intelligent people are constantly asking about telescopes and the discoveries made with them. The subject is developed in the historic order, the reader being shown, in the first part, how, from the crude observations of the heavenly bodies made by the ancients, men were able to ascend step by step, until Newton and Laplace mastered all the laws of the celestial motions. The remaining and larger portion of the work is principally devoted to the telescope and its discoveries. Technical details which might weary the reader are, for the most part, avoided, while especial attention is devoted to the philosophical side of the subject. It is a comprehensive hand-book of existing knowledge of the universe.

GENERAL DE CESNOLA'S magnificent work on "Cyprus" (Harper) is a complete account of the great work done by him during his ten years' residence as United States Consul on the island of Cyprus, in unearthing the wonderful collection of art treasures now permanently established at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. It relates minutely his experiences, giving full accounts of all the discoveries that were made, describing the articles found, rehearsing his difficulties with the Turkish authorities, and telling many pleasing incidents of every-day life on the island. General de Cesnola's discoveries not only throw an entirely new light upon many centuries of Cypriote civilization, but they also illustrate that of Egypt, Phoenicia, Assyria, and Greece. He has restored, if not the whole, yet a great portion of the "missing link" between the first and the last of these great forces in human history.

HARPER & BROTHERS have nearly ready the first volume of Mr. J. R. Green's "History of the English People," as revised and extended by him into a library edition. This has already made its mark as one of the standard histories of this historical century. In the new work the whole book is rearranged, its plan is made more systematic, the narrative is more continuous, the style is chastened, errors are corrected, many of Mr. Green's peculiarities in the division of his subject have been abandoned, and the whole book wears a greater aspect of sobriety and maturity both of thought and style. The first volume covers Early England, 4491071.-England under Foreign Kings, 10711214.-The Charter, 1209-1291.-The Parliament, 1307-1461-and has eight maps.

MEMORY GEMS FOR THE YOUNG," edited by Charles Northend, A.M., has just been published by D. Appleton & Co. Mr. Northend collects in this little volume two hundred and twenty-nine short selections, in prose and poetry, from one hundred authors. The selections are well made, and the authors range from Tupper to Shakespeare. The editor's design in making the book has been to encourage the memorizing of the selections in public schools, somewhat after the fashion of Scripture texts in Sunday-schools. Mr. Northend well says that "youth is the golden period for storing the mind with wise thoughts and sayings." Every parent knows how the reading-book remains in memory when Macaulay and Irving slip out of mind.

BOOKS AND COMMENTS.

Tander, translated by Lucy H. Hooper, and HE NABOB is the latest work of Alphonse

published by Estes & Lauriat. Daudet, in his minute character painting and in his transcription of scenes from the actual life of Paris, exceeds in this work any thing we have yet had from him. He is to literature what Meissonier is to art--a worker who gains his successes through a fidelity to detail which betrays at every step his unflagging industry. His ease in writing, and the method upon which he builds up his chapters, remind one more of Balzac than do the works of any other modern writer; his realism, too, cruel and unfaltering at all times, recalls Balzac's greatest pen-pictures of weak and erring human nature. M. Jansoulet, his central figure, originally a poor, ignorant fellow from the South of France, who goes to Tunis by chance, and makes a colossal fortune there, is, when the story opens, installed in Paris with his millions, and his title of "Nabob," bestowed upon him by his admirers, his Levantine wife, and his circle of friends and enemies, who prey equally upon his fortune and his confidence. All the principal characters revolve around him. Dr. Jenkins, the famous quack, with his "arsenical globules ;" Felicia Ruys, the celebrated sculptress; the Duke de Mora, said to be a prominent figure of the late Empire; Moessard, the journalist, editor of Financial Truth, and the lover of a "real queen," and so on. With the exception of three or four unimportant personages, every man and woman is preying upon or deceiving his or her neighbor. This is said, however, to be a true picture of Parisian life, and if disheartening somewhat to read of, fascinates and enthralls by the consummate art with which it is presented. The novel is certainly the most powerful Daudet has written, and will, no doubt, be one of the sensations of the season. The author is fortunate in having Mrs. Hooper as his translator, as she renders both the spirit and the letter of his work with an ability few translators possess.

COL WARING's new book "The Bride of the Rhine" (Osgood) is pronounced by the Hartford Courant, of which Charles Dudley Warner

is critic, a record of one the most fascinating journeys we have ever read. The writer, accompanied by his wife, took a row-boat at Metz and rowed down the Mosel to Koblenz, in September, 1875. The travellers rowed or floated down what appears to be a river of Paradise, day after day, through the vineyards, past castles and ruins, and a continuous succession of most picturesque medieval towns. Either the writer has deceived us by his most charming style and by his capacity for the appreciation of all that is lovely and quaint, or this voyage is the most delightful experience The one can have on the planet. author's skillful pen has made us feel what he felt; the pictures let us see what he saw.

CYPRUS.-In the Jan. number of the Contemporary Review, Mr. R. S. Poole, the distinguished antiquarian and scholar, reviewing the discov eries in Cyprus and at Mycenæ, says of General Di Cesnola's researches: “I cannot take leave of them without congratulating General Di Cesnola on the excellent manner in which he has made his record. Much as Englishmen must regret that his collection has gone to America, they can at least study it in the beautiful engravings of the work, though it were well worth a voyage to New York to examine the treasures in detail."

JAMES FREEMAN CLARKE'S little book published by the American Unitarian Association, containing six lectures on "Essentials and NonEssentials in Religion" is already, says an exchange, proving a word in season to many inquiring minds. From Georgia comes a pleasant testimony of its usefulness; and in one Ohio community it has wrought a wholesome change in the temper of one class of religious people. It is a good book for the Unitarians to give away or keep. Price in cloth, 50 cents; pap

er 25 cents.

LIFE AND WORDS OF CHRIST.-In wealth of information upon many of the facts and phenomena which gave to the world the aspect which it wore in the time of Christ, and its peculiar tone to the society in which he moved, Dr. Geikie's "Life and Words of Christ," we believe, says the (London) Literary World, “stands alone among the many lives of Christ which have been published in England during recent years not excepting Dr. Farrar's remarkable and popular work."

Of all readers now before the public, says the Christian Register, "Hudson's Classical English Reader" (Ginn & Heath) is incomparably the first-a manual of choice literature; a library in epitome. It is indeed the work of a It is very doubtful if there is any volume of four hundred and fifty pages more fully crammed with the best results "of noble minds."

BOOKS AND READING.

UGAR-PLUMS AND SOLID MEALS.-"Well, I have profited too much by novels to say hard things about them. I recognize absolutely the truth that the finest work of the literature of our time has taken that form. I think there is no English book of the last twenty years that has a better chance with posterity than George Eliot's novels. But when I see the trash which boys and girls have in their hands in the street

cars, when I see what people buy and devour in traveling, when I see what lies about on people's tables and seashore piazzas and mountain hotels, I know I must speak of the worst temptation for young people let loose from school. There is no such enemy to firm and intelligent study as the unrestricted habit of devouring novels. Hold that in check, therefore, from the beginning. From the beginning, determine that for every hour of novel-reading in a day, you will read for an hour something of some worth besides the excitement of the hour. "The old ladies who sent to the Dorchester Public Library a half century ago, used to send for a "sermon-book and another book," leaving to the librarian to choose. I wish their granddaughters to-day, when they send for a novel, would send for "another book" as well, and never would take novel number two till the other book" had been well and wisely digested. The analogy of sugar-plums is perfect. Woe to the boy or girl who eats candy all the time; because a little sweetmeat has its place, and a very good place. The solid meals of the day have their place, too."-From E. E. Hale's What Career? (Roberts.)

'HILDREN'S READING. --When children are thirteen years old, we should buy them almost no books written especially for girls and boys. Of course, exception must be made in favor of a few books by the best modern writers for young people, whose influence is, on the whole, so beneficial; it would be wrong to deprive the young folks of the combined pleasure and profit of their perusal. But any intelligent child of thirteen, whose mind is not already vitiated by an acquired love of trash and sensationalism, will read with delight Cooper, Irving, Dickens, the "Vicar of Wakefield," Scott's prose and poetry, the descriptive poems of Whittier, Longfellow, Bryant, etc. From the best fiction it is an easy step to the lighter histories, travels, and biography. You will hear your child saying of Irving's "Life of Washington," Franklin's "Autobiography," Prescott's "Conquest of Mexico," Kane's "Arctic Adventures." or Livingstone's "African Travels," "Why, this is as interesting as a story! Then you know your point is gained. A taste for good reading being created, trash is no longer a temptation.-Golden Rule.

IBLE ILLUSTRATIONS.-A reader from La fayette, Ind., asks: What is the most practical and best work on 'illustrations' for a Sunday-school teacher, and for use in the prayer-meeting? I notice Foster's Cyclopædia' advertised in the Times. Is it the best? or is there a cheaper work that would answer as well?" Foster's "New Cyclopædia of Prose Illustrations," in two series, each complete in itself, published by Thomas Y. Crowell, 744 Broadway, New York, at $5 each, is quite an extensive and well-arranged collection of facts, fables, and other illustrative teachings. “Illustrative Gatherings," by the Rev. G. S. Bowes, is a smaller and different compilation, with fewer anecdotes, and a larger share of miscellaneous quotations, perhaps better suited for prayer-meeting uses. This also is published in two series, at $1.75 each, by Messrs. Perkinpine and Higgins, Philadelphia. Doctor Newton's volumes of sermons to children, published by the Carters, are full of helpful illustrations. -Sunday-School Times.

BOOKS, ETC.

HE BOOKSELLERS' BILL.-How insignificant an item of household expenditure is the bookseller's bill in a middle-class family! A man who is making £1,000 a year will not think of spending £1 per week on books. If you descend to a lower grade of income, the purchase of a book at all is an exceptional occurrence, and then it will rarely be a book of pure literature. The total population of the United Kingdom is more than thirty-three millions. The aggregate wealth of this population is manifold more than it was one hundred and fifty years ago, but the circle of book-buyers, of the lovers of literature, is certainly not larger, if it be not absolutely smaller. One reason which may be assigned for the book dearth among families of small means is want of space. Room in this country is now become very costly. A family of £1000 a year in a town probably pays out £100 a year as rent. A heavy tax! And what do you get for it? A hutch in which you can scarce put up your family or breathe yourself. You have literally no room for books. This, I grant, is a too true description of the town dwelling. But it is not altogether an account of why you are without a library. A set of shelves, thirteen feet by ten feet, and six inches deep, placed against a wall, will accommodate near one thousand volumes 8vo. Cheap as books now are, a well-selected library of English classics could be compressed into less room than this, were the companionship of books felt by you to be among the necessaries of life.-Mark Pattison in the Fortnightly Review.

NOTHING can supply the place of books.— Channing.

BOOKS are men of higher nature, and the only men who speak aloud for future times to hear.-Mrs. Browning.

No law binds us to read all; but the more we can take in and digest, the better-liking must the mind needs be.-Bishop Hall.

As good almost kill a man as kill a good book; he who kills a man kills a reasonable creature, but he who destroys a good book kills reason itself.-Milton.

READING maketh a full man; confidence, a ready man; histories make men wise; poets, witty; the mathematics, subtile; natural philosophy, deep; moral, grave; logic and rhetoric, able to contend.-Bacon.

"For out of the olde fieldes, as men saythe,
Cometh all this newe corn fro yere to yere,
And out of olde bookes in good faithe
Cometh all this newe science that men lere."
