"This work is an enlargement, and an imnroxe.
ment as well, of valuable pamphlet published bv
Mr. Nell several years ago, and which had coma
facts which, as they illustrate the important ser.
vices rendered by colored men in the struggle
this nation with the mother country, it has too
ten been the policy of our white historians to ig
more or conceal. Mr.. Nell's industry in compiling
this volume is equalled only by his modest esti-
mate of the value of his labors He deserves the
thanks of every friend of impartial liberty and his
book should find a place in every Anti-Slavery
household. 1t is well calculated to put our spurl-
Gus Christianity and our sham Democracy alike
to the blush of shame for the cruel prejudice
against the colored people, to which they so In
sanely cling, and for denying to them the rights
and privileges of manhood, and booming them to
social prescription and virtual outawry, In land
for whose deliverance from oppression their faith
ers freely shed their Slauery STANDARD.
The title the native colored people of this
country to be considered as "men and brethren
of the whites, has been often contested by ungen-
erous men, who are willing to consider the negro
as a "person," but reject his claims to citizen
ship. In this volume, the heroism which was dis
played by some of the colored men whose blood
mingled with that of their white compatriots, in
the Revolution, is commemorated, together with
the testimonials which those who lived in the
times when the services of black men were neither
rejected nor unrecognized, paid to the colored de-
tenders of our country and homes 1t is timely

We have received pamphlet copy of that re-
markable production of DR.. Cheever's-" The
True History of Deacon Giles's Distillery," which
is now being republished and illustrated by Thos.
Hamilton, at 48 Beekman st., New York. 1t is a
scathing article, Astounding in the fire and hammer
of unfinching truth. 1t was written originally
for a paper called the "Salem Landmark" pub
lished at Salem, Mass, where DIR. Cheever, then a
young man, was engaged in the ministry. 1t pro-
duced great sensation at the time, and the whole
rum-fraternity were in arms about it. Cheever
was arraigned before court of justice. The re-
production of the article at this time is called for
and is eminently opportune, when, on either
hand, the hellish floods of lntemperance are surg

their devastating fow.-True american Ere, Pa }

A dream that is worth dreaming. Generally
speaking, we have very little confidence In
dreams dreams are liars" yet there are
dreams that tell truth of vast import. This is

dream is still doing wonders! But to the dream

postage paid.
1t reveals the miseries of servile life with in
tense vividness and impressiveness, that can bu
fasten its facts and arguments upon the readers
mind as with pen of iron and with the point OF
diamond.-Vt. Journal.
This volume besides its many moving and
thrilling details, affords evidence of most remark
able man. Mr. Douglass has emphatically made
himself. As writer and speaker he has but few
equals in the country Christian Aduocate.
1t presents clear and graphic picture of his
slavelife from his earliest recolectiOns, his escape
and his life SINCE including his experiences in this
country and Europe. No one will deny Mr.. DOu-
glass the possession of genus and character of a
high order. He writes in a nervous, clear, and
most telling manner clothing his narrative with
intense interest, and conveying his moral impress
sions with a vividness that leaves the reader
scarcely any escape. The subject is deeply tragic,
and, in his mastery handling, possesses an en-
crossing interest.-N. Y. Evangelist.
We have before listened to the homely tale OF
the liberated slave, but it did not impress us as
does this narrative of Douglass, for the reason
that we were left to supply the commentary which
is here pressed upon us by one who has both seen
and felt what he relates The story bears through
out the impress of truth, and the manner in which
it is told stamps the writer as man of genius and
a high order of talent.-Ohio State Journal
This is splendid work. The personal worth OF
the author, the deserved popularity he has secured
throughout this nation, and the universal desire
that prevails to have memento of one of nature
noblemen, will conspire to create an unprecedent-
ed demand for this book Wesleyan.
The book is written with the happiest descrip-
tive power with nerve and vigor of expression,
and with richness of style. 1t has an ample re-
source in phrase great perspicuity, and musical
resonating, and halfrhythmic style, which reminds
the leader of the authors origin and of the native
melodies of his race The book manifests high.
and, to us, unexpected polish The interest
aroused and kept up by a perusal of this book is
of a high order, and rarely degenerates-Detroit

1876 pages Price 81. Postage 10 cents.
This work has been compiled as a means of en-
Tightening public sentiment on an interesting but
much neglected department of American History
and is graced with an introduction by Mrs. Har-
riet Beecher Stowe, and illustrated by engravings
of Crispus Attucks the first martyr in the Boston
massacre of March 9Th, 1770 Peter Salem, on
Bunker Hill, and fac-simile autograph certif-
cate of General Washington, rendered to a colored
soldier. The increasing interest on the general
subject of Slavery invests this book with rare at
traction at the present time, for throughout its
pages are exhibited various phases of the "pecu-
liar institution, interviewer with incidents of pat
riotism and bravery Of colored Americans " in the
days that tried mems souls" From several COM
mandatory notices of the press the following are
selections
"This neat volume of nearly 400 pages is very
curious and interesting book, not only as regards
the character of its contents but as being the pro-
duction of young colored man, native OF, and
educated in, Boston. 1t purports to be an effort
to stem the tide of prejudice against the colored
race, and to show that they are fit for something
higher than the mental drudgery to which they
are generally doomed.
Mr.. Nell has gathered many interesting facts and
woven them together in very effective manner.
He has extended his researches into the local his
tories of seventeen of the States of the Union and
presents a great mass of testimony In behalf of
the military services of the colored people, which

AUTUMN

BY B. CLARK, sEN.
Autumn love thy tinted looks,
Thy faded leaves, and chilling brooks,
And variegated.. iowars;
Thy cooling winds and wither'd grass,
Precursor of the stormy blast,
And fiuetuating showers.
Thy cloudy days aad chilling nights,
And ripen'd fruits, aud pleasant sights,
All tell in language plain,
That thou whose frigid looks art seen
In bhghted trees, with yellow, greeu,
Hath called on us again.
Thy varied hills and vernal plains,
Wide fields arc stacked with ripen'd grain,
And Indian summers sun;
The crimson shadows Of the sky,
And transient clouds, rush swiftly by,
And tell us summers gone.
The streamlet's mournful dirge is heard,
The wild winds blow, and every bird
Is silent through the land;
The varying foliage is seen,
Autumnal glory reigns supreme,
Spread by Almighty hand,
Autumn love thy clouded sky,
Thy many storms that pass US by
Yes, cen thy chilling rain
AS ancient time, who steals away
Our years, and makes our whiskers grey,
Permits us to remain.
Thy annual visit and decay
Teach us a lesson, that we may,
BY learning well prepare
To live consistent here below,
And be prepared, when called to go,
The common fate to share.
