There is fascination in his style which is O
inimitable. One evidence Of the worth Of +
the present volume is the fact that the New
York. Tribune and one or twoother eastern I
journals are publishing it entire in their s
columns. We have not yet found time to p
read it; but we intend to. Price, in paper b
cover, 30 cents. For sale by Remington K
q Halliday. II
By the way, it strikes our mind, thatwe y
have noticed several works as IN press at !,
Peterson's which have never made their Il
appearance on our table. Some of these
are trashy things, Of no value; but there
is one Of the number--"The Humors Of
Falconbridge." for which we feel a little
anxious, on the score of "auld acquaint-
ance."
GRAHAM's MAeAzIEE.-The January /
number is already on our table. In typo
graphical appearance. it is unsurpassed.
We intend this as a compliment tos the
printer, as we'll as the publisher. "Fhe
New Years Gift" is sexquisitely designed,
and we'll executed. A more life-lIke pic
ture is seldom found. Itis worth the price
of the book. At the risk Of broomsticks
and three-leggeI stools, we enter our SOL
emn protest against those caricatures OF
female loveliness, called "colored fashion
t plates" If they were called Fashion
: plates for culle'd pussons," we should not
; object SO seriously; but the idea Of repre-
: enting sohite women with circumference
: Of six inches at the waist, and something
|, like sixty yards at the lower extremity, is
,, positively ulgar-it is outrageous, And
l. then red bristles la porcupine, and bare
!, headed! Oh! murder! "The Orphans"
Of is prettily designed but poorly executed.
a The design is worthy first-class steel en-
