Peterson has published the translation of
Dumas' stories hitherto not given in Enirt
is called " The Twin Lieutenants ; or, rril
is \
dier's Bride," and is a military wee), a
good deal of Napoleon's wars in German
F ussia, but scarcely any personal inci i
,
Napoleon and his attendant satellites are ili
with force and fidelity. Mira higher inlin t
is " Andric de Teverney," also by Dumas,
eluding the "Memoirs of a Physician" en
three continuations, the famous Cagliostro fig
in all. •
Of that handsome publication, the Hoes
Edition of, the works of C .. arks Dickens, Masi
by Darley•and Gilbert, four new volumes wil
issued immediatelyliy Sheldon & Co., New ••
Tbia new portion contains " Dombey and
printed at the Riverside Press, on laid sized pa
and very neatly bound in cloth. Darley',s ilia
Lions, engraved on Steel by F Girsoh, V. Ha
J. Duthie, and S. R. Sohoff, represent Cap
Cattle in Ambush, the first appearance of B
Cuttle feeling Florence Dombey's pulse, and
Mrs. Brown at the feet of her handsome, eon
daughter. We have so repeatedly referred to
beauty and completeness of thia edition of Diok
that we have now only to say, that its attraotie
arein no way dimi. ished in the handsel its press
spirited publishers. It can be procured from J.
Lippincott & Co:
, Tiokaor & Fields have brought out, with the
usual e!egance, a "blue and gold" volume, co:
Mining all of the poems written by that genial wi
that wise humorist, that humane philosopher, thi
unpedantic scholar, that' brilliant humorist, Di
Oliver Wendell Holmes. This , volume will find it
way into ten thousand homes, into thrice ten thr
sand hearts. It is properly illustrated with aful
length portrai. of the author—against whose more
character is recorded only one blot—namely, h
"Lending a Punchbowl;" We hold , that such •
vessel, so well desoribed by him in the ballad whio
records its history, never ought to have bsen led ,
The use of such vessels is to be filled, emptied, an
replenished. Were we to visit Boston, we shout
almost be afraid to wound Dr. Holmes', insoepti
bilities, by a'sking, after the dinner-cloth' had bee.
removed, whether that lent bowl had been re
turned. Never lend a punch-bowl or a book :.the:
are capricious in returning. Probatum. est !
•The above Holmes' Poems, and also " Sketeliim
from Nature," are beautifully printed by Welsh

but their chef d'teuvre is a new edition of D
Tocqueville's famourDemocracy in America, coral
plete in two volumes, Bvo Few books, in thil
country or abroad, are so well printed, wig.papen
and binding en suite. Is is edited by Frame . ]
Francis Bowen, of Harvard, who, taking thc
English translation (by Henry Reeves) as the basis
has revised and largely
.rewritten it, with the ad
ditione. made to the recent Paris edition now firs
translated. For the first time, we !laic+ an English
rendition of De Tocqueville whiCh does him justice.
To the "Democracy in America" are here ap
pended De Tocqueville's " Demoorady in Switzer
land," a. report made to the Academy of the
Moral and Political Sciences in 1847; his Speech in
the Chamber of Deputies, a month before the•
French Revolution -of 1848, and a sketeh of his'
life. For a fuller account the reader is referred ti;
the Memoirs, Letters, and Remains of De Teague
rifle, in two volumes, pUblished some months ago'
by Ticknor 41t Fields. The new edition. of "De
mocracy in America," which may be procured:,
from George W. Childs, 628 Chestnut street, isf .
published by Sever it Francis, -Cambridge, ap- •
parently a new house. If so, it - has commenced
well.-

Another elegant Boston publication, alight in
site but neatly printed and illustrated, is J-. 4.
Tilton's fac;sinille reprint Of Thomas kciwbothaata
"Sketching from Nature." It is a improve,.
American, from the thirty-third Eagliiiii &title('

It is possible that Lee, finding himself sorely in need

skn'led in the council as &reason why a campaign from

In the presence of a large assemblage, in the court room,
rolled tickets containing the names of all the able bodied
men. in each township, between the ages of 21 and elf.,
were placed in separate packages. The townships wore
then-railed in alphabetical order, the tickets for each
placed in the wheel, and the allotted number empire by a
small led—Jack Ogle—who was blinidolded. Oaring
the drawings a hushed Artiness pervaded the
room, and as each township was disposed of,
those who Moped rushed forth as mikes:it's' as
boys just released from a school•room. As has
been the case everywhere else, the luck appeared to
s•ron in streaks." Some little neighborhoods escaped

men• with largo families orew the unlucky billet,. whde
their near neighbors, perhaps sinsle men. or men with a
house full 01 hardy eons, all fit for soldiers, entirely es
caped. again, two or three brothers would be drawn out
of thesame family. One friend of Imre, with three SODS
in the MOM bad bib fourth and only remaining one

sisters were drawn'; and yet another where a men was
drawn who was forti.fire years old the day preteding the

drawn into any party strife. Neither will I: ever assent
to any, adjustment of the contest with the insurgent
States which - shall acknowledge their encomia-
The rebellion began in fraud, dishonor, and violence,
and must fond , in entmiseion to the Conetitntion and

In my sphere of. duty m 7 intention is to carry on the
War without either 'violence to the

the priechilts of Inatice and humanity, and to con
tend to the last to avert n.triumph over all that instable
in Eovernment, or honorable to political companionship.
Id, whole comae through life ha. proved: my devotion
to Democracy and conservative principles. No assurance
should be needtd that thic faith Is unchanged. But at a

I have received you invitation, and ace.pt it.
JOHN A. AN DEE V,
Governor of fd.....eactr.ootte
The meeting wee one which, whetaer as citizens or as
reasistretee, we had a tight to held. And in the die.
chars e of our duties, many of which, connected with the
ridlltary service of the United States, (whose th) VA 7 n meat
reli, a wholly on the tititee for the ratting and recruiting
of the armed are difficult and complicated, it le ems
to perceive how mutual o'nsultation might be ad.
vantegeons. It is even more easy to eve how ne.
feral it wee for the Governors of Ohio. Virginia, and
Pennsyvania, at the time this invitation wee ie.
seed, to feel the grave importance to their
own States of lively anti efficient euppert
from every quarter to the National cause. ti , *
do I suppose that any person has even dotretel the
propriety of the conduct of the 4everuor of Meeeschn
setter in joining that consultation of Governors, except the
very persons who were swift to observe and exclaim that
hie na me did not appear with the names of many other Go
vernors en a certain petition to the President last July.
And had not the President's prochstr alien of 'reedom
ap
pearen as it did, just one day before the meeting sadly
dieapeointiug certain gentlemen. who had rightly de
°limbo tt a great merit and public duty to stand by the
President, and bad the Altoona Oonfetreuce been held and
' Ire edrrees published without my name or presence. I
have no manner of doubt that I should have felt the heat
of their burning inaignation at my slowness to unite
with the conservative- Governors who summoned us
to Altoona, in helping to strengthen the arm of the
President, at d to increase his disposable force. At
it was, tboee gentlemen were disturbed. They were cut
oft from making war on the President by their own re
cent avowals and declaration?. But it was desirable
that somebody ebotild be shaped. I was the Republican
candidate for reelection; I was a supporter of the
' President's proclamation and policy; wag the COO..
ver itlit scapegoat, and en they took use. I belies...Nage
Parker indicted me before his convention, for causing
the President's proclamation, by going to Altoona the
day after it was princes. Arid I presume that dr Sal
towel] introduced the supposed proof that I imagined
the removal of General McClellan, as evidence in sup
port of Jocge Parker's Indictment. For since Judge
Parker seems to have reversed toe order of cause and
effect in the mating of hie allegation, I can see no way
of supporting it save by a Mealier muddle of logio and
the confnefon of bulb with its °pp' tete.
And now, my dear str, the sober truth is Erimpty this :
let. I read the President's proclamation in print on the
horning of the 23d, with al much sui prise as Judge.
