Just ard loveabe animal the lion, meanwhile '"eg-
gravatlng his voice" and roaring "Gke sucking

These were the uniavorable circumstances in
which the second work appeared. The public mind
was in an unnatural state. But it has passed away,
and the now increasing sale proves that Mr. Lester
and his books are regarded with feelings more in
accordance with their real merit
These volumes belong not to the light literature OF
the day. They are not exhausted by one rapid pc
rusal They have permanent value, derived from
the facts they contain illustrating the condition of
the foremost nation of the earth The statistical In
formation has been gathered from wide field, and
selected from the highest authorities OF the Kingdom.
The startling statements embodied IN these works
have been assumed as tue, and reasoned from as
admitted truth by the best writers and speakers OF
England.
We hesitate not to say that they contain mass oil
information undeniaby authentic, In regard to the
British empire, which no other American work con-
talns. There IS no power on earth whose exact po-
lltlcal and religious condition we are so much con-
cerned to know, as that OF England, and we are ac-
quainted with no American books 30 well calculated
to disseminate this knowledge among the mass Of
people those whose merits we are discussing.
We have said nothing Of their literary merits, be-
cause the drapery the least important feature OF
books like these. When critic can find no impor-
tant thought in book, he will naturally turn his
attention to the style; and when even the style has
no merit, and yet the book must needs be noticed,
he praise the beauty OF the typography, and the
elegance of the binding. We think that those who
have read these books have thought little OF the Ian
guage at the time. Their minds were occupied with
the subject, not with the words and yet II would
not b. easy to name the same number OF pages which
are enriched with more sparkling gems even OF
STYLE when philosophlc views and stirring thoughts
are conveyed In more brilliant language.

colored and magnifed, and when il was fiaaly de-
clared that petitions had been spurned from the
foot of the throne, that word expressed the real feeE
ing Of the Government Of Britain.
When the war Of the revolution commenced, the
Americans were treated al II they had no claim to
the privileges OF honorable warfare, or even the
common courtesies OF life; while an unlntentlonal
error on our part, was at once blazoned abroad as
evidence OF our barbarity.
At the burial OF General Frazier, for example,
when General Winsow fired upon the funeral pro-
cession not knowing its character, Burgoyne says
there "a mute but expressive mixture OF sensi-
bility and indignation upon every countenance. He
forgot to mention that Wnslow, with the true gal
lantry Of generous enemy, did not discharge one
shottcd cannon after he knew the truth, but fired
minute guns in honor OF his foe, during the remain
He whose sensibilities and indignation were so
aroused by mistake thus instantly and nobly cor
rected had forgotten his own Indian proclamation;
his hired barbarans procured for the purpose, I'M
blushingly avowed, of turning them loose upon w0-
men and children; he had forgotten Jesse Nc
Crea, and the internal barbarities psrpetrated BY
Baum and Breyman's troops ON the march to Ben
nIngton.
England may not choose to remember but what
American will ever forget the accursed prison ships
of the revolution, where she crushed the life out
from 30 many thousands Of the bravest hearts OF
our country, with cruelty unmngled with ons
manly or generous emotion, expressive only of the
mean bitterness of hatred gloatng over the agonies
of il victim. Who that has drawn his life from
the bosom OF an American mother, that heard a
countryman relate what our sailors and soldiers OF
the last war endured IN that Dartmoor Prison, will
ever forget though religion should teach TO forgive.
These and other countless unrlghted and unacknow-
lodged wrongs, have sunk 30 deep into the Amerl-
can heart that they cannot be obllteraed; Inc me,
mory fthcse things, or the true cause winch would
rally the whole nation as one man in that conflict
with Britain, which Mr.. Alison complaccntly pre-.
diets, and whose victories he has already by antici-
patton enjoyed; stepping IN IMAGINATION from the

cord with the spirit OF these books, and this fact
enables US to predict for them hereafter wide and
permanent popularity.
These are two points of view from which we may
regard the character and tendency of these volumes.
We are not allowed to consider them az containing
a wanton and mlschlevous attack upon neighbOr-
ing nation--such they are not. Nor 10 It right to
believe them written in spirit OF revenge for
wrongful and provoking attacks upon ourselves. =
We are at liberty however, to suppose that one pur-
pose OF our author was TO strike blow in defence
Of own country and Institute ms, SO repeatedly
and wickedy assailed. II was In this light that
they were viewed and welcomed, if we mistake
not, by the great mass OF our people.
But there is another, aud tar higher object,
which we believe the author had In his minds eye,
and with which in view his book should ever be
studied. In the grand march OF nations towards
their distant goal England stands in the front rank.
She is, therefore, the great exempar OF modern
civilization; and her present condition Will but help
US TO form opinion to what the result OF THIS,
authors controlling purpose; and he who has not
discovered II, and who sees only an attack on Eng
land, has not fathomed the meaning OF the writer.
Assuming, then, the existence OF this double
purpose, two questions present themselves ior our
attempt should be made to parry the attacks OF
England, though, in 90 doing, the sword was made
10 enter her own bosoml
In answer to this question, we ask, what has

point, to which we wish now to confine our atten-
tion, is, what has been her conduct toward us Z

ellis do not intend to bring forward PROPOSE

to say, at the ballot boxes, whether or not tav-
erns shall be licensed in their respective neigh

If The Councils desire tolessen the expenses OF

in suppressing grog shops. Il is false sys-

where he endeavored to "ring in" by telling
the squire that he had met with him before,
and found him remarkably fine fellow-free

been transferred from his hotel He had
travelled as much as Malte Brun, and had
/" rung out" Of every scrape, but acknow-
ledged that the party who restricted.his liberty
on this occasion, were too hard for him. He
apologized for his rakish appearance, saying
that his harness had been whitened by con-
tact with the walls, but that one Of the watch
man had, with friendly hand, curried him
down with broom. He was released on the
payment Of fine by friend, whom he ''rung
in' for that purpose, and gave security for his
future good behavior A short time after
