MISS OLIVE LoGAN's New BaoK.-We
have been favored by Messrs. Parmelee &
Co., publishers, with advanced sheets of n
new and popular work Of intense interest,
by the noted and talented Reformed Ac-
tress, Olive Logan. 1t is evidently her mas
ter piece. and is at once a chaste, moral,
heightened and truthful picture OF the SUBJ
ject indicated by the title, ''Before the Foot
lights and Behind the Scenes The work
is scathing onslaught on the immoralities
of the playhouse and kindred temptations,
hy one who has been brought up from
child amid the scenes so wildly described.
The work takes in the whole range OF
what is technically known as the 'Show
Business )" which embraces the Opera,
Theatre, Museum, Concert, Circus, Menag.
erie, Caravan, Lecture, Street Shows, and
every thing which has an admission fee.
No one could De more competent TO reveal
practical workings of the Show World, than
Olive logan. She is to the manor born.
Her father was an actor. her sisters, five of
them we believe, and her brothers rs well
as herself. were reared III the atmosphere of
the Green Room. How hard to tear asun.
der such lifelong associations! The &C.
tress who has the courage to break through
professional etiquette, and turn her b. ok
upon her old pursuit. has rare nerve. De-
termination or pluck in any form, is always
admired but especially in woman strug.
Cling towards the right. We believe Mss
Logan, has taken a long step in the right
direction. Her book is bound to sell i'm
mensely; the better class of community sym
pathize with her, and will encourage and
sustain her in every step she tukes to purify
the Drama. She is one of the most bri!-
liant writer's in the land. The N Y. Citi-
zen says she never wrote dull line in her
life. and could not write one if she tried
which is probably true, as the spec men be.
fore us can hardly be excel.ed. The clos
ing paragr phi OF her irst chapter says:
"Whatever faults these pages may exhb-
it. one virtue / am determined lhev shall
possess-the virtue of truthful ess. For
the truth is the one ing in the world of lit
erature which is the rarest. Of critically
excellent books, of entertain g book OF
looks which do credit to the intellectual
powers of their producers. the world has no
lack but of books which tell the straight
forward truth, there have new er been enough.
| take it, for the worlds GOOD"
While we may not endorse all she may
say, we believe that the work if carried out
as indicated in the advanced sheets, will do
great service to Morality, and shed light on
a subject, now impprfec,ly understood.
The work is beautifully gotten up on tint
ed paper, and in the best style of typogra-
ply, profusely illustrated with over 80 full
page spirited engravirgs, besides steel
plate of the author, which, by the by, is one
of the best specimens of steel engraving we
ever saw. 1t requires no foresight to see
that the work will meet a very rapid and
immense sale.

TRADE AND CREDIr.- he following from
Nazyo's Weeh!y will be recognized as
truthful picture of the situation aud should,
for the interest of all concerned, farmer as

cures thu farmer through the summer. anu
IN busing his goods, calculates that during
the month of October, all grain will be sold,
aud he will get his money, and so arranges
to pay for what he buys of the wholesale
merchant.
October comes, wheat brings eighty to
ninety cents; farmer says, be cannot sell
tor any such price, i, has COS: HIM more

Merchan, has made promises to pay his
debts, n, knows that he mu.t pay Or have
his credit impaired, and urges farmer to sell
enough to at least pay him. Farmer says
lie Cannot do it. Merchant says, he must
sue him, aud try what law can do to Civ
him his honest aud just dues. Farmer says
he might have bought of merchants COM

all the individual troubles attendant for the
sake of saring has trade.
Now surprising another plan was to be
adopted. In almost every small town each
merchant Will lose a certain number of Gus
