LITEUAKY NOTICES. r
A word to the reader. Hard work, long
continued, had well nigh broken us down.
To escape mosquitoes, trie monotony of daily
drudgery, and the routine ot city life, we be
took us to the country. Among the vast
plantations of Alabama, in the homes of the
great planters —unparalleled for hospitality
—we forgot awhile the cares of the cloister,
and the companionship of our beloved books.
We can testify that it does one good, after
the long silence of thought—the isolation of,
student life—to take one’s heart out, and sun
it in the light of human eyes. And now, cer
tain! v with a stronger pulse—perhaps with ;
fresher sympathies—we are in our sanctum •
the winds tearing as madly about it, as
though it were a November day in a sea-coast
village of New England, and not an August
day in the far South. We are here, enjoying
the rain as it patters, ami the wind as it ra
ges—for around us are the familiar faces look
ing down—almost in welcome, as it seems to
us—from tbe shelves; and to the number—
thanks to our fiends, tbe publishers—some
new ones have been added. To these, let us
have the pleasure of introducing you, kind
reader:
1. We have received from Mr. J. S. Redfield,
Clinton Hall, New York— Lectures and
Miscellanies —by Henry Janies.
Mr. James commenced life as a young
•mail of fortune and fashion, and of course,
tn such a place as New York, it did not take j
long to make a considerable subtraction from
Siis patrimony, and add largely to his knowl
edge of vice and the emptiness of the world.
Sated, weary, blase, he turned him to seek
the fountains of a better life, where he might
wash away the earth mould, and find spiritu- i
til renovation. Lie sought long and earnest
ly, but as yet in vain—for not easily does the I
bleared, dull eye of a disgusted man of the
world, and one withal of fine powers, 1 irge |
endowment—of half poetic, half philosophic ‘
instincts—see the spring of blessedness. The
Saratogas and White Sulphurs of the soul
were tried without effect—for it needed more
than pharasaie pomp and fasli*o:iab!e formal
ism, to cure a nature confinnedly dyspeptic
as his. Pei Imps among new scenes, and new
associations, relief may be found from this
gnawing and nausea. \ isits to Lorettos are
immemorial as the Popes; trips to “.Meccas ot |
the mind” antedate Mahomet. The shrine of j
Carlyle, with its nebulous drapery—half j
tobacco smoke, half the mist of Hegeli- !
auism—is resorted to, hut the oracle tells not j
of the healing flood. Try hydropathy! some ;
one suggests. Under the care of one of
Presnitz’s eminent disciples, the body is
helped; but a man’s conscience i; not his
stomach, nor the ganglionic centres. Al
most disheartened, our pilgrim is about to
give over, when, in the back parlor of a [
modest man of science, he hears some intel
ligeiic© of the lirunnen lie had been looking |
for. This man of science—J. J. G. Wilkin- [
son, by name—had drunk deeply of the stream
himself, and was now glad to tell others of
its depth, its beauty, its power. In the books
of Emmanuel Swedenborg, were yet fuller ti
dings of the fountain. Long draughts, and
deep, our wanderer took, and felt himself
new again. And now, heart-whole, with
purged sight, he comes to tell his fellow-men
of the healing waters. The book before us i
. I
— preceded two or three years since bj 7 a i
tractate on Moralism and Christianity—com- j
prises, in the fragmentary form of lectures, j
and articles furnished to the New Y ork Tri- ]
buns, some of Mr. James’ views on some of j
the most vital questions which arc now agi
tating society.
We doubt much if he lias emerged sufti- ;
cientiy from his abnormal state, to contrib- j
•ate much to the world-making, now in pro !
gross. It will require the generalizations of :
a more comprehensive intellect, and the pro
cesses of a vaster nature than our author’s, j
to lav the foundations of the new Continents
where coming generations shall dwell. Asa
glimpse into the idiosyncrasies of an earnest
man—as a leaf in the natural history of a
class of men, not rare, nor few—this book has
interest and value. The subjects discussed
are mainly included in Sociology and 1 he
ology, where, respectively, a leaning is
shown towards Fourier and Swedenborg —
albeit, neither is blindly followed. Through
out, you trace the action of a mind in earnest,
though not thoroughly disciplined, speaking
with confidence of that which it sees, and is
impelled to declare. Mr. James is yet in the
Protestant condition, involving antagonism, |
where he has as much to deny as affirm, j
YYe shall be gi.ui to hear from him again,
when he shall have come into a more calm
and catholic mood. Meanwhile, we com
mend this volume to those who would note
the signs of the times, by the blowing of the
straws.
2. We have likewise received from Mr. lied
lield, a copy of the Poetical Works of
Fitz Greene Halleck.
Anew edition of one of our favorite Poets
—long a desideratum. Me need not speak
here of the author of Alnwick Castle, and
Marco Bozzaris. His praise is voiced in the
fact that more of his phrases are coined into
the speech of the time, than from any other
American Poet—and this is piaise enough
Here, however, the exquisite stanzas revel in
the luxury of as fine paper and clear type, as
the perfection of publishing can afford. We
cannot resist the temptation to offer Mr. Red
field our thanks, for the unsurpassed beauty
of his publications for some months past
M can while, let those who want the notes of
one of our country’s sweetest singers, obtain
this, the handsomest edition of his works.
3. On the Use of Words —bv Richard Chen
evix Trench. New York: Redfield.
We are glad to meet oiir old and highly
esteemed friend, Mr. Trench, again, in this i
little volume. Every subject be touches, :
grows luminous before the popular eye. And
surely none possesses more interest, and at I
the same time, more needs to he brought j
home to universal appreciation, than that
treated in this volume. While students have
always found Etymology one of the most
profitable and fascinating pursuits, all save
them have passed the current speech from
mouth to mouth, thoughtless that In “these
little oids, which, by daily use, have almost
lost their meaning,” there lay a world of
beauty and oi truth. “\\ hat riches,” one ex
claims, “lie hidden in the vulgar speech of
our poorest and most ignorant! What flow
ers of Paradise lie under our feet, with their
beauties and their parts undistinguished and
undiscovered, from having been daily trod
den on !”
We are aware that this study is usually
deemed dull and dry. A greater mistake I
does not exi-t. “Fossil poetry”—as Mr. Em- j
erson has happily styled language—offers as
many charms as one can well desire. And
when once entered upon, no branch of knowl
edge is more fertile of benefit. “I am sure,”
says our author, “that for many a young
man, his first discovery of the fact that words
are living powers, has been like the dropping
of scales from his eyes—like the acquiring of
another sense, or the introduction into an
other world.”
Mr. Trench firings to his subject wide
learning, genial—indeed, poetic susceptibiii
ties—with a sincere wish to benefit thos.‘ for
whom the volume is intended. With these,
he has made a book which cannot fail to in
struct and delight any, into whose hands it
may fall.
l ake some specimens to make good our
claim. Here is the word
Tkikvlation.
‘ft is derived from the Latin ‘tribulum' —
which was the threshing instrument or roller
whereby the Roman husbandman separated
the corn from the husks, and ‘ lribulatio ,’ in
its primary sense, was the act of this separa
tion. But some Latin writer of the Chris- i
tiaii Church appropriated the word and im- i
age for the setting forth of a higher truth,
and sorrow, distress, and adversity being the
appointed means for separating, in mm,
their chaff from their wheat; of whatever in :
I
them was light, and trivial, and poor, from j
the solid and the true; therefore lie called!
these sorrows and griefs, ‘tribulations’ —
threshings—that is, of the inner, spiritual man,
without which, there could be no fitting him
for the heavenly garner.”
Here is a pleasant discourse on the word
Kind.
“You speak of a ‘kind’ person, and you |
speak of maa-'kin;!,’ and perhaps, if 3'ou
think about, the matter at all, we seem to our- j
selves to be using quite different words, or j
tbe same word in senses quite unconnected,
and having 110 bond between them. But
thev are connected, and that most closely ; a j
‘kind’ person is a binned person ; one of kin;
one who acknowledges and acts upon his
kinship with other men; confesses that ho
ow es to them, as of one blood with himself,
the debt of love. And so mankind, is man
‘kiimed.’ In the word is contained a decla
ration of the relationship which exists be
tween all the members of the human family ;
and seeing that this relationship in a race,
now scattered so widely, and scattered so
far asunder, can only be through a common
head, we do in fact, every time we use the
word ‘mankind,’ declare our faith in the one
common descent of the whole race of man
And beautiful before, how much more beau
tiful now, do the words ‘kind’ and ‘kindness’
appear, when we perceive the root out of
which they grow ; that they are the acknowl
edgment. in deeds of love, of our kinship with
our brethren !”
Take this illustration of the testimony
which words bear to national degeneracy:
Virtue and Cicero.
“We cannot wonder that Italy should fill
the Great Exhibition with beautiful speci
mens of her skill in the arts, bat should only
rivet her chains the more closely 7 by the weak
and ineffectual efforts she makes to break j
them, when she degrades the word ‘virtuoso,’
or ‘the virtuous,’ to signify one accomplished i
in painting, music and sculpture—such things 1
as are the ornamental fringe of a nation’s j
lire, but can never be made, without a loss of |
all manliness of character, its main texture !
and woof. Again, how little the modern j
Italians live in the spirit of their ancient wor
thies, or reverence the greatest among them,
we ma} 7 argue from the fact that they are con
tent to take one among their noblest, and de
grade it so far that every glib, loquacious
hireling, who shows strangers about their
picture galleries, palaces and ruins, is term
er! by them a ‘Cicerone,’ or ‘Cicero.’ ”
Any one desirous of a rich treat of instruc
tion and amusement, may obtain this volume,
sure oi’ finding it.
FIFTY THOUSAND PERSONS,
Dio annually in England of CONSUMPTION.
In the New England States, tile proportion is one in
four or five. In Boston, probably one in four. In the
city ot New York, sixty-seven died in two weeks in De
cember of this disease. It is less prevalent in the
more northern latitudes, as Russia, Canada and among
the Alps of Switzerland, where the winters are long
and severe, and there are fewer sudden changes.
No theory can be more welcome to the human mind
than r e one which establishes on good grounds the
hope for prolonged existence. If the allegations of
those who are at least entitled to veracity may be be
lieved, there is a preventive and a remedy.
Tbe great Author of Nature has provided us with a
remedy for Consumption, and the diseases leading
thereto, which are so fearfully common in our country.
Has He left us to find relief from that fatal scourge
by ransacking other lauds 1 No ! the be-t, Nature's own
remedy, is at our hand. The Wild Cherry and the I
Pine furnish us with a cure, where a cute is possible. I
One of the most important discoveries of the age, in
ameliorating the condition of this large class of sufier
ing humanity, is
DR. WIST Ail’S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, I
which has been Fore the public some ten years. This
valuable medicine was first discovered and introduced
in the year 1833—since which time its success has con
stantly increased the demand, until it has become one
of, if not THE MOST POPULAR REMEDY FOR
CONSUMPTION, in its incipient stage, ever known.
