than was ever effected by all other influences

an analogous irit, and we trust with analo
gous success, Mr. Gayarrk Las esh bited In the
"School for Politics. The tricks, corruptisns
and impostures Of modern politicians. 1t Is
higl time the power Of ri icule should take
cognizsnce of the unive, sally acknowledged
delraviiy and grossness and frauds OF our po'
litical men Of all parties, 80 graphically Illus
tIated in the work before us. The stage, If
not the press, may put stop to this crying
evil, which threatens to reduce our system to
the merest oligarchy; and We hope to see the
drama Of Mr.. Gayarre represented in every
city Of the Union. 1t should az least be read
by every man, woman and child in the whole
country for 1t applies to every part OF 1T. Our
dramatic les ees and actors can hardly fail to
reap rich reward by showing up our politi-
cal Governors and Presidents upoa the public
boards to amuse the masses aud unmask the
infamous tricks by which our popular sove-
reignty is made mere jest, and turned to The
exclusive advantage of the interested few
What a blessing to the country If MIR. Gayarre
should bring up our public men to the standard
of our early patriots by display ng upon the
stage the corruption of their unworthy de-

A PRACTICAL TREATISE on TnB DISEASES OF
THE 1HroAT AND LUNGS BY Robert Hunter,
| Nj D. Stringer & Townsend. The variable tenn
| PEI ature Of our climate renders the diseases OF
which the work Def re US treats, of such gene
raj prevalence, that we hail every new acces-
sion to our stock of pathological information
| on the subject as a valuable boon. Dr. Hunters
method Of treatment by the inhalation of meii-
cines into the system in the form Of vapor is
very highly spoken of, and his work gives us
the data on which his experience is founded.
Without pledgiDg ourselves to an approval of
his system, of which we are not professionally
qualified to speak, we recommend his treatise
to the careful perusal OF those who have failed
in obtaining relief from other remedies. 1t
seems to be the work of man who has devoted
his attention exclusively to the study of this
| class of diseases, and as such it is entitled to
at least an impartial consideration.
"GUTTLE AND GuLPIT"-Taylor & Co. have
published an amusing dramatic bagatelle under
the above title. 1t abounds in sharp and tell.

Messrs. Tails 4 Co., of Broadway, have pub

rot only to business men but to strangers.
Amongst other novel features in it the num-
bers on the corner houses OF the different streets,
| and the various railroads passing through the
city, are shown.
