FAMOUS AMERICANS OF RECENT TIMES. By
James Parton, author of "Life of Andrew
Jackson" "Life and Times of Aaron Burr"
etc. Boston: Ticknor & Fields.
The contents of this volume are not new
times during the past four or five years, to the
pages of the North american Reuiew, the At
lantic Monthly, and other periodicals, and near
ly all of them attracted very general attention
at the time of their publication. The article
on Daniel Webster, from the last number of
the North american, has scarcely yet ceased to
excite comment, which has been particularly
animated in those regions where the lingering
effects OF the Great Expounder's wonderful
personal influence are still felt And though
opinions may vary in regard to the correct
ness in some points of Mr.. Parton's portrait of
Webster, it must be admitted that his article is
an admirable specimen of this kind of writing.
1t exhibits not only much skill in the analysis
OF character, and an acute Judgment in esti-
mating its moulding influences, but also in q
very eminent degree the writer's happy facul-
ty of presenting the results of his examination
in taking and popular manner.
The paper ON John Randolph, published in
the same periodical some time last year. is an
other fine example of Mr.. Parton's best man.
ner.
The otheressays in the volume are on Henry
Clay; John c. Calhoun; Stephen Girard and
his Colleges James Gordon Bennett and the
New York Herald; Charles Goodyear; Henry
Ward Beecher and his Church; Commodore
Vanderbilt; Theodosia Burr, and John Jacob
Astor. The whole are comprised in very
handsome octave of some five hundred pages,
finely printed and bound and embellished with
an engraved portrait of Calhoun. 1t is for sale
by Davis Brothers.

CITY HoTEL-It gives us pleasure to an
nounce that Messrs. John p Davis & Co..
landlords of the City Hotel, have abolished
their bar, and hereafter no Intoxicating drinks
will be sold in that house, and it will be kept
as first class hotel. The house is large, spa
cious and airy, and under the present proprie-
tors it has become popular place Of resort for
strangers. The tables are always supplied with
the best of viands and all the luxuries the
markets afford, while the neatness, cleanliness
and convenience of the sleeping apartments
cannot be exceeded.
1t becomes the temperance portion of the
community to literally patronize this hotel,
and unless they are false to their professions
and pledges, they will so do. The complaint
has been universal in this city that first-ciass
temperance hotel cannot be srstained-that
temperance men prefer to go where intoxicat-
ing liquors are sold, rather than patronize one
where they are not. Here is an opportunity to
try the question upon its merits, and let us
now see if such be the fact.

The SONGS OF SCoTLAND.-Not all the in
evitable disagreeables and annoyances Of
Deering Hall were sufficient last night to pre-
vent large and fashionable audience attend
ing on the first of Mr.. Kennedy's vocal enter
tainments illustrating the songs and legends
of Scotland. Certainly, the entertainment de-
served large house, for it was one OF the
most charming which we have enjoyed for a
long time. Mr.. Kennedy possesses rare COM
bination of talents He has a voice of much
sweetness and of unusual compass, a rich, mel
low tenor which is capable of the softest and
most melting notes of pathos at one moment,
and at the next has the ring of clarion call
ing to BATTLE He is an admirable mimic, and
capital raconteur, and being as Scotch as old
Scotland, he gives to all his stories, his ballads
and his dialogues true Scotch flavor. 1t is
difficult to tell whether he is most at home in
the graver portion of his entertainment, or in
that which is gayer.
His recitations of portions of the Noctes
were admirable and in his songs he rendered
the hopeless sorrow of "Auld Robin Gray"
the spirit and dash of "Young Lochinvar,"
the comic archness of Duncan Gray" and
the fiery patriotism of "Scots wha haze wi
Wallace bled," with almost equal beauty and
truth The spirited Jacobite song, 'Bonnie
Prince Charlie" was also admirably given
No one who loves-and what person of taste
does not loye!-the beautiful songs and ballads
of the land of Burns, should fail to witness
this entertainment. aar.E4 5.-H
The programme for this evening contains the
best features of that of last night, with some
additional attractions. We bespeak for it an
audience even larger than the first.
We should not omit to mention the graceful
and close Accomplishments played by Miss
Kennedy. Her performance is surprising in
one so young.

Products OF THE CITY FARM.-In looking
over the Report of the Overseers of the Poor
(made to the City Council few evenings
since) we were struck with the productive
ness of the city farm and the adjuncts; and as
we presume our citizens in the main are I'M
acquainted with the results of this source of
revenue, we take the liberty, for their infor
nation to transcribe list of the products of
last year, as follows 2O094 lbs pork, $3,O14
1470 lbs butter, $59S; 5000 gallons of milk $S5;
80 tons English hay, $1,000; 8 tons I'd crop, 500;
4 tons salt hay, $40; 8 tons barley straw, $45;
"a bushels barley, $A; $50 bushels potatoes,
$3.50; 1000 heads cabbage, 5000; 8 bushels of
onions, 81; 1000 lbs squash, $50; 900 pump
kins, $27; II tons carrots, $255; 40 bushels of
beets, 800; 200 bushels turnips, 100; II bushels
parsnips, $12. Also, sales of calf-skins, COW
hides, vegetables not enumerated above, $685.
90; amounting in all to $6,9OS.09.
This favorable result has been brought
about under the careful management of Mr..
Sampson, (the master of the House) in coop
Grafton with the efficient farming committee of
the Overseers of the Poor, by their using all
the artificial means available, with the labor
of the able bodied male paupers in the House,
to swell the products as largely as possible.
