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 can.'] SUMMERVILLE SEMINARY male and female.

Prospectus for 1874 —Sixth Year, THE ALDINF, An Illustrated Mont lily Journal, universally admitted to be the Handsomest Periodical in the World. A Represent olive and Champion of Amciirau Taste. Not for Kale ill Hook or .News Stores. - , ....... 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.
