EPP A HISTORY OF Roux, from the earliest times to the establishment of the Empire. With Chap. tore on. the History of Literature and Art. 'By Henry G. Liddell, D.D., Dean of Christ Church, Oxford. Illustrated by numerous wood cuts; 12m0., pp. 768. New York : Ear- per .3 , Brothers. 1867. Our readers may remember that in our notice of. Dr. Smith's condensation of Gibbon, we inti mated our great satisfaction in knowing that the Messrs. Harper had this important history in the press. When we reviewed Dr. Smith's History of Greece, we spoke of it in as favorable terms as we could, without appearing to be unduly lauda tory. We expressed a similar judgment relative to the condensation of Gibbon ; and now in the work before us we have a series completed, which, as valuable Text-books, have no equals in the English language. We know that this notice will be read by many who are at the head of Classi cal Academies, and, who are engaged as Tutors and Professors in the Classical departments of Colleges., We believe that we are displaying a kindness to all such brethren, by directing their attention to this series, and by requesting them to order a copy for their own examination. If this be done, we have no fears but that they will be adopted as Text-books. If teachers were to consider that Smith's Greece contains a conden sation of the history, literature, social condition, philosophy, and antiquities of the Greeks, as por trayed in Grote's twelve elaborate volumes, with much valuable matter added ; that all Gibbon's facts are incorporated in the abridgment, and that .110 W in this,work of Dr. Liddell, the talent and research of one of the most, profound and critical of Oxford's scalars has been devoted to the volume on _Rome; they would perceive that these works must possess no ordinary merit. In fact they carry the student down from the myth ical period of Grecian literature, through all the romantic and stirring scenes of the East, until the sceptre passed into the hands of Rome. The thread of history is then followed to the rise of the Empire, and finally in the story of Gibbon, the reader is conducted to the time when he sees that power falling asunder, and the rise of the modern nations appearing out of its ruins. We commend these volumes very heartily to the pub lic. ---- MARRIED On S.INGLE. By NM. Sedgenia. In two volumes, 12mo. This is the title of a novel just issued from the press of the Harpers.

Nevertheless, in a few days he did see him ; but Oh, how changed from the James he was wont to greet. Wasted by an acute disease, that had rapidly and fearfully done its work, he was dying, and he was wild with. de lirium. The skill of the physician could not save him; the tears of friends, even of that lov ing and loved sister Mary, were of no avail. Hie pastor spoke to him of the Saviour, but it was too late. With mind all darkened, he went from time into eternity. And where did he go ? Alas, theTe is no reason to suppose that, "having washed his robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb," he joined the general assembly and Ohureh of the first-born, whose names are written in heaven. He would 17100.0 of " these things when in health,,he would none of them in early sick ness.

You may drive- out of your mind all thoughts of death, judgment, and eternity, but death, judgment, and eternity,• will find you: You must meet them face: to face. You must go into the presence of the God against whom you have sinned so much and so flagrantly—of that Saviour from whom you have-.turned with so mrch indifference.

For the Presbyterian Banner and Advocate Things Seen in a Recent Ramble. [CONCLUDED.] I saw enough in my rambles in Pitts burgh, to favorably impress me, not only with the general intelligence and enterprise of its citizens, but of the great physical and acquired advantages of the place itself, touching commerce and manufactures. Let lazy idlers say what they will about the love liness of city lawns and forest trees; of sing ing birds and air-cooling jets-d' eau; of Chest nut Street elegance; of Broadway magnifi cence, or of the royal grandeur of suburban residences; but still, the real beauty of a city is in its enterprise, industry, and mor ality. To my eye, there is a kind of beauty in the dense clouds of smoke that rise to heaven from the numerous furnaces of this , city, and a kind of music is heard by my ear in the ring of the thousands of hammers that pound away from morning till night in • the many workshops here, so -pleasing that I do not regret that -I lack the sense to dis cover attractions in the, tinsel glitter and mock comforts - of retired fortune, Which one of note has so fitly deseribed,• as soon be coming, So sweetly mawkish, and so smoothly dull," to the, mind and eye of the possessor, as to lose every element of interest and beauty to him. Pittsburgh is certainly, if not the Man chester, at least the Newcastle and Sheffield of America. And lam bold to say, that this city of Vulcan, so . much ~despised by some, is doing more this day to increase the power and advance the real interest of our nation, than scores of such cities as boast of their forests of elm trees—their palmetto groves, closely-shaven parks, or granite-paved streets. Churches are here greatin number, and some of them unsurpassed in beauty and magnificence, by those of any other city in our land. School buildings, Academies, Col leges, (commercial and literary,) Seminaries, Universities, and various Institutions of a humane, scientific and moral character, meet the eye of the observer in all parts of the city; showing, 'that if the citizens of this place do live in a cloud of smoke, they see enough to do. their duty to ignorant, fallen, and suffering humanity. With such reflections. I left, taking the morning train. for Bellair, just as it com menced moving out of the depot in Alle gheny. We had. 'a long train and a great crowd. The day was fine, and all seemed happy. The river was flushed with a recent rain, and the land along its borders' gave I evident, signs of a hundred-fold increase in the coming harvest. The mountains and little, hills seemed to praise the Lord for having crowned and clothed ' them with wreaths of the sweetest flowers, and robes of nature's richest green. The early sun poured upon the whole scene a- flood of heavenly glory; and for once, dear reader, I confess to a transient emotion arising from the inspiration of such occasions ; and had it not been for one thing, there is no know ing what Parnassean heights, and Elysian 'fields I might have visited. be that as it may, my muse took wings and fled away, as a brawny rustic, a few seats before me, pointing with , his finger through the win dow across .the river exclaimed at the top of his' voice, " Yondah, gentlemen, is old Vaginah I" A good:looking, well-dressed gentleman, who occupied a seat near me, looking out• as he heard' this, replied, with a peculiar Yankee twang, "Yes, old Virginia, the Land of Bondage." We saw at once, by his looks, that he was an "agitator," and we determined, for our own amusement, to stir him up a little. So we made free to ask him this question: " When the fanatical abolitionists dissolve this Union, what disposition do you sup pose, stranger, they will make ,of the Pan Handle ?" At this he took fire immedi ately, and went off, in a most terribly excited way, about Slavery, Kansas, and the - Con stitution—said he would tear the latter in pieces with his own fingers, if that act would abolish. Slavery I That if he only had the power, he would sunder this Union, with his own hands, into two parts, then dash the Southern section down from his hand in dis gust, and "finder into atoms." Of course, reader, this made us all laugh; and after he had gone on in this style for some time, abusing what he was pleased to call pro alaverl churches and our pro-slavery Govern ment, saying he had been to Washington City, and had done all in his power to pre vent Congress from making any further ap propriations for finishing the Capitol, or repairing or extending any other of our governmental buildings there, as the Union be dissolved, and in- that case the South would get all. He paused for a mo ment, apparently to see what effect his elo quence- was having on his astonished audi ence: 'At this juncture, one of us said: " Stranger, how is your mother ?" " Hew THE PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE. is my mother I What business have you to ask such a question ?" " Why, I was read ing about her the other day, and I have felt some interest in the old lady's welfare, ever since." " Reading about my mother! Vhen? Where?" "In 1. Kings iii: 16-28, sir; two women there claim to be the mother of one child. They agree to adjudicate the case before King Solomon. The King com mands that a sword be brought, and the child to be cut in . two, antra part given to each. She who was the •i•al mother of the child said, no. But the false claimant, (and as I think, your mother,) was as anx ious for sunderment then as her fanatical son is now. The application is easy:—please make it yourself, sir; and after this be ashamed to harbor, much less to utter, such unpatriotic sentiments as have just now escaped your lips. We all admit that the system of Slavery is wrong, but certainly it is neither the dictates of patriotism nor of prudence, to advocate so great an evil as the dissolution of this Union to abolish either the relation or the system of Slavery. We We are forbidden to, do evil, that good may come." To, this he was about to reply, when the conductor appearing, called out, "change cars here, gentlemen, for. Cleveland"—so, away went our friend Northward, and we Southward de facto. I will not weary the reader's patience in relating a debate that now sprung up among us on the merits of Calvinism, that was raised, in some way, in the course of our conversation. Suffice it to say, that after the opposition had freely admitted the omniscience of God as entire and absolute, be was silenced in the following way: Ca/vinist.--"Suppose Gabriel had existed long prior to the creation. of the world, and had got intimation that God would at some time bring a world like ours into being, could God have told him the exact number of individuals that would be on the earth from Adam down to the last man that will be born?" Arminian.—"Yes, I beliwie be could." oa/vinist•—"lf Gabriel then had taken a large slate and set this number down in figures across the top of it; and then drawn a perpendicular line down through the slate, could God have so divided this upper num ber in his own mind, as to have told Gabriel how many to set down on the right hand of the line, and how many on the left?" Arminian.—" Yes, since God knows all things he certainly could," Calvinist.--" Now since both these TEUM hers were actually in the Divine mind when the covenant of Redemption was made, how can we consistently believe that . Christ designed by his death to save both numbers alike, when he, by his omniscience, foresaw that those on the left would , not be saved; unless we can believe that God designs to do what he knows will never be done, or pur poses to do a thing and then fail in its fulfill ment?" Arminiau.—"lt seems fair; but still I can't believe it." Calvinist.—"Then , l hope you will here after be more careful as to, what you say against Calvinism, until you are more able to disprove it?" But here we came to the end of our railroad journey, as well as that of our theological discussion; bidding many of our fellow-passengers good bye, we left the, cars, mounted a home, and off we scampered.to the residence of a friend .that lives among these semi•mountains of Belmont. We rested here for many days, with great satisfaction. Our health improved rapidly, and our occular affliction gradually receded, and we will not soon forget the rich amuse ment we had . here in fishing for bass in the streams that run zig-zag among these hills, and in watching the fish-nets and fish-traps emptied of their finney contents, at our feet, upon the sand. / So it came to pass after a time, ~7e met a kind, clerical brother, riding iu a fine Iniggy, behind two spirited blacks, on his way to the meeting of d his Presbytery at M Like Philip, we joined ourself to this chariot, and our brother took us up by his side, and on we, rode together, until we, came to the above-named place. Here quite a number of ministers and elders soon convened. The bell rings and all, (with a considerable concourse of peo ple,) repair to the Presbyterian ,church, a building of no mean dimensions or finish, and most favorably situated for access, pros pect and ventilation. An excellent choir chants oue of the sacred songs of David, a sermon is preached, the Presbytery organizes and proceeds to business. The immediate purpose for which the Presbytery met, was, the installation of. Rev. Mr: Graham over this church as 'pastor, for half his time. The exercises were brif, pointed and to the purpose. Mr. G. enters this pastorate with more than ordinary encouragement. - Qne particular feature in the exercises of this Presbytery, seemed to us 'unique, and pleasedius much. It is , that of calling upon their Commissioners to the .Assembly for a carefully prepared and minute description of their journey to and from the place where that body meets, as well as a resume of all that is done during its various sittings. This was done in a most masterly and highly instructive manner, at this meeting, by Rev. Mr. Boyd, of Bridgeport, and a remarkably sensible but eccentric Elder, whose name I have somehow forgotten. The most intense interest was manifested by the whole congregation in these Reports; and although they must have occupied near ly two hours in their delivery, yet all seemed sorry when they ended. The opening ser mon of the Assembly, by Dr. Hoge, was noticed, and a profile : given of its , venerable author. The same was done of the sermons of Drs. Plumer, Thornweli, and Howard. Aud the contrast drawn between the first two, was as eloquent as it was just, and deft us all unable which to love and admire most, but ready to pray that both may long be spared to shine as lights in the world;and stand as towers of strength in the Zion of God. But, when the peculiar manner, and giant mind of Dr. Breekinridge came in for a notice, then the whole graphic powers of Mr. Boyd were brought to, bear, and so interested were the people in hearing accu rate descriptions of these men, of whom they had read so much, that many of them actually leaned forward to catch every word as it fell from the speaker's mouth. The debate on the recent doings, of the American Bible Society was analized, and the animus of the Assembly given. Mr. Boyd had mingled much among, the blacks, and al though he by no means approved of slavery, yet, he candidly believed that many of the reports we had of the wretched condition of the slaves, in . Kentucky, were gross exag gerations. In conclusion, Mr. Boyd, said he was thankful to God that he had membership in so noble, wise, conservative and Christian a Body as the Old School Presbyterian church. His remarks left a most salutary, impression on all present, and made us all more and more resolve to labor to enlarge the borders, and seek the welfare of the much-persecut ed, but still as much-loved Church of our fathers. May the ark, of the covenant, with the presence of Jehovah, ever be with us. From this place I returned home; and am this day well and happy, and thankful for the tender mercies of my God toward me. Should'my life be spared, I hope to take a ramble to New Orleans, and return home via Cuba, and the Atlantic cities, next Summer, and if the reader wishes he may go with me. Till then, sc7ed bye. ZEn. fax t4e YAito. From the American Messenger "Her Hand Held the Cup to My Lips." "My first glass," said Mr. B—, " was presented by the hand of a Christian lady, whose piety none could doubt, and whose womanly excellences won the regard of all who knew her. It was her hand that held the cup of poison to my lips—her sweet, gentle voice that in blandest tones urged its acceptance." The father of Mr. B— was a man of piety, and intelligence, who trained his children to, the abhorrence of vice in every form, intemperance perhaps more than any other. When this son left home for college, among the letters of introduction furnished him by his friends, was one to a lady residing in the vicinity of his college' home. This lady was an, early friend of his mother's, and as such he was prepared to meet her with sentiments of cordial friendship, which at each successive, interview, her real piety, amiability, and intelligence, tended largely to increase. She was just the person, above all others to exert an influence over his mind and heart. He walked from'college one warm after noon to call on her, found her even more than usually cordial and agreeable, and was greatly enjoying a pleasant, social, interview, when a servant entered with a pitcher of remarkably fine cider, temptingly iced. The coolisparkling beverage was handed round in over-flowing goblets, but the young man, trained as he had been, declined tasting the tempting cup. The lady seemed surprised, and urged his compliance, telling him she had ordered it expressly for him; that it would be so refreshing after his walk, and that it was,decidedly the finest that he hid ever tasted. Again he had the courage to decline, and this time urged his temperance principles in excuse. For these she warmly commended him, but added, " ader can not possibly hurt you ; no one was ever the less temperate for drinking cider." Then pouring out a fresh goblet, she held it to ward him with her own- hand, and pressed him to drink. Was it strange that he yielded; that what was so sweetly offered by one he so much esteemed, should have been unguard edly accepted ? Would one young man in a thousand have acted otherwise ? He took the fatal cup, and drained it of its poisonous contents. A few minutes served alike to convince him of his error, and to set his very brain on fire with the unusual stimulus. He shortened his visit, and hurriedly with drew. But it was too late; the poison had been quaffed, the, fatal appetite engendered, the barrier broken down, his self-respect gone. Almost maddened by the remem brance of what be had already done, yet thirsting for more, he entered a tavern, tailed for wine, and drank freely. Con science still more loudly reproached, but his perceptions being blunted now, he argued, "Wipe is no_worse than cider; and did not a Chriatian lady, my mother's friend, urge that? It cannot be wrong, or she surely would not have advised it to one whom she , regards as a brother or a son ?" The faith ful monitor was 'silenced, and glass after glass of the fearful poison swallowed, till at length, memory,. remorse, and burning desire were all quenched in the drunkard's sottish sleep. The tidings quickly reached the college, and were followed by suspension. This was sorely mortifying ; and driven, almost to frenzy, he turned again to what he had so recently learned to regard as .a solace from the stings of conscience. The sequel is quickly told. One step followed another, till .he was expelled from college for ":con firmed intemperance;" and then unwilling to meet the beloved parents he had so dis graced, he wandered off to a Southern city, where he spent several years in dissipation and folly. , Here female influence, which had so nearly proved his ruin, was put forth just in time to save him from the yawning gulf. He was persuaded, by the pious lady with whem he boarded, to accompany her to a temperance meeting. Still sufficiently mindful of external proprieties to be un willing to be the escort of a lady while in a condition to, cause., her to, be ashamed of him, he carefully refrained from drink, all day, and was consequently in "a condition to listen to the lecture and profit by what he heard. 'That night he signed the pledge; and though , now near fifty years of age, he has never since tasted of anything that can intoxicate: Christian feniale, beware how you hold out temptation to the young. That which you may do with impunity, to, then may be ruin; and the more highly you are esteem ed, the greater is your influence, and conse quently the greater the importance of wield ing that influence aright. niistellantous. A Curate's Crowns. The well-known French missionary, Fa ther Bridaine, was always poor, for the sim ple teason that he, gave away everything he had. One evening he asked for a night's lodging of the curate of a village through which, he passed, and the worthy man having only one bed, shared it with him. At day-break Father Bridaine rose, accord ing to custom, and went to say his prayers at a neighboring church. Returning:from this sacred duty he met a beggar, who asked alms. "Alas !my friend, I have nething," said the good priest, mechanically putting his hand into his breeches pocket, where, to his astonishment, he found something hard, wrapped up in paper, which.. he knew he had not left there. He hastily opened the paper, and seeing four crowns in it, cried out that it was a miracle. He gave the money to the beggar and hastened to the church to return thanks to God. The curate turned pale, put his hand in his pocket, and in an instant perceived that Father Bridaine, in getting up in the dark, had taken the wrong pair of breeches--he had performed a miracle with the curate's crowns. Swift and the Tailors. It is stated of Dean Swift that he preached before the merchant tailors' company at three several anniversaries. The first time he took for his text, "Steal no more." The members of the company took umbrage at this text; on the following anniversary he chose the words, "A remnant shall be saved!' His audience were more irritated than before; nevertheless, he commenced hip third sermon as follows: "There were lie - 4 in all their-binder:a." A Bowl of Bread and Milk. Well, what more of a bowl of bread and milk, than to crumb as much of the former as will suffice, and set it afloat with as much of the latter as may be desired for the meal? Can any thing more be done? Can a bowl of bread and milk be improved in preparing? I think it can; and will give my process. Instead of crumbing your bread, take that two or three days old, somewhat dry or "stale," and with a sharp knife cut it in thin slices, as you would dried beef for the tea-table. The unbroken pores of the bread thus prepared, will readily absorb the milk, though dry and hard, and you may at once commence the operation of spooning from a dish fit to feed to infant. Akin to this, is the preparation of a bowl of bread and milk with "condiments." As the season of small fruits is passing, a good substitute, and but little inferior to "Straw berries and Cream," (especially if your strawberries are not prime,) is, to cut your bread as above, then take a soft Sweet Bough, or other good sweet apple, (or, those who prefer, a mild sub•acid,) pare and cut in thin slices in the manner our mothers prepare for apple pies, and. to this compound add your milk; and ,if you do not have a palatable dish your taste differs from ours. A good, ripe, sweet apple, raw, will give to 'the milk almost the richness of new cream. Try it and see. Success in Life. You should bear constantly in mind, that nine-tenths of us are, from the very nature and necessities of the world, born to gain our own livelihood by the sweat of the brow. Whafteasons have we then to presume that our children ire not to do the same? The path upwards is steep and long. Industry, care, skill, excellence, in the present parent, lay the foundation of a rise, under more fa vorable circumstances, for tile children. The children of these take another rise, and by and bye the , descendants of the present laborer become gentlemen. This is the natural progress. It is by attempting to reach the top at a single leap, that so much misery is produced in the world. The edu cation which I recommend, consists in bring ing children up to labor with steadiness, with care, and with skill—to show them how to do as many useful things as possible —to teach them to do them all in the best manner—to set them an example of indus try, sobriety, cleanliness and 'neatness—to make all these habitual to them, so' that they never shall be liable to fall into the contrary—to let them always see a good liv ing proceeding from labor, and thus to re move from them the temptations to get at the goods of others by violent•or fraudulent means.— Wm. Cobbett. Fresh Corn the Year Round. Mr. Daniel Rowe, of Lancaster, Pa., has invented and patented a plan for providing green corn for the table the year round. He plucks green corn, and without depriv ing it of its milky juice 'or taste, keeps it in a state of freshness and preservation, ready for boiling at any season. His process is described in his claim:—" What I claim as my discovery and invention is the new art and process of preserving green corn in' the ear, by extracting the pith or heart of the cob and seasoning and drying the inside of the cob as rapidly as the outside, for preserving the virtues and juice of the grain and preventing • the collection of mould or corruption, as herein described, and for the purposes set forth." A Lan caster paper says Mr. Rowe is preparing convenient machines, not larger than those used for paring apples, by which every housekeeper can, in one evening, prepare ten or fifteen bushels of corn for his own use.—Rural New Yorker. How to Nake Tea Properly. The proper way to, make ~a cup .of good tea is a matter of some importance. The plan which I have practised for these twelve months is this :—The tea-pot is at once filled up, with boiling water; then the tea is put into the pot, and is allowed to stand for five minutes before it is used; the leaves gradu ally absorb the water, and as 'gradually sink to the bottom; the result is that the tea leaves are not scalded, as they are -when boiling water is. poured over them, and, you get all the true flavor of the tea. In truth, much less tea is required in this way than under the old and common practice.—James Cuthill. [The ladies can easily try it.—En. Improved Dlode of. Cooking Salt Pork. For the benefit of those who, like our selves, are obliged to use considerable salt pork, the following method is recommended, by which it is very much improved, especi ally for frying.
