BOOK NOTICE.

LAUBE.--We have been presented
with this volume. The first one hun
dred pages are the liveliest picture Of
French domestic life we have ever seen.
The home farm, the vineyard, the abo-
riculture, the flowers, all the rich pros
ducts Of nature, portrayed graphically,
and naturally, spread before us scene
of such beauty and magnifcence, that
we all rejoiced in the prodisal maturity
with which nature presents her gifts to
the human mind, and lead us on to the
contemplation of tho works of the great
Creator. But who shall contemplate
the temptations which assail US? Who,
Of US all, shall say, 4 would not do 9TH
or wiser In this work comes the wife;
married to an American husband; not
at mature years; he In Paris leader Of
society; the immature, and not his
equal the perfdy of the American
transparent; the Innocence of the wife
confding and real 1t cannot be but
that untold misery must result.
1t comes in the shape Of reputation
of the wife and her progeny. For she
bears him one child. And this man--an
American we shame to say--denies both
wife and child, and, heartless man as he
is--desires to wed some rich BRIDE
who, he hopes, will repair his ruined
fortune, and PROVEN his riches, oblivion
of his crimes. We seek in vain in earth-
ly subterfuge our exemption from pun
ishment. God annexcs for all crimes its
suitable punishment. And so, in this,
the injured wife finds punishment of
her seducer and his crime. For she pur-
sues him to his end. Amid the ball,
revslry and wine; when arose the swell
of music; when hearts beat light; and
all was joy; celebrating second mar
riage, hallowed by church rites; sudden
ly appeared before him the girl he first
loved and married; and all sunk in
darkness and in night. This book can
b. had at Wilson & Wakes.
