EULWER DEAD.
A brief telegram, dated Tendon,
Jan. 18tb, announces that Edward
Lytton Bulwer, the grcaPEngiisli nove
list, is dead. The death roll of last
year was rich in illustrious names, but
the present year opens even more for
midably, and already, in nineteen days,
has been add<;d to the list the names of
Napoleon, the prince of rulers, and Bub
wer, the prince of English novelists.
It is more than thirty years since
Bulwer hast appeared as a novelest, and
since that time there has been “no ro-,
posing under the shade of bis laurels
—no living upon the resource of past j
reputation—his foot was always in the
arena —his shield hung always in the j
lists.”
Bulwer was remarkable in this, than
he has sought and obtained distinction
in almost every department of litera
ture—in poetry, the drama, the histori
cal romauce, domestic novel philosophi
cal essay, and political disquisitio ■. lie
appeared as an author in a printed vol
ume in his fifteenth year—a fact which
is somewhat remarkable, the only other
known instance being that of Cowley.
His first novel appeared in June,
1820, Ismeal, an Oriental Tale.
In 1828 he published Pelham, a
brilliant, witty book, full of sceues of
intrigue arid passion.
Eugene Aram, the novel which be
claims to be his best, is a highly
wrought fiction,ingeniously put together
embodying many fine passages, but
somewhat uncertain as to its moral
tone.
The last days of Pompeii, and Ilienzi
the Last of the Tribunes, are both bril
liant, classic and high toned, and upon
these his reputation must eventually
rest. The Last of the Barons, and
Harold, the Last of the Saxon Kings,
are inferor but vigorous. Although
Bulwer. is the best known as a nove.
list, he was not without ambition in
the field of politics. He was elected
to the House of Commons repeatedly,
and was a supporter of extreme reform
principles. He conferred a signal favor
on bis party by a political pamphlet, en
titled “The Crisis,” which met with
great success.
His parliamentary speeches have been
few, but able and comprehensive. In
the busiest portions of his political life
however neglected. In 1853 he receiv
ed the degree of D. C. L. from the Uni
versity of Oxford, and in 1866 was
elected rector of the University of
Glasgow, and in 1858 he joined the
administration of the Earl of Derby as
Secretary for Colonial affairs. lie is
best known to Americans, however,
through his works, and many an Ameri
can youth and maiden have pourded
over his fascinating pages until the
small hours surprised them. Ilulwer
has enshrined himself in many a heart,
and all the world over, the news of his
death will cause a pang of keenest pain
at this snapping of the affections that
he had bound to him. Such a man
however, can never die. He has won,
by his labors, if not immortality, cer
tainty a long lease of life and favor in
the years to come. The world can
hardly afford to loose in quick succes
sion a Thackeray, a Dickens, and
ulwer.—[ From, the 8 avarmah Republi

THE ALDINE, while itmuod with nil tbo
regularity, has none of tho temporary or timely
interest ehawoterUtie of ordinary peri<ici*l.a —*
It i* an elegant niiaoeliany of pure, light, nml
graceful literature j und a collection f picture*,
the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black
and white'- Although each succeeding number
affords n fresh plea-ure to its friends, the real
value and beauty of The Atdine will bo most ap
preciated aftor it has been hound up at the clew
of Ihe year. While other publications mayelaiin
superior cheapness, ns compared with rivujsof a
similar class, The Airline is uniuue and original
conception—alone and una pproacned absolutely
without competition in price or character. Tho
possessor of a complete volume cannot, duplicate
the quantity of flue paper and engraving* in any
other shape, or number of volumes for ten times
Us cost; and then , there are the chromes , besides! j
ART 15 PABTMENT - j
Notwithstanding the increase in Ihe price of
j subscription last Fall, when The Aid in e assumes
| its present noble proportions and representative
I character, the edition was more than doubted
during the past year; proving that the Ameri
can public appreciate, nnd will support n sin-
I core effort in the cause of Art. The publishers,
anxious to justify the ready confidence thus
j demonstrated, have exerted themselves-to the
utmost to develop nnd improve the work ; and
, tho plans for tho coming year, as unfolded by the
! monthly issues, will astonish and delight even
the mod sanguine friends of The Atdine.
The publishers are authorized to announce de
| sign* from many of the most eminent artists in
America
in addition, The Atdine will reproduce ex
amples of tho host foreign masters, selected with
a view to the highest artistic success, and great
est general interest; avoiding such as have be
come familiar, through photographs, or copies
of any kind.
The quarterly tinted plates, for 1873 will re
produce four of John S. Davis’ inimitable ohild
sketehes, appropriate to the four seasons. These
plates, appearing in the issues for January,
April, July, and October, would be alone worth
the price of a year’s subscription.
Tho popular feature of ft copiously illustrated
“Christmas” number will bo continued.
To possess such a valuable epitome of tho art
world at a cost so trifling, will command the
subscriptions of thousands in every section of
the country; but, as the usefulness and attrac
tions of The Atdine can bo enhanced, in propor
tion to tho numorical increase of its supporters,
the publishers propose to tnako “assurance doubly
dure,” by the following unparalleled offer of
Premium Chromos for 187 3.
Every subscriber to The Aldine, who pays in ad
vance for tho year 1873, will receive, without addi
tional charge, u pair of beautiful oil chromos, aftor
T. .T. It'll, the eminent English painter. The pic
tures entitled “The Village Belie,” nnd “Crossing
the Moor,” are 14x20 inches—are printed from 25
different plates, requiring 25 impressions and tints
to perfect each picture. The same chromos are
I sold for S3O per pair in the art stores. A- it is the
! determination of its conductors to keep The. Aldine
' out of tlie reach of competition in every depart
; ment, the chromos will be found correspondingly
, ahead of any that can lie otfered by other periodi
cals. Every subscriber will receive a certificate,
> over the signature of the publishers, guaranteeing
j that the chromos delivered stia!) be equal to the
! samples furnished the agent, or the money will lie
I refunded. The distribution of pict a res of this grade,
! free to the subscribers to a five dollar periodical,
. will mark an epoch in the history of Art; and,eon
! sidering the unprecedented cheapness of the price
| for The Aldine itself, the marvel fails little short of
j a miracle, oven to those best acquainted with the
I achievements of Inventive genius and Improved
! mechanical appliances. (For illustrations of those
! chromos, see N ivember issue of 'The Aldine.
The l.tterary Department
| wi 1 continue under the care of Mr. Richard Jlrs
rv Stodpard, assisted by tbe best writers and poets
! of the dav, who will strive to have the literature of
The Atdine always in keeping with its artistic
attractions.
TERMS—SS per annum, in advance, with Chromos free.
The Aldine will, hereafter, be obtainable only bv
subscription. There will be no reduced or club
rate; cash for subscriptions must be sent to the
publishers direct, or handed to the local agent,
•rithout responsibility to the jiublishers, except in
cases where the certificate is given, bearing tho
