WORKS OF WASHINGTON IRvING.-1he Bos-
ton Post, in a recent article on the sale of
books, says:
Of Washington Irving's sworks-excIusive of
the Life OF Washington and "The Sketch
Book'-there have been sold within the last
ten years 22 900 sets of Is volumes each. OF
the "Sketch Book 50, COO copies have been dis
tributed, and of the ''Washington' 42,O0O sets
of volumes each, and at prices ranging from
81 to Ss5 per set This gives grand total of
SIS 900 volumes disposed of under G.. p. Put
MANS management since 1919. Meanwhile,
Mr.. Irving has received, as a reward of his
brain-work, the snug little sum of 200 in
the past ten years. A curious scrap of secret
literary history is the fact that, at the expira-
tion OF Irving's contract with Lea l. Blanch-
ard, in 1874, there occurred a hiatus of five
years, into which no other publishers ventured
TO leap. During this time the genial author of
s'Sunnyside' (then in Spain) imagined himself
obsolete and forgotten, his works being almost
entirely out of the market, and no proposals
being made to him for their republication. In
1Si9 Mr.. q. p. Putnam rendered TO Mr.. r.
wing formal offer to assume the Reissue OF
the various works, in uniform and attractive
style, which proposition the great writer ac-
cepted, without suggesting single change of
terms; and the immense sales mentioned are
the fruits of the contract then entered into.

her SON lis never weakened, never dies. The
mother of VIM. A. Choice, under sentence Of
death at Atlanta, Georgia, for the murder OF
a young man named Webb, while under the
influence Of liquor, fas petitioned the Legis-
lature that her SON may be saved from the
gallows ON The ground that he was subject TO
frequent fits OF alteration of mind. 1t APP
pears she was prevented from bringing this
fact before the jury, at the trial, Ia conse-
quence Of being Frustrated by illness. In her
petition she uses the following words, an APP
peal that could only come from mothers
heart: "The law, which cannot know mercy,
has doomed him to die ON the gallows. but
arm still his mother, and that tie which ma
ture creates and makes holy is most sacred
1T is not weakened even by his impending fate
If any among you be inclined to deem me in
trusive, let him remember this--let him re-
member his own mother, and say whether she
ought to be silent If cruel destiny was about
TO consign you to such fate" The Senate,
after an able debate. passed the bill granting

lIopE AND FoRruSE,-It is amazing in what un-
substantial indications the sanguine find grounds
for hope AS the powers Of the microscope con-
vert the green mould of some decaying object into
vcrdent forests and bowers of bliss the eye of
youth discovers promise in the evening of cloud,
and its buoyant heart dances for joy the broken
strain of distant and unattainable music. To such
a degree of falaeious hope, however, is not that
which is based upon some surer and irmer founda-
ton. Such, for instance, as investing the small
sum Of ten, five, or two and half dollars in
WooD, EDDY a Cos great legalised lottery. BY
forwarding either of these amounts to WooD, EDDY
Co., either at Augusta, Georgia, or Wilmington
Delaware, the woocr of dame fortune at the shrine
of her favors will insure chance of realsing his
hopes In a prize of fifty thousand dollars.
