The N. Y. Times furnishes us with the following in
reference to the personal appearance of this escaped
Irish exile, and his fathers family.
"Mr. NJ is about % years Of age, very corpulent
and his exposure to a southern gives him a dark
swarthy appearance. He that when he escaped
his fellow prisoners OBrien and Mitchell in good
health Mrs. Meagher unable TO accompany him
in mis- flight He declines make any statement
the by which he enabled to effect his escape,
il would probably compromise those who assisted
him.
We understand that Mr. M is in the enjoyment of
cellent health and that the travelling through South
America has tended invigorate rather than 10
fatigue him. He has, informed, abundant means
to enable him live comfortably His father is estima-
ted to be worth f7O0 OO0 and there but three chill

our shores another who is a captain in the Pope's
Guard Rome and third is barriser in the city OF

was ross-examined rather freely by gentlemen
Among those who called oil the prom

stos:hard's Principles of chemistry Stewards Moral
and active Powers of Man. Reds Intellectual Powers
Latham's English Grammer; and Cicero on the Immor
tally Of the Soul published by John Bartlett of Cam

Stockhard's Principles Of Chemistry is we'll worthy Of
the attention of the devotees that important branch
Of Science. 1t excels all modern publications, in
ensive esearch its cearness and perspcuy style,
and in the many illustrations Of experiments TO he met
with throughout its pages. 1t is used in the different de-
partments of Harvard University, and in many Of the
medical and other schools nthe East. II is strongly
recommended also, by of the most distinguished
chemists in the United States.
As to Stewart and Reid, we need to ssy but little
The names of these men too well known already,
both Europe and America require any notice from
These books, besides being very excellent reprints
Of the latest English editions, have been much improved
by DIR. Walker, revered and esteemed by all who
have had the good fortune TO become acquainted with
him. We may also add that these are the only Ameri.
cheap editions Of the works of these celebrated
men.
Latham's Grammer is greatly needed All the En-
glsh grammers that current at the present time are
either too simple and childish bulky and absruse
CAL It is the production of great Phiologis, who
has done very much for the English language, and ha,
been revised by learned professor in this country
Cicero the Immortality Of the Soul is treasure
that will be earnestly sought after by every lover of the
classics. II contains the Tuscuan Dsputations the
Dream Of Scipio and extracts from the Dialogues OF

Chase, tutor in Harvard University. We need moi
commend the beautiful style Of Cicero to the student
the Latin language The subject, also, is one raugh
with deep interest to every manespecally the proes

In conclusion, we would ask all who feel interes

in the Sentinel buildings, and examine for themselves
the above mentioned works We also hope that Mr.
