Iyatt, is the tenth volume Of Appleton's MY
cent edition of Maryatt's works In tais
story the author. gives version OF the
famous legend Of the "Flyipg Dutchman,'
which to lovers OF the marvellous will lose
nothing of its interest from his manner Of
telliDgit.
"Fiye Weeks in a Balloon is de,igned as q
satire on English works Of African travel, bat
while the mode Of looomotion and the amusing
adventures are of course imaginary, the desorip-
tions Of the geography, scenery, inhabitants,
animals, and features of the countries ira
yelled over are vouched for as being strictly
accurate. The work is very entertaining and
many of its hits will be appreciated by those
who have perused the tales OF genuine ira
veIlers in the centre of Africa.
Prom Turner Brothers & Co. we have re-
ceived 'Planchette or, The Despair of Sci
enoe, the third issue of the s'Hsndy Volume,,
series in course of publication by Roberts
Brothers. The mysterious little toy that
created so much excitement in social circles
some months ago scarcely does more than
give name to this treatise, which is full
and comprehensive account Of modern spirit
ualism, its phenomena, and the various theo-
ries regarding it, with survey OF French
spiritism. The author evidently has full
faith in all that he sets forth, and his tone is
rather querulous towards those whose bump
of credulity is not as large as his own. The
work is prepared with care, however, and IL
will be read with interest by those who have
perplexed themselves over the why and
wherefore of the so-oalled spiritual pheno-
meDa. The volume is nicely printed, and
very prettily bound in green cloth.
From the same house we have received
"The Study of Languages Brought Back to
its True Principles; or, The Art Of Thinking
in Foreign Language" by c. Marcel. Pub
lished by d. Appleton & Co. This work is
not textbook, but a manual showing the
authors m ethod OF learning foreign languages.
II is generally conceded now that the old
fashioned method of teaching languages by
the means of the grammar was a mistake,
and that it is better to learn the language
first and the science of it afterwards. The
method of M. Marcel seems to be well adapted
for the easy and thorough comprehension of
foreign languages, both as printed and
spoken, and we recommend the manual to
those who are interested in the subject.
-Messrs. Turner Brothers & Co. also send us
Common Sense" the third issue of the
library of select novels, and through them we
have received the weekly numbers of Our
Boys and Girls, Oliver Optics magazine, from
January l. 1869. Published by Lee & Shepard,
Boston. This magazine is filled with an at
tractive variety of stories, sketches, games,
and other matters of interest to boys and
girls. 1t is well illustrated, aud is published
at 50 so per year.
From T. B. Peterson & Bros, we have
received "Anne of Geierstein' and "The Fair
Maid of Perth" two numbers of their
twenty cent edition of the Waverley Novels.

MOONS HINE.

~ JUCY bARcoB.
wbo,,, Bearfh and Home.
The baby sat in the moonshine,
A silver square on the floor,
Shaped by the epen window,
And its halo dim he wore.
II turned his hair TO spun silver,
His robe into folds Of pearl
Yet IL was but linen night-gown,
A tangle OF haxen curl.
He was there at play, white nesting,
A moment before he slept;
And he patted and kissed the moonbeams,
And, cooling, across them orept.
"Bring us the moonshine, baby -
Quick sprsng the little feet,
Scoopipg Il up by lapfuls,
Hurried the fngers sweet,
70 bring us invisible treasure;
He saw 1t, bright and plain;
Never doubted the baby
Ours was real gain.
Firmly we also believed it,
For, after he was asleep,
We had his moonlit picture
Always our own to keep.
"A has not grown old or faded,
II will not, il never can;
We shall have IL still to look at
When he is a bearded man.
II then he should win great riches,
He cannot bestow a gift
So rare as the one he brought us
Out Of the moonshine's drift.
Nav he never lose faith in moonshine,
The one that glimmers and streams
From the mountain -clefts OF beauty,
Afar in the world Of dreams
Right royalty may he scatter
The wealth of the b0undless skies
The fine gold and sheeny silver
From the mines of Paradise

"All of a sudden the fair girl
continued to sit on the sand,
gazing upon the briny deep,
on whose heaving bosom the
tall ships went merrily by,
freighted-ah! who can tell
with how much of joy and sor-
