MEMOIRS OF REV JOSEPH BUCKMTNSTER, ID
AND OF HIS SON, REV. JOSEPH STEVENS

! Reed X Fields Sold by G P Putnam.
Upon the appearance of the first edition
Of this admirable biography, we had no opportu-
nifty of expressing our sense OF It's exquisite and
touching beauty. 1t Is devoted to the memory
of The younger Buckmlnster, the brilllancy of
whose early genius and exalted character has
scarcely faded IN any degree from the city OF his
adoption and of his father, a man OF rare natu.
raj endowments, who filled wide sphere of ac-
ton and held distinguished rank among the
clergy OF New-Hampshire. Seldom has such an
afectonate and reverent tribute of hlal and sis
terly devotion been justified and IN no case, that
we remember, has such delicate task been per-
| formed with so much truthfulness, modesty, and
unaffected grace. Without repeating the nara
tive which Mrs. Lee presents OF her father and
brother. (iew readers are not to some extent ac-
quainted with their histery,) we shall merely en-
rich our columns with some of its delightful PIC
lures, promising that the whole volume has sell
com, If ever, been surpassed IN genuine interest
by any American biography.
