The Japan Times of September 5 contains the !allowing: Ca the night of the 25th ult. arrived the • triiie from Hskodate, with news of the occurrence there ,ingular and someviLst mysterious circumstance. On ltsh inst. a foreign-built barque. with • full poop, • from 350 to 400 tons, came into that harbour from Jrubti. whence Flie had been brought by Japanese pilots. • , as an old ship and in a very dilapidated condition, I - , :talhint masts gone, and all rigging in disorder and i.•:tepair. She - had only two boats. No name, ▪ 't papers, nor other means of identification • il,overable. Off the quarter the name had been • i fromtlie boats remaining, it had also been erased. • tie of the bells was the name Bertha, but this, under :r.onuitance of the evident intention to conceal her • ::r.tc, can hardly be regarded as the name of the :hough it may afford a clue to her b re o c a crition •hi 11.0 side of such a bell be traced. On were • .two Chinamen. common coolie*, not sailors, all pro : -irg goorance of the English language. Through a • :iwc-e interpreter, the account of the men ou board a - nisi:e out to be that the vessel was Chinese owned, t she had left Macao about seventy days previously chow, with an European captain and officers, to • I:Lieber of five. and with fifty Chinese sailors, of 1., in they were the ii remainder, eight having died ropeans. they raid. had ab andoned the ship dur ;:.: 3 ,ale of wind, tokiug with them two boats, the for which stood empty. From another source of salon we are told that they reported themselves as I..cuip. left Macao for Lima in 1 ebruary or March. It is I necessary to ,av that this statement was received a.l. incredulity. A thorough examination of ship and aas proceeding when the Sunrise left Hakodate on inst., and the following are the discoveries which had then been made. Seventeen of the men bad coolie contracts, numbered irregularly, the highest number being ffint. They were written in Sinish, and were nude out for the Italian barque Proridenza. Their times were from May to July, 1867. Many articles of European make were found; • trunk nearly new, with canvass corer marked Lima, Peru, track as might belong to a supercargo ; some hildren's boots, a carpet stained with blood, and a quan t-y of European clothing of good quality, shirts, guern seys, trousers, ice. The Chinamen were using European i.oking utensils and knives and forks, while of ordinary Chins* coolies' cooking is very few were found. In the hold was a quantity of - hoop iron, some gunny and a little flour. There was no evidence whatever of the presence on board of any Chinaman above the lowest clans—no China fittings in the cabin, such as • Chinese captain, owner, or supercargo would have, nor any Chinese clothes of value. The floor of the cabin had evidesity been lately scraped. During the examination it was acciden tally dierrovered that among the forty-two men were a couple of interpreter', though when the vessel was first boarded all pretended to be quite ignorant of any language tut their own, except one, who spoke • little pidgm English. These two were remarked to be laughing toge ther at tome observations made in English in their pre ethce, and on being taxed with the fact that they under ?, od what was said, acknowledged that they were inter irtters, sad when the Sunrise left were assisting in the examination, under check of the Cantonese orig inally act ing for the authorities. We dun receive before we stay again,bro doubt, further information which may clear up the mystery from this affair. Forty-two men will hardly keep a secret, if there be one which would bang any of them ; for men haste to betray, when they fear to be betrayed, and if the case be properly conducted, there should he little difilculy in getting the evidence of some s4unst the rest. Of course the hypothesis is that • dreadful crime, or perhaps an act of that rude justice which is called revenge, has been committed. These Jaen may be the survivors of some frif f fitful stniggle, like those of which too many coolie ships have been the scene. Their own etate e:ent of the European crew deserting them must be of course rejected at once. Five men would not take :way two bests, nor would European sailors abandon a ship in a gale of wind which had suffered so little as this. Then the Chinamen are not sailors. They helplessly crited to the coast near Nambu, and were taken up . to Dukodate by Japanese pilots. The vessel and her ragging taus in such a state as no sailor would have allowed them tc , go to, and altogether she had the appearance of a vessel left, far at sea, in charge of an ignorant set of landsmen, and which bad by accident of currents and winds drifted to a shore. The presence of a quantity of European clothes and other articles unaccounted for and certainly not likely to be on board a Chinese (mixed ship, also makes against the clew's story, as do also the coolie contract papers. Some seamen's accounts have also be. n found, made out in Italian, and the supposition tele:Hug the vessel in Hakodate—• natural one enough —ice that she is the Providensa, that she left Macao for WADS port on the West Coast of America some time about J.ly, 1867, with at least 300 coolies on board. That the peseerigers rose upon the crew, overpowered them, and killed them all, losing doubtless a number of tl.eir own force in the struggle, and afterwards from sccunes That, ignorant of naviga tion, they steered the thiptsck to the east, having noted the steering to have been r :ways weeterly ; but, set up by currents, struck the coast of jaw instead of China. The absence of the two boats may be accounted for either by supposing that pert of the Chinamen preferred taking their chance in them, or that they were lost in bad weather. What has to be dis covered is China is the recent existence of such a ship as the Prervidenza, and when and under what circumstances the lift the China seas. The following letter in the Overland China Nail gives additional information : —" Sir,—ln sour issue of this day ;sou refer to the suppo.ed coolie mutiny on board the Pro vident*, Captain - Nattini, and conclude by saying, ' 1 have received such information as leads me to think that there is no doubt that the ill-fated ship is the Provi dt mac' I much regret to say such is really the case, and that another coolie tragedy has to be added to the list. 11. e following are the particulars I have received offi cially :—• On the 19th August last, a ship with topgallant and topmast gone, without any Europeans on board, and with no flag or papers, and with the name taken away, tritered the harbour of Hakodadi. The Japanese autho rities took charge of her, and then referred the matter to the consuls ; 47 Chinese who were found on board were arrested, and they declared the Europeans had, ccder 'trees of weather, deserted the ship in two boats; r , me mintracts were found on their persons, which bore the name of the Italian ship Providenza. On this Mr. lutzow, the acting Italian consular agent, took charge ei the vessel, and on closer examination found a LeU with the name of Bertha, 1836,' engraved tpna it, and mark. of blood on the saloon and acme doors. No boats or cannons were to be found.' There are the particulars I have for the vresent 2 toeived. The Italian ship Providenza, Captain Nattini, r!cared from this port with 28 Europeans as crew, all told, and 382 Chinese coolies for Callao. The captain, who 11,th here when the Theresa put back, said he would take all neasseary precautions to guard himself against a aimilai tragedy to fiat enacted on board the Th eresa. His ,16, 1 children were not on board ; they are in 1. 1 2 , 9• It remains to be seen what has really hapi teed. From the fact of no boats having been found, thei sal twin and his crew may yet turn up. The former Tuactice of ailinwilig a coolie ship to lay in the roads for two or months with those wretches on board, in riirlit and yet closely confined on board, allowed thee' docbqess much time to form their plans to regain, 1,,g1, seas, their lost liberty.-1 am. dear air, your rlasl rat • BADAO DO CEBC/11 4 Italian Consul at Nairn, September 11, 1868.

Mr. TnerzOmit thicsourse of his address, said that a oonseevative aftad would be impanel,. After VMS strongly of the conduct of " the are " in sent parliament, Kr. Trollop' continued :—My idea of Kt; will be We i that I shall conceive =yarn called upon to give Mr. fillaa6ne my undeviating support (great cheer mg) , for if, as! firmb , and mod truly believe, Mr. Glad stone horrified to the Queen's counsel as her prime Waldo*. —(renewed cheering)—l declare myself will*q to give to him my undeviating support. (Applause.) When I know so much of s roan as I dnof him, and when I see him in the position of Prime Minister, Imy to myself—lt will be. my du to you, if railed upm, to give him my constant and fir m support. (Gnat cheering.) Of Mr. Gladstone I will my that for public honesty he never had a superior —(applause)—for public efficiency in our times he cer tainiy Runner had an equal. (Renewed applause.) If he has a fault, it is that he is too economical, but it is because be wishes to lessen the burdens on the shoulder, of you all. If you could open that man's heart you would find written • upon it a desire for economy in public life, and that for the rake of relieving the burdens of the poor—(applause)—and no man in our time has done so much to relieve the burdens of the pox. These is hardly a comfort you enjoy, and there is hardly an article you consume which is not cheaper than it would have been if Mr. Gladstone had never worked for you. (Ap plause.) On the subject of the Irish church I don't think there is any difference of opinion among you all. lam quite sure there is no difference of opinion as to the future between Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Disraeli. lam quite sure they have both made up their minds that the Irish church must go. And lam sure of this, if you, and other boroughs like you, will give Mr. Dis raeli the capability-- which I am sure you will not —and the power to remain in office, you will find that very shortly he will go over the most beautiful conjuring trick. (Laughter.) It will be " 'merle pocus, aprare round, tly away, come again, up and down, turn a soiner rault, come down on his feet," and present you with a most beautiful bill to disestablish and ilistusdow the Irish t Lurch, and very likely to abolish Protestantism gene rally. (Laughter, and long-continued cheering.) Ho will take that " awkward squad " to school, and drill them again, and they will come out, not hlps himself, . jaunty and smiling as he always is, but with long faces, and terrible dolor written ou ell their countenances, bat they will have learnt their lemon. (Laughter.) There fore, as for the Irish Church, I don't care which party is in Loner but I wish it could go under our bands, not theirs. In forcible terms Mr. Trollops then showed that the Irish Church was a great injustice to the Irish people, and contended that but for that grievance the people would be content. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE NE4R COVIDITET. SIXTEEN RICKS contrmED. At a lato hour on Saturday night, one of the meet destructive fires which has occurred in this neigh bourhood for some time past, broke out upon the premiere of Mr. Hollick, farmer, of Baginton, near Coventry. A mounted messenger was at once despatched to Coventry for assistance, and arrived there at 1 o clock ou Sunday morn ing. The members of the Coventry Volunteer Fire Brigade and Sun Fire Brigade at once got their engines in readi ness, and proceeded to the scene of the conflagration. By this time, however, the tire bad done considerable damage, no less than sixteen ricks having fallen a prey to the devouring element. Five others ware on fire, and to them the attention of the firemen was at once directed. After laboaring iscemantly for many hone r they suc ceeded in saving two ricks and the dwaing-kones. Portions of five other ricks were also saved. The engines end men returned to Coventry between 9 and 10 o'clock yesterday morning. The fire Is supposed to be the work of an incendiary. The property is insured in the Bun That fine old steamship the Great Britain arrived at Melbourne on the 4th September, after • fine run of 66 days, the shortest passage but one recorded of her. ENCOUNTER Wall A BEAR AT BELLEVUE—On Saturday morning one of the bears at Bellevue Gardens escaped from its pit, and so severely bit one of the keeper that he is not impeded to recover from the injuries be re ceived. Henry Scott, a man about 60 years of age, living at Villa Inn, Hyde-road, a keeper of wM beasts in the ern ploy of Mesas. Jenninon, was engagedlia deseftg the bears' den, and when doing so, having eceenioa to Mt owe of the sliding doors, a large black bear made its escape. The animal, which appeared to be very furious, made an attempt to seine the keeper's son, • boy named Walter Scott, who was standing by, and chased him into an adjoining greenhouse. The boy closed the door, which was forced by the bear, when the father overtook it, boldly laid hold of the infuriated besot, and attempted to throw it on its back. He failed in his attempt, and was himself wailed by the beer, which bit him severely on the left thigh. Another keeper ng up at the time, hit the animal on the skull with asipade, with the effect of snimmg it, and before it could recover it was again con fined. The wounded keeper was conveyed to the infir mary. He had suffered severely from loos of blood, and he now lies in a very precarious state.—Yeas ter ZUNII*T. TEX EARTRINTAKZ AT PERU AND ECUADOR.— The contributions to the Sufferers' Relief Pond during the past week have exceeded 4,0001., including LOOM. from Mr. - William Gibbs. The Bishop of Durham has contri buted 10/. It is satisfactory to know that the committee has received, through Lord Stanley, the promise of active assistance from the diplomatic agents in the distributions of the sum collected. He lordship has just forwarded interesting official despatches from these gentlemen to the treasurer. CO-OFEB.ATION IN TILE laos TRADIL—An initia tive step towards solving the capital and labour question in the iron trade was taken about two years ago, and the Drinkfield Iron Company started. Though the greater part of the shareholders was composed of operative iron workers, the company was a limited one, and therefore not purely co-operative. In order to make it more popu lar it has been determined to adopt the 00-operative prin ciple, and a meeting WM , held at Darlington on Saturday to give the liquidator, Mr. S. Richardson, full powers to wind up the old company, and transfer the property to • new one. Resolutions were passed to this end. The question was decanted as to what the relations of the ebareholdere and the workmen in the new company should be in regard to the division of . profits. It was thought that the pure co-operative principle of giving • proportion of the profits made to the workmen should be adopted rather than that the principle followed by Mama Briggs and Co. should be copied, by which 10 per teak should be first divided amongst the shareholders. and the remainder equally between the shareholders and workmen. INSULT TO A PRUSSIAN CHARGE D'AFFAIRE/I. The latest news front Japan gives some paraculare of an insult offered to the Prussian charge d'affeiree, Von Brandt, who when driving through the main street of the Japanese town with his tette, or groom, • Japanese, behind him, was stopped by the retainers of Higashi Kum Saki no Clnujo, an assistant secretary for foreign affa f irs, and his belle compelled to alight and prostrate himse in the dust before the feudal noble. Von Brandt was com pelled to submit at the moment, although loudly protest ing, and has since demanded and received from the Japanese minister an apology. THE TRArterr OF MERCURY.—The transit of Mercury, which takes place on November 6, will be care rully watched by all our best observers. A large number of amateurs will also take part, no doubt, in observing the interesting phenomenon. The construction of cheap telescopes, which yet are capable of doing useful work, has largely increased the number of those who will be able to watch the transit. And, in particular, the recent in vention of silvered glass mirrors by the German optician Steinbeil, and the construction in England of a form of reflecting telescope, which is far more convenient to ass than the ordinary telescope, has made amateur observa tion at once more effective and more pleasing than of old. It used to require that a person should really have his heart in the subject of astronomy,. to enable him unflinch ingly to fix himself in all the various and awkward posi tions which ordinary telescopic observation requires. Very few could endure with comfort the attitudinising of the observing-room when elevated objects had to be )raked at. But now that an observer can obtain an in strument which is not only cheaper than the old-fashioned refractory% but enables him to observe all objects what ever with his eyes directed horizontally, many, who would otherwise have beeu deterred from astronomy, are found to take a daily increasing interest in the observation of celestial objects. We trust that no unfavourable circum stance of weather, or the like, will prevent the approach ing transit from being well seen by the numerous OINIINVOIII who will be on the watch for the phenomenon. —Cern/silt iterisisos for November.

"An American in Dresden makes known some singular facia in a letter to the nines. The American colony in that city formed the majority of the oongrega tion at the English church, and contributed largely to its funds, so that the church came to be called " the Engtith and American church." Under these cimumstanoes the clergyman thought it but proper to introduce a prayer for the President of the United States, after that for the Queen of England and teethe King of Saxony. The first tisne this was done, a gentleman interrupted the service with the exclamation, " I thought this was an English church !" On the other days persons left the building when the new prayer was read. The clergyman adhered to his practice, and considerable animosity was roused against him. At length a portion of the congregation seceded, and contrived to obtain authority from the Bishop of London for building a new church to be strictly " English," and, as it seems, high church. Soon, however, the Americana found their way into the new congregation, and the same story was enacted, although with a different conclusion. The prayer for the President was introduced, some of the English objected, and the clergyman gave way. The Times is confident that if the Bishop of Lordon had known the circum stances, instead of authorising a new church, he would have administered a severe rebuke to such unchristian and almost undeilleed Jealousy.

But in those districts where it is cus tomary, as in Worcestershire and Herefordshire, to expose great quantities of fruit, and in Prance, Italy, Germany. and other foreign countries, there are no complaints of theft. Near Malvern, apples and pears grow in profusion in places open to all the world ; not only in the orchards and fi elds, but in the hedgerows which bound turnpike roads, and on the strips of waste which border them. "Is this fruit never stolen r was • question ut to • native of the place. " Oh, no sir," he answered , ' it is very plenti ful." Make it " plentiful," accustom the people to see it exposed, encourage them to expose their own fruit in a similar way, give them,—that as, give to individuals of them,—if mammary, a charge over a certain quantity of trees, and a share in the prate which accrue from them, or some of thew and yore need have no fear that your fruit will be plundered.

There is a dory, which the Spaniards themselves are food of telling, that when Ferdinand M., after his death at Seville, which he bad conquered from the Moors, was brought int* communion with St. imp, the patron saint of Spain, he proceeded to ask boons for bee. " Fine climate.' , Granted. "Fertile soil, corn, wine, oil- &o.' • Granted. "Brave eons and beautiful daugh ters." Granted. " Good government ." " No, no, DO • three times, nine times, No!" exclaimed the saint, ledag all patience (as saints are apt to do) at the monstroaty or the demand : "Give Spain good goveninamt, and *eter one of the angels would leave heaven to live in it . ' The curious and depressing circumstance Is that the Spaniards should dwell comphmently sto rm this feature of their as national character, if government was not the beet, the sole security for every other good. It remains to be peen whether this cis Owrtio can be overoome by any amoun t o f reran or stimulant that the leaders of the present movement can bring to bear. They . are working weU togeiher tor. Their wand ambi tion Ins b een kept under.

There was eomnthing more. than the usual interest in the opening of the legal year to-day. Ind Chancellor received, atoording to a Wog-established custom, the Judges and the leading members of the bar at his privet* resident), Booth Keuringtoo, end thane proceeded to Westminster. ball, where for this day only and fora few" minutes ho takes his mat in what was the Court cf Chancery, but is now the Probate Court. Lord Cairns was accompanied to-day by a larger number of judges than any Lord Chaacelice who preceded him on the Woolsack. By an eat of last session the Gomm law judges were inereamed from fifteen to eighties, and the judgeships thee created were bestowed on Mr. Justice Hayes, Mr. Justice Brett, and Mr. Baron Clesaby, who formed part of the procession, and took their seats respectively in the Courts of queen's Beech. Comma lima, and Eadtequce. The resignation by the House of Commons of its privilege to try election petition, sad the tranideressee al that duty to the judges, was the cause of the increase is the judicial power of the country ; bat it does not appear that any arrangement has been made for assigning this function of trying election petitions to any par. ticular judges. When not engaged in this duty they will be available for the ordinary btu& sees of thin courts, end the unusual number of en justices may be seen in the same court. There was a larger attendance of the public in Westminster-hall on this occasion than ordinary, at tracted no doubt by the incense in the number of judges. There was also a large attendance of the members of the bar. The Lord Chancellor was thii first to arrive. He was followed by the Lord Chief JusU& and the other judges in regular order. The judges as they entered the hall pro. ceeded to their respective courts. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Coinniissiouor Winslow.)

WINDHAM. _ _ This was • sitting for dividend under the bankruptcy of the lute Mr. Windham, whcme clue will be well rerumn• bered in this and other courts. The unsecured debts proved against the estate were about 2,8a0/. ; and it was now reported that, some property having come in lately, a sum of about 1.4001. was available for dividend. The usual revolution was peered for dividing the amount sub ject to the payment of costs. Mr. Lawrence appeared for the assignees; Mr. Chidley and Mr. Bugg for creditors. DEEDS UNDER 7112 NEW AM. It may be interesting to the public to know that while the deeds registered in three days prior to the 11th Octo ber, when 'be new act came into operation, were upward. of 600. the number registered mince that period has been 12. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) The November general sessions of the peace for the , ounty of Middlesex commenced this morning at the S.A.. 'ions House, Clerkenwell-green, before the Assistnnt- Judge„ Mr. J. Payne, Deputy-Assistant Judge, and the following magistrates :-11r. Hughes Hughes, jun., thine ral Trerucithere, Mr. Baxter, Mr. Woolsey, Mr. tiodson, 31.1', Mr. Twentyman, Mr. Rankine, Mr. Warner, Mr. Brooking, &c. The calendar contains the names of 108 prisoners com mitted for trial, of whom W 2 are indicted for felony and 16 for misdemeanour. On the names of the grand jiffy being called over, two gentlemen connected with the War-office claimed exemp tion, on the ground that absence from their duties would be detrimental to the public service. One of them pro duced a letter from the chief of his department setting forth these facts. Wiekriiniant-judge said that this was no ground whatever of exemption, and it the government wished that their servants should be exempt from these duties they ought to bring in a bill for that purpose. lie ordered one to serve, and fined the other IW. ; but that fine would be remitted on his serving next sessions. lIPURIOTAT WATCH CHAIM. Charles Sarag;,2l,who was convicted last sessions of obtaining, by means of false pretences, from Charles Farley, the sum of 21., the mousse of Thomas Walter, with intend to defraud, w b is broug ht up for judgment. In this case, it a that the prisoner went to the prosecutor, a pawn , of Aldersgate-street, producing a chain, represented it to be gold, and wanted an advanoe corresponding with its supposed value upon it. This chain was thickly electro-plated with gold, and so well got-up that it deceived the shaman, and he advanced a sum of money upon it. It was afterwards found to be only base metal, and on the prisoner's second visit to the shop with a similar article he was given into custody. At the trial, the jury found him guilty, and as he said be had hitherto earned an honest tiring, the assistant-judge deferred passing sensence, to allow inquiries to be made about him. Yr. F. H. Lewis, who prosecuted the case at the trial, said that inquiries has been made since the lest session, and there was no truth in the statement that the prisoner bad been gaining hie hvelihood u • jeweller. He bad been living in the York-road in • single room, at 2s. 6d. • week, in the name of Charles Sara, and had just before been in the MEW neighbourhood Zl ns he same of Charles It was quite clear that the bad been made up for the purpose of fraud. The Assistant-sludge said these was no doubt these articles were made up for the purpose of defrauding the public, and the sentence upon him was imprisonment and bard labour for nine months. POLICE COURTS.--(T1118 DAY.) ILITILLOEDINANT CBE OP ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. 7 i :2w s poor, miserable looking woman, was at the bar, charged with attempting to drown berm f. Folios-constable Melees, 42 B, said that on Saturday night the defendant complained to him that her husband was illtreating her. The constable said that he would remain on the spot if she would go indoors and interfere if there was any necesn ot but she refused. Shortly afterwards be saw her w • with her husband. They were quarrelling, and he the hus band say. "lio and drown yourself." They were at this time in Cambridge-terrace, Chelsea, near the water, and she rushed towards the Thames, followed by her husband and witness. The former caught her, and they re turned to the door of their own house, when they had more words. Witness then spoke to her husband on his wife's behalf, and while he was doing so prisoner slipped from behind them and hastened to the river. She threw herself off the bank, and he was just in time to seize her by the foot, and with the greatest difficulty he held her by it until he procured assistance. kr. Arnold—What was her husband doing all this time I' . . . . I'ohceman—He was standing at the door without mak ing any effort to save her. He was drunk. She was sober. Defendant—Your worship, for 14 years my life has been • burden to me. Every Saturday night that comes round my husband gives me • hiding when he comes home. lam very sorry for what I did. liu.4band—l had a drop of drink on Saturday. Mr. Arnold—Hold your tongue, sir; the left you say the better. Priruner was remanded for a week. CENTRAL CRIMINAL corizz—(TMlll Dar.) A special session of the Central Criminal Court was opened this morning for the purpose of Axing the days for holding the sessions for the ensuing year. The following days were appointed :—Monday,Nov. 23, and December 14, 1868. In 1869—Monday, Jan. 11; Monday, Feb. 1 ; Monday, March 1; Monday, April 5 ; Monday, May 3; Monday, June 7; Monday, July 12; Monday, August 16; Monday, Sept. 20; and Monday, Oct. 25. NOVEL READINO.—In these days everybody reads novels. Now and again we hear the voice of a thoughtful or earnest man raised against this popular recreation. Mr. Carlyle or the Archbishop of York may endeavour to prove to us that we are dissipating our minds, wasting our time, and encouraging laxity and dif fumes, in our intellectual powers : but the preaching of the preacher is of no avail. Men are as labonous as ever they were. Our wives and daughters are more highly educated than were our mothers and grandmothers. We work, and pray, and ride, and dance, and gamble, and talk politics as assiduously as ever. But we all read novels —lawyers, divines, merchants, soldiers, sailors. ma rtial, politicians, and what not. There is hardly a man or a woman who can read who does not require that some amount of novel reading shall be printed for the delight of his or her leisure hours. And so much is learned from novels—so much of good and of evil—so very many of the details of everyday lift, are done honestly or dishonestly, selfishly or unselfishly, in a manner Di vine or diabolical, as the mind of the doer may have been operated upon beneficially or injuriously by the novelist's art, that the production and porseenion of good novels in stead of bad, that is of novels that will teach good lessons instead of novels that will teach bad lessons, is a matter of vital importance to the nation. We think that we are right in asserting that the novels of the day have more effect on the national mind than either the sermons or the poetry ; more probably than any other branch of literature with the exemplars of newspapers—even if we except them.— , 4f.
