New York Times says; Barnune'S Autoblog-
rophy and W,kQt's Courtshap--if nothing
else had ever occurred to answer the question
which we remember to have read, as put by
some inquisitive Englishman, "Who reads al
American book % would answer the queris
satisfactorily;-everyb body reads these Amer
lean books, and laughs at or pities their au
thors.'
We would q little rather that an American
book should never be read than that these
should be taken as specimens of American
book making and morality. The most pop
1lar American books seem to be precisely
those which are most mischievous to the
peace and virtue of society. Uncle Tom S

NUNS Autobiography-all fair in money ma
! king-and Wykoffs Courtship--all fair in
love-these are the books which have an
immense run at home and abroad, while
! works of real merit are left to rot upon the
shelf.
In point of humbug, hypocrisy and disin-
genuousnsss, Mrs. Stoves production is of
these three books entitled to tho clear pre-.
make any pretension to delicate sense Of
honor. Barnum especially is entirely un.
blushing in the confession of his moral de-
linqusncies. and is perfectly willing the whole
world should consider him a scamp provided
he puts money in his purse. Mrs. Stowe,
however, while her object is precisely that
of Barnum, whilst she is every inch as self.
LIB and mercenary, affects the character of
philanthropist and a saint, and in the holy
gnise of religion scatters far and wide the
most defsmatory ibels upon millions of her
own cpsntrymen. Uncle Tom" was as

CLosa.c or BARBER SHors oS Suspafs.-
We learn from the New York Herald hat
ons Of the members Of the New YORK 'esa
lature has announced his intention .. soaie
future day. to introduce bill for the cios'us
of BARRIERS shops on Sundays. Inc mose-
ment, it IL said has produced quite senss-
ton among some of the knights OF the razor
though the majority appear to regard It as an
excellent joke Bennett recommends that
this Sunday reform should be extended. and
that IL should be made illegal for citizen to
wash his face on Sunday, or to pick his
teeth after dinner.--or to have any dinner,
breakfast or supper at all, inasmuch as the
preparing of the same involve labor. The
Herald also urges that the excellent old Blue
| Laws of Connecticut be re-enacted; that no
man should be permitted to cough, sneeze,
o. kiss his wife on Sunday. As to the bar
bars, he eongratulates the public that the
good time is coming when the vile, heathen-
ish, ard aboninable practice of shaving on
the Sabbath will meet with its just punish
ment.''
| We have no doubt that "a good time is
coming" when "the heathenish and abomina-
Bile practice of shaving on week days will
| be totally abolished. There is good time
coming when every maa's beard shall be
permitted to grow in rich luxuriance; when
the tyrannical customs of society shall no
longer compel mankind to torture themselves
every day by scraping wiry beard from a

brave pioneers in this good work. We nev-

when all sorts of shaving shops shall be
abolished, and every man shall have plenty

Differences Of Climate.

In Davenport, last Sunday, as our readers
remember, the weather was rather wintry
and disagreeable, but there must be great
difference between the climate of this c,ty
and that OF Rock Island, as, referring to that
day, the u. |. .Ncrs says
Yesterday Spring again made her appear
ance in all her beauty, smiling and oiush'na

as they wended their way TO the dtifersn'

PrrrY.-One Of our Davenport neigh
bors, in giving somewhat glowing account
Of that aourishing place, n describing its sa-

following:
aConsamption never initiated victim
here, aud many considered hopeessly incu-
rable at the East have found vigorous and
robust health after q short sojourn in our
baImy atraos phere."
We turned over the paper, and under the
head OF deaths, was announced that OF a
young man aged 23 # CeHsumptton.-Ha'o'-

Inludicious putting Is worse than abuse of
place. Davenport Is healthy enough and
contains sufficient natural advantages to en-
title it to all praise witho It resort to such
assertions as the above. There is no quar-
ter or section Of our globe entirely free from
this insidiou. disease in some one of its null
tiforrns. We have seen the red man Of the
forest dying with consumption here in Dav-
export, one Of the most healthy spots in the
