Two volumes of the promised history of
Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, by John
Foster Kirk, have been published by j. b.
L'ppincott & Co., Philadelphia. The third
volume will follow soon. The subject is ro-
mantle, and the author has brought to its con-
sideration the treasures of mind enriched by
patient discipline and study The author re-
ceived the elements of his education in
printing office in Boston, where he was found
by the late VIM. II. Prescott, and was by him
initiated in that course of historical studies
which has resulted in the work here an
nounced. His brilliant promise was early re-
cognized by Mr.. Prescott, and is generously
acknowledged in the preface to his "Philip
the Second" Upon the death of Mr.. Prescott,
Mr.. Kirk, who had long been in his service,
began the execution of the present work. The
style is simple yet graphic, and every way at
tractive, while the events of the most inter
esting historical period of which he writes,
come from his hands clothed with new and
fresh interest. The work adds no light value
to the literature of the country, and name
of no mean order to the honored list of
American historians. For sale by VIM. H.
Sanford.

WHAT is SHoDDY?-Shoddy is old worm
out unfelled wooden goods, made of slack
twisted yarn, picked to pieces by machinery
especially adapted to the purpose. 1t is then
mixed with wool of longer fibre and staple,
and when carded together can be spun fine or
coarse, according to the proportion it bears
to the new wool making the compound.
No small portions of percen' age of shoddy
can be mixed with the new wool and made
into yarn fit for either warp or woof or
yarn for knitting purposes. Mungo is an.
other name for old, worn, fine telted goods
and broadcloth clothes, picked to pieces in
the same manner. 1t is the finer article,
and wheH properly prepared can be made into
the finest black cloth in the market A very
large portion of all the satnet in the market
is more or less impregnated with shoddy
The same may be said Of hosiery and stockinet
goods. 1t is consequently worn by many. and
those who do not get it on in one form or
other are the favored few"
