full harness armed to the teeth, launched forth
upon the world to the cheers Of the flbssteros and
the terror Of the despots Of Europe. How they will
trcmble in their shoes as they read it. Wonder If
the Emperor Nicholas gets it regularly. The Ooto.
Der number has indeed matter enough in it to dis
turb the quiet neutrality dreams Of President Fill
more himself The first article, on Pierce and Scott
covers all creation, and leaves little ofold Chapu
tepcc as the late election The second chapter gives
the Czar OF all the Russiss particular fits srning
bis buccaDeerDg expeditions into CTcassia, and is
decidedly interesting for its geographical and his
toroal facts So of the next article Of the plumber
ing military operations Of Charles Albert against
old white beard Radetsky The next three articles,
one upon the wings at Washington and the Sphnards
at Havana, one on Sour Foreign Relations and
one continuation of the Personal Narrative Of
Louis Schlossinger, of Adventures in Cuba and Ceu
ta,'' are flbustering articles to the back bonered
hot democratic Indignation meeting in the Park.
The narrative Of Schessinger is, however, clear,
consistent history Of the last tragicAl Lopez
expedition, by one of tho conspicuous and
Intelligent actors in it Schlessinger remem-
bers everything, and has a reason for every
thing ara if he presents vivid picture of
the terrible suerugs and disasters OF the invaders,

They prove if so mach was accomplished by a dis
piIited and divided force OF four hundred badly
armed men, that united body Of well equipped and
disciplined Americans of thousand in number, in
that enterprise, would in all probability have over
run tho island But if the flibWsteros worked out
this important problem, the Spanish authorities
were also taught the necessity Of stronger detencss,
and have pronted by their experience accordingly.
But let that pass " The Order Of the Lone STAR
will DO very apt TO restrain their patriotic ar1or for
Cuba, hereafter, within the limits of the United
States The article on Napoleon the Little, is q
violent rehash of Victor Hugo's malignant diasribe
against that able tacitian, who, before Christmas,
viii be Napoleon III Several other articles OF the

make up this specimen number of the Rer'csv Ia
the next number we shall probably have the acqui-
stion of Cuba, ana the hombardment of the capital
of the black Emperor Of Hayti, aud his forcibe OK
pulsion from the island, urged upon Gen Pierce as
the hrst duties OF his administration Young Amer
lea is all alive. We say nothing Of the pictorial de-
corations Of tho Recie,c though they clever, as
the fashion goes.
As might naturally have been expected, "Uncle
Toms Cabin" has provoked the publication Of
other works on the subject of slavery; and frat Of
all comes g Uncle Tom in England which pur-
ports to be the dying speech and confession of E n
incline, whose Ultimate fate, in the opinion of the
author Of the present work, ought not TO have been
left to the lima ination of the reader In order to
prove that slavery is not quite bad represented
Mr.. Randolph has written work called the Ca
bin and Parlor," which has been published at
Philadelphia and shows, by contrast and facts, that
Uncle Toms Cabin is o gross exaggeration. As
sert of go-between, there is also q 70 publication
Of Airs nsles 'sNorthwood," which is picture Of
life North and South, and in addition to slavery,
deals with other questions.
From all the hubbub raised by the vexed question
of abolitionsm, it is indeed relief to turn our at

was therefore with feelings Of delight that We
glanced over two volumes Of Professor De Bows
Industrial Resources Of the Southern and Western
States which we consider as being almost an inds
penssble requisite to the citizen we'll as the states

ascertain data to aid them in commercial transact
