DE1As DooroRs. By Hannah Gardner Dreamer
PIP 262.
We have not had time to read this story.
1t is tale with an interviewer expose, we
suspect, of all the pathies in vogue among the
sects Of medical people. The first chapter de-
scribes case, and, as we observe, the words
allOpathy, homeopathy, hydropathy, sympathy,
and mesmerism, among the headings of the
chapters, we suspect that it is the old grudge
treated according to the new notions or why
would the Fowlers take the pains to publish it ?
They have habit of putting their hearts into
their work and works which serves for good
hint at the character and drift of all they pub
lish This book, therefore, may be well or ILL
done-we do not know, for we do not know
Hannah Gardner Creamer--but that it is well
intended is warranted sufficiently by the i'm
print of the publishers. The title page carries
the motto, "lt hath q plan, but no plot. Life
has none."-Festus. Our guess is just the 9TH
or way-that it hath a plot, and may, per-
chance, have no plan. Moreover, we dispute
the proposition of Festus; very few lives have
any plan, the more's the pity; and most Of
those that are of any Importance, more pitiful
still, are made up of nothing but plots. Will
somebody read the book and tell us how near
y we have guessed its character from the title
page, and the known drift of the publishers
without knowing anything more about it?

The price marked in the Fowlers' catalogue

when single copies of the works in the list are
wanted, the amount in postage stamps small
change or bank notes, may be enclosed in q
letter and sent to the publishers mo. Ia1 Mas
'au street, New York; who win forward the
looks by return of the first mail. Our advice
% our readers is, to enclose the stamps forth
WITH, aud order Kossuth's Future of Nations,
With their thanks to the Fowlers for publish
ng it in this form for them. We have q rea-
ION, and good one, for this. In our own
youth, under the good providence of God, we
heard one lecture that had something in it, and
Numbered upon one or two printed pamphlets,
such as DR.. Channing's "Self Culture" and
70 this day the fragrance of their flower is
sweet in the fruit which they continue to yield.
Let your boys and girls have the speech.
