We have quite a number of Books, Papers, and Periodicals on our table awaiting notice, which circumstances have prevented us from giving heretofore. We shall endeavor to make up for seem ing past remissness on our part, by com mencing the very pleasing task here: Devotion* to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, by Secoudo Franco, 6. J. Translated from the Italian, Balti more: John Murphy <fe Cos. This is an excellent little volume, well calculated to stimulate the pious and en courage the lukewarm. It should find a place in every Catholic family. Tile Guardian Angel.— This well conducted little monthly continues to pay its welcome visits to our office. It is a Catholic publication that ought to be liberally sustained. Published monthly in Philadelphia, Pa., by Gillin, McGui gan A Grsffin, at 50 cts. per annum in ad vance. Sunday Schools supplied at the rate of $3 00 per one hundred copies, in advance. The Southern Farm & House.— Devoted to Agricultural Interests, is pub lished monthly in Macon, Ga., by J. W. Burke & Cos., at $2.00 per annum in ad vance—a very deserving publication. Punchinello.— We have received sev eral numbers of this new comic jour nal. It is well conducted, profusely illus trated, and full of capital hits at the times —being particularly severe on the modern drama and the modern Con gress. We learn that it has a capital of over $60,000 to commence with, and that some of the best wits and humorists of the country are employed to furnish the letter press and illustrations. It is to this country what Pumh is to England, and seems destined to be successful. An adaptation of “Edwin Drood’’ has been recently commenced in its pages by Or pheus O. Ker, entitled “The Mystery of Mister E. Drood.” Published by the Punchinello Publishing Cos., 83 Nassau St., New York, at $4.00, with a $2.00 Chromo Premium. The Young Crusader. —The Crusader has been enlarged and the June number makes its appearance in anew cover. One copy, one year, sl-00. Boston, Mass., Rev. Wm. Byrne, Editor. The Crusader isa capital Catholic Juveuile and deserves a large patronage.

Messrs Ditson & Cos., are famous for the variety and value of their musical publications; and in this little book they have given a very useful work to organ playors. The arrangement and se lection of the pieces seem to be excel lent, and the book will doubtless have, as it deserves, a large circulation. Beach Bluff, a tale of the South, by Fannie Warner. Philadelphia: Peter F. Cunningham, 216 South Third Street, 1870. A charmign story, told in a charming way, by a charming Catholic writer. The scene is located in the South, prin cipally in Georgia, and the interest of the story is well kept up from first to last. It will be read with pleasure and profit by all who have the goud fortune to undertake its perusal, and once com menced it will not bo left until finished. In the same volume are two short tales or sketches entitled, “Agnes,” and “After Many Days,” both of which are well written and interesting- The volume is neatly' printed and handsomely bound. Farmer and Artisan.— This capital weekly, devoted to Agricultural and Me chanical interests, has just completed its first semi-annual volume. Those who have preserved the numbers, from week to week, have a handsome volume of 416 pages of valuable industrial reading, with numerous illustrations. The Pub lisher announces that the experiment of a weekly journal devoted to the reviving industries of the South, is a success. A weekly has unquestionably some points of interest and value which the numerous excellent agricultural monthlies do not possess. Many things cannot be fully discussed, or fully advertised in a monthly before the season is over; while four is sues in a month afford ample time for discussion and application of new facts, theories, Ac. Therefore, we hail the weekly press, devoted to improved hus bandry as an invaluable auxiliary to the farming interest. The Fanner and Ar tisan is a handsome quarto of 16 pages. Each number contains, besides valuable original matter, the best articles from the industrial journals of this country and Europe. Timely papers on cotton, grain, and grass culture, fruit growing, garden ing, and the wide range of topics of in terest to house-wives, enrich its pages. Much space is also devoted to mechanical interests. Tiie present is a good time to subscribe. Terms’ $3 a year, or $1.50 per volume of six months. Address, Farmer and Artisan, Athens, Ga. Hon. L. T. Wigfall —The Galvestcn News, of the 18th instant, says of this gentleman : This gentleman, who is now in Colorado, has bought No. G, east of the Seaton lode, from Reed and Saunders, and has gone to work.

OBITUARY. Died, in this city, on the Bth of April, 1870, Mrs. H. BLOME, in the 77th yetr of her age. This estimable lady had, by her kind and genial disposition, endeared herself to a very large circle of friends and acquaint ances, and her decease, although not un expected, has cast a shadow of sorrow over many who enjoyed her friendship. She possessed the rare*faculty of inspiring in others a respect and esteem which amounted, in some instances, almost to veneration. And she was, indeed, in every way worthy that respect and esteem, for in her character were bleuded all those at tributes that make a nature kind and loveable. The remembrance of her agree able traits will preserve in the memory of those who admired her for her worth many pleasant und affectionate recollec tions. Mrs. Biome was, perhaps, one of the oldest residents of Augusta. Her energy and vivacity were remarkable in a person of her years, and her health and activity did not fail until a very short time before her death. Her long and useful life will not be without its lesson to those who sur vive her, for she was a steadfast adherent to her faith, and her whole life was charac terized by that pletv and devotion which only the true Christian can exhibit. Death had no terrors for he 7 -—she was fully re signed to the w ill of her Heavenly Father, for she gaye up her spirit without a struggle, and passed away as calmly and peacefully as if in a slumber. It is only the good that can die thus —those who put their trust in Providence, and who are prepared when the signal comes. We will not enter theaffleted family cir cle, in which her death has made .such a void, for they have the profound sympa thy of all who knew' the deceased. She was a good and kind mother, a conscien tious friend and adviser, and they have the assurance that her long and well spent life has fully prepared the way' to that blessed immortality upon which she has entered. *** FACTS FOR THE LADIES. I purchased a Wheeler & Wilson Sewing-Machine about ten years ago, and while learning to use it, without in struction, broke one needle; after that, for more than nine years, I had the ma chine in almost daily use, doing- all my family sewing and very much for friends and others, and instructed seven persons in the use of the machine, without break ing a needle. My machine has never cost one penny for repairs. I have sew ed hours with a wearisome babe in my lap, working upon fabrics of the most delicate texture, as well as upon men’s and boys’ clothes of the heaviest ma terial I have made garments for the cradle, the bridal, tho hospital, and the fnneral. Entering into every 7 vicissi tude of life, my machine has become as it were a part ol my being. Mrs. M. L. Peck. Mexico. N. Y. July, 2—ts. I have used Dr. Simmons’ Liver Regulator in my family 7 for Dyspepsia and Sick Headache, and regard it as an invaluable remedy in these attacks. It has not failed to give relief ia any in stance* Rev. W. F. EASTECLING. Florida Conference. July 7 2—ts, HEALTH’S BEST DEFENCE. “The weak cateth herbs.” says Sfc. Paul, so that eighteen hundred years ago' the value of medicinal plants was appre ciated. In the Old Testament botanical remedies are repeatedly recommend, but in no passage of sacred history is man re commended to swallow colomel, or blue pill, or any other mineral preparation. The sick were directed to eat herbs to strengthen them, to purify them, to heal them, to restore them. In that day the art of making vegetable extracts w r as un known. The herbal medicines W’ere mere infusions. It was reserved for a later age to unite the sanitary essences of tonic, aperient and antibilious roots, barks, and plants with an active stimulant, and thus secure their rapid diffusion through the debiliat ed or disordered system. The crowning triumph of this effective mode of con centrating and applying the virtues of medicinal vegetables was achieved in the production of Hostetter’s Stomach Bit ters. Never before had a perfectly pure alcoholic stimulant been combined with the expressed juices of the finest specifics of the vegetable kingdom. Never, yet though eighteen years have elapsed since its introduction, has this great restorative been equalled. It is taken at all seasons in all climes, as the most potent safe guard s gainst epidemics, as a protection against all unhealthy exhalations that produce debility or beget disease; as a remedy for intermittent and other mala rious fevers; as an appetizer; a.? a so vereign cure for dyspepsia; as a general tonic and invigorant; as a gentle, painless aperient; a blood depurent; as a nervine as a cure for biilious affections; as a harm less anodyne and as the best defence of HEALTH under unfavorable circum stances, such as sedentary pursuits, un due bodily or mental exertion, hardship privation and exposure. IYP-Kayton’s Oil of Life cures all pains and aches, and is the great rheu matic remedy. aug 7—ts . Kayton’s Pills cure sick head aches and all bilious disorders. [HP* The wonderful properties of the Pyrafuge is showing itself daily in the blooming cheeks of our former ema ciated citizens, all of whom declare that until they tried this great chill and fever expeller, they knew not what it was to be clear, even for a few days, of tho scourge of our Southern country; but thanks to science and our enterprising townsman, we need no longer fear this great scourge, aud we can now go on our way rejoicing that at last a conqueror is at our hands which will instantly 7 expel from our system chills and fever, dumb ague, and those diseases incidental to malarious climates. Keep a bottle of the Pyrafuge iu the house, aud as soon as the chill or fever is felt commence taking it, and at once you are really making a lasting and permanent cure, aug. 7—ts Republican Koskoo.— This medicine is rapidly gaining the confidence of the people, and the numerous testimonials of its virtues, given by practitioners of medicine, leaves no doubt that it is a safe and reliable remedy 7 for Impurity of the Blood, Liver Disease, &c. The last Medical Journal contains an article from Prof. R. S. Newton, M. D., President of the E. Medical College, city of New York, that speaks in high terms of its curative properties, and gives a special recommendation of Koskoo to the practitioners of medicine. This is, we believe, the first instance where such medicines have been officially endorsed by the Faculty of any of the medical col leges, and reflects great credit upon the skill of Dr. Lawrence, its compounder, and also puts “Koskoo” in the van of all other medicines of the present day’.
