From Mr.. CHARLES WORKMAN we have ::
1.-THE Life and Labors of Rev Justin Ed
wards, d. d." by the Rev. VIM. A. Hallock,
of New York. Dr. Edwards was one of the
most distinguished advocates of temperance
and of the religious observance of Sunday.
He was both able and Jealous. His biog-
rapher has given the public highly inte.
resting work-one that viii be very accept.
able to pious readers and the friends of the
temperance cause.
Messrs. BUFFERS K SIMoNs have favored
US with BAYARD TAYLoRs work on India,
China and Japan" elegantly issued from
the press of Putnam. Taylor is a very smart
fellow. He knows how to describe things,
and he knows how to make up popular
book of travels. He is fit successor of the
late Mr. Stephens, of New York, who was
in his best day at the head of the profession
of makers of books of travels. Our Ameri-
can boys who have the talent are most hap.
PLY adapted to this profession, by their en-
terprising cosmopolitan dispositions. They
are always at home, and ready fer any thing
that turns up"
Our friend Colonel SPALDING is also get.
ting up work on Japan, of which he really
saw more than Bayard Taylor. Bayard had
the good fortune to get the use of some of
the official materials but there is room for
the Colonel still left, and we doubt not he
will make the best use of it.
We have also from Messrs. BUFFERS &
