We have also received from Lucas Brothers,
from the Appleton's press
THE TIN TRUMPET Or Heads and Tails for the Wise and

sort of cYclopedia of eccentrcity, bulls and bon
mots, alphabetically arranged The wit is not very
brilliant nor the learning profound, yet it may
serve to amuse leisure hour. The work was written
by the late PAUL CHATFIELD, NJ. D., edited by JET
FERsoN SANDERS, Esq, and first published in Lon
don, 1886. 1t was re-published here immediately
but soon went out of print. The American editor
of the present edition has eliminated much that was
too local to England or superannuated to be
relished here, and substituted selections from his
own commonplace book. Also,

This work receives fame from its author instead
of comforting fame upon him. 1t shows, however,
that the present French Emperor is deliberately
acting out part well studied by him at period
when he could had but little expectation of coming
upon such stage. 1t will be read with some inter

by Cushings Bailey
Sermons 'torty save one," in which the magma
ton of the novelist and poet is toned down, and
the prance and dash of his language and fancy
deity refined in, and meet and elaborate smpli-
city made to dominate. The 'sauthor of Alton
''Locke" cannot be wholly put aside from any work
written by Kingsley and throughout the pages of
these lectures we see traces of pecuiartes of that

collected in the little bright volume before us will
detract nothing.
