of Warnes Shakespeare in England may be

Fifty Thousand copies was taken up immed-
lately upon publication, and that the second
edition, also OF Fifty Thousand, is now near

save space by running in the Dialogues
The page is therefore clear, open, distinct,
and perfectly legible.

The War Between the States,
ITS CAUSES, CHARACTER, CONDUCT
AND RESULTS

BY HON. ALEXANDER II. STEPHENS,
It's THE TITLE of Work just issued by
L THE NATIONAL PUBLISHING COM
PANY, Philadelphia.
Histories Of the late Civil War have sprung
I'D like mushrooms, and they can now be
numbered almost by hundreds, but all who
are DESTROYS of arriving at a correct UNDER
standing of the causes, and clear history
of the events of the late lamentable war,
have felt the want of q reliable history of the
same from Southern standpoint by some
representative man of the South. This want
is about to be supplied by Alexander Fl.
Stephens. Mr.. Stephens was a most earnest
protestant against rebellion, and only sue
cumbed at the last moment, when his State,
in spite Of his warning, committed the great
error.
The bare announcement that this distin-
euished Statesman had determined to write
book, would, of itself, be sufficient to
kindle lively and widespread interest in all
sections of this country; but when 1t Is
known that he has chosen as his theme the
one so fruitful as the late American War, the
absorbing interest Of the subject, together
with the evident and singular fitness of the
author for its treatment, unite in awakening
a curiosity entirely unparalleled in the annals
of American literature.
1t presents careful political analysis 81
the past, separating real from apparent eau
5eB OF the late unhappy oohiiict, anu Sife9
those interior lights and shadows Of the
GREAT WAR, only known to those HIGH
OFFICERS. who watched the tlood-tide OF
Revolution from its fountain-springs and
which were so accessible to Mir. Stephens
from his position as second officer of the
Confederacy.
To public that has been surfeited with
apparently similar productions, it presents a
change OF fare, both agreeable and salutary,
and an intellectual treat Of the highest or
der. The great American War has at last
found historian worthy Of its Importance,
and at whose hands it receives that mode
rate. candid and impartial treatment which
truth and justice so urgently demand.
This most valuable work is sold only by
subscription, and the publishers want al
