SHOM.

Our people will please bear in
mind that ON next Wednesday Van
Amburg & Cos. Great Menagerie
will exhibit in Millersburg. This
is not circus show, but purely an
imal. Quite number of new ami
mails have been added which make it
one of the best, if not the best trav-
cling show in the country. Don't
fail to see the animals. The great
objection to shows in general, with
many people, is the presence of the
circus also. There will be no cir
Gus performance.

lttempted Suicide.

The quiet town of Winesburg had its
repose somewhat stirred on last Thurs
day by the announcement that one of
its occupants had cut his throat. Charles
Authenreith wishing to put an end to
his existence took razor and went out
to the back part of his lot and made a
cut on either side of the neck, and one
on his wrist. He was carried into the
house and his wounds dressed and is
fast recovering; on Sunday he was able
to walk around. Whisky was the cause
of it all. When will people learn to let
the fiery serpent alone?

The Home Of Washington.

For nearly quarter of century past,
Benson J. LOSING, the artist-author of
"Field Book of the Revolution" "His-
tory of the United States" etc, has been
one of the most diligent and successful
laborers in the rich field Of American
history. During that time he has trav-
eled more than thirty thousand miles,
extending to almost every portion of the
Union, in order to procure sketches of
various scenes and objects of historic
interest; for it is good fortune to be
equally happy in the use of both pen and
pencil.
Attractive and popular though all his
works have been, Mr.. Lossing's latest
volume is justly considered the crown
ing success of bis life. Its title is as fol-
lows :" The HOME OF WASHINGTON or,
Mount Vernon and Its Associations,
Historical, Biographical and Pictorial" !"
1t is a subscription book, being sold
through agents entirely. A copy now
lies upon our table, from that enterpris-
ing firm, E. Hannaford & Co., liz West
Fourth ST., Cincinnati.
No more beautiful book has gladdened
our eyes for many months, than this
shapely quarto, painted on superfine and
elegantly-tinted paper, and gotten up
in the highest style of the topographic
art. A steel-plate portrait, from the
celebrated painting of Gilbert Stuart,
and an engraving of Mount Vernon,
also on steel embelish the front of the
book while the text Of the work is Illus
trated with no less than one hundred
and forty-eight of Lossing's charming
pictures, fac stmiles of interesting MSS,
etc. The binding is both elegant and
substantial.
"The Home of Washington is I'M
doubtedly the most complete, satisfac-
tory and delightful record ever prepared
of the domestic and private life of "The
Father ofhis Country" Every American
is, of course, familiar with the General,
the Statesman, and the President, but
this work reveals to us the Man, in all
the dignity and beauty of his personal
character. 1t also furnishes a great
amount of fresh and interesting matter,
not attainable from any other source,
and is the only work eXtant describing
fully the condition, past and present, of
Mount Vernon. Many Of the illustra-
tions describe articles of which the orig
inals are now lost to the world forever
swept ruthlessly away by the storms of
civil war.
The publishers. announce large and
rapidly increasing circulation of this de-
lightful volume. We are not surprised
at this. Its national character, the
reputation of its artist-author, and its
low price, together with the unexcelled
beauty of its mechanical execution and
its perfect wealth of illustrations, are
all calculated to make it one of the most
popular and rapidly-selling books of the
age. We commend this .shousehold
treasure" to the attention of our readers,
whether book agents or book buyers.
E. Hannaford & Co., the Cincinnati pub
fishers, are firm who publish only first
class works, and equip their agents in
the very best style.

Financial Affairs in Europe.

II will be seen by our correspondence from
London published in another part of the
HERALD that bull and bear operations on
lations and other like gambling dongs are not
confined to this side of the Atlantic. We
rather think London is ahead of New York in
this respect. In fact, our financial s'opera-
tors" appear to get their lessons from those of
England. Money accumulates in the Bank Of
England, and, as may be seen by the European
kilograms, it continues to accumulate largely
in the Bank Of France also. At the same time
there is great distress in England and stagna-
ton in legitimate business. IT is natural,
therefore, that when there s such an accumu.
lation Of money and little legitimate business
for its employment, there should be q tendency
to speculation. Still the Bank OF England
keeps the screws on pretty tight, and, conse-
quently, our correspondent says, the public
complain of the indifference and monopoly Of
that institution. The Banks of England and
France hold together about two hundred and
fifty millions of dollars in specie. While Eng
lish railroad and other stocks and bonds have
fallen many Of those Of the United States, and
particularly United States government secu-
rites, are rising. The demand for these latter
continues active. But the English sharehold-
ers in the Erie Railroad and those interested
in the Atlantic and Great Western are not sat
isfied with.the appearance of things. The let
ter Of our correspondent throws light on these
and other snch matters and we recommend
American financiers and stock spectators to
read il for themselves.

The Approaching Trial q. Tours.

Preparations are DOW being vigorously
made for the trial Of Prince Pierre Bonaparte
Ut Tours, before the High Court Of Justice
the highest courL which France knows, and
the only court which, in the case of so high a
parsonage, can take cognizance of such an
offence. Tours is large and fourishing city
and the principal place in Tourane. It ia
finely situated on the banks of the Loire, con-
tains some twenty thousand inhabitants,
and is one OF tho chief centres of the silk
trade. Tours is far enough from Paris 10
make it certain that the feelings Of the mob
win not have any effect on the fairness Of the
trial. Everything, indeed, gives us good
reason to believe that the Emperor is resolved
TO see Justice take its course. Henri Roche
fort is to be taken to Tours as a witness against
the Prince. Considering that Rochefort is
State prisoner, IL is impossible to refuse to
admit that the Emperors conduct is mag
unanimous. The trial viii command large
amount Of interest, not in France only, but all
over Europe and the world, and it will exercise
the best talent Of the empirA. But we have no
doubt as to the result. Tours will be gay on
the occasion. Beauty and talent will crowd
the Judgment ball; bnt when all il over we
shall be surprised if The Emperor has not con-
vnced the French people Of the honesty and
sincerity OF his intentions.
