THE MoRGEsOSs Novsl- BY ELu,ssrH sTop-
p'Ep limo PIP 2's Carleton.
The racy pecuar,ies of country life and manners

story with convenient framework for the exhibition
Of a series Of characters which are not 20 much the
product Of observation as Of original invention.
Every thing relating 10 costume language, andsocial
habits. il drawn with admirable fidelity quick eye
has glanced over the moving panorama which is
presented even in the huubest village life, and seen
much which most persons would have let glide by

fects are wrought up into mosac o: excellent Gun.
ming and powerful impression. The personages OF
the story, however are drawn from the teeining
brain OF the writer. Even if their prototypes may
be found in actual experience, they have such a
strong subjective eoloring as TO bring them into the
class of creations not OF descriptions. They repre-
sent no familiar style OF life in New-Engsnd. They
are doubtless true 10 certain forms of human nature
but the originals must be sought in vain in any rural
population. We do not allude 10 this a fault, but
as characteristic. II implies far more profound
genius as well as higher artistic gift than the lit

Personalities. II 10 evidently the oufponrng OF Il
sngularly reflective nature, Accustomed TO brood
over the mysteries Of lfe,-with remorseless habit
of stripping tho vail from the soiiest Illusions and
cberishng an inexorable OF reality,
sincere with noble aspirations, in which high de-
mands have quickeneda cynical tendency into pre-
mature life, without having yet reached The point OF

Whit ungracious aspect is given to the successive
scenes Of the story, which are often only succession
of surprises They present the harsh, somber, un-
lovely features of character, which are repulsive
enough in real life, with no attempt to relieve them
By the softening graces Of art. Bot the purpose OF
the author il accomplished with not little success.
The story will be read a. development OF powerful,
elratic, individual passion-s somewhat bitter, but
perhaps not unwhoesome commentary on lie ana
socetv, instead Of a complete, fully rounded nara
tive, entcing to the imagination by pictures OF ideal
loyeliness and romantic perfection. The style Is
marked by uncommon terseness and piquancy. Ihere
Is no approach to tediousness in the composition, ex-
cent perhaps in the dialogue, which is sometimes
drawn out to a superfuous mnuteness. la general,
the work is done By short transparent, incsye cen

corrupt alliance 1t would DO forced into degrad-
iug alliances, and political degeneracy would stalk
onward as before.
But the signs Of the present, according to Pro-
lessor CarDes, do not Indicate such an unhappy
catastrophe. Great progress toward freedom has
been made within year. When the war broke
out, the Northern people were taken by surprise.
The leaders OF tho Government were unaccus-
toned to power. The public arsenals were in the
hands of the enemy. Traitors swarmed in al the
Offices. Men were divided into parties, holding
discordant views, and ayoriDg different measures.
They were united only in the wish to uphold the
Union, and for time seemed prepared to make
almost any concession in order to secure that end.
On the other hand, there was no doubt or yacla-
ton in the South. The leaders were urgent to
precipitate the catastrophe. Their treachcrous
shrewdncss had managed to secure the principal
forts and almost the whole military stores of the
Republic. The most experienced officers IN the
United States army were in their confidence,
many Of them passed over openly to their side
At the outset of the contest, it would seem that
they had all but accomplished their audacious
scheme-that but little remained but to seize up
on Washington, and dictate from the Capitol the
terms Of separation.
But, with the lapse of twevemonth such con-
tingencies seem no longer within the range OF pos
sible events. Amid the enthusiasm kindled by
war; the political education of the North has
made rapid progress. The true source of disaf-
fection to the Union, which politicians had artiul-
ly concealed, has been laid bare. The impossl-
blity of bringing free and slave societies into har-
monious cooperation under the same political sys-
ten begins to be understood. The necessity OF
breaking the Slave Power as the first step toward
reconstruction is rapidly becoming the accepted
end. Meanwhile the military superiority of the
North seems to be- fully established. In this as
pect of affairs, the restoration of Slavery on its
former footing in the Union seems TO the author
TO be entirely out OF the question.
With regard to the conditions of settlement,
Professor Carnes is less clear and satisfactory.
lie doubts the policy Of reconstructDg the Union
in its original proportions. The most that can be
aimed at, in his opinion, is to compel the South to
accept terms Of separation in accordance with the
progress of American civilization and the advance
ment of human interests throughout the world.
But be does not undertake to determine the
amount of concessions on the part of the South
which would satisfy these conditions His sng-
gestions this point are worthy of attention. al
though not conclusive. They must be taken by
the reader, in the present state of affairs as mat
ters of speculation, without ascrbng to them any
positive validity. The admirable tone of his book,
however, challenges our cordial sympathy, and
cannot fail to exert wholesome influence on pub
lie opinion in this country as well as in Great
britain.

There is such thing as thorough

Of the latter We now have word 10

and roots up weeds when they are
quite small. It does not wait until
they have become so large as to re-
quire double the amount Of time and

Il is altogether too late in the day 70
question The utility of the crop. The
raising Of those varietes wanted for
table use, is no unimportant matter. We
could almost rs soon think of Thanks
giving dinner without The turkey, as with
out the savory dish Of early white Dutch
turnips. Carefully stored in the roo
cellar, or put down in boxes Of sand in
the common house cellar, they will keer
fresh and juicy all winter. For spring
use commend Us TO the pnrple-topped
Swede, or rntabaga. We do not recon-
mend any Of these as being particularly
easy of digestion but, eaten in modera-
ton. they serve as a good relish and ac-
compartment to other food. For stock
feeding this root Is Of great value. For
producing milk, for fattening, or for keep
ing up the general health Of cattle. swine
and sheep, through the cold season, their
Importance IS not easily over-estimated
II is a great economy 10 use them especi.

rieulturist once said that the failure Of
the turnip crop there, would be a greater

like this would be true for our own coun-
try, perhaps; yet il is a fact that the tur.
nip crop is one Of great importance. 11r
The first of this month is in time for
