WEIGHT & CO., Editors and Proprietor a. Friday Horsing, December 3, 1869 Fashion Books nod Children’* Magazines Mugaxinea publ.ahed for women, are always dovoled more or Irea to the fashions, as that ia the subject In which women chiefly interest themselves. The principal of iht-se publications, in America, are Goduy's Lady's Dook, Harper's B aar, and a German paper, culled Die Modern welt, nr World of Fashion. Harper’s Baser is chiefly pirated from this last and other foreign publication* of similar character, in itt fashion department, wbil* tbe poetry, stories aod fancy pictures, are generally stolen Irom Loudon Ho ciety aud Belgravia. Gihicy'a was the first fashion book ever regu larly established in this country, and its success gavu rise to the many imitations published at the present day. It is the on* above all others, which we would recommend to our lady friends, and for tha following reasmi*. First, iu wind ■ noma moral tone. Fashion hooks, on account of the pictures, art always eagerly sought after by tho ohildren of a family, and it ia therefore of high importance that their morality should not ho of aa modem a caste aa Ibeir fashion plates Th* atotirs which fill the pages of snch publications ns Harper's liaxar, Frank loMlie'a aud M#lame Demurest*' Magsxinr., arc not pro|>rr for respcctaolv women, much leu inno cent children, to read. The modem English novel, has slink to a lavs! with tha vary wont Frchcli rotWirbs of tha Eugene Buo and Caul de Musset type, and modem raagasine Sorias, ate for the most part, a few degrees below them both, in morality apd intellectual merit. Hence, it is impo«rible to place worse reading in the bunds of children, than the silly, and 100 nfu-ii indecent .tone-, that mar the pages of second and third rate ladies’ inagaiinea Gpdey is perfectly fro# from these objections, and may b« safely trusted in the hands of every roemUr of a household, iu the next place, thi* publica tion answer* it* purpose a< a fashion magax ne liciter than any other, and Is peculiarly adapted tu the India# of the South, lie causa It does not altogether ignore -hort purses. Other books of the same kind, are explicit in their directions for making new and expensive dresses, and trimming them with expensive materials— directions that are about as available to our poverty stricken rebel ladies, ss are the extravagaut notions of a metropolitan modiste, who will look at nothing last tintn a six dollar repp or a roll of point I .tea. Godsy's chit chit about the fashions, not only gives pro* vinciali an accurate idea of wbat ia woru in the great centres of tha fa«ltinp*ble world, but con descends, now and then, to suggest sotuc plan for altering the dress of a past season tn suit (he modes of thu present, mid it also gives directions for making stylish anil pretty dresses out us siniple and inevpausive materials. Lust, but not least, it i* an honast, self sus taining publication. Ita articles are all bought aod paid for, not pilfered second hand from for eign periodicals. Moreover, it never meddles with politics, and the Southern reader may feel sure of finding nothing abusive or insulting in its pages. Many Southern writer* ate employed among whom may be meutioned Marion liar land, us one of tho oust popular. Os muguniiiea for children, wu would rccom mend for very young fo'ks, just learning tu read a little paper called tha Norrery, it i. pub fished ouoe a month, is filled with pioturo* and stories about b rti-. and boasts, and girls and boys, slid all thus* little iocideult of every day life that inteif.l children iu the first stage, of intellectual development. Nay, w« will cron confoss to a liking far ita pages ourselves, aud aie right glad us an excuse, sometimes, for read ing it tu our little folks at homo. For older children—aay from teu to fourteen, or fifteen, tho Riverside Mag.xine is excellent. It succeeds better than any publication we _k»ow, in combining aiuuseaent and instruction so nicely as to conceal from children the fact that they aru being iss'rucled while amusing them selves. 81 any of its articles *r«= not without interest to grown people, anJ children wfio hue# foes access to ita pages, will h* very apt to grow up with a taste for the highest anil bast style of literature. B'heu bora and girls out grow the Riverside Magajiue, they are toady, aa a general thing, to dip into grown people's hooka, though if one should fancy ao intermediate, we would re comax nd Chambers Journal for boy a. It ia an ErrgUah Uagasipe, tut it r* published iu this country, or if not, cap bf* had at a very modcr ate prise,of V. W. Christem, the great pub lisher and importer of foreign books and papers iu New York. Chambers Journal is a cheap mofaiine, edited with special reference to the wauls of the masses, and therefore never eon tains anything lies deep ot recondite for the uu of aa iprelligvut boy. Like Hist Hannah More's storiae for \he middle and lower cleave*, iti* conducted jfitli a perspicuity and simplicity that recommends it to the taste of young persona aa u*U as to the educated, bui uueeieiitilie reader |u genprol We will publish elsewhere the addresses of the various papera we bavoheon recommending, tog vtlier with the piic* ot eaelL Persona wish | mg more As finite mtormauoo can apply lu in personally, ami we will giev them lU* best in our power. Ike Bitnatiqn ia Spaia- It remains to ha seta whether Spain has yet arrived at a stata of revolution or of anarchy* Os all coantnc* iu the world, she ia one of tha oust baffling to politician*, and in* of which it I* impassible to make any prediction* as to tb# future On* reason of this, is owing to tha great variety of poblleal and social aleaMaU at work within bar bosom. No country ia tba world, except Austria, and peril* pc tha Uni tad States, calling itMlf a nation, contain so little national unity. Skim off a tbin stratum of social culture, and tha differences of type among bar people are greater than those of Yankee and duusberoar, and almost as great as tha difference between distinct European nation*. Andalua aod Catalan, Vixeaiuo aod Gallege, ar* scarcely more alike than German aod Scandinavian. For tbit reason. Dm expsrieuo* of one who is fa miliar with a single province, it of very little worth at a criterion to judga the nation by. Besides these differences of national or rather provincial type, there are social and political ■dements us dittoed which it teems impossible bar any Government to harmonise, and which are represented respectively by the republicans and Ilia priests. It ia a greet mistake to sup pose that republicanism is of so very receot growth in Spain—it lim been spreading among the working classes for twenty or thirty years Hines IMS, w* are told that Uw working men of North Eastern Spain, have become repubii cans, to a man, and at tha Baal* Congress, the ■Spanish working men’s associations, were mid’ to contain 1*5,000 member*. Opposed to tb* Republican party, i* that dense mass or Spanish ignorance and superstition which ia goreroed by thu Itomish priaatboud. Tha sympathise of tbia claaa ar* with tbe exiled family, though lu a|««hy and inaetiun ia such aa to render it* sympathy of very little practical importance, one way or auolhar Between these twoparties stands lb* present Government of Spain and its supporters These are comparatively a small part ot the Spanish people,though, a* they rep resent tb* moat cultivated and anlightanad, they are at preMnt the mret powerful. It is doobfui, howevsr, how lung tbe present Gov emoient can maintain a balance at power be tween tha other opposing factions, so closely united in ignorance and lawlessness. The He publican party, though apparently defeated and overthrown, is supported by tbe public opinion of the day, and by tbe Cuban iotorraelioa, and is secretly growing in strength and influence The whirl* tendency of the present age, is to wards republicanism and agrarianism, and though wise mot) may stave off tbo evil a little while, w* doubt not that Spam will foil, aoonsr or later, ioto that state of legalised anarchy, known at a republic. Since 17M, tha whole world lias been tending in this direction, aud tbe fat# of every nation, from Kuisia to Brasil, ia a mere question of time. The world ia done with auperetitioo and despotism, and society it uow rebounding to the other extreme of lieenM and agrariauism Public opinion will osoillate many timet between theac two equally pernicious ex trainee, before it settle# in the juat medium of constitutional representative government, with a limited franchise. Bpain is now in a state of oscillatiou—whe baa broken the hands of despu liem—a strong hand ia struggling tu hold her in place, but the national pendulum will eihratt to the other extreme, before it aettlw quietly to rest bet warn the two. A Hew Hovel. Mrs. Augusta Evans Wilson, is not in another work-."Vuhli, or Until Death us da Part," it thelitis. The admirers of Mrs. Evans tt ilami, will find in this hook whatever pleased their fancy in her former publications, a* R is just like the rest of them. All the faults that mar her other works are to he found in this—tbe pedantry, the unnatural and strained charac ters, tha want of originality. Mrs. Evans re punts herself—the eau paint but one alyle of charauter, and ia all hsr books, gives us the tame hero an J heroin* with a slight change of dress and external circumstances. In all hsr works, w* bare the poor, proud and bookish heroin#, tho stately magnificent, haughty bam. tor all the world like a sentimental school girl's beau ideal. In Maooaria, there was a slight effort to vary these ty|>»t by making a j«or, proud hero and a rich grand heroine, but they were precisely the Mini people that we have in Beulah and St. Elmo, with their atluationa re versed. Mr# Evans can talk ologitt tad' uuoMyi, and isms, world without end, can draw plots and situations, hut in tbs novelists highest art, rharactar painting, aha is a total failure '< •he lias studied books too much, human nature too little; ib*«l*p*nds too much upon imagine lion,loo little upon ohearvatioa We publish below for the ioloruatinn of our readers, tha letter of Judge Iteese to 'he Georgia Republican, drawn out by the Repubii can. account of the recent destruction of Books and Records, in t|ie Revenue A sressor's Office at this plac*. Judge Reese's letter will explain itself: Editor cj Georgia Republican —llxaa Sib : Your paper of the I9th, containing a notice of the reuuqtoutrage upon the booksof.the Revenue officer, Mr Wilson, at this place, stats that I had ox pressed my determination to bring the matter before tire Grand Jury in December uezt. .is this iioltcu is calculated to i|o others great in justice, (undervignedly, no doubt,) allow me to state exactly That passed between Mr. Wilson and myself on Monday morning l&ih instant. Having confarred with aaveyal leading citizens of this place, particularly with G<ut JDuliose, I inhumed Mr. Witson that wa had agreed, (naming Oen Dußose and myself,) if tin's mat ter should be left with the civil authorities of the connty to redress, that we would Urge the Grand Jury aoon to assemble, to iuveafigat# the. affair thoroughly. I elated to Mr. Wilson that we did not wish any soldiers to be brought here on accouut of an aot of malicious mischief —, Further, I informed Mr. Wilson that on the Friday night preceding the ourtage on himself somu persons, most probably the same, had torn dowu the fences at the Methodist Parsonage, and on the night following had broken into the enclosure of the Female Semiuary and had per petrated serious end ehametul outrages bj breaking tbs palings, cutting off the well back et, etc, that I believe the time and opportunity had arrived for punishing these offenders.— T here i* but one feeling here about the matter, that ia to uaa all the power of the law to ferret out and bring to juetioe thee* violators of the law. If hosrever, as you suggest, the United States government sends troops here to maieh about and do uotking (for ihty can do nothing with such a matter aa thia) wa will have no thing lurlher to do with the outrage or Mr. Wil ton.
