| DR.. j. II ROBTNsoS ASD THE New YORK
MERcuRY.-A Brilliant ENGAGEMENT
| The immense improvement that has exhibit
| ted itself dir'ing the few years, in weekly
! literature, has received n new impetus from
the engagement, by the proprietors of the
New York MERoUKT, of DR.. ]. II: ROBINSON
one of themost popular..a and tal cnted of Ameri-
can authors. Dr. Robinson's best known
work, hitherto, is the celebrated "Buck Bison,
which first appeared in the MERCURY, and
was received with the greatest favor in all
parts Of the country where real sterling lit
erary power and Interest are appreciated
Subsequently, two others, entitled "Nick
Whifllcs" and "Onc-Eyed Saul, " appeard in
another Journal and added still more hstre
to the authors laurels. Arrangements have
now been made by the proprictors of tie
MERCURY to secure this talented and brilliant
pen for their coumns only, and Br. Robinson S
works will appear, in future, illustrated by
the magic pencil of America s'frst Artistic
lix'O. c. barley.
The first fruit of this new enterprise has
Just come forth, in the form of fascinating
romance of the Northern Trapping Grounds,
bcarin. the attractive title of "PATHAwAY;
or, the Mountain Outlaws in which the IA
voritc character of mick Whifles" is coutn-
ucd, surrounded Ivy the diffikilties" and droll
cries that havo made him famous Forever.
As the truthful del:ncation of the wild life
of the hunting ground is DR.. Robinscns Own
chosen department of literature, and one in
which he has held the palm for many years
we may look forwarq with much pleasure to
the pcrusal of Pathways" Which has been
written con amo,e, and is designed by its an
thor to hc his most finished md interesting
work. Indeed it will, without doubt, prove
equal to anything of the same nature that
has ever been published in this country, not
excepting the romNnccs of the immortal Coo
per.
The brilIancy ofthought, clcarucss of cx-
preston, imaginative tone and beauty Of in
cidcnt, that are the distinguishing features of
Dir. RobinSon's Writings, tender him the favo.
rite of all classes of readers and although the
proBrCtors Of the MERCURY have engaged
him for a term of years, at higher price than
has ever before been paid by a newspaper To
any American romanccr, there is little qucs-
ton but what they will have every reason to
lie cmincntly satisfied with the arrangement
A story by DR.. Ropinson, with illustrations
by barley, cannot fail to crafty the most
faotidious tast, and create a profound scnsa-
ton Of intercst throughout the whole reading
world; and the success of Pathway; on
the Mountain Outlaws" must be already re-
gardcd as fixed fact.

BOARD OF Public works.

IT will be seen by reference to another col
umn, that the Board Of Public Works Of
this State, met in Washington on last Satur-
day, and reelected the States portion Of
Directors in the Baltimore ard Ohio Rail
Road, with the exception Of Mr.. Bartlett, of
Baltimore, and DR.. Ohr, Of this city. What
motive prompted them in the inyidlOus dis
tinction they have made Is not yet apparent.
One thing, .howevcr, is certain, and that s,
the policy being pursued iy this Board is
contrary TO what VIC were led 10 expect, and
meets with the unqualified condemnation Of
the party in this county. We believe that
majority Of them are sold body and hreechcs
to thai Money King, John Garrett, leading
Lucofoco--that they are traitors to their par
ty--dlshonest and corrupt men-and that if
the American party doeo not Dust them, they
will seriously damage it. Only Que reason
can lc assigned for dismissing DIR. Dhr, and
that is, he would not bow the knee to John
Garrett. All honor to the man! We would
rather he DR.. Ohr out Of the Board, than the
traitors in it. Want Of space tins week pre-
vents our saying on this subject what we in-
teLded, but we announce it as our purpose
to expose the doings both of the Board Of

corruption existed in both these Boards, and
