Mr.. Aughey is sanguine in his hopes OF the
restoration of the Union. Slavery he regards as
the solo cause of the rebellion, and its strongest
prop. -Four millions of laborers are able to fur
nsh supplies for eight millions. Subtract that re-
source from the rebellion, its effect would speedily
be shown in the complete paralysis of the South
ern Confederacy. One great cause OF the long
continuance of the war is that the Union army mas
endeavored to concate the South, rather than
crush the rebellion. Let the supremacy oil the
law and the Constitution BIO enforced, and slavery
and secession will perish together.
THOUGHTS IN MY GARDEN. BY MARI @. WARE.
limo PIP. ?6s Crosby Neaola
The point Of view from which the various
themes of this volume are considered Is derived
from the doctrine of Swcdenborg in regard to the
correspondence of things natural and things apir-
itual. Not that the writer engages in any intri-
cate discussions concerning the teachings oil the
New Church; but accepting them as undeniaoie
veritics, she points out their application 70 some
of the familiar scenes nnd incidents of daily hfe
According TO the faith which she holds, the mate
rial world around us is designed to teach US WHAT
is within us and hence we find in it all manner oil
good and evil things in animal, vegetable, ana
mineral forms. All good aud useful forms arc the
direct outbrth and expression Of the Divine Love
and Wisdom. All evil and noIious forms are the
result and expression of the evil and falsehood
that ia in man. The former are intended TO Lead
US in the path Of life by their beauty and useful
ness; the latter ara designed by their ugliness ana
nervousness to repe us from the way Of death. In
pursuing these analogies, the author exercises not
little ingenuity. though it is combined with sucl
soundness Of sense as TO insure sobnety oil STATE
ment and to guard against fancifal and unprohta'
bis mbtlety The key note OF the volume Is struck
in the opening essay. which also presents singu-
larly agreeable picture Of rural life.
