LITERARY.—
A Hartford publishing house announces
another “History of the Great Rebelliou,” by
Thomas P. Kettell, of New York.' It will
be issued in one volume of eight hundred
pages.
Little, Brown & Cos., of Boston, have
Just issued a collection of the speeches of
John Bright.
“Nor’wester” writes from New York to
the Boston Post:
“The much mystified readers of ‘Rutledge’
may as well know that its author is Miss
Miriam Coles; tbe ‘New Gospel of Peace’
was written by Richard Grant White, who is
coming to be known as ‘Shakspeare’s Schol
ar.’ Orpheus C. Kerr (office-seeker) is
Robert H. Newell; Artemus Ward is
Charles F. Browne; Carl Benson is Charles
A. Bristed; Marion Harland is Mrs. Virginia
Terhune; Irena?us is Rev. Dr. 8. I. Prime ;
Jeems Pipes, Stephen C. Massett; Howard
Glyndon, Laura C. Reddon; Fanny Fern,
Mrs. James Parton; Doesticks, Fanny Fern’s
sou-in-iaw, is Mortimer Thomson; Jennie
June, Mrs. Jennie Croly; the Country Par
son, Rev. Dr. A. K. H. Boyd; Miles O'Reil
ly, Colonel Charles G. Halpine; K. N. Pep
per, James M. Morris; Barry Gray, Mr.
Coffin; the Lounger ot Harper’s, George W.
Curtis; Mr. Sparrowgrass, F. S. Cozzens; Ik
Marvel, Donald G. Mitchell; Occasional, of

B. P. Shillaber; Ned Buntline, E. Z. C. Jud
son; Edmund Kirk, J. R. Gilmore; Johu
Phoenix, the late Captain Derby; Oliver Op
tic is the mm de plume of a Boston school
teacher; and scores of other writers hide
themselves behind masks which their readers
would be glad to see removed. Anonyms
may do well for amateur and ephemeral
scribblers for the daily press, but men and
women who go into book-making as a busi
ness, and who write for perpetuity, ought to
let people know who they are.”
“Nor’wester” himself is Frank W. Ballard
of New York city.
Trade with the North. —Tbe resumption
of traffic upon the State railroad between At
lanta and Chattanooga; altords us an outlet
to the North much speedier than that by the
torturous and uncertain chanuel of the yel
low Savimnab. We imagine that this will
hereafter be the favorite route for passengers,
and that freights both and coming will
be forwarded by this line of communication.
It is certainly the cheapest, as it is most
pleasant and safest. Besides, it opens up to
us a market in the West, where the leading
articles consumed here can be purchased
upon the most favorable terms.— Auyusta
Constitutionalist.
—Two buildings were struck by lightning

house at the time, none of them being in
jured.

—Tfie friends of one of Ihe assaMslns exe
cuted at Washington need never feel dis

—The anniversary of Napoleon’s death,

turned rebel, shot and killed Gasper M.

containing soldiers, would sink and drown
all of them. The murder is regarded by all
citizens as an outrageous one.
—Two little boys in Portland, Conn., "got
into a boat the other day, and from some
cause or other it was cast loose and had drift

jumped into the water and were diowned.
—A thorough inspection of the grounds

school will be accommodated on shipboard.
