NEW BOOKS.

Messrs. West and Johnston Of Rich,
mond, furnish us with the following
books just published by Harper ant
Bros, of New York.
Hartwig's Polar World. The Pola,
World: Popular Description ofMar
and Nature in the Arctic and A ntarc.
tic and Regions of the Globe, b,
'Dr. @. Hartwig, Author OF "The Sc,
aud its Living Wonders" "The Har.
monies of Nature" and "The Tropi.
cal World" With Additional Chan
tiers and16S Illustrations. Syo. Cloth
1870.
BY far the most complete and inter-
esting account of the polar world, in
GLIDING lboth the arctic and antarctic
circles, which has been issued from any
American press. 1t is profusely and
in parts elegantly illustrated. Dr..
Hartwig has neglected few points OF in
terest, and these few DIR. Guernsey has
happily supplied. The work is emil
nentiy popular one, adapted alike to
young and old, but is peculiarly suited
to boys, for whom it would be hard to
lind better Christmas present. The
book is a timely one, inasmuch as it
furnishes ample palladium to the newly
awakened interest in Polar matters,
which the theories of Capt. Bent and
Prof. Maury, in regard to Northwest
passage, have developed in the public
mind.
The Romance of Spanish History. BY
John 5. g. Abbott, Author of 1.-THE
Ere nch Revolution" 1.-The History
OF Napoleon Bonaparte," &c, With
Illustrations. 12mo, Cloth, $500.
Combining himsclfto the dramatic in
cldents of Spanish history, Mr. Abbott
gives us in few well-wrltten pages a
lively picture of one of the most re-
nations on earth. The Moors,
the Cid, Columbus, Ferdinand and Isa-
bella, are all here, and their story new
err fails TO charm, This also is good
book for boys.
Waddell's Greek Grammar. A Greek
Grammar for Beginners. By WIN.
Henry WaddeE, Professor of nciept
Languages in the University Of Geor-
gia. limo, Cloth, 81 90.
We are hardly competent to pass upon
his book, but, from such examination
IS we have been able to give, it appears
o us to be very clear, very concise and
admirably arranged. Certainly it is
much more comprehensive than the
,rammers of former days. 1t is beau
fully printed.

THE LATE swIYDBrEa OPERATION
FURTHER PARTIcULARs.-some days since
We gave the doiDgs Of Tot ofswindlers
who were operating simultaneously in this
tcity and in Wilmington, N. C. It will be
remembered that they passed draft on
some persons in Wilmington for 81 ,76O, and
one on Messrs. William M: Sutton s. Co., OF
this city, for 2,540. = saZ
We learn from one Of the firm Of McKim
4 Brothers, Of Baltimore, by whose house
these drafts purport to have been drawn,
that they are genuine except as to the
amount. Itseems that the expert swindlers
had removed the ink from the face Of the
drafts, and altered them-the one passed
in Wilmington from s22 40 to sl,760 .(the
amount DRAWN, and the one passed in this
city from s33.70. This latter draft was
made payable to the order Of Harper
Brothers, Of New York.
We learn that Messrs. Duncan, Sherman
& Co., on whom these drafts were drawn,
paid that Of SLIGO without any suspicion
Of its being forgery, and would probably
have paid the other had it gone on before
the question Of its genuineness was raised.

CHARGED WITH PoCKET-P PICKING. "A
youth named Albert Reid was arraigned
before the Mayor yesterday morning for
picking the pocket of Captain Charles H.
Epps of a gold watch-cbain, and of being
drunk and disorderly at the Academy OF
Music. Reid, as was shown, went to the
Academy of Music Wednesday night, and
while there created such disturbance that
Captain Epps ordered him out. He re-
sisted, and in struggle which ensued
Reid jerked Captain Epps's watch-chain
off, throwing the watch in the middle Of the
street, where it was subsequently found.
Upon searching Reid the chain was found
in his pocket. This dodge Of engaging in
struggle with man in order to rob him
is very common one, and but for Reid's
awkwardness Captain Epps might have
been loser by about eighty dollars. Reid
was sent on to answer Indictment.
