AUTOBIOGRAPHY or Mr.. VAN Bu REN.--The
Paris correspondent OF the Now Iorl. Evening
Post writes, under date of October ith, that Ex-
President Van Buren, is at Nevay, in Swtzer-
land, earnestly at work upon his autob Biography,
in which he has already advanced some two
three hundred pages. The writer adds that it is
not designed to publish the work until after Mr..
Van Buren's death, land that event, Judging
from his present appearance and condi ton. will
be many years hence" Upon this information
the Evening Post remarks:
mir. Van Buren's life has been a singul;rly
eventfnl and instructive one, and il is due both to
himself and his friends that he should leave so mo
written record of those portions especially of his
career TO which he alone has the key. Mr. Van
Buren, has had wider political experience aud
held more exalted pubic stations than have ever
been held by any other person in this country
since the formation of the Government lie is
the only person who has held its four highest Of
fees, President, Vice President Secretary OF
State, and Minister to England. He was also "
United States Senator, Governor of the State
of New York, Attorney General of the State,
State Senator, and Surrogate of the county of
Columbia. With his book and Mr.. Benton's
complete, we think the old Democratic party
will stand pretty fair chance with posterity."

I'D By Jacob Abbott
Rollo on tho Atlantic " is the first book of So
ries to be published under the general title Of Roos
Tour in Europe.
Extract from the Preface:
"The books are intended to be books Of instruc-
tion rather than of nero amusement and, in peru
sing them the reader may feel assured that all the in
formation which they contain not only in respect TO
the countries visited and to the customs usages and
modes of life that are described but also in regard TO
tho general character of the incidents and adventures
that the young travellers meet with rs IN most rct
accordance with fact The main design of the nara
tive is thus the communication Of useful knowledge
and everything which they contain, except what is
strictly personal in relation to the actors in the story
may be depended upon as exactly and scrupulously
true" Published by
