A SOLDIERS SToRY.-Few books that have
ever been written can compare in thrilling
and painful interest with little volume issu-
ed by Lee & Shepard of Boston, and entitled
"The Soldiers Story of his Captivity at An
Jacksonville, Belle Isle, and Other Rebel Pris-
ons." Its author is Warren L. Goss, who was
a sergeant in the Mass Second Artillery, and
who writes in the simple straightforward
manner of soldier, the plain facts of what he
himself has seen and suffered. Taken prison
err at Savage Station, he endured all the hor-
rors Of Belle Isle, was exchanged, re-enlisted,
and was again made prisoner, and confined in
that den of horrors at Andersonville under
the charge of the fend Wirz. The picture he
draws of starvation, agony and death would
be too narrowing were it not frightened by
many trait of heroism and generous self-sac-
rifice, as well as of that indomitabe Yankee
pluck which could always put the best face
upon things, and that unquenchable Yankee
humor which could occasionally find the SOL
ace of laughter even in the midst of misery
such as the world has seldom seen. Never
should the sufferings of these men be forgot
ten while the country for whose sake they suf-
fered endures. This book should be read by
all, for it is we'll to keep alive the thoughts of
the sacrifices by which the nations cause was
won. 1t will certainly stir to the depths the
hearts OF all who lost brothers, sons, husbands
or friends in those terrible prisons.
The work is handsomely gotten up, and has
several very striking illustrations by Thomas
Mast. The agent for this city, Mr.. Ryan, is
himself disabled soldier, and has thus per-
sonal claim to the consideration of ALL

Mrs. MURRAY IN New YoRK-The N. Y.
Evening Post of Tuesday has the following
reference to lady whose talents and social &C.
complshments have secured her mapy adj
mrers in this city:
1t, is always pleasure TO welcome a new
conner into our artistic circle, and especially
so when, as in the case of Mrs Murray, her
works and her reputation as a water-colorist
have preceded her and prepared the way for
her introduction. Mrs. Murray has taken a
studio in the University building, directly be-
meath that of Mr. Edwin White, where, al
though her baggage had not on Saturday all
arrived, she has large collection of interest
years of residence and travel among the pic
turesque people to be found along the Mediter-
ranean, from Gibrater to Constantinope.-
Among them we noticed one of Dalmatian
sitting at a table in market and watching,
with look of intense humor, the utter be-
wilderment of Wallachian woman who is
looking for the first time in her life, in a small
mirror. The faces and the costumes are both
unique, and the latter especially rich in color
Another picture will represent nun in the
act of taking the vow. The scene is in the
Cathedral OF SEVILLE, and the young woman is
represented with arms extended and ewes
turned devoutly upward while she kneels and
performs her final conservation. The extreme
simplicity of her costume and the GOODNESS of
its color bring into stronger relief the rich
brunette and olive of her full, oval face, and
her large, lustrous eyes. Mrs. Murray retains
a few of her larger and finished water-color
lRsl1rctnres, of which THE Eleventh Hour" and
ne Detected Cheat" are the best known.

THE French CANADIAN CoNvENr1o,

THE FFENCH CANADIAN CONVENTION. -
Mr.. j. b. Paradis, secretary of the Execu-

tional Convention, lately held at Springfield,
writes to the New York Times to correct a
statement in regard to the doings of that body
which was telegraphed all over the country
The telegram states that the Convention
adopted resolutions, first, in condemnation of
the British American Confederation; second
in approval of the conduct of Nova Scotia in
her resistance to the wishes of the Crown:
third, recommending Canada to adopt re-
publican form of government, and other prop
ositions of the same nature. Mr.. Parads saws
the truth is simply that resolutions similar to
those above mentioned were presented in the
but they were unanimously voted
down. He adds that the Convention was in
no respect of a political character. Its only
object was to promote the interests of the st
Jean Baptiste societies in this country, and
to effect union among them ALL
