These enterprising duodecimos are for sale
at Franck Taylor's. They are from the
hands Of that interesting publisher in Phila-
delphia, Mr.. j w. Moore, and do credit
to the printer.
Mysteries Of City Life is series Of Tales
founded upon the notes Of Home Mission
airy. They lay open the secret workings Of
the human heart, with nice discrimination
and sound Judgment In every city, scenes
are hourly enacted, that, if known and seen
BY the rest Of the world, would make the
rest Of the world very unhappy, il we were
not commanded to love our neighbor as our
self. Mr., Rees writes with a good deal Of
freedom and force, and we think he has i'm
proved in his style since he sent forth the
Nighthawk Papers. He possesses the rare
merit, in writer, OF attracting the reader
to him, and the reason is, that his purposes
are to teach the right and the moral. Tbs
reader cannot help being convinced OF the
purity of his motives, and this reflection lends
a charm to his treatment Of his subjects. II
is difficult to say, which is the best story Of
the book. They are all full Of interest
many Of them abound in intensity The
utility Of collecting these stray leaves from
the Worlds Book may he questioned by
some, but we think, that no man or woman
can fail to be wiser or feel more kindly fol
the nirmities of human nature, after he Of
she shall have read them.
Partners for Life, is veritable picture o
human affairs and is in Camilla Toulmin's
happiest strain, She writes always with
great care and fuency There is a poin
about her efforts that tells home to the feel.

not do Bulwer himself discredit.
There is an immense deal Of power in oul
American writers, but the great error they
fall into is the expenditure Of their power
upon trifes. Mr. Rees and Mrs. Toulmir
are not free from these defects On the
other hand, American writers are prone tc
indulge in pueriltcs, and the authors before
US exemplify this proneness in several parts
Of their works. But, serious as are these
defects, they by no means affect the genera

FoR SHAME.-On Wednesday evening last, as q
poor old unoffensiye colored oyster man was passing
Browns hotel, some Of the rowdy hackmen who
congregate in that vicinity, gave his oyster pail
kick which sent the contents swimming on the
pavement Poor old man, he saw In one moment the
result Of a hard days work, and by the sale Of
which, perhaps his starving family were to procure
bread for breakfast dashed from him; raising hid
hands In the attitude Of despair almost sufocated by
The swelling Of his heart he exclaimed iare goss ny
oyeters, gemen, will yon pay for dem7" Alas poor
old man the name "gsmenn did not apply TO them,
no. not even man, for they skunk off laughing heart
lily at the sorrow they had caused the old man
We would ask these hackmen one question; if any
person had taken knife and fort1a cut their har
ness, or their hacks the damage OF which to repair
would cost us much, and no moro than the amount
that the old darkeys oystera would have sold for,
would they haye considered 1t joke, would u have
been cause for mirth7 We hope these hackmen
will zee and read this merited reproof and In future
pay little more regard to that sacred law that
teaches us to do TO oihers as we would have them
do to us"
