THE gamblers of New York city
are awfully vexed by the movement
of the anti-gambling society. These
gentlemen have held several meetings,
at which it was decided to collect
large fund for the payment of lawyers
and other persons to protect their in
terests. The other persons " who are
to be paid are the police of the city,
who are to be subsidized to "stay
away " from the gamblers bells. Mer-
chants, manufacturers, bankers, and
decent men in Ill the purs uits of bust
ness, are uniting themselves with the
anti7gamblers' society as means of
reforming their employees, by whom
they are so frequently robbed to sup
ply their passion of card playing.
The mania for gaming is to day the
greatest evil which disgraces society,
and every community owes it to itself
to form an anti-gambling society

The Journal In Kentucky.

Our circulation is steadily growing
in all of the three States, which con-
tribute most to the business of our
city. But in none of them has it been
so large and rapidly increasing as in
Kentucky. Last Spring we made some
little effort to have the JOURNAL
more freely introduced, simply by ad-
dressing such of the Union men of
few localities with whom we were ac-
quainted, and at once our subscription
list began to swell; and since that
time it has steadily increased. Only
during the past few days we have re-
ceived oce1- one hundred subscribers,
and hardly mail arrives but what
contains additions to our list.

The above works comprise five vol

works of the greatest living English
novelist The stories themselves are
familiar to many. if not most, of the
readers of the JOURNAL. But no
citizen will regard his library as COM

of DICKENS works. Their delineation
of English life, especially, and the
portrayal of peculiar characteristics
of human nature found in them
make, or should make, them books

portion of them. The pathos
in the story Of Little Nell's trials and
suferings, in Old Curiosity Shop,
moves the heart more powerfully
than the most ludicrous scenes in
Pickwick Papers; and Mr.. " Peck

added a word of peculiar force and
meaning to the English languages,
which althoughit may not be found in

There are some things in Mr.. Dick
EMS novels which we do not especial
ly admire. The attention he devotes
to the lower orders of English life,
and the peculiar charm he throws
around scenes of dehauchery and
drunkenness, are not calculated to
make vice of so hideous a mein as to
be Stunned, and in this particular we
wish they were different. But the
good in the books so far out
balances that which seems to US to
be vicious in its tendency, that we
think all who read them will ex-

Messrs. HURD & HoUGHToN de-

Of the English poets. Most of Mr..

these hymns the authors fame may
