THE CooUETTE. A novel founded on facts by
lady OF Massachusetts,. I. B. Peterson d Bros.
The work before us can be appropriately
termed peculiar. 1t has flavor Of antiquity, a
quaintness, force and expression, power of
phraseology, which warrants us in terming it
strange. 1t is founded, we are told, on fact, and
the plot Is developed in number of letters,
written bv the heroine to her friends, which
compose the body of the book. 1t is undoubt-
edly of 6eep interest, and its snguarities secure
for it favorable attention. Pre6xed to the
work is n preface containing the history of
''Eliza Wharton whose sad and tragic life its
pages lay before the public. 1t contains real
characters under assumed names, and in few
instances the assumption even Is laid aside.
Being founded on events which happened in the
last century there is no danger of suit for libel.
1t is undoubtedly of deep interest, and is emf
nently such o work as will be popular with lady
readers.
THE QUEENS REVENGE. BY Wilkie Collins. T.
B. Peterson Bros, No. 306 Chesnut street.
Why the work before us is given the name it
Is we are at loss to discover. The "Queen's
Revenge" constitutes the first ten pages, and is
one of the many sketchy articles which the book
contains. 1t is q seIies or rather disonted
collection of pleasing essays, written years ago
by Wilkie Collins, befJre lis "Woman in White
had make him famous, and is as gossipy and
spicy as we could desire. The essays treat of
various subjects, and as We are assured there is
mo new thing under the sum-" the topics Sc
lected are all treated of in the most original STYLE
in order to make the best out of old subjects.
The work, if it had been published before the
'Woman In White" would have attracted but
little attention. as it is rather promise of some
thing better than the article itself; vet coming
as it does from man whose reputation is esta
blshed, it is interesting because of the progress
it shows he has made as well as the pleasing
nature of the work itself.

THE LATEST FEN1AN SENSATION

THE LATEST FEN1AN SENSATION. .
The newest report connected with Fe-
nianism has reference to the alleged
fitting out d Of sundry vessels to ''go a
fishing" on The Banks of Newfound-
land ostensibly, but really to effect u
landing somewhere on the British
North American coast. The vessels
are to be well manned and we'll armed,
and things will be SO managed that
no difficulty will be experienced in
procuring clearance papers. AS soon
as the landing is effected-so goes the
story-the Irish republic will be re-
gularly launched, and Uncle Sam will
be requested to recognize it as a bel
'1igerent, at least so far as to allow it
the. use of United States ports, into
which prizes to Irish privateers may
be brought.

A Corinth correspondent says that
it is estimated that upon the two
fields OF Shiloh and Corinth there
are not less than 1000 Confederate
dead, whose bones for the most part
lie bleaching above ground, the rains
having washed away the thin layer of
earth with which most were originally
covered. The Federal dead were all
neatly inferred, in the usual way,
with head and foot boards in every
instance, and, in most cases, were
enclosed with wooden palings

GEN STEPHEN D. lea cores
pondent of the Memphis Aralanche,
writing from Artesia, Mississippi,
says that General Stephen D. Lee,
formerly of the Confederate army.
has leased a large plantation, on
which he employs more than fifty
freedmen. General Lee is of the
opinion that cotton growing for the
next four or five years will be most
lucrative. He does not speak favora-
bly, of emigration to Mexico, remark
ing that though from experience he
knows the Mexican soil to be most
fertile, he had learned sufficiently
the character of the Mexican people
to convince him that revolutions were
as natural and inevitable in Mexico
as eruptions in Mount Etna or We
suvius. He encourages all lovers of
peace to remain at home, and by
honestly adhering to the support of
PRESIDENT Johnson, and by strict con-
tormity to all laws and proclamations,
to regain the political rights
and privileges lost by the rebellion,
and restore the prosperity of the
South as speedily as possible Con.
Lee has set a good example, and, like
the Lees and Johnstons, of Virginia,
Is affording an example of good sense
and personal industry which is worthy
imitation
