NEW WORKS IN PREPARATION.

J. c. Derby has in press new story, called &" The
Newsboy, devoted TO the delneation of life in New
York. and eyincing power of observation and vivid
description which has rarely, if ever, been surpassed
by any previous work on similar plan. We have
been favored with the perusal of several chapters in
the advanced sheets and can unhesitatingly say that
they are marked by uncommon energy of style, and
contain numerous lfe-ike representations of modern
city society, with frequent passages of kmdlDg pa
thos The writer appears to have made himself per-
.cty fsmiiar with the anomalous traits Of the class
to which his book is devoted, and has succeeded in
hitting off their characteristics with strength and
nsiuralness. These, moreover are made the founda-
ton of high-wrought plot, which expands in its
progress into scenes Of exciting interest," and shows
a rare genius for fictitious composition.

MoRs OF JOSEPH JOE

MEMOIRS OF JOSEPH JOHN Quincy. Edited by

LpJinooit, Grsmbo Co.
Tic life of this devoted phianthropist furnishes
scanty share of materials for posthumous interest.
His connection with several Of the liberal movements
of the day presents decided points OF attraction,
than any features in his personal character. As an
Illustration of the progress of social reform his bog-
raphy can be read with profit; but he was not man
to inspire cordial sympathy or to lead one to study
his nature for its original curious and exquisite mani
festations. Such dull, Flooding course of unimpas-
stoned excellence, however valuable to the sacred in
teresfs of society is charming in the retrospect
and we must confess accordingly that these lumber
ing memorials Of the worthy, coldbooded and santed
Joseph John are the dullest kind Of reading
