted, travelled On the wings of the wind to all parts of the West, and. judging from the papers received at this office, ...salted one universal burst of disapprobation.

Interegting from& Charleston. [From the Noir York Herald of Saturday.] HOW THE CITIZENS OF THAT CITY FEEL IN REGARD TO THE WAR—INCIDENTS OF THE TIME IN. THE "PALMETTO CITY". - - - gIIFFF.RINN ARR- i-isrvATION AMONG THE INHAIIITANTS—UNION ELEMENT IN THE VERY HEART or SECESSION—MILITARY MOVEMENTS. SC. Raving bad a Mend interview with the swim, Charles Lampert, who escaped from on board the rebel steamer Nashville, at Bermuda, he has given us some further interesting information relative to the state of matters in Charleston eity, These partieulare show somewhat clearly a tendency which most of the inhabitants of that locality have towards reversing their efforts in favor of the Union. and throwing off the yoke so fanatically cast arclin4 them by the unprincipled traitors who Are at the head of the present rebellion. The source from whence this information comes is perfectly re liable, the person furnishing the same having been a resident of Charleston for a long time, and having left there but a short time dace. A.c.oordiag to the statement of this person, it would appear that, at the North, the public mind is entirely led.astray by the supposition that in Charleston there can be found nothing but the most rapid and bloodthirsty sped. mane et SCGCSoIOII fanatics ; that the ardor of Union ism, which has so enthusiastically burst forth at the North, has not the smallest kindred spark of recipro city among the people of Charleston, and that all the noble love of free lostitutioas, republ ican ideas, and reverence for the Constitution of the United States have sunk back into the severed , hearts of rebeldom without a single thought of the magnitude accom panying the sacrifice. But this seems to ho a wrong impression formed of the feelings now agi tating' a large majority of this- community ; and though the Palmetto flag flaunts its horrid outlines in every sunbeam that glances on the housetops of Charleston, yet there is an aud-ii-r-current of en thusiastic Union sentiment softly slumbering in the bosoms of thousands, awaiting an opportunity to burst forth, in order to overthrow the black pall of SeCersienisin which koebeit down. And no wonder that this should be so. The whole city looks at present more like the Deserted Vil lage," which Goldsmith speaks of thlin that of the metropolis of a State which boasts s much of its "chivalry" and "fair women." The poorer classes of the population—that is, those who are unable to take up arms in defence of the sacalled " Confederate States " . —are in the most abject state of suffering and destitution. Common necessaries of food are put up at the most exorbitant . prices. women and children may be seen traversing the principal thoroughfares with pale and haggard couu tenance.si the very picture of despair anus poverty. Dread made of rite meal, and other articles of a similar natnre,.are the prineipal food of these poorer classes, and it is with much difficulty that they can procure the same. Coffee is seventy-five cents pse pound; s. pleas of soap which forizarly might purchase& for flair cents, now brings thirty ; nkie cents worth of eamphene now brings forty cents,. and all other articles of a like character are as dear in propertion, Added to. this, daily outrages are being perpotnatell upon innocent and unoffending citizens by lies lawless soldiery who pass through the streets.. And now these eir euinstances are beginning to open the eyes.of most of the people, and SCAM aka tech a ;foie more philosophically upon the, musses which have brought down this want and ruia upon their beads. They look kaiak with sorrowful hearts to the. days of their fornter prosperity, and silently utte4l_ a prayer that the avenging arm which threatens the tyrants of their destiny may soon descend and release them from the lethargy of oppression, That their prayer will be grante4 there seems not to be the slightest doubt, us the cannon of the Union now thunders within almost hearing distance of tho doomed city. here it was that the Ant gun of the rebellious South boomed forth its dread notes, the echo of which has been heard with such telling and revenge_ feel Met maid the Mils of the loyal North; eed it TWO GINTR., is now but just Curt the itradeat crash tr wrath from the artillery of thy Union should explode in the midst of the pollutsdistreets of this city.

The reception of the news of the occupation of llatteres by Union forces is described as king fraught with tis . 0t I.33teme exeltenient and re• giment after regiment poured into the streets of Charleston, imorder to make more secure the coast defences. The most extreme terror was mani fested by the inhabitants; but a good many of +60333, the poorer ahem in particular, secretly re joked at the Union triumph, An Irish regiment had been organized in Charles ton, and drafted down to Richmond in companies; also a Gorman artillsey , 46karyny, commanded by Capt. Wagner. There were plenty of arms in Charleston, but no place for manufacturing them, all which the vo lunteers carried being imported from England and elsewhere. A general' want seemed to be expressed for bayonets to attach to their muskets, and this was being supplied as fast as possible. There wore three companies of volunteers quar tered in Fort Sumpter, and these were ocauposed Of foreigners of various nationalitieg At the points where a view Could be had of the vessels blockading the port, knots of persons might be seen Scanning the movements of the same, and passing anything but complimentary remarks upon those agents of the Union. The rabid among them earnestly express hopes that the British, or some other Power, may come shortly euti break the wai.a. —"doh wo. detrimental to their stomachs, as well as to their backs and pockets. An affecting incident occurred at the time our informant was in Charleston, which is worthy of notice. A Union private soldier wag brou g ht prisoner to that city and confined to Castle Pinck ney, where access was stringently denied to him by any person whomsoever. The prisoner's sister hap pened to be a resident of cLuffieoton, and married to a rabid aceeseionist. Hearing that her brother was a prisoner, she earnestly sought and obtained permission to see him, when a very affecting scene took place. Tier husband, hewing game.) clue to the visit) followed Lis wife thither, and, gaining access to tae room where the interview was taking place, imme diately set upon his unfortunate spouse and mal treated her most shamefully_ The Injuring ski p - eelved, it was supposed, Would prove fatal; but the tender husband escaped that just punishment which was due to the horrid offence. Incidents of a like nature were 0111 1 / 1 011 daily, and the villain clement which was also the peculiar characteristic of large Southern cities showed itself in most glaring colors. The ruffian blow and ribald jest were the order of the night, and blood ehed, drunkenness, and disorder, etis,a4,l out the entire city. At the time the rebel steamship Nashville left Charleston, numerous vessels laden with cotton were in readiness to take their departure with her, to wdor tine bettor to run the Mamie but this intention was frustrated, and the cotton has to lie idle in the docks of Charleston. Six negrees escaped from the harbor in a small boat, with the intention of giving information to the 151.55i0ta1.. 6 fleet of the proposed a,liling of the Nashmite but it is said that they never reached their destination. Had they done so, the Nashville would+ probably have never escaped NM them who Were watching for her This. it appears, was the true condition of rinks at Charleston at the time our informant left. That there are many Union men in Charlestn i there see is to ha little doubt; and when the ball of true patriotism is once set rolling among them it will have an effect which must convert the whole city to the true rule, the only true valor whiolf , now ap pears to nerve the firnia of the Carolinians being the tearful fascination which hurries themon, led by their rabid and conscienceless rulers.

During his command of a southern post, he was induced to examine the history of slave insurrec tions, and deduced from it the conclusion that there would be a terrible., QUID the SOuthern States. althea during or imm'e'diately subsequent to the Christmas holidays. The existing circumstances attach great probability to this crelietion. In an extensive belt of country, reaching from the Atlantic cost to the )ilia; ssippi river, the sixes; I.e- s el y outnumber tile white population. This whole district has been nearly depopulated of able-bodied white ram to furnish soldiers for the rebel armies in the border States. By the organisation 9I egmo of the negroes lieregt..exce An- the rebel army, the masters have, with astounding shortsightedness, taught their slaves that with arms in their hands they are equal to white men, and by their violent denunciations of the Federal army as Abolitienists, they L o y, in fused the idea that it would aid the negroes to as sert their freedom. They have also madly given them the impression that men can fight with pikes and bowie knives that inky be made by any Qom. , -uan biachoniffh, and, above all, they have sat to example of insubordination and insurrection by their own rebellion against the Government. Un der these circumstances there is much probability in this fearful prediction. Thereed.e.., erg o re bel s may bring upon them a punishment more terrible than that about to be inflicted by the armies of the Union. THE MISSISSIPPI EXPEDITION; From Cairo—The Proepead Of a Fora ward Movement and Ifte Coming Bat— tles on the Mississippi.

To those who see nothing but what is paraded boldly before their eyes, Cairo would present at present a remarkably quiet, innocent appearance. Len soldiers stroll about the tweets than toimerly ; no expeditions take place, and no one asserts con fidentially that Columbus will be taken within two days. But, instead, an under-current of prepara tion for great events ; unseen by the multitude, is slowly dilfting,asit accidentally, together the dif ferent elements of military success. The strength of every regiment is being carefully tested, and its efficiency increased by acts slight in theffilletrea, not apparent to bpi Luring a • volume of meaning. Regimental drills are oven more thorough than formeily. and General Grant is determined that his troops shall do credit to the country and the departmcgt which they are fa this ~u d.e."-or he is nobly seconded by the different colonels, and the soldiers now here will be second . to none when an active campaign commences. That moment, so long earnestly wished for and so open , prophesied. cannot be lon g .11.; qut i yet i n w h at direction the armies will more, where the blow will be struck, is as deep a mystery as ever. It may be at Columbus. or perhaps that point avoided at firm the Communication eat off l.;* cocupying points below and less strong, while the fleet with its formidable guns, the batteries with their im mense mortars, shot and shell the place at their leisure, reducing it as they would a fort, and mak ing the whole country around there too hot to be inhabited.
