We are glad to hear it, aswe are sure that it
will be a work of great value.
AN ERRONEOUS CHARGE.

In speaking of the treatment of American
travellers in Austria-the manner in which they
are watched by the authOrities-and the occa-
siOnal outrages committed upon them-the Ma
tiOnal Era says:
"South Carolina would not be half 80 mode
rate She allows no one who has denounced her
domestic institutions to travel within her
borders He is promptly warned out of the
State, or summarily punished, according to the
code of Judge Lynch. We all grow very indig
nant at the unfriendly conduct of Austria, but
that South Carolina should Lynch an American
citizen for opinions sake is deemed a matter Of
course
We think that the editor of the National Era
is in error in supposing that holding the opinion
that slavery is not justifiable or that it should
be abolished, would subject person TO be
Lynched in South Carolina for the mere enter
tainment Of such an opinion. The people Of the
South are Indifferent as TO opinions entertained
by abOlitionists, so long as those holding them
do not undertake to disseminate them in the
slave States-Bdit'more Clipper.
We are not mistaken. DR. w. H. Brisbane a
native of South Carolina, being citizen and
stakeholder there emigrated thence some years
ago, and became an anti-slavery man-mode-
rate frank, and manly. Having occasion, n
year or two since, to return to his native State
on some business he was threatened with vio-
lence, which was about to be inflicted on him
when he left. And yet he was not engaged in
disseminating his views there but South Caro-
lima intended to punish him for opinions sake
The editor OF the Era seeks through the press
to disseminate his sentiments against slavery in
this country, and oppression everywhere, among
his countrymen, and has certainly spoken with as
much severity of Austrian Despotism as that of
South Carolina; but we are very sure he would
rather take his chance for civil treatment in
Vienna than in Charleston, even were his paper
well known in the former place
u we are not misinformed, Senator Smith.
OF Connecticut was obliged last winter TO
make precipitate retreat from Charleston. the
rumor having got about in that city that he was
a relative of Gerritt Smith No; the mere fact
that citizen Of Washington, or Of any city
north Of il has rendered himself well known
by the advocacy of anti-slavery opinions would
subject him to suspicion and violence in most
parts Of South Carolina We are sorry 10 saw
it but she is certainly more intolerant than
Austria.

Major Stevens discusses in this volume with
candOr and ability the campaigns of Generals
Scott and Taylor, and the merits of their re-
spective plans. His main object as stated by
himself in appearing before the public, is to
testify to the services of those heroic officers and
soldiers who were, in his judgment deprecated
in the work of Major Ripley We think he
has accomplished his object dispassionately,
and in a style not calculated to wound the self

CVR1s1s IN HADEs. A poem by W W. Lord. New
York D. Appleton Co. For sale by R. Farm
ham, Washington, D. c.
It is tradition countenanced by some of the
Fathers that Christ descended into Hades
for the purpose Of releasing the souls of the
saints held in bondage from the time of Abel
and also into hell, so as to assert his supremacy
over Satan and his principalties and powers
This tradition is the theme of Mr.. Lords
epic, which is divided into eight books.
The first book contains description of hell,
and of Satan Immediately after his overthrow
by Christ on the Mount His despair, the dscon-
tent of the Internal host and the beginning dis
sessions between the angelic and human devils
constitute the principal topics.
IN book second we are introduced to the in
ierior Paradise or Hades, where the Saints are
waiting in expectation and prayer for their dis
enthralment Suddenly Christ descends and
the empyrean rings with hOsannahs.
Book third is a description of a tremendous
battle between the human and angelic powers
IN He'll Cor the mastery battle terminated
by divine interpOsition.
In book the fourth, Christ explains to the
Saints why his coming has been so long delay
ed and announces his purpose to visit Hell.
Book fifth opens with grand consultation
Of the angel-devils who have been rather worst
ed in their late conflict Baal advises to nick
their hlnts and try again; but the majority re-
solve on stratagem. The men-devils are ha-
rangued by Cecrops, who advises them to send
an embassy to the Titans for help.
Book sixth is an account of the embassy and
its reception
In book seventh, we are entertained with
general melee He'll is turned upside down.
and fell discOrd reigns-just the crisis chosen
Tor the descent of Christ, which takes place in
the eighth book, in which the invincible power
OF Infinite Purity without the thunderbolts of
omnlpotence, is the theme of the poet
II Mr.. Lord has failed in his bold attempt to
deal with the things of Tartarus, he may con-
sole himself with the reflection that even the
genus Of Dante and Milton was taxed almost
% exhaustion in the attempt to give them form
and significance
